Stats & Training
The stat budget goes to damage. Speed and Attack carry the offense, HP doesn't even come close. A Snow Land Pokemon on a medium-fast 1M XP curve, worth 2 Speed EVs per KO.
A Pokémon inhabited by the soul of a woman who died bearing a grudge in the snowy mountains. Legends of Froslass placing deathly curses on misbehaving men send shivers down my spine.

Froslass Guide
For Legends: Arceus, we rate Froslass C-Tier: a niche pick in Legends: Arceus's meta. At 480 BST, it fits the hazard setter role. Shadow Ball with Focus Sash is the standard set.
In Legends: Arceus, Froslass's biggest threats include Blaziken (Fire), Rhyperior (Rock), and Gengar (Ghost), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Dark and Steel-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter. Froslass's base 110 Speed lets it outpace many threats and strike first, which matters more than trying to tank hits.
Snow Cloak is the go-to ability for Froslass. It increases evasion to 1.25× during hail. Its hidden ability Cursed Body can work in specific setups.
Base 110 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. On offense, Froslass is leaning toward the physical side (base 80 Attack). Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a hazard setter.
In Legends: Arceus, the best way to handle Froslass: Super-effective STAB from faster Pokemon is the simplest answer. Fire, Rock, and Ghost-type attackers hit hardest.
