[SET COMMENTS]

Froslass is a premier suicide lead Spikes setter on Ghost-teams. A high base 110 Speed stat alongside access to Taunt also allows Froslass to prevent opposing entry hazards from the likes of Ferrothorn and Bronzong and to prevent Defog from Pokemon such as Mandibuzz. Icy Wind is used to slow down faster Pokemon such as Barraskewda and Choice Scarf Excadrill, allowing Froslass to potentially take them out the next turn with Destiny Bond. However, Will-O-Wisp can be used over Destiny Bond to cripple physical attackers such as Grimmsnarl. Focus Sash allows Froslass to survive any one hit and set one layer of Spikes.

Froslass is mainly used on hyper offensive Ghost teams; Pokemon such as Polteageist, Mimikyu, Dragapult, Gengar, and Aegislash all take advantage of Spikes support, as they appreciate chip damage racking up on opposing Pokemon. Froslass can also form an entry hazard setting core with Stealth Rock users such as Runerigus to further stack hazards. Watch out for priority users such as Mimikyu and Aegislash, as they can OHKO Froslass if Focus Sash is not intact; faster threats such as Weavile and Dragapult also outspeed and OHKO Froslass. Faster hazard setters such as Ribombee can freely set up Sticky Web before Froslass is able to use Taunt on them.

Run another example of a Defog user over Corviknight. It runs Bulk Up on both types I think, and you're not setting Spikes against Flying anyways if it does run Defog.

Galarian Corsola should be listed as a partner for hazard stack, it's much better than Runerigus. Gengar and Dragapult should also be mentioned, they're both offensive Pokemon that also like Froslass's Spikes.

Icy Wind is used to slow down faster Pokemon such as Dragapult, and Barraskewda allowing Froslass to potentially take them out the next turn with Destiny Bond.
- wouldnt use dragapult as an example since the main set on dragon has cb dragon darts

Froslass is mainly used on hyper offensive Ghost teams, therefore Pokemon such as Polteageist, Mimikyu, Dragapult, Gengar and Aegislash all take advantage of Spikes support as they appreciate chip damage racking up on opposing Pokemon . Froslass can also form a hazard setting core with Stealth Rock users such as Galarian Corsola and Runerigus to further hazard stack the opponent.
- you say froslass is used on ho then go out and mention corsola galar, i guess runerigus can work but not the first


Priority users such as Mimikyu, Aegislash, and Bisharp can OHKO Froslass if Focus Sash is not intact.
- wouldnt use bisharp as an example since you would set spikes or dbond/wow it. also use more than ghost types as examples of priority users. would also include fast pokemon/scarf users

Froslass is a premier suicide lead Spikes setter on Ghost-teams. A high base 110 Speed stat (RC) alongside having access to Taunt also allows Froslass to prevent opposing entry hazards from the likes of Ferrothorn and Bronzong (RC) and to prevent Defog from Pokemon such as Mandibuzz. Icy Wind is used to slow down faster Pokemon such as Barraskewda (RC) and Choice Scarf Excadrill, (AC) allowing Froslass to potentially take them out the next turn with Destiny Bond. However, Will-O-Wisp however, can be used in the last slot over Destiny Bond to cripple physical attackers such as Grimmsnarl. Focus Sash allows Froslass to survive any one hit and set one layer of Spikes.
