  • Ticketed Timed Research: Both a $1 and a $5 Timed Research ticket will be available in the shop. The former features more Yamask encounters, the latter features Candy bonuses, Halloween-themed tasks, and an avatar item. There isn't enough information here to make a call.
  • Event bonuses:
    • Double catch Candy, double Hatch Candy, double Transfer Candy
