>>37408008Depends who got it, I could see Froslass and Vanilluxe becoming pretty good if they got it, Froslass has a great movepool and typing while the latter has Snow Warning which gives it Blizzard and Sash breaking potential. It will take more than a single move to fix the Ice type however. i've said it before but the following needs to happen in order for Ice to become good, the biggest issue is that there is just zero reason to use a Ice type when you can just use a water type.
>Ice resists Ground and possibly Flying or ElectricIt needs a resistance that isn't itself, to me Ground just feels right but Flying or Electric might work. I don't think Ice needs too many resistances though, 3 at most (Including itself). It should be the glass canon type.
>Lose the Rock weaknessIt's literally weak to Rock for no good reason, and please don't give me the bullshit Ice Age > Stone Age > Iron Age shit. There is no reason for Ice to be weak to Rock all it does make it shittier in both doubles and singles due to stealth rock and rock slide. Fuck the rock type and fuck rock cunts.
>Ice Beam nerfed to 70 BP and a new 90BP Special Ice type move introducedSo many things learn Ice Beam there is no reason to run an Ice type since most of the things you want to hit are x4 weak to Ice and die regardless of STAB. A new move that every Ice type and a some other non-Ice types could learn would be great (but not nearly as much as Ice Beam, think of the Pokemon that get T-Bolt that aren't Electric types) This would also nerf water types (Which is needed since they're too strong) and make grass types stronger against them and worry less about dying despite the type advantage. Ice Beam would also lose it's 10% chance to freeze and that would be given to the new 90 BP Ice move.
Also stop making every Ice type slow and bulky for fucks sake.
