Ice Ball (Japanese: アイスボール Ice Ball) is a damage-dealing Ice-type move introduced in Generation III. Prior to Generation VI, it was the signature move of Spheal's evolutionary line.
Contents
Effect
Generations III to VII
Ice Ball inflicts damage over five turns, doubling in power for each consecutive hit; the power will reset after five turns or if Ice Ball is interrupted. Ice Ball's power is doubled in addition if the user had previously used Defense Curl. Pokémon with Bulletproof are immune to Ice Ball.
Hitting a Mimikyu in Disguised Form will produce the Rollout storage glitch.
Ice Ball can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining extra three appeal points if move Hail was used in the prior turn. It is also a Contest Spectacular combination, with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if Defense Curl was used in the prior turn.
Generation VIII
Ice Ball cannot be selected in a battle.
