Regice Weakness

Type-wise, Regice takes extra damage from Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel. Regice's special bulk (base 200 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.

Pokemon Black 2 / Pokemon White 2

Regice Black 2 & White 2 Guide

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regice is a Legendary Pokemon rated B-Tier. At 580 BST, it hits hard. It excels as a tank. Ice Beam with Leftovers is the standard set.

  • Regice is a static encounter at Unova Underground Ruins in Black 2 & White 2. Regice appears at level 65. Prerequisite: Requires Iceberg Key. Save before the encounter. These one-shot Pokemon don't respawn if you knock them out or run out of Poke Balls.

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regice's biggest threats include Charizard (Fire), Hitmonlee (Fighting), and Tyranitar (Rock), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Steel-type attackers are also a problem. Regice has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • Clear Body is the go-to ability for Regice. It prevents stats from being lowered by other Pokémon. Its hidden ability Ice Body can work in specific setups.

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regice fills the tank role. It's a special attacker with base 100 Sp. Atk. Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

Game Availability

Regice has appeared in 15 games since Ruby & Sapphire, spanning 8 generations. As a Legendary, it's typically a one-per-save encounter tied to the story or post-game content.
