Arena: Stanislas Town (Normal Mode)
This small town between Dendemille Town and Anistar City hosts a peculiar festival every year during October. The paved streets are rather narrow, giving it an eerie allure... Ornemental lanterns, carved pumpkins and decorated facades are the theater of your battles. Some passerbys even watch you from time to time, cheering on you to continue your night of trick-or-treating and sometimes trying to distract the Pokémon with candy.
- Camouflage: Rock-type
- Nature Power: Steamroller
- Secret Power: 30% chance of Phazing.
Wave Structure
- Enemies are fought in consecutive battles where all battle status carries forward between battles. Screens, hazards, weather, temporary status, and so on. Each set of enemies is called a Wave.
- The first two waves are Early, the third and fourth are Middle, and the fifth wave onward are Late.
- Every odd-numbered wave has two random appropriate opponents; every even-numbered wave has three.
- The same opponent can occur multiple times in the same challenge, or even the same wave.
- If an opponent pivots or is phazed, they are sent to the next wave. They will appear in that wave with their HP and Major status left intact.
- On wave 5, one of the three opponents is always the Harvest King.
Opponent Behavior
Opponents will act according to a pre-determined behavior list, as follows.
- Opponents have six pre-made ordersets that they choose from semi-randomly.
- Opponents don't have, spend, or require Energy.
- When the ref is rolling orders for the opponents, they will use one of their special ordersets if their condition is met. They will use one of their ordinary ordersets if the condition is not met.
- Thus, rolling multiple dice out of 3 is sufficient to determine all opponents' ordersets.
- The opponents are desperate for the candy of the trick-or-treaters. Their Struggle has 9 BAP, does not inflict recoil, and targets a player Pokemon at random.
Opponents choose their targets for any single-target actions in their behaviors using a strict logic.
- Opponents will target the player Pokemon who ordered first, if their behavior doesn't further specify.
- This also applies if multiple Pokemon meet that opponent's behavior conditions. (e.g. "target a Burned opponent" and both players are Burned.)
- Taunt's unique status will redirect the subject's moves to the user for the duration, rather than prevent non-damaging moves.

A short, rather soft man trots towards you. He introduces himself as All Hallows' Steve, the avatar of Halloween cheer and definitely not the mayor of this small town.
"Ah, I see you are here for the festival! Truth be told, I have a favor to ask of you..."
Hallows' Steve draws closer, taking a more conspiratorial tone.
"A terrible being named the Harvest King is foreseen to come to the town this year. He's a vengeful spirit, wanting to ruin our trick-or-treating traditions! You look strong, could I perhaps ask you to protect the inhabitants and their righteously bought candy bags? Of course, you'd still have spare time to go trick-or-treating yourself!"
