Weather Effects and How to Change Weather

Moves That Change the Weather

Move Type Effect
Chilly Reception Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Ice Type Moves The user switches out with another Pokemon in the party and summons a snowstorm that lasts for five turns.
Rain Dance Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Water Type Moves Activates Rain for five turns.
Sandstorm Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Rock Type Moves Activates a sandstorm for five turns.
Snowscape Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Ice Type Moves Activates a snowstorm for five turns and boosts Defense of Ice types while active.
Sunny Day Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Fire Type Moves Activates Sunshine for 5 turns.

Pokemon are also able to manually set weather using Moves such as Sunny Day. These come with the advantage of going after a Pokemon switches in and out, so if a Pokemon that sets Weather switches in, a Weather setting move will occur after it.

Prankster Pokemon such as Grimmsnarl and Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) are excellent users of these Moves.
