Friendly reminder that fast hail teams will be a thing in SM.

Hoping for new HA version of Chlorophyl and Sand Rush.
Name Ice-Skate maybe? Snow Sled?

it has sand rush you dumb fuck. The problem is that its just outclassed by excadrill. Now, if it had a theoretical snow rush, and got icicle crash + EQ it could be a legitimately threatening offensive hail attacker. Especially considering that it's stealth rock neutral and has rapid spin it would actually go a long way to making hail a decent tactic.

Let's say its speed will be lowered from 65 to 50, it'd still reach 436 speed at level 100, which is equal to 149 base speed.

You know what, Sandslash is going to be a great staple on my ice teams now.

It'll be threatening in the low tier it will be in. Only obscenely good pokemon with an ice typing can make it into ou or even uu and even then none pop into my head other than Weavile and Mamoswine.

Genesect, Ferrothorn and Tyranitar say hi.
A 4x weakness isn't a death sentence.

Better not use Scizor because of that x4 fire weakness. It can't be a threat with such a crippling weakness!

>Genesect
600 BP, Download and fast U-turn
>Ferrothorn
nine resistances with only two weaknesses, strong defenses, two good attacking moves and lots of utility
>Tyranitar
600 BP, sandstorm further boosting its special defense, great movepool allowing it to be a mixed attacker

What will Snowslash have?

Snow Rush Sandslash feels pointless, they even said it will have lower speed than normal Sandslash. It won't be particularly fast even with the boost.
Snow Warning Ninetales on the other hand sounds nice.

I honestly hope Ninetales gets something a bit more Yokai-ish.

Like an auto-Terrain move (Misty Terrain, or some new Snowy Terrain effect).
