A frozen Pokémon has a 20%<!-- or 10%?--> chance of being thawed out every turn. On the turn that a Pokémon defrosts, it cannot attack until the next turn, similar to {{status|Sleep}} in Generation I. In addition, several moves can still be used by the frozen Pokémon while frozen (thawing it out in the process); Pokémon can't be frozen in {{weather|intense sunlight}}, but they don't thaw out faster if already frozen, contrary to popular belief.

Animations also shows up on every turn Pokémon is frozen (in contrast to previous generations, where animation showed up only when freeze was inflicted).
