Best moveset for PvP

The best moveset to teach Shadow Regice in PvP consists of Lock-On as a Fast Move and Blizzard as a Charged Move.

The thing with pure Ice types is that the Go Battle League is filled with Fire creatures that can melt your icy Pokemon in seconds. But if you’re adamant about taking Shadow Regice for a spin, use Lock-On as a Fast Move for better energy generation.

Despite dealing almost no damage, Lock-On’s fast energy generation will allow you to access your Charged Move sooner. Luckily, all of Regice’s Charged Moves are outstanding, and even though they are expensive, they can help you target a wide range of opponents as you have four different types of moves to choose from.

The obvious pick is to go with Blizzard to benefit from an additional 20% damage from STAB. However, if you can add a secondary Charged Move, go with Thunder or Earthquake.

Best moveset for Raids

Regice’s best moveset for Raid battles is Frost Breath as a Fast Move and Blizzard as a Charged Move.

Unlike in PvP, the most effective moveset for Regice in Raid battles requires Frost Breath as the Fast Move instead of Lock-On. This is because Frost Breath benefits from STAB and has better synergy with Blizzard.

As mentioned above, Regice’s Charged Move will always depend on the enemy. However, in Raid encounters it is always better to play to the Pokemon’s type, so go with the Ice choice, Blizzard.
