Every type has its standouts. Which Ice-type Pokémon do you think deserves the MVP title - and what earns them that spot?

    @Lonestar85 made me realize this

    Alolan Ninetales

    It has advantage over many types, its ability can easily make it overpowered

    The types it has advantage over it absolutely dominates

    It has a wide variety of attacks

    And it is fast

    Like, the Speed number is insane (in my opinion)

    My reply is incoming(via approval) but here's a teaser: Will it be Alolan Ninetales? Magic 8-Ball says unlikely.

    As much as it pains me to say this(I do love Alolan Vulpix and Alolan Ninetales), there are better Ice Types. Cloyster, for example, is SCARY with Skill Link. Mamoswine is really good too, ditto Weavile if you want a true Glass cannon that is FASTER than even A.Ninetales or, from a competitive standpoint, two standouts that stand above the rest: Iron Bundle(arguably number 1) with Chien-Pao(runner-up). I didn't even mention the Pseudo Ice Type either in Baxcalibur.

    So to answer the MVP: Iron Bundle.

    For those interested… Wolfy did this awhile ago and had Chien-Pao number 1, Calyrex 2 and Alolan Ninetales 3. He had Iron Bundle 5, Mamoswine 4(hence why I had to mention it but also because it's a type combo I really like), Baxcalibur 7, Abomasnow 6, Weavile 8, Vanilluxe 9 and Lapras 10. His list is mostly based on how well they did competitively though. I won't lie that I struggled not to put Alolan Ninetales here but I know there are better Ice Types. Iron Bundle is just crazy fast… and Chien Pao's ability is just nuts.
