Mamoswine resembles a wooly mammoth crossed with a boar. Mamoswine's brown fur is very thick to endure harsh cold and protect from snow and ice, thus explaining both their {{a|Snow Cloak}} ability and {{a|Thick Fat}} hidden ability. Their tusks are made of pure, solid ice, and their massive body size is also helpful in preserving their own body heat. Mamoswine has a "mask" like pattern of coloration around their face, with a white rim and blue inside. The fur on its muzzle is tan and shaggy, and its nose, like its pre-evolutions', is also pig-like, if somewhat less so. Mamoswine's feet are black in coloration, with three thick claws, and its tail is small. Mamoswine exhibits a few {{type2|Ground}} characteristics, such as its sturdy body and powerful physique.

Mamoswine have incredibly strong physical force. Their sturdy body and feet enable them to cross even the most dense and dry snow. Mamoswine are able to endure harsh cold and hunger for an almost indefinite amount of time, as indicated by a ten-thousand-year-old specimen waking up much to the amazement of those who discovered it.

Thanks to its dual Ice/Ground typing, Mamoswine is the only fully evolved Pokémon not affected by either {{m|Hail}} or {{m|Sandstorm}} (not including Pokémon who have abilities that negate weather effects). It's typing also allows it to reap the most benefits out of {{a|Thick Fat}} by removing it's {{type2|Fire}} weakness.
