* [[Weather]]-related marks in Pokémon Sword, Shield, Scarlet, and Violet are granted based on the weather where the player character was located when the Pokémon spawned. Consequently, it is possible for Pokémon to spawn with weather marks based on the weather in adjacent locations, if they were generated when the player was in an adjacent zone with different weather conditions. This can even allow Pokémon to have marks corresponding to weather that can never occur in the location in which they are found.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1432679749973913600 Weather Mark Location Crossovers by Anubis/Sibuna_Switch on Twitter]</ref>

** For example, in Pokémon Sword and Shield, Kantonian Sandshrew can only appear as {{pkmn2|wild}} Pokémon in [[Warm-Up Tunnel]], a location that can only have clear weather. Standing nearby in the [[Training Lowlands]] during [[rain]] can allow Sandshrew to spawn inside the tunnel with the Rainy Mark, despite the Sandshrew itself being located in an area with no weather.
