When do Ghost Pokemon spawn in Pokemon Go is a question stumping many Pokemon Go fans. The Ghost-type Pokemon are one of the hardest Pokemon types to find, but there are various ways to catch them.

When do Ghost Pokemon Spawn in Pokemon Go?

The easiest way to catch a Ghost Pokemon is to start your search at night, typically between the hours of 8 p.m. and 8 a.m. in your local time. The peak of a Ghost Pokemon spawn is around 2 a.m., so if you want to increase your chances, go out after dark.

If you are someone who can't go out after dark, try your luck in Raids. Although the Pokemon available in Raids are constantly changing, often times, you will stumble upon a regular spawning Ghost Pokemon that can be battled out in solos or with online friends. It also won't hurt you to conduct and complete Field Research tasks or find a Ghost-type nest.

Ghost Pokemon also love foggy weather. The in-game weather system corresponds with your real-time weather and will temporarily increase the spawns on certain Pokemon depending on what the weather is like. This means, if you live in a place that has relatively foggy weather, your odds of catching a Ghost Pokemon have improved slightly.
