Many Aniimo can only be encountered at certain times of day or under specific weather conditions in Aniimo, so you may be struggling to find them without altering these key features. The main storyline teaches you how to change time, but not weather.

This is an important gameplay mechanic to master if you’re on the hunt for a specific Aniimo, and especially useful if you’re looking for creatures you may not have encountered yet, as weather changes are generally a bit rare. If you’re struggling to make it happen, here’s how to change the weather in Aniimo.

Can you change the weather in Aniimo?

Yes, you can change the weather in Aniimo. It’s not a feature that’s available to you right away, but it does unlock fairly early on in the main storyline. And depending on what you want to use it for, there are a few different ways you can alter the weather.

All ways to change the weather in Aniimo

As of the time of writing, there are four ways to change the weather in Aniimo. Here’s a breakdown of how to apply each one and what the differences between them are.

This guide is a work in progress and is receiving live updates with additional details. Refresh to see the latest additions.

  • One way you can change the weather is by interacting with the Breezy Plains Branch. To use this feature, you first need to spend a total of 60 Lumin Ambers. Once you’ve done so, you can select the Change Weather option in the bottom-left corner, choose the biome you want to change, select your desired weather, and spend a Prismana Crystal to apply the effects.
    • As of the time of writing, this feature isn’t fully unlocked. Most of the weather options listed are unavailable. It’s unclear why they aren’t available to use yet, or when they’ll be added. As soon as they are, though, this method will be the best one for altering the weather.
  • Another way you can change the weather is by visiting another player’s world. This method isn’t guaranteed, but upon traveling to another player’s world, you may find different weather conditions there.
  • If you only want to change the weather for photos, you can use photo mode to change the weather. This effect doesn’t actually change the weather, but instead activates the effects temporarily in this mode so you can snap some photos. The weather tab is the sixth one over and has a cloud icon on it.
  • If all else fails, the fourth and final way to change the weather is simply waiting for it to change naturally.
