<p>Over the years, Pokemon Go has introduced various regional forms from the mainline titles, including the unique Poison/Fairy-type Galarian Weezing.
This well-known Pokemon received its Galarian variant when the Sword & Shield games were released, similar to the Alolan forms introduced in Generation 7. It features a new region-specific design and type.
Galarian Weezing stands out as a dual-type Poison/Fairy Pokemon, characterized by its unique appearance, reminiscent of both an English gentleman and a factory.
If you’re aiming to complete your Pokedex with this Poison/Fairy-type Pokemon, here’s everything you need to know to catch one in Niantic’s game.
How to Obtain Galarian Weezing in Pokemon Go
This toxic Pokemon can be challenging to find, as it doesn’t typically spawn in the wild. Currently, players can evolve Koffing into Galarian Weezing thanks to the Legendary Heroes event, which takes place from September 26 through October 1.
Generally, the only method to acquire Galarian Weezing in-game is by defeating it in 3-Star Raid battles. Therefore, players must await raid rotations or special events to catch one.
Previously, players could earn Galarian Weezing as a reward for completing Field Research Tasks like “Win 2 raids: Timeless Travels” or Special/Timed Research Tasks such as “Glittering Garde: Timed Research – 1st part: Hatch 2 Eggs” .
Is Galarian Weezing Shiny in Pokemon Go?
Yes, Shiny Galarian Weezing is available in Pokemon Go. The game introduced it during an August 2021 event. Unlike its original gray form, the Shiny version showcases a brownish body but continues to emit green smoke.
During the Ultra Space Wonders event, players will have increased chances of encountering a Shiny Galarian Weezing in 3-Star raid battles, so keep challenging this Pokemon until you find one.
How to Evolve Koffing into Galarian Weezing in Pokemon Go
In the mainline Pokemon games, Koffing evolved in the Galar region transforms into Galarian Weezing. However, in Pokemon Go, evolving any Koffing will always yield a regular Weezing.
Outside of special events, there is no method to evolve Koffing into Galarian Weezing in Pokemon Go; acquiring this regional variant is only possible through Raid battles.
During events that allow for evolution, all you need is 50 Koffing Candy—the same amount required to evolve Kantoian Weezing.
You will see Weezing’s silhouette or sprite before you evolve it, making it clear which version you will receive.
Remember that during the Legendary Heroes event, Koffing will only evolve into Galarian Weezing.
