What's your favorite and least favorite weather?

Mine's cloudy, because it boosts fighting types - good for gym takeover, and may spawn more fairy / poison / fighting stuff. Though clear weather's a close second, I like the more frequent vulpix, rhyhorn, and bulbasaur spawns around here. I don't like the partly cloudy one though, it fills my house with normals and not a rock in sight.

When I've experienced more of the kinds of weather, I'll be able to answer it. So far, because it's Winter here, I've had:

1) Partly Cloudy
2) Snowy
3) EXTREME WEATHER
4) EXTREME WEATHER
5) EXTREME WEATHER
6) EXTREME WEATHER
7) Windy

So far, Partly Cloudy and Windy have had the best results for me. A level 35 Ralts, a bunch of Level 35 Weedles and some Level 32+ Pidgeys, a Ditto and others. And more Ralts (caught 2, hatched 2 - both 10km eggs I've gotten since the new Weather system have been Ralts) and Makuhita (seen 4, caught 4 with Pinaps) than I expected.

I think the snowy one will just throw a bunch of Jynxes and Swinubs at me, and maybe a Magnemite or two. Which is why I do not look forward to it. Windy might bring some Dratinis but most likely it would just make me drown in pidgeys and spearows.

The snowy dumps lots of megnemites and sneasels on me, with less swinubs than is expected.

We've had some windy here and yet to see a dragon, but lots of abra and two ralts.

I'd take the Abras, I need an Alakazam with better moves.

The snow we had brought more skarmony than magnemites. But yeah mostly swinub for ice type.

I saw quite a few water types but it could have been since it was more of a wintry mix than actual snow.

My least favorite is windy because it gives every Pidgey, Spearow, and Natu around my area a weather boost, making them far more difficult to catch, which makes me expend more balls on them than I need to. I don't really have a favorite type of weather, but if I had to choose, maybe rain because it is aesthetically pleasing (especially at night), and Mudkip is nowhere to be found lol.

I get most of those boosted thanks to Partly Cloudy. Freaking boosted pidgey lines and spearows!
Caught a Mudkip due to rain, but they seem to pop up under normal circumstances too.

Oddly enough, I've seen Mudkip on nearby one time from a different type of weather. But, the couple of times I've gotten rainy weather, it hasn't exactly showed up in my area, which was a surprise to me.

Well I have one from day 1 of the gen 3 launch, but he's not good enough for evolving, I hope the rain brings more Mudkipz soon.

Yeah, same here. The Mudkip that appeared near me (not good IVs either) is currently my buddy. Hopefully, I can stock up on a couple of Mudkip candies before finding one with good IVs.

I should have buddied a Mudkip, but instead chose to do that with a Gulpin because I really want a Swalot entry. But at 1km per candy, shouldn't be too difficult.

You can have all my Gulpin. I am already sick of seeing them.

I'll take them! X))

As of right now, sunny/clear. Allowed me to catch 96 IV and level 25 Ho-Oh.

windy sux. no dragons whatsoever

It's raining here at the moment (or so it says in the game, but the weather forecast says it will rain today anyway). I see the kipz of the mud in the park nearby. Maybe one mudkip would spawn nearby too. I like catching those critters.

I think so far for me it's sunny. I've caught some ridiculous grasses already, but I think the weather is synergistic with my biome. But I've managed quite a few high level high iv grasses and am sort of feeling topped out since it's been sunny the last few days.

I'm hoping the weather changes soon so I can find out what else spawns around here. The day Gen 3 dropped we had snowy, rainy, cloudy, and partly cloudy changing hourly so it was hard to tell what was weather related and what was new release related.

If here's one thing of the Gen 3 that seems to be super common here, it's Minun. It doesn't care what weather we have. It's everywhere.

Anyone saying anything other than extreme weather is their least favorite hasn't been subjected to boring extreme weather. Any weather boost of any kind is better than nothing.

You're not wrong. It definitely is nice getting extra stardust from weather-boosted Pokémon, too.

The only times I could see extreme weather as a thing in Romania is if the blizzard strikes or ... basically the scorching heat we had during most of our summer, where you have to either have a really important reason to go outside, or be crazy and chase a freaking coconut pokemon raid that ended up being 100%IV.

Fav and only i had so far SUNNY
Worst EXTREME

I have only seen three of the weathers so far: clear, partly cloudy, and cloudy, but 90% it has been clear weather. Seedot is really the only spawn change in my area, other than commons like Zigzagoon and Poochyena, although I know I going to start getting tired of seeing Seedot everywhere real soon. Probably sunny weather has been my least favorite because how boring it is. I guess my favorite would be cloudy for increased fighting and fairy, still looking for a good Machop.
