' (The wild/foe's) 's Drizzle made it rain!' The battle interface during rain in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Event The thunderstorm overworld variation, which was purely aesthetic upon its introduction in Generation III, gained an in-battle effect in Pokémon Sword and Shield, where it is equivalent to rain and Electric Terrain applied at the same time. Heavy rain can be encountered in the overworld or created using Primordial Sea if the latter, it lasts until the summoner is removed from the field (and no other Pokémon with Primordial Sea remain on the field), the summoner is rotated out in a Rotation Battle, the summoner has Primordial Sea suppressed or replaced, or extremely harsh sunlight or strong winds are created by Desolate Land or Delta Stream, respectively. There is also a variation of rain called heavy rain (Japanese: 強い雨 strong rain). In Pokémon Sword and Shield, Max Geyser causes rain after dealing damage. If created using Drizzle (prior to Generation VI) or encountered in the overworld, it will last until replaced. It will last for five turns if created using Drizzle ( Generation VI onwards) or Rain Dance, or eight if created by a Pokémon holding a Damp Rock. It was introduced in battle in Generation II, and in the overworld in Generation III.
