In Sunny [[weather]], Pokémon with Dry Skin will lose HP, while their natural HP recovery rate is boosted in Rain. Natural HP recovery rate is unaffected in Sunny weather. Pokémon will also gain HP when hit by a {{type|Water}} move, but will get extra damage from {{type|Fire}} moves.  
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], Pokémon with Dry Skin lose 3 HP every 9-10 turns in Sunny weather and take 50% more damage from Fire-type moves. Water-type moves heal equal to the damage that would be dealt. In the rain, the natural HP recovery rate is quadrupled from 0.5% of the maximum HP per turn, to 2% per turn.

Dry Skin (Japanese: かんそうはだ Dry Skin) is an Ability introduced in Generation IV.

Effect

In battle

During harsh sunlight, a Pokémon with Dry Skin will lose ⅛ of its maximum HP at the end of each turn. During rain, a Pokémon with Dry Skin will regain ⅛ of its maximum HP at the end of each turn.

Fire-type attacks do 25% more damage to a Pokémon with Dry Skin.

When a Pokémon with Dry Skin is hit by a Water-type move, its HP is restored by one quarter of its maximum HP, and the move will have no effect on that Pokémon (if a Pokémon with this Ability already has full HP, the Water-type move will do nothing). This effect will not activate if the Pokémon is protected from the Water-type move. Multi-strike moves, such as Water Shuriken, will only activate this effect once.

If a Pokémon with Dry Skin is holding an Absorb Bulb or Luminous Moss, Dry Skin absorbs the Water-type move so the item's effect is not triggered.

Outside of battle

Dry Skin has no effect outside of battle.
