Snow Cloak raises the pokemon's evasion by 20% in a hail storm. It also gives immunity to damage by hail (if they are not already protected by being Ice type).
If a pokemon with Snow Cloak is leading the party pokemon while travelling in a hail storm/blizzard, wild pokemon are only half as likely to appear.
