Push Pokemon Around

This build focuses on using your abilities to crowd control enemies, and even reposition them! After you a hit Pokemon with Ice Fang, you can toss them in a particular designated direction! This means you can throw Pokemon into your teammates. Earthquake also acts as a good way to crowd control a larger number of enemies.

Burst Pokemon Down

This build focuses on isolating key targets with Ice Fang and having you and your teammates burn it down. For this reason, you could choose to forego some defensive items and include a Muscle Band here as well. We recommend the Razor Claw because of the extra burst it provides.

If the icicle shattered by Tackle of High Horsepower, the ground is covered in ice, which increase the movement speed of ally Pokemon that run over it. Cooldown: 10 seconds
Lv. 8	High Horsepower Has the user rush recklessly in the designated direction, edaling damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and shoving them. The user then stomps its feet, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and leaving them unable to act for a short time. This stomping deals increased damage to frozen Pokemon.

Defend Goals Effortlessly

The Icicle Crash + High Horsepower combo will make it so you drop a patch on the ground that boosts ally movement speed. In addition to this, the combo of using HH to stun foes inside your Icicle Crash area is very potent. Doing this in a goal will also cause the ice patch to reduce enemy goal scoring speed as well!

Freeze Enemies With Ice Fang

Mamoswine freezes its fangs to scoop and throw its opponents in the battle arena, dealing damage and leaving them unable to act for a short time. This is a great move to isolate and block enemies from scoring. When this move is used near the goal zones, it can freeze the area making the scoring charge slower.

High Horsepower To Charge Into Battle

Mamoswine rushes recklessly into his opponent in any direction and shoves them, dealing damage in the process. Mamoswine then stomps its feet, attacking anyone in the area of effect and leaving them unable to act for a short time. This stomping deals increased damage to frozen Pokemon.

Icicle Crash Enemies

Mamoswine can get aggressive with its unfortunate targets by dropping icicles on them, dealing damage in the process, and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. The final icicle shatters after a set amount of time dealing another additional damage and leaving anyone in the area of effect frozen for some time.

Earthquake Shake Opponents

Shake up your enemies with an Earthquake! Mamoswine leaps up and then land forcefully in the ground, creating tremors that deals damage to anyone caught in the area of effect and pulling them in. This is great for isolating and bursting down enemies so they won't escape Mamoswine.

Mamoswine - Strategy Guide

Mamoswine Strengths & Weaknesses

Recommended Lanes

The number of ★ shows the level on a particular route area.

Lane	Route Details
Top	Recommendation level: ★★★ The top lane is the most recommended route as Mamoswine can safely gain experience points. Since Swinub is not good at KO-ing wild Pokemon quickly, it is recommended to pair up with an ally Attacker when farming Aipoms while protecting the goal area.
Middle	Recommendation level: ★・・ Although Swinub can earn a lot of experience points, its damage alone can't quickly KO wild Pokemon and may take time doing so. Its low mobility is also a setback as it may not clear spawns in the area fast enough nor move from either main lanes to assist when needed.
Bottom	Recommendation level: ★・・ In has poor early performance and often disadvantageous in the group battles that occur even before the first Drednaw appearance. This route is not recommended as it is difficult to protect the goal area.

Early Game (Lvl 1) Strategy

Early game Mamoswine (as Swinub) will be all about securing last hits with Ice Shard & Tackle. Tackle can also be saved to harass enemy laners. If you can distract the enemy enough for your lane partner to get the hit, you should consider that a win as well!

Watch Your Empowered Basic Attack

Although this rule applies for all Pokemon, it's particularly important for Mamoswine. Its third basic attack will freeze enemy Pokemon! This can be combo'd up with other moves that freeze, so it's important to always be monitoring your basic attacks! If you're not sure how to check out the visual indicator for empowered attacks, check our settings article for more info!

Mid Game (Lvl 6) Strategy

You will evolve into Piloswine and get your first move at the relatively late level 6. It will be important to stay aware of enemy power spikes to decide if you should engage. In general, it's better to hang back and get experience in preparation for the 7:00 Drednaw fight.

Choose Icicle Crash or Ice Fang

Lv 6 (Choose One)
Icicle Crash Hindrance Drops icicles on the designated location, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. The final icicle shatters after a set amount of time or when hit by another user's other moves or boosted attacks, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and leaving them frozen. If the icicle is shattered by Tackle or High Horsepower, the ground is covered in ice, which increases the movement speed of ally Pokemon that run over it. Cooldown: 10 seconds
Ice Fang Hindrance Uses cold infused fangs to throw the opposing Pokemon closest to the user, dealing damage and leaving the Pokemon frozen for a short time. The user can then designate a direction to slam the thrown Pokemon forward or backward, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and leaving them frozen for a short time. Cooldown: 8 seconds

Late Game (Lvl 8+) Strategy

Level 8 is when you'll get access to your second move, allowing you to pull off more effective combos. You should try to aim to get this before the first Drednaw fight (7:00) if possible (though it won't always be).

Choose High Horsepower or Earthquake

Lv 8 (Choose One)
High Horsepower Dash Has the user rush recklessly in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and shoving them. The user then stomps its feet, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and leaving them unable to act for a short time. This stomping deals increased damage to frozen Pokemon. Cooldown: 8 seconds
Earthquake Dash Has the user leap up in the designated direction and then land forcefully, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and pulling them toward the user. Cooldown: 7.5 seconds

Icicle Crash + High Horsepower Combo

These two moves have a very important interaction to note: Shattering the icicle with High Horsepower will cover the ground in ice, increasing ally movement speed. Additionally, you'll trigger the Icicle's final effect (freezing the enemy) by doing this as well! Note that your buffed basic attack will also freeze, so you'll want to stagger these effects to maximize crowd control!

Ice Fang + Earthquake Combo

Although these two moves don't have a particular interaction, they can work well to isolate/crowd control a specific target. Engage with Earthquake to pull an enemy in. Then, hit them with Ice Fang and toss them behind you. This will proc your passive, letting you freeze the target again on your next auto attack. Provided you have assistance from your team, this combo should be enough to take out most Pokemon.

High Horsepower + Ice Fang Combo

This combo pair works well for pushing away a group of Pokemon then isolating one to take out. Note that since Ice Fang will give you a boosted auto proc, you'll want to have one ready right when you charge in using High Horsepower.

Earthquake + Icicle Crash Combo

This move pairing emphasizes AoE damage and crowd control. Hitting the Icicle Crash with Earthquake will of course cause it break and freeze enemies, but in addition to this, you'll have the pull-in effect from Earthquake as well. This will let you land auto attacks on the frozen target even faster.

How To Use Unite Move: Mammoth Mash

Mammoth Mash is a powerful move that will make you immune to hindrances temporarily and also deal damage! The best times to use this move are when enemies are clumped together. The ideal place is of course the Legendary Pit when facing Zapdos. If using the Buddy Barrier, remember that it also becomes a defensive cooldown for you AND a partner.

Mamoswine - Timing Specific Guide

What To Do At Every Stage Of The Game

This section will teach you specific Wild Pokemon kill orders, as well as exactly what to do at various stages of the game.

10:00~9:40

You can use either Ice Shard or Tackle to clear the initial Apom spawns. However, between the 2, Ice Shard has the higher damage making it easier to clear the rest of the spawns. With that said, it is recommended to get Ice Shard first so you can quickly clear your lane.

9:40~7:00

If you find yourself competing for Wild Pokemon camps with the enemy team, you can use Tackle to disable the enemy team, allowing your ally to land a last hit. Another thing is that battling Drednaw as a Level 5 Pokemon can be pretty difficult. Gain more experience using the top lane before heading towards the bottom.

7:00~Until Defeating 1st Drednaw

As Mamoswine is a Defender with high damage resistance, always stay ahead of your team during a team fight. If you find yourself being critically damaged, use Tackle to escape and heal. Once you get Earthquake, try to be aggressive and land straight in the middle of the enemy team to go on the offensive.

• Drednaw Guide
• How To Heal

After Defeating 1st Drednaw～Zapdos Fight

Upon reaching level 10, Mamoswine's stats increases significantly and you also get access to its Unite Move, Mammoth Mash. Try to reach Level 10 as soon as you can by farming Wild Pokemon. As Mamoswine's Wild Pokemon clearing speed is not that great, it is best to clear spawns with an allied Pokemon.

Battle With Zapdos

Save your Unite Move for the final encounter with Zapdos. Consider saving the move to try to get a last hit on Zapdos. Given that it makes immune to hindrances, you'll likely be able to do massive damage unopposed. If you're running a Buddy Barrier, this will be even more true here.
