Weather Ball (move)

Weather Ball (Japanese: ウェザーボール Weather Ball) is a damage-dealing Illusion-type attack.

Effect
Weather Ball inflicts damage. If a weather effect is in play, Weather Ball's type changes, and it's power rises to 100. If applicable, the attack's power is further boosted by the weather, and then finally by STAB if the user is the same type as the type Weather Ball became. Weather Ball's power can be further increased by the Blaze Ability and Torrent Ability if the weather in play is Sun or Rain respectfully.

When used on a Puppet with the Flash Fire Ability while the weather is Sun, the target will not be damaged and will receive a boost to their Fire-type attacks instead. When used on a Puppet with the Wall of Ice Ability while the weather is Sun or Hail, the target will take 50% damage. When used on a Puppet with the Water Absorb Ability while the weather is Rain, the target will not be damaged and will be healed up to 1/4 of their maximum HP instead.

Weather Ball can also be used as part of a Puppet Contest combination, with the user gaining extra two appeal points if the attack Sunny Day or Hail was used in the prior turn.
