Never-Melt Ice is generally a viable item for Ice-type Pokemon but sometimes you may think that Choice Band or Choice Specs may be the better item to use.
Advantage | Disadvantage | |
---|---|---|
Never-Melt Ice | ・20% damage boost to Ice-type moves ・Can use all moves |
・Only boost Ice-type moves |
Choice Band or Choice Specs | ・50% boost to Atk/Sp.Atk | ・Locked to one move |
The right held item to use will depend on the strategy you plan to do with your Pokemon.
If your Pokemon will only rely on one Ice-type move, then a Choice item will be the better option. If you think you need to cover the weaknesses of your Pokemon with other moves, then let it hold Never-Melt Ice so it can use non-Ice-type moves.
