"Theory: Wild Pokémons spawn with two set of IVs, normal and weather-boosted"


#PokemonGO: My friend caught a wild Ralts (ATK/DEF/STA=15/12/15 lv25) when it spawned during cloudy weather. I rushed there but the weather has changed to windy. During my catch screen, it had the same CP and the windy weather icon. Even though the weather has changed, I was still able to catch the same IV+level Ralts (15/12/15 lv25). Either the IV and level re-rolled to the same numbers, or the Ralts has kept its "boosted" stats.My theory hypothesis is that all wild Pokémons have two set of stats when they spawn:normalweather boostedWhen a Pokémon spawn, the current weather determines the encountered IV and level. If the weather matches one of the Pokémon type, then the boosted IV+level is applied, or else, normal IV+level is applied. My windy Ralts still had the same IV+level as cloudy Ralts because Ralts has two types: fairy and psychic. Fairy is boosted by cloudy weather, and psychic is boosted by windy weather.Either that, or IV+level re-rolled to the same figures with chance of 0.0019%.0.0019% = 1/123 (for boosted ATK/DEF/STA ranging 4-15) * 1/30 (for level ranging 5-35)This could imply that if very Extreme conditions re-roll the IVs, the IVs could roll back when Extreme conditions go away.EDIT: A better explanation on why Ralts stayed the same in the comment below via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2C8ZvMu
