Offensive Moves Explanation

• Alolan Ninetales needs Powder Snow to be a Dragon-type counter.
• Blizzard is on par with Ice Beam; this is up to personal preference.
• Dazzling Gleam is inferior, as many Dragon Pokemon are doubly weak to Ice but not Fairy.
• Feint Attack has no place on an offensive Alolan Ninetales. 

Defensive Moves Explanation

• Feint Attack is preferred over Powder Snow, due to higher base power and slightly better coverage.
• Dazzling Gleam edges out Ice Beam, with better coverage and base power, but a later damage window. 
• Blizzard has too high of an energy cost for effective defense.
