The tusks are made from solid ice instead of dentin like most teeth are. Mamoswine were much more common during the ice age but their numbers dwindled as the climate grew warmer.

Gender differences

Trivia

• Mamoswine would have been obtainable in both Generation II and Generation III if it had existed, as in both there was a possible way to get a Piloswine that had AncientPower. It shares this trait with Lickilicky.
• Mamoswine's Pokédex entry is a reference to how woolly mammoths became extinct.
• Not counting Cleffa, Clefairy, Clefable, Psyduck, Golduck and Rayquaza, who all have an ability that negates weather effects or damage from them, Mamoswine's evolutionary chain are the only Pokémon that are immune to both Sandstorm and Hail.
• Mamoswine and its pre-evolutions are the only Ice-types not weak to Rock, due to their part Ground-typing.
• Mamoswine's frontal sprites have gender differences, but its back sprites do not. The same happens with Roserade, and the opposite happens with Buizel, Floatzel, and Torchic.
• Mamoswine is the last Ground-type Pokémon in National Dex order.
• Mamoswine's evolutionary chain are the only Pokémon weak to the 3 starter Pokémon primary types: Fire, Water, and Grass.
