 ==Characteristics==
 ===Defense===
-The Ice type is considered by many to be the worst of all types defensively. It only resists itself and is immune to [[Freeze (status ailment)|freezing]], while carrying weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Steel}}. Additionally, double weaknesses are common amongst Ice types, especially to the {{t|Fighting}} type. As a result, most Ice types have more weaknesses than resistances.

-Ice-type Pokémon are also immune to the damage caused by {{weather|hail}}, although it is lack of additional defensive benefits, unlike the other weather conditions.
+However, some Ice types, such as {{p|Avalugg}}, have high defenses in order to compensate for their many weaknesses, which can help them withstand {{DL|Damage modification|super effective|super-effective}} attacks and remain on the field longer.
