Articuno: Difference between revisions

'''Articuno''' (フリーザー, ''Furīzā'', '''Freezer''' in Japanese language versions)  is a fictional creature in the ''[[Pokémon (universe)|Pokémon]]'' media franchise.

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. In ''[[Pokémon Red]]'', ''[[Pokémon Blue]]'', ''Yellow'', ''FireRed'', and ''LeafGreen'' versions, Articuno appears at the Seaform Islands. It is a ice and flying-type Pokémon, and is one of the three legendary birds. It's first appearance was on ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'' versions.

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.

: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 Ice Beam and Blizzard. ([[Pokémon Red & Blue]] 09/98)
