Known as the "Freeze Pokémon," Articuno is revered for its ability to create blizzards by flapping its magnificent wings, often appearing to those lost in icy mountain ranges. Its natural habitat includes cold, remote areas like glaciers and snowy peaks, where it can be found soaring gracefully through the frigid air. Articuno primarily subsists on cold air and ice, thriving in environments inhospitable to most other life forms. In the games, it is often a powerful encounter for players seeking to complete their Pokédex or challenge powerful foes. In the anime, Articuno has appeared in various episodes and movies, often depicted as a guardian of its icy domain. Its elegant design and serene yet powerful demeanor have made it a fan favorite, symbolizing the beauty and danger of extreme cold. As a legendary Pokémon, it does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon. Its Ice typing makes it strong against Grass, Ground, Flying, and Dragon types, while its Flying typing offers advantages against Fighting, Bug, and Grass.
