From [[Generation II]] on, freeze has a random, 20% chance to be cured on its own on the frozen Pokémon's turn. Consequently, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the turn of freezing; however, in [[Generation I]], a frozen Pokémon never thaws without external aid. Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|Intense sunlight|sunny weather}}, but contrary to popular belief, sunny weather does not cause a quicker thawing.

Being frozen can be cured with the use of an {{DL|Status condition healing item|Ice Heal}} or an [[Aspear Berry]] ({{DL|Berries (Generation II)|Burnt Berry}} in [[Generation II]]). In addition, like all other major [[status condition]]s, it can be cured by the items {{DL|Status condition healing item|Full Heal}}, {{DL|Status condition healing item|Lava Cookie}}, {{DL|Potion|Full Restore}}, {{DL|Status condition healing item|Old Gateau}}, {{DL|Herbal medicine|Heal Powder}}, [[Lum Berry]], {{DL|Status condition healing item|Casteliacone}}, and [[Sacred Ash]]. {{m|Heal Bell}} and {{m|Aromatherapy}} also removes it from all Pokémon in the party. A Pokémon with {{a|Natural Cure}} will be cured upon switching out, one with the {{a|Hydration}} Ability will be cured while it is {{weather|raining}}, and one with {{a|Shed Skin}} has a 30% chance of being cured every turn.
