Personally, I think weather effects are fine as is. The only one that stands a chance of being overpowered is Adamantistorm that deals double Sandstorm damage, gives the benefits to allies and detriments to the enemies (except it still doesn't damage Rock, Ground and Steel types), and gives 50% Defense to Rock-types on top of the 50% Special Defense it already gives.

Mwa. Ha. Ha.

If we do have to nerf weather effects, I'd say actually implement the "weather affects morale system". Like, give a damage penalty to units in weather detrimental to their type, and/or apply a morale penalty. Like, a Fire-type that takes damage during Sandstorm would take a bigger chunk out of that side's morale than, say, a Ground-type taking damage.

Alternatively, I could nerf Adamantistorm so it deals regular Sandstorm damage.

But I'm rather inclined to only go either-or on this one.
