Using moves like, sunny day, rain dance, and hail affects 3×3 chunk radius around the pokemon that used the move. Allowing players to be able to catch some Pokemon that only spawn in certain weather conditions!
Right now it’s not possible to choose to use a specific attack during an interaction. Instead of adding a support for this just to get weather effects I’m thinking about doing something like this:
For pokemon of certain types: water, fire, …other?
If targeting a beaconduring an interaction
Then apply type-specific weather effect (clear for fire, rain for water, etc)

The beacon idea is actually pretty great! Beacons have that range restriction so that other people won’t have to wait for rain/hog the weather.
