Yay it's that stupid ice thing nobody likes

I like it
Regice
[Overview]
- Super-high Special Defense
-Good Defense and Special Attack
-Decent movepool
-Cursed by Ice-typing
-Many prominent Pokemon wreck it (Sawk, Magmortar, etc)
[Set 1]
name: Never Melt Ice
move 1: Ice Beam
move 2: Thunderbolt
move 3: Rest
move 4: Sleep Talk / Toxic / Seismic Toss
item: Leftovers
ability: Clear Body
nature: Bold
evs: 248 HP / 184 Def / 76 SpD
[Set Comments]
- Huge Special Defense requires little investment
- High enough uninvested SpA to make it pack a punch
- RestTalk is it's best option for staying alive
- Rapid Spin support is a must
- EVs give it the best physical bulk while also having an easier time standing up to Fire-types
[Additional Comments]
- Thunder Wave is an option to slow down foes that Regice (or it's teammates) can capitalize on
[Set 2]
name: Charge Beam
move 1: Charge Beam
move 2: Ice Beam
move 3: Focus Blast
move 4: Toxic / Thunderbolt
item: Leftovers
ability: Clear Body
nature: Modest
evs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpA
[Set Comments]
- Bulky enough with Max HP and uninvested SpD
- Max SpA gives it good starting power
- After a couple of Charge Beams, it gets very powerful
- Requires a ton of team support to be effective
[Additional Comments]
- Can use Hidden Power Fighting if Focus Blast's accuracy is not preferred
- Life Orb is an option, but it's usually better to keep Regice healthy
[Other Options]
- Choice Specs set is possible, but outclassed
- Amnesia can further boost it's SpD, but is really unnecessary
[Checks and Counters]
- Stealth Rock
- Powerful Fighting-type moves
- Sawk, in particular
- Taunt prevents him from healing
- Toxic ruins any Regice without Rest
