Hail (Japanese: あられ Hail) is a non-damaging Ice-type move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

Generation III

When Hail is used, a hailstorm will begin on the field. This effect will last for 5 turns. This clears any other weather effect.

While Hail is in effect, all Pokémon not of the Ice-type will be damaged at the end of each turn. Synthesis, Morning Sun and Moonlight will recover only ¼ of the user's maximum HP. Additionally, Castform and Weather Ball move become Ice-type.

Generation IV

Blizzard's accuracy increases to 100%, and allows it to strike through Protect and Detect with 30% accuracy.

Pokémon with the Ice Body ability recover ¹/₁₆ of their maximum HP each round. Pokémon with the Snow Cloak ability increase their evasion by 20%. If an Icy Rock is held by the Pokémon using Hail at the time of use, the duration of Hail will increase from 5 to 8 turns.
