Sliggoo not evolving in fog (Coral Ward)

[Illyasviel 1]

Sliggoo is supposed to evolve into Goodra at level 50 if there is rain or fog present in the overworld. However, it does not evolve in Coral Ward when it is foggy.

Everywhere else agrees only on Rain in overworld only so no using abilities or moves to make Goodra evolve sadly

Apparently in the Gen 7 games Fog is the trigger as there aren't any spots in those with natural rain. It could be a neat update, but not necessary since we have natural rain in reborn.

Thanks for the response. Sun/Moon does have nonstop rain outside Po Town (Route 17) where I evolved mine -- maybe fog was added to give more variety?

Totally forgot about outside of Po Town. Maybe so I'd imagine, after all it'd be pretty annoying to try to level up a Sliggoo even from 49 to level 50 on Route 17. Apparently, you should be able to evolve it in the Poni Meadow or the Ula'ula Meadow as well since it's always foggy there.
