Why does smoke come out of PokéStops in Pokémon GO?
Smoke appears at PokéStops in Pokémon GO because of the "Color Festival" event.

"Megachalem" and "Hagi Gishiri" will make their first appearance at this event.
Smoke is one of the special colors and effects of this event; the presence of smoke does not mean that there is anything special about it.

The first was held in March 2022, so if you started recently, you may not know about it.
