Glaceon Guide
In Legends: Arceus, Glaceon has a 525 base stat total and ranks as B-Tier: a solid option in Legends: Arceus for the right team. It works best as a wallbreaker. Auroraveil with Leftovers is the standard set.
In Legends: Arceus, watch for Infernape (Fire), Machamp (Fighting), and Aerodactyl (Rock) when using Glaceon. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Steel-type attackers are also a problem.
Snow Cloak increases evasion to 1.25× during hail. That's the one you want on Glaceon. Ice Body is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses.
In Legends: Arceus, Glaceon fills the wallbreaker role. It's a special attacker with base 130 Sp. Atk. At base 65 Speed, it won't be moving first often. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.
In Legends: Arceus, run Auroraveil, Protect, Ice Beam, and Helpinghand on Glaceon. Auroraveil is the most common pick at 21% usage. This set covers the wallbreaker role with a mix of damage and utility.
Game Availability
Glaceon has been available in 14 games since Diamond & Pearl, though obtaining it requires an item-based evolution. This extra step makes it less common than Pokemon found through standard wild encounters.
