The Biggest Pokemon GO Myths Busted (and One Confirmed)

So many rumors, are any true?

Thunderstorms Bring Electric Pokemon

Now this is a really popular one. With all of the highly coveted electric Pokemon, especially a certain legendary one named Zapdos, players have been looking for any direction on how to catch them. Many believe that waiting for a thunderstorm in your area will increase the probability of encountering an electric monster.

Unfortunately, this is a rumor that just doesn’t have any proof. Many Pokemon GO players have attempted to catch Pokemon under these conditions, some even daring to venture outside if they were out of Incense, but there has been no concrete proof that it makes any difference. It sounds cool in theory, but it was always known that locations would be based on geography, not weather. If this was true, it would be the first time people start wishing for firestorms; Moltres has to show up somehow, right?
