Do not waste turns on Ice (¼×) and Water (½×). Water/Ice and Ice/Water are the same typing: in battle the order of a Pokémon's two types makes no difference, so a Ice/Water search lands on this page too. Going the other way, Water and Ice moves between them hit Fire, Grass, Ground, Flying, Rock and Dragon super effectively, but Water takes reduced or no damage from both. 9 Pokémon have the Water/Ice typing: 8 species and 1 alternate form, first appearing in Generation 1 and spanning 4 generations to Generation 9. The highest base stat total is Iron Bundle with 570; the average across the group is 486. ## Abilities that change Water/Ice matchups Some Water/Ice Pokémon have an ability that overrides the type chart.
