Melony uses Ice-type Pokémon. Her team includes a Level 40 Frosmoth, a Level 40 Darmanitan (Galarian Form), a Level 41 Eiscue, and a Level 42 Lapras (Dynamax). Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel-type moves are super effective. Your Fire starter's final evolution, Cinderace, is a powerhouse here. Machamp (Fighting) or Gigalith (Rock) are strong options. Be aware of Eiscue's Ice Face ability, which protects it from one physical hit. Lapras's Water Absorb ability makes it immune to Water moves.
