Articuno

Articuno's typing is excellent offensively, allowing it to hit the majority of the tier neutrally with its STAB moves except for Steel-types. Articuno also has access to the rare Freeze-Dry, which allows it to hit Water-types super effectively and makes it even harder to switch into. Articuno's natural special bulk along with its access to Roost also allows it to act as a decent pivot, switching into weak special hits and then threatening the foe out. On the other hand, Ice / Flying is not good defensively, as Articuno has a variety of weaknesses and loses half of its health if it switches into Stealth Rock. On top of this, Articuno's Speed is somewhat average, which means that it is outpaced by common offensive threats.
