Voltorb appears more often around certain places during particular weather in Pokemon GO
Voltorb is an Electric-type Pokemon and therefore is boosted by a particular weather pattern in Pokemon GO. During Rainy weather, the odds of this Pokemon spawning increase drastically.
Additionally, Electric-types have been noted to spawn more abundantly around certain locations. Players who look for Voltorb around industrial areas, college campuses, and commercial shopping buildings are more likely to find this Pokemon.
Players need to capture five Voltorbs in order to complete a particular task included in the Ultra Unlock Timed Research. Thankfully, Voltorb is not super rare in Pokemon GO and trainers should have no problem completing the task with plenty of time to spare.
Pokemon GO gamers have until Tuesday, August 3rd at 8:00 p.m. local time to complete the special Timed Research.
Best moveset for Voltorb in Pokemon GO
Since players will have to obtain multiple Voltorbs in Pokemon GO, they may as well know which ones have the best possible moveset. Having this information can help a POGO trainer when they decide which Voltorbs they should keep.
Voltorb's best moveset in Pokemon GO is the quick-move Spark paired with the charged-move, Thunderbolt. Of course, once a player racks up enough species candy to evolve their Voltorb into Electrode, they'll want the Pokemon to know the charged-move, Discharge.
Looking around the specific locations that Voltorb is notorious for spawning in, especially in Rainy weather, will give Pokemon GO trainers the best odds of encountering Voltorb.
