The pure compound HCl has a covalent bond, but when dissolved in water or some other solvents, HCl dissociates into ions. It is still not considered to have a ionic bond, however, because the ions formed by dissociation in a solution have no continuous particular neighboring ions, since all the ions are moving about within the entire solution volume.
