Was hail changed?
I know that there are new abilities that can use the hail as well as summon it, but has the weather affect changed in anyway?

The effects didn't change.
Thank you for the quick reply. I heard rumors of a buff, but I wanted to know for sure.

How many fucking generations are we going to go without a Defense boost for Ice in Hail? It's so fucking obvious.

New ability that gives speed boost, like swift swim, in hail. I think Beartic got it.

There's Aurora Veil aka the move that sets up Reflect and Light Screen all in one go but can only be set-up during hail and only ice types can learn it.
Of course, this means it's borderline useless as 99% of those users are shit but there's a silver lining: Alola Ninetales has both Aurora Hail AND gets Snow Warning as it's ability.
It's something.

Ice shouldn't have to be thrown a bone with a situational move when Rock types get instant bonus from Sandstorm not to mention how two other types can act in sand without fear of damage.
Ice literally needs all the fucking defensive help it can get because it's apparent that GF will never change its type match ups.
