Alola has a warmer climate than other regions, being more tropical, similar to its [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Alola|real-world counterpart]] | Alola has a warmer climate than other regions, being more tropical, similar to its [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Alola|real-world counterpart]] of {{wp|Hawaii|Hawaii}}. For example, a [[Lush Jungle|thriving rainforest]] grows on [[Akala Island]]. The Pokémon themselves have also adapted to Alola's tropical atmosphere, the biggest example being the {{p|Exeggutor}} that grow on Poni Island, who have reached lengths other Exeggutor are unable to reach, due to the amount of sun that shines over the islands. These Exeggutor match the flora that grow on the islands. However, [[Mount Lanakila]], Alola's highest point, constantly experiences snow and {{weather|hail}} due to its high altitude. | ||
Each of the natural islands also experiences a wide variety of weather conditions. For example, [[Ula'ula Island]] hosts environments with harsh {{weather|sun}}, extreme {{weather|sandstorm}}s, and frequent {{weather|rain}}, in addition to the snow and hail on [[Mount Lanakila]]. [[Exeggutor Island]] is known to have common rain showers, as well, these often result in either rainbows during the day, or meteor showers during the night when the rain clears. | Each of the natural islands also experiences a wide variety of weather conditions.
