Ok could you set this straight
1 rain dance powers up water moves?
2 rain dance powers up water pkm alltogether?
3 sunny day powers up grass moves?
4 sunny day powers up grass pkm alltogether?
5 hail&sandstorm only do damage? or do they have somekind of benefit, like with blizzard?
6 besides the tunder+raindance combo and sunnyday+solarbeam what are there?

Thanks :-P
 
Rain Dance powers up Water moves by 50%, and makes Thunder 100% accurate.

Sunny Day powers up Fire moves by 50%, and makes Solar Beam attack without a charge. It also increases the amount Moonlight and Synthesis heal.

Hail does 1/16th of a Pokemons hp in damage each turn unless the Pokemon is Ice-type, and makes Blizzard 100% accurate.

Sandstorm does 1/16th of a Pokemons hp in damage each turn unless the Pokemon is Rock, Ground, or Steel-type, reduces Thunder's accuracy and Solar Beams base power, and reduces the amount Moonlight and Synthesis heal.

That is all I can recall off the top of my head, someone else might be able to be more specific.

rain dance ups water type moves and sunny day ups fire type moves.
rain dance makes thunder 100% accurate and solarbeam take 2 turns to charge (I may have the solarbeam thing here wrong or mixed up with sandstorm). sunny day takes recharge off solarbeam and makes thunder 50% accurate.
Hail in the 4th gen ups the accuracy of blizzard (3rd gen it did nothing as i remember).
there is now the hail+blizzard combo but other than that there is nothing i can think of.
 
1 rain dance powers up water moves?Yes

2 rain dance powers up water pkm alltogether?Just the moves, and Thunder

3 sunny day powers up grass moves?No

4 sunny day powers up grass pkm alltogether?No

5 hail&sandstorm only do damage? or do they have somekind of benefit, like with blizzard?Sandstorm hurts every type but Rock/Ground. What does Blizzard do besides hurt?

6 besides the tunder+raindance combo and sunnyday+solarbeam what are there?Cant think of any more...
 
1 Yes
2 No, it only affects water moves (power up) and fire moves (power down)
3 No, Sunny Day is the reverse of Rain Dance (Water moves power down, fire moves power up)
4 Again, the condition itself doesn't "power up" the entire pokemon, though some grass types have abilities that speed them up during a sunny day (chlorophyll) or regen health in a rain dance (rain dish).
5 I believe Sandstorm and Hail also power up ground and ice type moves respectively. Additionally, Sandstorm slightly lowers accuracy.
6 Nothing springs to mind that is a that kind of specific two move combo.

Sandstorm doesn't hit Steel types and I believe Pokemon with Sand Veil (how else can Cacnea not get hurt?).
 
Sorry didnt kno where best to post this so Question: I heard a rumour that surf now also affects your partner in double battles? can any1 confirm that for me pls?
 
Thanks for the quick response. Lol How annoying tho thats a huge change i may hav 2 rethink some stuff.
 
Thanks a bunch, still not sure about the effects of sandstorm and hail tho..but oh well..most of that will probably be in the 4th gen..
 
use kyogre's drizzle for thunder


and groudon's " ability " for solarebeam

and btw water spout + for hp + kyogre's drizzle = HELL !!!!!!
 
Should also be noted that Pokemon with Swift Swim become faster when Rain Dance is in effect, Pokemon with Hydration recover from status effects when RD is used, and Rain Dish allows Ludicolo and its previous forms to recover a 1/16th of its max HP when RD is in effect.

Sunny Day also boosts Cherrim's power up.
 
1 rain dance powers up water moves?
YES, by 50%. Makes Thunder 100% Accurate

3 sunny day powers up grass moves?
NO, it increases Fire Type Damage(Physical/Special). Highens the Burn Stat's Power. Makes Solarbeam 100%Accurate+In the first turn+50% more. IT SPEEDS GRASS POKÉMON with Chlorophyll. There is a new ability that highens Sp. Attack for Grasses while Sunny Day's Effects

5 hail&sandstorm only do damage? or do they have somekind of benefit, like with blizzard?
I think they highen the Special Damage inflicted by their types(NOT SURE)

6 besides the tunder+raindance combo and sunnyday+solarbeam what are there?
Hail+Blizzard
Sunny Day+Flamethrower...
