===Offense===
Offensively, because the fact that double weaknesses to Ice are fairly common, especially due to {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Flying}} types, Ice is one of the most commonly-used attacking types. Ice also pairs well with other common attacking types, notably {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Electric}}. Some Ice-type Pokémon can use a few {{type|Water}} moves, which cover their weaknesses to Fire and Rock.
Offensively, because the fact that double weaknesses to Ice are fairly common, especially due to {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Flying}} types, Ice is one of the most commonly-used attacking types. Ice also pairs well with other common attacking types, notably {{t|Ground}}, which covers all of Ice's weaknesses except Fighting, and {{t|Electric}}, which covers Ice's ineffectiveness against Water. Some Ice-type Pokémon can use a few {{type|Water}} moves, which cover their weaknesses to Fire and Rock.


{{type|Water}} Pokémon are often compared with Ice-type Pokémon, as most of the former can also effectively use Ice attacks, which cover their major weakness of {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Dragon}}, which resist their moves. However, some Ice types have an advantage over Water types due to the introduction of {{m|Freeze-Dry}} in [[Generation VI]] (an Ice-type move that is exclusively learned by Ice types), as it can deal {{DL|Damage modification|super effective|super-effective}} damage to most Water types.
