Drought summons {{weather|intense sunlight}} in battle as soon as a Pokémon with Drought enters the battle. Its effects are the same as the move {{m|Sunny Day}}, but instead of lasting for a limited amount of turns, it lasts for the whole battle (unless it is replaced by another weather condition). If a Pokémon with Drought is sent out in the same turn as another Pokémon whose Ability affects the weather, the slower Pokémon's Ability will override the faster Pokémon's Ability.
