The best Max Battle tanks against Ice-type attacks in Pokémon GO. Every available tank is ranked by how well it takes Ice-type hits from Dynamax and Gigantamax bosses. Search eligible Pokémon and their recommended Fast Attacks, then compare tank scores and average HP lost per hit. The type here is the boss’s attack type, not your tank’s own type.

Dynamax RegiceTank scores measure how well a Pokémon takes hits from Dynamax and Gigantamax bosses. Higher is better.
Incoming damage is half a spread hit and half a targeted hit. The targeted half averages the best and worst dodge reductions. Each hit is rounded on its own.
Score = 100 × Dynamax Blissey’s average HP loss % across all types ÷ this Pokémon’s HP loss % against the selected type
Ties go to the Pokémon that fills the Max Meter faster, then to the one with more Max Attack damage.
The benchmark boss takes the median stats of 29 available Tier 5 Dynamax and Tier 6 Gigantamax bosses whose encounter profiles are verified. Each boss counts once, with its encounter and damage multipliers already applied.
Gigantamax Lapras is the best tank against Ice-type attacks with the current settings. It scores 149.2 and loses 17.6% of its HP per hit on average against the benchmark boss. Gigantamax Lapras has 174 base Defense and also resists Ice-type attacks, so it takes 39.06% of neutral damage before other modifiers and rounding.
Other top tanks against Ice-type boss attacks include Dynamax Lapras, Dynamax Walrein, and Dynamax Regice. Resistance to Ice-type attacks helps Dynamax Lapras, Dynamax Walrein, and Dynamax Regice take less damage.
Use Psywave on Gigantamax Lapras with the current settings. When two movesets are equally durable, the one that fills the Max Meter faster wins, then the one with more Max Attack damage. The Max Meter fills based on damage dealt and attack duration, and Charged Attack energy plays no part. An asterisk (*) marks a legacy Fast Attack.
