Watch out for Fighting, Fire, Rock, Steel-type moves when using Regice. These types deal super effective damage that can cut into Regice's performance.

Regice's moves get a damage boost in Snow weather. Take advantage of weather conditions to maximize your DPS in raids and gym battles.

Verdict

Collector's Pick
Regice is a Ice-type Pokemon with base stats of 179/309/190 (Atk/Def/Sta) and a max CP of 3,530. While it doesn't currently rank among the top raid attackers or PvP contenders, every Pokemon has its place in a trainer's collection. Regice may shine during specific events, in limited-format cups, or when new moves are added in future updates. For now, hold onto a good IV specimen but save your Stardust and Candy for more impactful investments unless you're a dedicated fan of this Pokemon.

Shadow vs Regular: Shadow Regice deals 20% more damage but takes ~20% more. For raids, Shadow is generally the better investment. For PvP, evaluate matchups carefully — the bulk loss can be significant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best moveset for Regice in Pokemon GO?
Regice has multiple viable movesets depending on the battle format. The ideal moveset varies based on whether you are using Regice for raids, gym battles, or PvP — check the moves section above for a full breakdown of each move's DPS, energy cost, and coverage.
What are Regice's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Regice is weak to Fighting, Fire, Rock, Steel-type moves. On the other hand, Regice resists Ice-type attacks, so avoid using those types against it. To counter Regice effectively in raids and gyms, build a team using its weakest type matchups and pick attackers that have STAB moves of those types.
What is Regice's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Regice's maximum CP is 3,530 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 3,122 at level 40. Reaching level 50 requires XL Candy, which is only available to trainers level 31 and above — earning XL Candy involves catching, hatching, transferring, and walking Pokemon. Regice's CP is calculated from its base stats: 179 Attack, 309 Defense, and 190 Stamina. Powering up from level 40 to 50 requires a significant investment of XL Candy and Stardust, so plan your resources carefully. A 100% IV Regice caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 1,784 CP, or 2,230 CP with weather boost (level 25).
What CP is a 100% IV Regice?
A perfect 15/15/15 IV Regice has the following CP at key levels: 1,338 CP at level 15 (research encounters), 1,784 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches), 2,230 CP at level 25 (weather-boosted raids), and 3,530 CP at level 50 fully powered up. If you catch a perfect IV Regice, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Regice ranks well in raids or PvP. A 100% IV (also called a "hundo") is the rarest IV combination, so tag and favorite it to make sure you don't accidentally transfer it.
Is Shadow Regice better than regular?
Shadow Regice deals 20% more damage than its regular counterpart but also takes 20% more damage. For raids, Shadow Regice is generally better due to the higher DPS output. For PvP, it depends on the matchup — the extra damage taken can be a significant drawback in extended battles where survivability matters. Shadow Regice comes with Frustration, which should be replaced with a Charged TM before powering up.
How to get Regice in Pokemon GO?
Regice can be found in the wild, though it may be rare depending on your biome and current events. Regice can also be obtained through trading with other trainers.
Can Regice be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Regice's availability depends on whether Niantic has released its shiny form. Not all Pokemon have their shiny forms available yet. Check the current events page and Community Day announcements for any updates on shiny Regice availability and boosted shiny rates during special events.
