Froslass Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide
For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, we rate Froslass C-Tier: a niche pick in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon's meta. At 480 BST, it fits the hazard setter role. Destinybond with Focus Sash is the standard set.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Froslass's biggest threats include Blaziken (Fire), Rhyperior (Rock), and Gengar (Ghost), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Dark and Steel-type attackers are also a problem. With 5 weakness types, most competitive teams carry at least one counter. Froslass's base 110 Speed lets it outpace many threats and strike first, which matters more than trying to tank hits.
Snow Cloak is the go-to ability for Froslass. It increases evasion to 1.25× during hail. Its hidden ability Cursed Body can work in specific setups.
Base 110 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. On offense, Froslass is a special attacker with base 80 Sp. Atk. Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two. Best used as a hazard setter.
For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, the core moveset is Destinybond, Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, and Spikes. Destinybond leads at 0% usage. This set covers the hazard setter role with a mix of damage and utility.
