Overview
Weezing is a Poison-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Poison Gas Pokemon (Dex #039). Like Koffing, Weezing has the Recycle specialty, which lets it convert nonburnable garbage into Iron Ore. It does not teach Ditto any ability.
The Pokedex entry for Weezing notes that "top-grade perfume is made using its internal poison gases by diluting them to the highest level." Weezing is unique among these Pokemon in that it can be found in two different habitats: the Good Old-Fashioned Antiques habitat and the Trash Collection Site. In the Pokopia Pokedex, Weezing (#039) follows Koffing (#038) and precedes Tangela (#040).
Since Pokemon do not evolve in Pokopia, Weezing must be befriended separately from Koffing. Each appears through its own habitat encounters.
Habitats
Weezing can appear in two different habitats, giving players more options for encountering it:
Good Old-Fashioned Antiques (#048)
The habitat description reads: "Enjoy the retro vibe of this collection of wonderful antique furniture!" This habitat is only available in Palette Town and Cloud Island.
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Antique Closet | 1 | Antique furniture obtained through crafting or exploration |
Antique Bed | 1 | Antique furniture item |
Antique Dresser | 1 | Antique furniture item |
Antique Chair | 1 | Antique furniture item |
Weezing spawns at Common rarity in this habitat. Snorlax also appears here at Common rarity.
Trash Collection Site (#063)
Weezing also appears in the Trash Collection Site habitat, the same one where Koffing is found. However, Weezing is a Rare spawn here, making the Good Old-Fashioned Antiques habitat a more reliable option if you are specifically looking for Weezing.
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Waste Bin (any) | 1 | Any waste bin or trash can |
Sign (any) | 1 | Any sign variant |
Garbage Bags | 1 | Produced by Litter specialty Pokemon |
Location
Weezing is primarily found in Palette Town and Cloud Island. It appears at any time of day and in any weather condition. Unlike many other Pokemon that span all six regions, Weezing's availability is limited to these two locations.
Specialty: Recycle
Weezing has the Recycle specialty. Just like Koffing, Weezing can process nonburnable garbage into Iron Ore. Present nonburnable garbage to Weezing and wait for it to finish processing. The output is always Iron Ore, regardless of the type of garbage submitted.
Having both Koffing and Weezing with the Recycle specialty lets you process garbage faster by running two recycling stations simultaneously. This is especially useful when you need large quantities of Iron Ore for mid-to-late game crafting and construction.

Tips
The Good Old-Fashioned Antiques habitat is the easier route to befriending Weezing, since it spawns at Common rarity there. The Trash Collection Site makes Weezing a Rare spawn with three other competing Pokemon.
Weezing and Koffing share identical preferences (Dark environment, bitter flavors, same liked items). If you house them together, a single set of decorations works for both.
Weezing is only available in Palette Town and Cloud Island, so you will need to unlock one of these areas before you can build its habitat.
Pair Weezing with a Litter Pokemon for a continuous garbage-to-Iron Ore pipeline. This combination is one of the most efficient ways to farm crafting materials.
Decorate Weezing's area with garbage-themed items, soft objects, complicated decorations, and wobbly items to boost its Comfort Level.
