    So out of all the weather effects in the game which is your fave to use and which Pokémon do you like to use for it?

    Mine is rain. I usually go for Kingdra, Politoed or Blastoise. Toxicroak and Heliolisk are fun in the rain too.

    Rain or Sun because I don't really use weather and when I am in hail or sandstorms I don't have a rock, steel, ground, or ice Pokémon

    Defiantly Rain for me. Since I happen to be a big fan Water type fan, I love weather that helps me win my battles easier and faster.

    I know what you mean, it's easier dealing with rain or sun with no constant chip damage. Easier to capitalize on too, electric types can easily turn the opponent's rain against them and fire/grass types with sun. Not as easy to do with hail or sand.

    I like hail, I like damage and I am a bigger fan of a continuous attack. I want to get into using a Snow Warning Pokémon so my little Pokémon don't take the damage as much, maybe make hail purpose team. I don't usually use weather though since I am straight out attack and I don't like setting up.

    I love Sandstorm or Sand. Ground, Rock, and Steel typing are immune, which really helps out.

    Alolan- Nintales and Alolan-Sandslash are awesome when they use their hidden abilities together. I'm working on a hail team and it's doing pretty well, almost as good as my rain team.

    I don't usually plan a team but I would be willing to raise a new vulpix (trying to get a shiny one) and the Sandslash from Strytho's giveaway

    Good luck with the shiny, how are you trying to get it? SOS or breeding?

    I'm completely the same! I'm not one to actively use weather conditions in battle, but if I do, Rain is definitely my favourite.

    I gotta admit, I'm like cadburry, I almost never take any time to set up anything and just kill in the first round, but if I were to use a weather condition I'd go for rain so that my dragonite's thunder will hit haha I have no patience for low accuracy moves.

    Being that fire is my favorite typing and I have a love for mega charizard y, sunny weather is my favorite. I just love using it to destroy things with fire types and when you mix primal groudon into the mix, ingame it can be a lot of fun.

    I've come to love the sandstom weather condition.

    I usually don't any weather moves and never payed any attention to the weather until my Nuzlocke run of White. That was when I got a Sigilyph with Magic Guard and a Herdier with Sand Rush. Desert Resort was so much fun.

    I like Rain. Mostly because I like strong water moves and Thunder and Hurricane never miss.

    Agreed, Cadbberry! I actually used hail as my primary method of residual damage back when I went to the VGC 2013 national tournament! I came out with a 5 win to 4 loss ratio, so I think that proves how useful hail can be!

    @[member="Seprix"] looks like Cadbberry, @[member="ClefairyKid"], and I do!

    I really like Hail and Drought. I don't use a lot of Ice Types but I do love them and my favorite Pokémon Ninetales has an Ice and a Fire type form so these two weather changes really work for me!

    I love sun and rain! I used to run a swift swim team back in Gen 5 when it was still broken beyond all belief, so I got some pretty nice memories of rain. I've been doing random battles on Pokémon Showdown, and sun is saving me on quite a few occasions!
