The '''freeze''' condition (FRZ) (Japanese: '''{{tt|凍|こお}}り''' ''Ice''), also called '''ice''' in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], is a non-volatile [[status condition]] that causes a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to be unable to make a move. It is the only status condition that does not have a [[move]] that will always cause it or an [[Ability]] that can cause it, and because of this, it is arguably the most uncommon.

===Generation I===
===Generation I===
Once frozen, a Pokémon cannot be thawed out in battle other than via the use of items such as an [[Ice Heal]], being hit by a damaging {{type|Fire}} move that can inflict {{status|burn}} (i.e. any Fire-type move except {{m|Fire Spin}}), or the opponent using the move {{m|Haze}}. If a frozen Pokémon uses a move with 0 [[PP]] on the same turn that it thaws out, {{DL|List of glitches (Generation I)|Struggle bypassing|the PP of the move will roll over to 63 PP}}, and full [[PP Up]]s will be applied to it.
Once frozen, a Pokémon cannot be thawed out in battle other than via the use of items such as an [[Ice Heal]], being hit by a damaging {{type|Fire}} move that can inflict {{status|burn}} (i.e. any Fire-type move except {{m|Fire Spin}}), or the opponent using the move {{m|Haze}}. While frozen, a Pokémon does not have the option of choosing which move it would use that turn.
In the Generation I handheld games, if the user goes last and is immediately frozen solid, and if the opponent goes first and uses a Fire type move (Except Fire Spin) on the Pokémon, the Pokémon that is thawed out will select a glitch move. This is due to a Pokémon selecting the last move (including from a other Pokémon) if it goes last and thaws out
 
In the Generation I handheld games, if a frozen Pokémon is defrosted before it would have moved that turn, it still uses a move that turn, even though it was not able to select a move that turn due to being frozen. Due to how the game determines which move to use, this can cause a [[List of battle glitches (Generation I)#Defrost move forcing|variety of glitches]], including desynchronization during a link battle. If a frozen Pokémon uses a move with 0 [[PP]] on the same turn that it thaws out, {{DL|List of glitches (Generation I)|Struggle bypassing|the PP of the move will roll over to 63 PP}}, and full [[PP Up]]s will be applied to it (if none had been previously) or a PP Up will be removed (if it had any PP Ups applied).


===Generation II===
===Generation II===
A frozen Pokémon has a 25/256 (≈10%) chance of being thawed out each time it attempts to move. On the turn that a Pokémon defrosts, it cannot attack until the next turn, similar to {{status|sleep}} in Generation I.
A frozen Pokémon has a 25/256 (≈10%) chance of being thawed out at the end of each turn, regardless of whether the Pokémon attempted to act that turn (e.g. it was just switched in). Like sleep, a frozen Pokémon now can choose which move it will use if it thaws that turn. In addition, {{cat|Moves that thaw out the user|some moves}} can still be used by the frozen Pokémon while frozen (thawing it out in the process).
 
Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}, but harsh sunlight does not affect when an already-frozen Pokémon thaws.


In [[Generation II]] only, {{m|Tri Attack}} is capable of freezing {{type|Ice}}s and has a 1/3 chance of thawing a frozen target.
In [[Generation II]] only, {{m|Tri Attack}} is capable of freezing {{type|Ice}}s and has a 1/3 chance of thawing a frozen target.


It is now possible to select a move in the Attack option as the thaw out glitch from [[Generation I]] has been fixed.
In [[Generation II]] only, if a frozen Pokémon enters the battle, its cry will not be heard.


In addition, {{cat|Moves that thaw out the user|some moves}} can still be used by the frozen Pokémon while frozen (thawing it out in the process). Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}, but harsh sunlight does not affect when an already-frozen Pokémon thaws.
===Generation III===
A frozen Pokémon has a 20% of being thawed out on each of its turns. An animation also shows up whenever a Pokémon is unable to move due to being frozen (in contrast to previous generations, in which it only showed up when freeze was inflicted).


In [[Generation II]], if a frozen Pokémon enter the battle, its cry will not be heard
All damaging Fire-type moves can now thaw a frozen target, regardless of whether or not they have a chance to burn; however, Fire-type {{m|Hidden Power}} cannot thaw a frozen target. Tri Attack can no longer thaw a frozen Pokémon.


===Generation III===
While frozen, a Pokémon's {{a|Flash Fire}} Ability is disabled.
Same as Generation II, but the thaw chance is now 20% and Pokémon can attack on the turn that they defrost. An animation also shows up whenever a Pokémon is unable to move due to being frozen (in contrast to previous generations, in which it only showed up when freeze was inflicted).
 
Now all damaging Fire-type moves can thaw a frozen target, regardless of whether or not they have a chance to burn; however, Fire-type {{m|Hidden Power}} cannot thaw a frozen target. Tri Attack can no longer thaw a frozen Pokémon. Freezing also disables the Ability {{a|Flash Fire}}.


===Generation IV===

{{m|Scald}} can also be used to thaw a frozen target.
{{m|Scald}}, {{m|Steam Eruption}}, {{m|Scorching Sands}} and {{m|Matcha Gotcha}} can also be used to thaw a frozen target.

==Curing==
==Curing==
In all generations except [[Generation I]], freeze has a chance to be cured on its own on the frozen Pokémon's turn; it has a 10% chance in Generation II, and 20% chance in all subsequent generations. Consequently, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the turn of freezing. Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}, but harsh sunlight has no effect on Pokémon that are already frozen.

Consequently, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the turn of freezing. Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}, but harsh sunlight has no effect on Pokémon that are already frozen.


Being frozen can be cured with the use of an [[Ice Heal]], a [[Pumkin Berry]] ([[Generation III]] only) and [[Aspear Berry]] ([[Burnt Berry]] in [[Generation II]]). In addition, like all other major [[status condition]]s, it can be cured by the items [[Full Heal]], [[Rage Candy Bar]], [[Lava Cookie]], [[Old Gateau]], [[Casteliacone]], [[Lumiose Galette]], [[Shalour Sable]], [[Big Malasada]], [[Full Restore]], [[Heal Powder]], [[Lum Berry]] ([[MiracleBerry]] in Generation II), and [[Sacred Ash]].

In Generation I and II, if a frozen Pokémon is hit by a damaging Fire-type move that can inflict {{status|burn}} (i.e. every Fire-type move except {{m|Fire Spin}} and {{m|Hidden Power}}), it will be thawed; in Generation II, if a frozen Pokémon is hit by {{m|Tri Attack}}, it has a 1/3 chance of being thawed.
In Generations I and II, if a frozen Pokémon is hit by a damaging Fire-type move that can inflict a {{status|burn}} (i.e. every Fire-type move except {{m|Fire Spin}} and {{m|Hidden Power}}), it will be thawed; in Generation II, if a frozen Pokémon is hit by {{m|Tri Attack}}, it has a 1/3 chance of being thawed.


From Generation III onward, if a frozen Pokémon is successfully hit by a damaging {{type|Fire}} move, it will be immediately thawed; {{cat|moves that change type}} such as {{m|Weather Ball}} can thaw a frozen target if they are Fire-type, except {{m|Hidden Power}} in Generation III. From [[Generation V]] onward, Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Flash Fire}} will not be thawed by Fire-type moves, since they will not be damaged by them (prior to Generation V, Flash Fire cannot be activated while the Pokémon is frozen).

From [[Generation V]] onward, Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Flash Fire}} will not be thawed by Fire-type moves, since they will not be damaged by them (prior to Generation V, Flash Fire cannot be activated while the Pokémon is frozen).


Starting in Generation VI, if a frozen Pokémon is successfully hit by {{m|Scald}}, {{m|Steam Eruption}}, or {{m|Scorching Sands}}, it will be immediately thawed. However, if the Pokémon is immune to the move (e.g. due to {{a|Water Absorb}} or {{a|Levitate}}), it cannot be thawed by it.

However, if the Pokémon is immune to the move (e.g. due to {{a|Water Absorb}} or {{a|Levitate}}), it cannot be thawed by it.


A frozen Pokémon can still use the moves {{m|Flame Wheel}}, {{m|Sacred Fire}}, {{m|Flare Blitz}}, {{m|Fusion Flare}}, {{m|Scald}}, {{m|Steam Eruption}}, {{m|Burn Up}}, {{m|Pyro Ball}}, and {{m|Scorching Sands}} while frozen; these moves will thaw the user, then execute normally. They will thaw out the user even if they are {{cat|Protection moves|blocked}}, miss, deal no damage due an Ability like {{a|Flash Fire}}, or are prevented from being executed by {{m|Powder}}, [[Rain|heavy rain]], or [[Harsh sunlight|extremely harsh sunlight]]; however, they cannot thaw out the user if they would fail (such as a non-Fire-type Pokémon using Burn Up).

The moves {{m|Heal Bell}} (unless the Pokémon has Soundproof as their Ability in Generation III and IV) and {{m|Aromatherapy}} remove the freeze condition from all Pokémon in the user's party. In Generation I only, using {{m|Haze}} cures the opponent from the freeze condition.

Pokémon with {{a|Natural Cure}} will be cured upon switching out, those with the {{a|Hydration}} Ability will be cured while it is {{weather|rain}}ing. Pokémon with {{a|Shed Skin}} have a 1/3 chance of being cured every turn, and Pokémon with {{a|Healer}} have a 30% chance of curing their allies.
