Icy Wind Effect

Has the user blow a gust of freezing air at the designated location, applying a slowing effect to opposing Pokemon it hits. Once the freezing air builds up, it creates a pillar of ice, dealing damage and applying a slowing effect to opposing Pokemon it hits. After a short time, the pillar of ice breaks, dealing damage to nearby opposing Pokemon. If a pillar of ice is created in a flooded area, that area becomes frozen. A maximum of 2 uses can be kept in reserve for this move.

How to Use Icy Wind

Cast Beside the Target

It's best to cast Icy Wind beside the intended target/s to ensure that they'll get hit by the move.

Block Paths

Icy Wind can also be used to simply block certain paths and prevent opponents from passing through.

Use Surf to Break the Ice Pillars

Icy Wind and Surf have a special interaction with each other. If Surf collides with ice pillars created by Icy Wind, it instantly breaks it, dealing damage to nearby enemies.
