>>37999548Sand storm weather enjoys many of the same or similar gimmicks in Sand rush, Sand veil and Sand force, and yet they still get their defensive buff. Gen 7 even introduced an attack that directly benefits from sand storm, Shore Up (which is great for healing, while Blizzard is great for attack. Meanwhile Ice body provides healing during hail, while Sand force is great for attack. So it sort of equals out.)
This leaves Ice with no buff and Aurora veil. But as is so often the case (same with the type's offensive prowess), Aurora veil doesn't actually benefit just Ice spefically. Ninetales can set it up as support for non-Ice team members just fine.
