How it works in Gen IX
If the current weather is Sun and the user is not holding Utility Umbrella, this move's damage is multiplied by 1.5 instead of halved for being Water type.
“The user blasts the target with boiling-hot water. This move's power is not lowered in harsh sunlight but rather boosted by 50 percent.”
