Blizzard is a damage-dealing move that also carries a 10% chance of inflicting Freeze on the target.

While being extremely powerful, Blizzard is also somewhat unreliable because of its 70% accuracy. Despite this minor drawback, Blizzard’s 110 BP makes up for the occasional misses.

When used under snow, Blizzard will bypass all accuracy checks. Because of this, the move is considered a staple move for Hail-based teams.

In competitive play, Blizzard can be an option for Ice types outside of Hail teams. Blizzard can also be used as a coverage move. However, because of its lower accuracy, Blizzard is often replaced by Ice Beam. Therefore, Blizzard is rarely used outside of Hail teams.

With that said, Blizzard isn’t a particularly good option in the main story. Aside from its low accuracy, Blizzard only becomes available towards the end of the game anyways – and by then you’ll have many better moves to choose from.
