One of the aspects of Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield is the weather. Different conditions exist in the games, which impact the type of creatures you’ll encounter in the wild.
Thanks to AustinJohnPlays, we now have a better understanding of the different weather patterns in Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield. Here’s a chart showing the dates when it’ll be rainy, sunny, snowy, and more:
