redshadow6892 0 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I was just curious if this is a bug or something? I have a Vanillite and I am in Rhodochrine Jungle and noticed that my icy wind did not cause super effective on a Spearow. It is windy if that has anything to do with it? I read about the Forest effect and it doesnt say it decrease ice type moves. My thunder shock from my Pichu wont even do super effective either. Link to post Share on other sites
nugget_22 0 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 umm i think wind makes flying types have like no weakness or something kinda like delta stream not an ability Link to post Share on other sites
Arkhi 199 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Icy Wind is an Ice-type move, which deals super effective damage to Flying-types. Spearow is one such flying type. Link to post Share on other sites

Arkhi 199 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Neither windy weather nor the forest effect have any effect on any Ice-type move nor any defensive effect for flying-types. In this case, everything is working as intended. Edit: Do you mean to say Icy Wind is NOT dealing super effective damage? Your original post says you are, so I'm ascertaining this is the case.

Yes it is NOT dealing it. I made one error in grammar. I sorry, but the rest of it should have said that. Link to post Share on other sites
Arkhi 199 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 No problem, I ought to have caught on anyway. Did the Spearow happen to use Roost at all during the battle? I don't believe it gets the move yet, given its level in Rhodochrine, but we can't rule out the possibility. Link to post Share on other sites
redshadow6892 0 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 No he didn't. He only used Aerial Ace and Mirror move before I killed it. Link to post Share on other sites
nugget_22 0 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 well for me in windy weather i was fighting a guy and i used my luxray on his flying type and used charge beam and it only did neutral damage Link to post Share on other sites
Arkhi 199 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Well, you're right in saying the Field Effects page doesn't list the weather. The Windy weather effect has a similar effect to Mega Rayquaza's ability, Delta Stream. All flying-type Pokemon lose their Flying weaknesses. So this is not a bug, but an effect of the Windy weather.

DashingStorm 3 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Windy weather represents Mega Rayquaza's ability; Delta Stream, which cuts Flying types' weaknesses in half. If they have a weakness to Ice, it's removed and damage done by an Ice-type attack is neutral. Same goes with Electric/Rock-type attacks. (Single weakness) If they have a double weakness, like Rayquaza being Dragon/Flying and 4x weak to Ice, it'll be halved to 2x weak instead. Link to post Share on other sites
