What it does
Resets the stat stages of all active Pokemon to 0.
Who carrys it
8 of the 277 Pokémon measured on the
Regulation M-B ladder carry Haze.
The one that matters most is Milotic,
which is on 6.0% of teams and carrys it on 16.7% of its sets.
The full list is above, ordered by how much of the format each one is.
What it hits
As a Ice move it is super effective against Dragon, Flying, Grass and Ground, resisted by Fire, Ice, Steel and Water.
9 other Ice moves appear in this format: Blizzard, Ice Punch, Icy Wind, Aurora Veil, Freeze-Dry, Ice Beam and others.
Who could and does not
29 Pokémon legal in this regulation can learn Haze at all,
against the 8 that actually bring it. The gap is the interesting number: it is
the set of Pokémon that have the option and decline it.
The most-played of those are Mamoswine, Chandelure, Palafin, Altaria, Gengar and Glaceon — each of them measured on the ladder, each of them leaving this move on the shelf.
How concentrated it is
Across the ladder, Haze accounts for an expected
0.01 of the six slots on an average team, which makes it the
116th most-brought of the 121 moves this format runs.
76% of that comes from Milotic alone, so it is really one Pokémon’s move rather than the format’s.
Its carriers are mostly Water (4), Poison (3) and Dragon (2).
Where these numbers come from
Usage is Smogon's published statistics for the Regulation M-B VGC ladder, and the description is
the one shipped in the Pokémon Showdown data set. Both are regenerated on every build rather than
written by hand, so this page follows the format instead of trailing it. Take any of it to the
team builder or the damage calculator.
