Freeze-Dry (Japanese: フリーズドライ Freeze-Dry) is a damage-dealing Ice-type move introduced in Generation VI.

Effect

Freeze-Dry deals damage and has a 10% chance of freezing the foe. If used on a Water-type Pokémon, this move ignores the type effectiveness of this move's type against Water and treats it as being super effective against Water types instead (even during Inverse Battles or if Freeze-Dry's type is changed). The type effectiveness of Freeze-Dry against any other types the target has is determined normally.

	A light blue ball or energy forms above Mega Glalie's head, with two beams of light blue energy each connecting to the horns on its left and right. Then a beam of light blue, white and purple aura is shot from the ball and hits the opponent, freezing it.
