Snow (Japanese: ゆき Snow) is a type of weather first seen in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team, before appearing for the first time in the main-series games in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
In the Mystery Dungeon games, snow is a separate weather from hail that cannot be summoned by moves or Abilities. It increases Movement Speed of Ice-type Pokémon by 1.
In Generation IX, snow serves as the replacement for hail and works similarly to it; it will last for five turns if created using Snow Warning or Snowscape, or eight turns if created by a Pokémon holding an Icy Rock. The move Chilly Reception also creates snow and switches the user out. It raises the Defense stat of all Ice-type Pokémon by 50%. Unlike hail, snow does not damage non-Ice types.
