Weather Week is on its way to Pokemon GO, as Therian Forme Thundurus leaves stormy weather behind. Pokemon that enjoy rough weather conditions like rain and wind will be appearing more in the wild and in raids.

On March 24th at 10 am local time, Weather Week will start in Pokemon GO. The main idea of the event is Pokemon that enjoy rainy or windy weather conditions, as Therian Forme Thundurus leaves the raid rotation. One Therian Forme only means another will take its place though.

Storms may be gone, but Therian Forme Tornadus is taking the next spot in the raid rotation of Pokemon GO. As the name suggests, the Pokemon brings plenty of windy weather and is a Flying-type Pokemon. New tasks will be available, raid rotations will change, and different Pokemon will appear in the wild.
