Starting on Thursday, March 14, 2024, and ending on Monday, March 18, 2024, there are still several days left in order to collect your in-game rewards.

As the name suggests, Weather Week changes what is available in Pokémon Go based on the weather in the real world.

Paras, Drifloon, Helioptile, Amaura and Lickitung will be more common than usual, no matter what the weather is like.

Other weather types will make different Pokémon more common, like sunny weather will make more Cacnea more common.

Cloudy weather spawns Spritzee, partly cloudy spawns Roggenrola, wind spawns Swablu, fog spawns Gastly, rain spawns Lotad, and snow spawns Snover.

Different Pokémon will also appear in raids, from one-star all the way to five-star raids.

Poliwhirl, Gastly, Hippopotas, and Amaura will appear in one-star raids, while Charizard, Lickitung, and Drampa will appear in three-star raids.

Regice is the boss of the highest level five-star raids, while Mega Tyranitar will show up in mega raids.

There will also be Field Research Tasks available throughout the week giving you a chance to encounter Paras, Drifloon, Helioptile, Amaura, and every Castform type.

Different collection challenges are also available, as well as new Pokéstop Showcases.

Throughout the week, if you catch Pokémon with a weather boost, you will earn extra Stardust, and you will get twice as much Stardust for catching Pokémon.

There is also an increased chance of encountering a Shiny Castform.
