Regice @ Custap Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: NaN Atk
- Endure
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast

Pretty much a good way to catch faster, frailer threats off guard. Endure to get to 1 HP, then get the jump on your opponent after activating Custap Berry with either Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, or Focus Blast depending on the situation.

I don't know if this is a standard set or not, but I'll post this anyways, because Regice has a barren movepool outside of BoltBeam and Focus Blast.

Regice @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 216 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA / 36 Spe
Modest Nature
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
- Rest

Basically this set strays from Regice's typical cleaning abilities via Rock Polish, and instead acts as a great check to most special attackers in the tier, thanks to its gigantic 200 SpD stat. One big issue with Regice however is its lack of recovery, and the coverage it misses out on when using Sleep Talk over Focus Blast, so I decided to just slap on a chesto berry to keep Focus Blast coverage. With chestorest, Regice is able to switch in more often and be able to have much more staying power. This set is good on bulky offense looking for a check to a plethora of special attackers such as Haunter, Misdreavus, as well as Raichu and Chatot without rocks up. The speed ev's allow Regice to outspeed uninvested Gourgeist-Super and everything under, primarily Probopass and Piloswine, however more speed can be ran to outspeed Golem and 56 spe Poliwrath, which is where timid nature should probably be used to preserve some bulk.

Here we are... I'm now going to do an absolutely unexpected Regice... gimmicky as heck, but who cares?



Regice @ Chesto Berry / Leftovers
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Def
Adamant / Careful Nature
- Curse
- Avalanche
- Earthquake / Sleep Talk
- Rest

A lot of people complains about kinda depressing physical defense of our dear Regice... But with curse, you can patch that thing and be annoying as heck, restoring your HP with rest... After a few curses, your enemy will need to pray for a crit to beat it... Also if Jumpluff attack can be usable with some setup, how can we say that Regice's isn't usable too?

Ironically this kind of set can work because it can get into something that usually scares like Torterra and Tangela, and get a free curse to destroy the utterly common Ninetales (if running EQ of course)...

Actually after STAB and considering that Regice will move last almost always, it will do a nice amount of damage with Avalanche... So... Wynaut?

Some Offensive Calcs:
+1 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Zebstrika: 237-280 (81.4 - 96.2%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock
+1 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Ninetales: 103-122 (35.8 - 42.5%) -- 86.7% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock
+2 252+ Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Rotom-F: 112-132 (46.4 - 54.7%) -- 63.7% chance to 2HKO
+2 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Simipour: 158-186 (54.1 - 63.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
+1 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Golem: 260-308 (86.3 - 102.3%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO
+2 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 252 HP / 240 Def Eviolite Misdreavus: 159-187 (49 - 57.7%) -- 96.9% chance to 2HKO
+1 252 Atk Regice Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Rapidash: 242-286 (89.2 - 105.5%) -- 31.3% chance to OHKO
+2 252+ Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Lickilicky: 249-294 (58.7 - 69.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
+1 252 Atk Regice Avalanche vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Eviolite Machoke: 145-172 (39.8 - 47.2%) -- 0.4% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock


Some Defensive Calcs:

252+ Atk Life Orb Carracosta Stone Edge vs. +1 248 HP / 8 Def Regice: 273-322 (75.2 - 88.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Zebstrika Overheat vs. 248 HP / 0+ SpD Regice: 133-159 (36.6 - 43.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Ninetales Fire Blast vs. 248 HP / 0+ SpD Regice: 172-203 (47.3 - 55.9%) -- 67.2% chance to 2HKO
+2 252 SpA Simipour Hydro Pump vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Regice: 160-190 (44 - 52.3%) -- 18% chance to 2HKO
252 Atk Golem Rock Blast (3 hits) vs. +1 248 HP / 8 Def Regice: 150-186 (41.3 - 51.2%) -- approx. 1.2% chance to 2HKO
252 Atk Life Orb Rapidash Flare Blitz vs. +1 248 HP / 8 Def Regice: 283-335 (77.9 - 92.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
4 Atk Lickilicky Body Slam vs. 248 HP / 8 Def Regice: 81-96 (22.3 - 26.4%) -- 12.4% chance to 4HKO
252+ Atk Machoke Dynamic Punch vs. +1 248 HP / 8 Def Regice: 200-236 (55 - 65%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock


See ya guys!

I now introduce to you..... Gravity Regice!

Regice @ Life Orb
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Gravity
- Blizzard
- Thunder / Zap Cannon
- Focus Blast

So Gravity is actually a really cool move that often goes unnoticed because it's description on Showdown only says it negates all Ground-type immunities. What it doesn't say is that it also lowers all Pokemon's Evasion by 2 stages, making any move above 60% accuracy 100% accurate. Regice has great BoltBeam coverage along with Focus Blast (which never hits itself), but what if you could use Blizzard and Thunder instead without consequence? Well now you can, with Gravity, making all three of these moves 100% accurate. 252 Spe EVs allows you to outspeed 56 Speed Poliwrath, opposing Regice, and anything below (including Modest/Adamant Base 45s like Marowak and Golem).

Edit: Slashed Zap Cannon with Thunder, as it reaches is a level of accuracy that is actually viable, but still isn't 100%.

There isn't much of a reason not to run max speed on this set, as not tying other Regice really isn't worth the measly 4 extra hp that that spread gives you. (I think you meant to have more hp evs now that I look at it as this spread doesn't add up to 510 evs, but honestly I still don't see how the tiny bit of extra bulk you get is worth it.) This applies to tone's submission too, just not as much.

EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 Spe
Gentle Nature
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
- Explosion

252+ SpA Poliwrath Focus Blast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Assault Vest Regice: 84-102 (23 - 28%) -- 70.5% chance to 4HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Simipour Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Assault Vest Regice: 56-68 (15.3 - 18.6%) -- possible 6HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Zebstrika Overheat vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Assault Vest Regice: 78-94 (21.4 - 25.8%) -- 0.7% chance to 4HKO
