Sand Veil is an Ability that increases the evasion of a Pokémon by 20% in a Sandstorm and grants immunity to the passive damage caused by Sandstorm. So, for example, if a Cacturne (which has Sandstorm as its only possible Ability) would be in such a Sandstorm, it wouldn't be hurt by passive damage thanks to Sand Veil, even though it isn't a Ground, Rock or Steel type Pokémon. Eleven Pokémon have Sand Veil as their Ability.
In the overworld, if the Pokémon with Sand Veil is leading the party in an area with a sandstorm, such as Route 228 in Sinnoh, Sand Veil decreases the wild Pokémon encounter rate by 50%.
