Sneasel -> Weavile dilemma

Submit Feedback or Error

My only Weavile is 1701 CP, 93% and 14 in stats across the board. The moveset on it is IS/FB. It's total crap as of right now, and I don't think I'll power it up unless I get Avalanche (which even then, Mamoswine will strictly outclass it). As of right now, I have no TM.

I have a Sneasel at 98%, 933CP, and 14a/15/15, and 112 candies. I currently have 1 Sinnoh Stone.

Other Ice-type options (instead of wasting the Sinnoh Stone on Weavile): 100iv Piloswine, about 1300CP and/or 2100CP Piloswine with 82iv. Both can be evolved once Mamoswine CD rolls out.

Should I wait for a TM and try to get Avalanche on my Weavile or evolve the Sneasel in hopes of a good moveset, evolve the Piloswines for next week (after the CD because i do not want Ancient Power), or even do none of these options? Advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I wouldn't stress about getting weavile right now, ice isnt too important to have for raids (unless this is about gyms and you see dragonite/salamence in gyms all the time), but mamoswine is coming soon, and we will be getting guaenteed sinnoh stones on its CD and the weekend, and mamoswine is the better ice attacker.

If you have a personal attachment to weavile, I wouldnt tm the already evolved one as weavile seems to be have a much better job as a dark attacker compared to its job as an ice attacker

yeah, after considering piloswine to mamoswine, i realized that it would be better anyways. i could have an extra sinnoh stone saved for the CD. thanks

I love my weavile for taking down dragons in gyms. He’s so fast. If they aren’t over level 30ish they can’t get even an outrage off.

Still, I think you’re right at waiting to see how Mamoswine turns out to be since there’s no rush for an ice attacker at the moment

Powder Snow and Avalanche should be deadly in gyms, and great in PvP too. Ancient Power is a gimmick move to give it a rock option that's fast for PvP. Bulldoze is probably more useful, and gets STAB.
