Pokémon GO’s sharp Community Day gets a preview, while Pokopia’s Halloween event reveals clever candy-collecting tricks. Pokémon Sleep serves up nuts, new recipes, Darkrai, and a mysterious fluffy Pokémon. A PHP security issue causes a major shutdown, Santa Cruz skateboards spark collecting talk, and Pokémon TCG Pocket unveils Dual Fusion, Mega Pokémon, ranked play, and anniversary events.

TCG Pocket rolls out major quality-of-life updates as its revenue is compared with rival mobile games. A new Team Rocket-themed hidden-role board game promises secret identities, gym control, and Pokémon cards.
