Air Lock is an ability in PMDO.

Effects

Air Lock ends the current weather on the floor after the Pokémon uses a move.

Strategy

Using Air Lock
  • This ability greatly lowers the difficulty of floors with troublesome weather effects.
  • Enemies with weather moves are likely to waste turns trying to repeatedly re-establish them, making them much easier to defeat.
  • Air Lock activates after the move is used and damage is dealt. If a move like Thunder is used under the effects of Rain, it will still have perfect accuracy before the weather ends.
Fighting Air Lock
  • You generally should not waste turns and PP on weather moves; they won't last long.
  • If your team is built around an automatic weather ability, such as Sand Stream, make that Pokémon the leader of the party so that the weather persists throughout the rest of the team's turns.
