I have been trying to create a spot instance Standard D2s v3 (2 vcpus, 8 GiB memory) VM in my MSDN Azure subscription. I have tried EastUS, EastUS2 and WestUS regions with the same result.

The requested size for resource '/subscriptions/xxxxx/resourceGroups/dnd/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/windowsvm' is currently not available in location 'eastus2' zones '' for subscription 'xxxxx'. Please try another size or deploy to a different location or zones. See https://aka.ms/azureskunotavailable for details.'.'. (Code: InvalidTemplateDeployment)

Most like you should open a ticket to Microsoft, I was not able to create a spot instance for MSDN Subcription neither, but I was for pay-as-you-go Subscription, I choose the same size, region etc. Alternately you can try to contact Microsoft Q&A specifically for Azure Spot (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/topics/azure-spot.html).
