ひでり (Drought)
第III世代場に出たとき、永続する強い日差しを発生させる。
対戦中のひでり
Drought automatically summons harsh sunlight when the Pokemon enters battle, lasting indefinitely unless replaced by another weather condition. Under sun, Fire-type moves deal 1.5x damage, Water-type moves are weakened to 0.5x, Solar Beam and Solar Blade require no charge turn, Moonlight and Morning Sun heal 2/3 HP, and Synthesis heals 2/3 HP.
Like other weather-setting abilities, when multiple weather setters enter simultaneously, the slowest Pokemon's weather prevails. Drought activates each time the Pokemon switches in, allowing for repeated weather control throughout a battle.
Drought is found on Ninetales (including Kantonian form), Torkoal, and Groudon. It enables sun-based strategies centered around Chlorophyll Speed boosters, powerful Fire-type attacks, and instant Solar Beam. Torkoal is the most common Drought user in competitive play due to its availability, while Groudon's Drought powers the most dominant weather strategies in unrestricted formats.
