Strategy Overview
Ground
Mamoswine is a late-game cleaner for Ground teams due to its impressive Attack and access to priority in Ice Shard, giving it great value against Ice, Flying, Dragon, and opposing Ground teams. It also performs as a strong wallbreaker due to its nearly unresisted STAB combination. Mamoswine's typing, in combination with its ability Thick Fat, allows it to switch into Ice-type moves from Alolan Ninetales, Kyurem, Cloyster, or Arctozolt. Mamoswine, however, is fairly slow, so it must rely on Ice Shard to deal with faster foes. Its typing is horrible defensively, and its bulk is only average, which reduces the number of opportunities it gets to wallbreak. Lastly, Mamoswine's reliance on Choice Band to wallbreak effectively makes it easier to play around and take advantage of through scouting.
