Pokemon Unite Halloween in Mer Stadium Event: A Complete Guide to Rewards and Missions

As the spooky season descends upon Aeos Island, Pokemon Unite players find themselves immersed in the festive atmosphere of the Halloween in Mer Stadium event. This limited-time celebration, though its original run concluded in late 2022, serves as a timeless blueprint for the game's annual Halloween festivities, showcasing how the developers blend thematic gameplay with rewarding challenges. The event transformed the iconic Mer Stadium into a haunted playground, complete with jack-o'-lanterns and eerie decorations, offering trainers a unique way to engage with the game. But what exactly did this event entail, and how could players maximize their harvest of Halloween goodies?

The heart of the event revolved around a special currency: Pumpkins. These were not just for decoration; they were the key to unlocking a treasure trove of Halloween-themed rewards. Players earned Pumpkins by completing various missions, primarily within the Halloween-themed Mer Stadium map. The event cleverly encouraged daily participation and skillful play, ensuring that both casual and dedicated trainers had paths to valuable loot. So, how did one go about collecting these Pumpkins and claiming the prizes?

🎃 The Pumpkin Harvest: Missions Breakdown

Earning Pumpkins was a multi-faceted endeavor, split into two main categories: Daily Missions and Repeatable Missions.

Daily Missions refreshed every 24 hours, presenting five specific tasks. Completing all five granted a total of 100 Pumpkins per day. These missions were designed to immerse players in the Halloween spirit:

• Participate in one Halloween in Mer Stadium battle.

• Win one Halloween in Mer Stadium battle.

• Put a pumpkin on a Pokemon's head five times.

• After putting pumpkins on them, hit them with a Pumpkin Tackle three times!

• Participate in one Halloween in Mer Stadium battle with a friend.

These tasks promoted teamwork, mastery of the event's unique mechanics (like the Pumpkin Tackle), and regular engagement with the special map.

Repeatable Missions, however, were the true grinders' paradise. With no daily limit, these missions offered a steady, endless stream of Pumpkins for those willing to keep battling. This was arguably the most effective method for ambitious trainers aiming for the highest reward tiers.

🎁 A Bounty of Rewards: What Could You Earn?

The reward structure was progressive and generous. Players did not spend their hard-earned Pumpkins; instead, rewards were unlocked automatically upon reaching cumulative Pumpkin milestones. This meant every Pumpkin collected counted permanently toward the next prize.

The reward ladder was extensive, stretching all the way to a whopping 10,000 Pumpkins. Here are some of the key milestones and prizes:

Cumulative Pumpkins Required	Reward(s)
50	50 Aeos Tickets, 5 Item Enhancers
200	One 7-Day Battle Point Boost Card, 50 Aeos Tickets
300	Costume Party Frame, 50 Aeos Tickets
500	Costume Party Background, 50 Aeos Tickets
700	One Energy Boost Tank, 50 Aeos Tickets
1,000	50 Aeos Tickets, Costume Party Sticker
1,400	One 7-Day Aeos Coin Boost Card, 50 Aeos Tickets
2,000	200 Aeos Tickets, Cinderace Mask (Halloween), 20 Item Enhancers
4,000	50 Aeos Tickets, Costume Party Sticker
10,000	50 Aeos Tickets, 5 Item Enhancers

The Cinderace Mask (Halloween) at 2,000 Pumpkins was a major cosmetic highlight, a coveted item for fans of the Scorbunny evolution. The consistent payout of Aeos Tickets and Item Enhancers at nearly every tier also provided a significant boost to players' progression resources.
