Regice Guide
In Sun & Moon, Regice is a Legendary Pokemon rated B-Tier. At 580 BST, it hits hard. It excels as a tank. Blizzard with Aguavberry is the standard set.
Clear Body is the go-to ability for Regice. It prevents stats from being lowered by other Pokémon. Its hidden ability Ice Body can work in specific setups.
In Sun & Moon, Regice fills the tank role. It's a special attacker with base 100 Sp. Atk. Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.
For Sun & Moon, the core moveset is Blizzard, Thunder, Protect, and Psychup. Blizzard leads at 25% usage. Blizzard provides reliable STAB damage.
Game Availability
