'''Articuno''' ({{ja|フリーザー|Furīzā}}, ''Freezer'') is a creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise.


==Origin==
'''Articuno''' (フリーザー, ''Furīzā'', '''Freezer''' in original Japanese language versions) is a [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] that comes out of a [[Poké Ball]]. In Pokémon ''[[Red]]'', ''[[Blue]]'', ''[[Green]]'', ''[[Yellow]]'', and ''[[FireRed and Leaf Green]]'' versions, Articuno appears at the Seaform Islands. It is a ice and flying-type Pokémon.  
[[File:144ArticunoRB.png|thumb|left|Articuno's official artwork from ''Pokémon Red and Blue''.]]
{{pkmn|Articuno}} is an Ice/Flying-type {{iw|Bulbapedia|Legendary Pokémon}} introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #144 as the "Freeze Pokémon". Along with [[Zapdos]] and [[Moltres]], Articuno is part of a trio commonly referred to as the {{iw|bulbapedia|legendary birds}}. Along with the other legendary birds, Articuno received a Psychic/Flying-type Galarian form in Generation VIII.


{{iw|bulbapedia|Icy Wind|move}} is an Ice-type special move with 55 base power and 95% accuracy, which affects all adjacent foes and reduces by one stage the Speed of every target. Unlike its ''Smash'' appearance, it cannot inflict the frozen status on foes. Articuno does not learn it naturally, but can learn it by {{iw|bulbapedia|TM16}} in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation II}} and by {{iw|bulbapedia|Move Tutor}} in several later games.
==Appearance==
{{clrl}}


==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
Articuno is one of the three legendary birds whose specific element is ice. It is a large bird that has enourmous wings that are all blue. The outer lining of its wings are a slight grayish-white color as well as its stomach. Frost can be seen around Articuno as it flies.
===As a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon===
[[File:Articuno_Pokeball SSBM.png|thumb|200px|Articuno on [[Final Destination]].]]
Articuno is a legendary Pokémon that can be summoned via a [[Poké Ball]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Articuno's appearance is rare due to its status as a legendary Pokémon, and general high power. Its chance of appearing out of a Poké Ball is highly increased in the [[event match]] [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Articuno uses Icy Wind as its attack, where it will unleash a blast of frost from its body. Any character in Icy Wind's attack radius will take 25% damage and be frozen for a few seconds, much like being affected by a [[Freezie]]. Characters that are affected by Articuno's Icy Wind will also be sent towards the top of the screen with very high [[knockback]], with most characters (except for [[fast faller]]s and most [[heavyweight]]s) being [[OHKO]]'d on [[Final Destination]]. Articuno's attack cannot harm the summoner.

|desc=Clouds gather, the barometer plunges, and fresh snow falls from the frigid air when this legendary Pokémon takes wing. Graceful and elegant, it boasts long tail feathers that flap in the wind and are lovely to behold. As would be expected, its combat moves are based on its cold nature; they include {{iw|bulbapedia|Ice Beam|move}} and {{iw|bulbapedia|Blizzard|move}}.

==In {{for3ds}}==
Articuno is a legendary Pokémon that appears out of Poké Balls in ''[[Melee]]''. Articuno's appearance is rare since it is a legendary Pokémon. Its chance of appearing out of a Poké Ball is doubled in the [[event match]] [[Event 37: Legendary Pokémon|Legendary Pokémon]]. Articuno uses Blizzard as its attack, where it will unleash a blast of ice from its body. Any character that is in Blizzard's attack radius will take damage and be frozen for a few seconds, much like being affected by a [[Freezie]]. Characters that are also affected by Articuno's Blizzard will be sent towards the top of the screen; lighter characters will have a good chance of dying at low percentages from this attack. Articuno's attack does not harm the summoner.
===Trophy===
Articuno only appears as a trophy exclusive to the 3DS version.

|desc-ntsc=The air around Articuno is always cool, and it can make snow fall on even the hottest of days. It must be the perfect Pokémon to have around in summer! Then again, do you really want to be the one to use a Legendary bird Pokémon as an ice machine? Let's just think this through for a minute.

* [[Articuno (trophy)|Articuno trophy]]
Articuno appears alongside [[Zapdos]] and [[Moltres]] as a Legend-class [[primary spirit]].


Articuno uses a cyan {{SSBU|Lucas}} puppet fighter, and is fought on the [[Find Mii]] stage's [[Battlefield form]]. He is fought along with the orange and red Lucas puppet fighters representing Zapdos and Moltres respectively. During the battle, the Lucas puppet fighters will reflect projectiles, referencing the Legendary birds' defensive abilities. The cyan Lucas puppet fighter also frequently uses [[PK Freeze]], referencing Articuno's Ice type.
