Sneasel is a notable Dark and Ice-typed Pokemon. Sneasel is a usual Pokemon to see in Generation 2. This Pokemon deserves to see more play in the meta. There were no known abilities back in the Gold/Silver Pokemon games. Sneasel is weak to Bug, Fighting, Fire, Rock, and Steel-typed attacks.
Sneasel is popular Physical Sweeper. It tries to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. In the dark days prior to Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Return is a physical 0-base power Normal-type move (max 102 power at maximum happiness). ♦ Strength is a physical 80-base power Normal-type move that deals a nice amount of damage. ♦ Shadow Ball is a physical 80-base power Ghost-type move (20% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage). ♦ Metal Claw is a physical 50-base power Steel-type move (10% chance to raise your Sneasel's attack by 1 stage). ♦ Dig is a physical 60-base power Ground-type move (digs underground turn 1, strikes turn 2). ♦ Mud-Slap is a physical 20-base power Ground-type move (100% chance to lower the target's accuracy by 1 stage).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
