A crust of salt spreads out over the battlefield.

All Pokémon in battle have a 10% chance of being poisoned each turn excepting Ground and Steel-types. Instead, Steel-type Pokémon will receive 1/16th HP residual damage each turn.

Pokémon that have used the moves INGRAIN or ROOT PLANT have a 10% chance of being badly poisoned each turn.

This move will last for five turns, and will overlap with atmospheric field effects, but not terrain field effects.

Additionally, all effects of this move are doubled in conjunction with SUNNY DAY, but the move will immediately end if a Water-type field effect is used (e.g. RAIN DANCE, WATER SPORT).
