Question

What do I do it doesn't show up?

Community Answer

Try saving the game and reloading it, this works for me all the time. If that doesn't work, make sure the time is 10 AM - 8 PM.

Question

If Drifloon isn't appearing in Pokemon, should I reset the game?

Community Answer

Just wait for it every Friday (but only if you defeat Team Galactic at the Valley Windworks).

Save and reload. If that doesn’t work, check the time and make sure it’s somewhere between 10 AM to 8 PM.

Question

At what level does Drifloon evolve to Drifblim?

Community Answer

It evolves into Drifblim at level 28. It doesn’t require any badges, just as long as it is in between 8AM and 10PM on a Friday. Also, team galactic and mars (the red hair girl) need to be beaten.

Question

Is the Drifloon shiny locked in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl?

Community Answer

No, but Drifloon encounters are rare, so finding a shiny version is even rarer.
