Strategy Overview
- Vanilluxe is one of the two available hail setters, which allows it to remove opposing weather, make use of 100% accurate Blizzard, and activate Alolan Sandslash's Slush Rush.
- It faces a lot of competition from Alolan Ninetales, which is faster, is more versatile, has a valuable secondary typing, and has a much better movepool.
- Vanilluxe's main advantage is its better physical bulk, lack of Poison-type weakness, and, most importantly, higher Special Attack.
- Vanilluxe's poor movepool means it's easily walled and very predictable.
- It is threatened by many common foes like Arcanine and Celesteela.
