Is Regice good in Pokemon GO PvP and PvE?

Long story short, Regice is not a Pocket Monster you'd want for climbing the ranked ladder in GO Battle League or as an attacker in PvE battles.

In the Great and Ultra League, the critter has some play as a closer, but it is still outclassed by other Ice-types who bring a lot more to the table. In the Master League, it is mediocre, at best, in any role, and if you want to invest resources to succeed in this format, you are better off putting them elsewhere.

Being a Legendary, Regice can't be a Gym defender in Pokemon GO. With only 179 points in its Attack slot, it is unsurprisingly overshadowed by powerful Ice-type attackers like Kyurem, Shadow Mamoswine, Shadow Weavile, Baxcaibur, etc.
