Good one, OP.

Give it wonder gua- nevermind, almost forgot it's an ice type.
It's beyond saving. You'd need to buff ice types as a whole.

Ice now resists Flying and Ground
Done, now it actually has shit to do. Short of changes to the type chart however, nothing would accomplish the goal here, OP
Much more sp. def + Ground typing + reliable ice move + Regenerator
ban everything from OU/UU/RU/NU to Ubers

this, but if we're limited to the games as they are, filter and icicle crash would help a lot.

There's your problem, senpai
>>32730043
Assault vest now also acts as a pseudo bulletproof. But now he can't recover...
Creating a decent hail user? Ice resisting water moves (but weak to scald a la freeze dry)? Give him a mega with filter AND be part-steel?

Easy Mode: New Ability that halves damage from Fire, Steel and Rock types.
Hard Mode: Give it Wish, Cosmic Power and/or Aqua Ring.

and fairy because fuck fairy
Make him ice/steel and make ice resistant to ground and flying.
Ice resisting Ground and Flying would actually do wonders for the metagame. The only types that resist Ground are weak to flying, and the only types that resist Flying are weak to Ground. Currently the only way to be safe from both is to be Flying or have Levitate and also be a type that resists Flying. Ice resisting them both at once would give them a huge niche, and an actual reason to be Ice type
Incognito Icicles as an exclusive move.
That was hard.

what the fuck is up with those stats?
Give it Filter.

I thik it's a chart of potential Megas
