Ice Shard Effect

Has the user hurl chunks of ice in a forward direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon they hit and leaving them frozen for a short time. If this move hits an opposing Pokemon that is already frozen, it deals damage to it and shoves it.

How to Use Ice Shard

Set Up Early Knockouts

Use Ice Shard to set up knockouts in the early game. The move's freezing effect and range makes it easy to keep targets in place long enough for allies to follow up.

Utilize the Shoving Effect

Utilize Ice Shard's shoving effect by using it facing opposite of the target. Since enemies that are already frozen gets shoved back when they get hit by Ice Shard, shoving them towards Lapras' allies is the best way to use the move.
