PvE Analysis

Shadow Glalie isn't the worst Ice Type, but if you're looking for Ice Type DPS then you may be better off purifying a high IV individual if you happen to get one and use it as a Mega Glalie. 

Best PvE Offensive Moveset

  • Frost Breath is slightly better than Ice Shard. If you have too many Fast TMs and are set on using offensive Shadow Glalie, you may as well change it; if not, it’s no big deal.

  • Avalanche is the only charge move an offensive Glalie should be using.

Best PvE Defensive Moveset

  • Rollout is the best option on defense.
  • Ice Shard is slightly better than Frost Breath. As with offensive Shadow Glalie, the difference is miniscule.

  • While Shadow Ball has better coverage, you may want to stick with Avalanche since it has such an early dodge window.

  • Gyro Ball isn't great, but it does come out relatively quickly and has some counter-coverage potential.

PvP Analysis

A very simple and straightforward moveset that allows Shadow Glalie to do what it does best: Ice, Ice, baby. Shadow Ball is a nice addition for some coverage in case Glalie gets into a hot mess. Unlike its sister counterpart Froslass, Shadow Glalie doesn't get STAB on Shadow Ball. 

Great League

Glalie doesn't fare extremely well in the Great League, and neither does Shadow Glalie.

Ultra League

Shadow Glalie doesn't have sufficient stats to perform well in Ultra League. Aside from the obvious wins against opponents weak to Ice, Glalie generally sees more losses than wins in this league.

Master League

There's better candidates than Shadow Glalie for Master League.
