PokeBonk Halloween Rewards: Lavender Tower Event Guide & Candle Tiers

The PokéBonk Halloween event, officially known as Lavender Tower Night, offers players a chance to earn exclusive themed cosmetics, titles, and currency through the Book of Candles progression system. By clearing floors, defeating waves of ghosts, and managing floor offerings, participants accumulate Candles toward ten distinct milestone rewards ending at 2,500 Candles.

The event overview features several core tabs:

• Play: Jump straight into tower runs.
• Book of Candles: Track cumulative Candle progression and claim milestones.
• Achievements: View event-specific challenges and completion markers.
• Leaderboard: Check competitive tower rankings.
• Prizes: Preview available cosmetic items and rewards.

Your current Candle counter and best floor record are displayed directly on the main overview before choosing Enter the Tower.

Event Schedule and Timeline

The Lavender Tower Night event commenced alongside Season 2 on October 21, 2026, at 16:30 UTC. The official announcement scheduled the event to run through November 4, 2026, at 17:30 UTC (or November 5 at 01:30 UTC+8). Players planning their final runs were advised to adhere strictly to the stated UTC endpoint rather than estimating an exact 336-hour window, accommodating regional daylight saving time changes.

Lavender Tower Gameplay Guidelines

Surviving the Lavender Tower requires attention to specific floor mechanics and strategy instructions outlined in the event overview:

1. Clear Waves: Defeat three wave encounters on each floor to unlock the stairs leading higher.
2. Silph Scope Pulse: Use the Silph Scope pulse to reveal unidentified ghosts, which otherwise take heavily reduced damage.
3. Illumination: Light candles to see in the dark, and check Gengar’s tombstones for hidden tricks or treats.
4. Offerings: Choose an Offering on every floor. Instructions place Marowak on floor 6 and Gengar at the top.
5. Floors of the Beyond: After completing the main tower, players can continue into endless floors where accepting curses increases Candle yields.

Bug fixes introduced in versions v0.8.14 through v0.8.17 addressed issues such as walking through stairs, invisible walls, Meowth blocking paths, and reward claims failing on slow connections.

Book of Candles Reward Tiers

Every tower run earns Candles, with higher yields granted in event mode compared to other game modes. The progress track scales up to 2,500 Candles, unlocking ten exclusive event reward tiers:

Players should verify that their Book of Candles claims register correctly, separating leaderboard records from actual prize claims.

Subsequent Game Updates

Following the conclusion of the Halloween event, PokéBonk rolled out subsequent patches entering November 2026, including the Season 3 update at version v0.9.10 on November 5, followed by the v0.9.17 and v0.9.20 updates featuring treasure wheels, build copying, and rental access.
