Mega Abomasnow's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Mega Abomasnow PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Ice is a tricky type for Mega Evolutions since the Megas are not really meta. The top contenders are Legendaries like White and Black Kyurem, Shadow Pokémon like Mamoswine, and a Pseudo Legendary Baxcalibur. Mega Abomasnow and Mega Glalie toy around the base Mamoswine-esque DPS.

Even though Mega Glalie is the higher damage Mega, its pure Ice typing doesn't bring any uniqueness to the type that slaughters high flying Dragons, Ground and Grass Pokémon.

Mega Abomasnow, on the other hand, is actually the more useful Ice Mega Evolution, all credit going to its Grass subtyping. With this, Mega Abomasnow resists attacks from Grass and Ground type bosses, two types that Ice counters.

Now, consider bosses belonging to types like Grass/Flying, Grass/Dragon, Grass/Ground, Ground/Flying, and Ground/Dragon, and Mega Abomasnow not only deals double super-effective damage but also resists their STAB Grass and Ground moves. On top of that, Mega Abomasnow is quite tanky, and you actually have a super useful addition to your Ice team.

This also means that Mega Abomasnow is weak to Flying-type moves, so take care of that.

As a Grass Pokémon, it is quite subpar, and you should stick with other attackers.

📈 Should you max out Mega Abomasnow?

While you don't exactly need to max it out, you can power it up to whatever level your Stardust and Candy permits. It is super nice to use against Grass and Ground type bosses, especially if they have another type which results in a double weakness to Ice.

Its bulk is magnified in these battles, letting its Mega boost resonate and lead your team to a quicker victory.

Mega Evolutions aren't allowed in the GO Battle League typically, but in those limited formats where they are, it’s pretty good! ✅

The Ice type is always a win in this League anyway. 😄
