Abomasnow using Blizzard in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire

TM14 Blizzard can be bought for 30,000 Pokédollars on the fourth floor of the Lilycove Department Store. Both clerks on the department store’s fourth floor also sell other TMs as well.

Blizzard is a damage-dealing Ice-type move with a small chance of freezing the target. With its high base power, the move is sure to deal a ton of damage if it hits. Its low accuracy does hold it back from being more commonly used.

Blizzard is a Special Ice-type move with a 10% chance of freezing its target. The move will hit both targets in double battles without harming your ally.

Ice-type moves are good thanks to their coverage against common threats, like Dragon and Flying. Blizzard is no exception; however, it’s a powerful move that’s hindered by its low accuracy.

Other trainers tend to use Ice Beam instead.

Ice Beam’s perfect accuracy makes up for its lack of power, not to mention that almost every Pokémon that’s able to learn Ice Beam can also learn Blizzard. But it’s up to you to decide if you want to sacrifice consistency for raw power.

You can remedy Blizzard’s inaccuracy by running the move Hail or the ability Snow Warning on the same team. Because during a hailstorm, Blizzard won’t miss.
