ArticunoRoaring Skies #16 Pokémon Card

Articuno is a legendary Ice/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I, one of the three Kanto legendary birds alongside Zapdos and Moltres. Known as the "Freeze Pokémon," Articuno is said to appear to doomed people lost in icy mountains, offering a beacon of hope or a chilling demise depending on the legend. Its natural habitat is typically cold, mountainous regions, often dwelling in glaciers and remote, snow-covered peaks. Articuno’s diet is not explicitly detailed in the games or anime, but as a legendary bird, it likely sustains itself on energy from its environment or is not depicted as needing conventional sustenance. Its behavior is often portrayed as majestic and elusive, rarely interacting with humans unless compelled by extraordinary circumstances or a deep connection to its environment. In the games, Articuno is a powerful special attacker, often sought after for its strong Ice-type moves. In the anime, it has made several memorable appearances, often showcasing its immense power and grace. Articuno holds significant cultural importance as one of the original legendary Pokémon, symbolizing the untamed power of nature and the mysteries of the Pokémon world.
