    Why muscle band? An attack item to a special pokemon?

    Yes I really agree with you But still don't you think there matchup and counters guides are wrong I think ninetails can beat more Pokemon

    people really sleeping on how busted avalanche > blizzard is. in a game so centered on mobility, the ability to just send people to the CC dimension is pretty insane. avalanche > blizzard > unite outright deletes squishies, which is especially relevant at zap since they’ll often have no chance to use their ult.

    Personally I think Dazzling Gleam & Blizzard are a must, avalanche is just BAD that skill is literally useless in comparison. Mobility is inherently Ninetails main issue, she will be destroyed by a Lucario, Absol, Gengar, etc, but not if you play it right. This is WHAT your unite ability is for. Say your enemy team is majority speedy f*ks then take the L, but Dazzling gleam disabling opponents, and blizzard knocking them back and freezing, you can’t get better utility and damage than that.

    I think (after the patch update 1.4.1.7) ALOLAN NINETAILS can defeat ELDEGOSS, I am saying it because I have a experience of playing NINETAILS (I have played more than 400 battles with NINETAILS) and in ranked match I have defeated many ELDEGOSS. So, please check it once.

    I think this pokemon is much more of a support than a attacker imo

    11 Anonymous Anonymous over 3 yearsReport

    Aurora Veil + Dazzling Gleam is the best moveset in my opinion. Since the patch (1.4.1.7) adds the leap and ability to heal, Aurora Veil is now Alolan Ninetales' only mobility move. Dazzling Gleam, which stuns opponents, also helps with the freezing.

    Also aurora veil, even with the BA buff it still doesn't do that much damage to most all-rounders, only option is unite which has a VERY, VERY VERY LONG COOLDOWN.

    9 kewlboi kewlboi over 3 yearsReport

    Agreed, honestly 9tails is weak to short ranged attackers mainly because it doesn't have very good options for short range other than Blizzard which itself has a cooldown and can't be spammed until late game.

    Lucario can shred Ninetales with mobility moves. Same as Greninja. Ninetales should be weak to both of them too. Slowbro can negate Ninetale's damage too.

    7 Anonymous Anonymous almost 4 yearsReport

    The vote literally says Avalanche and Blizzard and there you wrote Best Moveset: Dazzling Gleam and Aurora Veil. That's very different.

    6 Anonymous Anonymous almost 4 yearsReport

    So Ninetales is weak to Eldegoss because before Ninetales can even set up, Eldegoss has prepared the heals and shields he and his team needs. Paired with Damage Dealers from the likes of Venusaur or Tsareena, Ninetales gets shredded. A hard loss for Ninetales.

    Oh this image is my friends profile

    4 DamarPW DamarPW about 4 yearsReport

    Oh also my fav moveset is avalenche and aurora veil cuz i like using avelenche to block opponets from goals and attacking me and auroraveil for support

    3 DamarPW DamarPW about 4 yearsReport

    Avalanche and aurora veil the moveset i use MOst for support and blizzard amd dazzling gleam for ofense amd avalance and blizzard for a lil defense and offense

    2 Runerigus5  Runerigus5  about 4 yearsReport

    as a pokemon unite player when i pick an attacker rolled pokemon, i feel like there should be some "oomph" in there attacks. And with Alolan Ninetales I find this moveset matching my ways of describing attack pokemon

    Blizzard and avalanche is a good way to build defence. It's also a good way of freezing. Although none of my used abilities provide support, I use supporter roles to do just that.
