No resistances

It's good offensively, but hot trash defensively. Most useful as coverage, since being an ice type is an hindrance more than anything unless the mon has a super high speed.

Still better than bug at least

Stealth rock exists
Its hard to be a good type when most of your representives have 75% hp.

Yes, it's perfectly OK to just be OK.

>He thinks a one-hit KO move proves anything

>pokemon actually TELLS YOU WHAT EFFECTIVENESS YOUR MOVES ARE NOW
holy cancer

>NOOOO THAT THING ICE TYPE IS GOOD AT DOESN'T COUNT
every time with schizos who don't play the game

>Ice is bad
>Well what about that?
>But that’s banned!

>ice type is back
Back to what exactly?

If the only thing ice is good at only hits 30% of the time, then ice is only 30% good.
But there's also only 20 ice-types that can learn Sheer Cold out of 51 ice-types in total, or about 39%.
So if 39% of ice-types are good 30% of the time, that would mean ice-types are approximately 12% good, if we're being generous and rounding up.

>literally three things shown in that webm that ice is good at
>I-IT'S ONLY GOOD 30% OF THE TIME
lol ok shitter, maybe one day you'll decide to play the game

Gawking at webms from 2 years ago is not playing the game.
Aurora Veil is only good on Alolan Ninetales, and maybe Vanilluxe. Abomasnow and Aurorus are irredeemably bad because of their secondary typing paired with Ice, Aurora Veil needs hail to work.
Blizzard isn't even exclusive to ice-types.

>[good move] is only good on [good pokemon]
Wow user! Thanks for stating the obvious for literally every move in the game.

>Aurora Veil needs hail to work
Damn...if only there were some ability that automatically sets hail that ice types had access to.....

>Blizzard isn't even exclusive to ice-types.
Damn...if only there was some advantage ice types got for using blizzard....maybe something like a 50% damage boost.....

Defog counters screens

fpbp, OP is a fucking faggot

make it resist dragon and flying

easy fix

Wow, good thing the actual game isn't smogshit so practically no one runs defog.

>no resistances, no immunities so that already rules out so many pokemon that are meant to be defensive ice types (most of the dex)
>hail has basically no benefits outside of 2 moves, compare that to the other 3 weathers which have amazing buffs like boosting a specific types special defense or lowering the damage of water types
>most water types learn ice beam anyway so there's little competition for special attackers unless you have something to set yourself apart, like ninetails
it's bad and crippled against sneaky pebbles, but hey at least you're not current bug type.

So there's only 2 good ice types in the game? Good to know.
