On Smogon's Movedex:

Weather Ball (Japanese: ウェザーボール Weather Ball) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation III. Prior to Generation IV, it was the signature move of Castform.

Effect

When the weather is clear, Weather Ball is a Normal-type move. During any type of weather, Weather Ball's power doubles to 100 (type power-ups from the weather will be put into effect in addition to this boost).

Weather Ball's type changes depending on the weather at the time it is used.

Fire-type if it is sunny.
Water-type if it is raining.
Ice-type if it is hailing.
Rock-type if there is a sandstorm.
Normal-type if it is foggy, if there are strong winds, or there is no special weather condition in effect.
???-type if there is a shadowy aura.

Weather Ball is unaffected by Normalize, Pixilate, Refrigerate, and Aerilate. However, it is affected by Ion Deluge (if the move would be Normal-type) and Electrify.

Trivia

Despite Weather Ball becoming a Rock-type move in a sandstorm and a ???-type move in Shadow Sky, Castform itself will not change form under these conditions.
Prior to Generation IV, Weather Ball was one of the only two moves (along with Hidden Power) which could be either physical or special, due to the damage category being determined by the type.

 * Despite Weather Ball becoming a Rock-type move in a {{weather|sandstorm}} and a {{type|???}} move in {{weather|Shadow Sky}}, Castform itself will not change form under these conditions.
-* Prior to Generation IV, Weather Ball was one of the only two moves (along with {{m|Hidden Power}}) which could—depending on the weather—be either physical or special, due to the damage category being determined by the type.
