Many Abilities interact with weather by boosting Speed, changing move effects, restoring HP, preventing weather damage, or automatically setting weather on entry. The exact list is large and differs by game availability, so evaluate each Ability individually. A weather-based Ability is strongest when the team can reliably create and maintain its preferred weather, but relying too heavily on one condition can make a team predictable. Consider whether the Pokémon is useful when weather is absent and whether opponents can overwrite the weather. Always check the Ability description in your current game because some weather mechanics have changed between generations.
