Offensive Ice Cream Set. (It honestly sounds weird writing it down).

It's regular ability - Ice Body - isn't very useful outside of Hail. I've selected the best possible egg moves, notably Water Pulse, which is a transfer-only egg move from Gen 4. I opted for Powder Snow instead of Ice Shard because this gelato's special. For the last egg move, it's either Magnet Rise or Iron Defense. The latter though is just like Acid Armor, which the ice cream learns naturally via level-up.

HP Fire is for the pesky steel-types.

With HP Fire, Water Pulse, and Freeze-Dry or even Flash Cannon (via level-up or TM), the ice cream actually has some decent coverage against a wide variety of types.

It sounds good

Agreed. Best possible set to use in the lower tiers.

It has to be KB though so if water pulse is transfer only that doesn't work, right?

I think glalie learns it via TM in gen 4. Then you just breed it with the ice cream cone.

Oh I didn't even read the serebii page and I assumed it was transfer only for vanillite, I derped, my bad.

I also agree with this set

Starting to breed this one. I went for Magnet Rise as the last egg move and since it has decent coverage over many types, Expert Belt is the better item.

Finished this set with a HP Fire IV Spread.
