The pseudogene file I downloaded from GeneCode looks like this:

How do I convert the gene_id (e.g PGOHUM00000289731) to HGNC symbols? Biomart and BioDBnet do not seem to offer this

You can probably download the complete HGNC dataset. Here the "pseudogene.org" column contains gene ids similar to your ones. You might want to write a small program to get corresponding hgnc symbols.
The answer did not point exactly to what I was looking for, but it is sufficient to get me there. The file I need to download is this one: ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/genenames/new/tsv/locus_groups/pseudogene.txt
