The Pokémon Unite character roster is growing slowly but surely, and its latest addition is the massive mammoth Mamoswine. This ice and ground-type pocket monster evolves from Piloswine, and is the final form of Swinub. Mamoswine is a melee defender Pokémon with some pretty powerful moves, and will hopefully be the tanky beast we’re looking for.

With help from this guide, you’ll learn all about the Pokémon Unite Mamoswine moves, best items, build, and more. As Mamoswine is pretty new, we’re still trying out different builds, so we recommend you bookmark this page and check back from time to time if you’re interested in knowing more about this beast.

When the Pokémon uses Ice Shard, Icicle Crash, or Ice Fang, its next basic attack becomes a boosted attack. In addition, if any of these moves creates a freezing area of effect inside an ally goal zone, it decreases the goal-scoring speed of opposing Pokémon inside the goal zone.
