Hydro Shield is an A.I. exclusive Active ability in Sonny (2017).
In-Game Description[]
Heal X HP and apply Hydro Guard to target.
Details[]
Strikes all party members 1 time, restoring HP (X) with 85% of the caster's Power with the Frost element. Applies the buff Hydro Guard on the target. This ability starts with a cooldown of 3 turns, which immediately ticks down when entering a fight, meaning it's available for use on the 3rd turn. Lastly, after it has been used, it enters a cooldown of 7 turns.
This ability will never be used on targets above 75% HP. However, because this ability can strike all party members regardless of the target, a unit can still be healed while having more than 75% HP, if at least one of it's allies happens to have 75% or lower HP. This ability also gains a bonus to it's A.I. score with 150% of the caster's Base Stat.
The ability's in-game description doesn't mention that this ability will strike all party members.
Target Buff[]
Hydro Guard: Defense increased by 50% for one hit. When hit, this unit is also healed for Y HP.
When the target is hit, they regain HP (Y) with 35% of the caster's Power, at the time this buff was applied. A charge is also consumed. Always starts with 1 charge when applied, or re-applied, to a unit. The duration ticks down when the target ends their turn, and the buff will expire after 3 turns, regardless of how many charges are left. This buff is considered to be a positive buff.

Trivia[]
- The "X HP" part of the in-game description is indeed not colored green, just like Vitamin Spray. Like the latter, the buff description has this part colored.
