Avalanche Effect

Avalanche In-Game.jpg

Attacks with a gush of chilly ice toward the designated area. The ice forms a wall that cannot be passed through on land. After a short time, this wall melts and collapses, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of effect.

Wall Lasts for 1 Second

Avalanche's wall lasts only for 1 second before disappearing.

How to Use Avalanche

Block Paths

Pokemon UNITE - Alolan Ninetales Blocking Talonflame

You can utilize the wall to block the enemies' path offensively or defensively, obstructing their escape route or preventing them from chasing allies or yourself.

Remember that you can decide where the wall would be placed by aiming it manually.

Always Push Enemies Towards the Wall

Pokemon UNITE - Alolan Ninetales Using Avalanche on Slowbro and Pikachu

To maximize Avalanche's damage and effect, try to find ways to push enemies towards the wall, ensuring that they get damaged when the wall explodes. The easiest way to accomplish it is to knock enemies back using Icy Wind or Blizzard.

Although it requires proper coordination, you can also rely on your allies' moves to knock back enemies or disable them near the wall.
