The Ice type is one of the 18 Pokémon elemental types. It is mostly recognized as the bane of Dragon-type Pokémon as Dragon-type Pokémon are very vulnerable to Ice-type moves, and most final form Dragon-type Pokémon take quadruple damage from Ice-type attacks, as they are commonly part Flying-type. However, most Ice-type Pokémon tend to be very fragile, further induced by the plethora of weaknesses by types which excel at offense, namely Fire, Rock and Fighting.
