Read more ↓Eiscue is a peculiar Ice-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII, native to the Galar region. Known as the "Penguin Pokémon," Eiscue's most striking feature is its large ice block head, which serves a vital purpose in its survival. This ice block protects its heat-sensitive face, and if it breaks, the Pokémon must quickly form a new one, often by dipping into very cold water. Eiscue's natural habitat is typically cold, icy environments where it can easily maintain its icy head, such as the frigid waters and glaciers of the Galar region. Its diet consists primarily of small fish, which it catches using a unique hunting method: it dangles a single strand of hair from its head into the sea, acting as a lure to attract prey. Eiscue does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making it a standalone species. In the games, it's often encountered in snowy areas like Route 10 and the Crown Tundra. Its design, with the square ice block head, gives it a distinctive and memorable appearance, contributing to its charm and cultural significance among fans as a quirky and endearing Pokémon. Its unique mechanic in the video games, where its "Ice Face" ability allows it to take one physical hit without damage before losing its ice block, is cleverly reflected in some of its TCG card abilities.
