Sandslash (Alola) in Emerald Imperium

Ice / Steel — where to catch it, what it learns, and how it differs from the official games.

Compared with the official games

Against the base species it is built from:

  • Stats Attack 100 → 110, Defense 110 → 120, Sp. Atk 45 → 25, Sp. Def 55 → 65 (total 450 → 460)
  • Type Ground → Ice / Steel
  • Abilities gains Slush Rush, Ice Scales and loses Sand Veil, Sand Rush

Compared against present-day official data. The Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived after Pokémon Emerald, so a difference here can belong to the series rather than to this hack.
