This arena was going to be the home of the flying gym, until its owner was defeated in battle. Since then, it has not been used ... until today!
The battle will take place on a large plateau high in the mountains. Up here, there is no source of water or grass and the wind can be very strong. There is a source of external rocks, but due to the strong wind, moves that require an external rock source like Rock Slide, Rock Throw and and Rock Tomb have their base accuracy lowered by a flat 10%. The wind also makes certain moves easier to use. Blizzard, Defog, Gust, Heat Wave, Hurricane, Icy Wind, Leaf Tornado, Ominous Wind, Razor Wind, Silver Wind, Tailwind, Twister and Whirlwind all have their energy costs reduced by 1.
In addition, there are thermal columns around the arena. The thermals reduce the BAP of Ice-type moves by 2, reduce the duration of Smack Down's effect to 4 actions and modify the energy costs of certain moves. Fly and Sky Drop cost 2 less energy, and Magnet Rise and the Levitate command cost 1 more energy. Roost, Dig and all seismic moves cost 2 more energy if the pokemon using the move is flying or levitating, has a weight class of 4 or less, and is not under the effect of Smack Down or Gravity.
