Ice types are the best Dragon counters in the game!

WHY ICE MATTERS
- Super effective against 4 types: Dragon, Flying, Grass, Ground
- Dragon's biggest fear (most Dragons are 4x weak to Ice!)
- Ice Beam is one of the most useful coverage moves
- Many powerful Water types can learn Ice moves too

THE ICE TYPE PROBLEM
Ice has the WORST defensive typing:
- Weak to 4 types: Fire, Fighting, Rock, Steel
- Only resists 1 type: Ice
- Fragile — most Ice types don't last long defensively
- Solution: Use Ice offensively, not defensively!
