Articuno is an Ice/Flying-type Pokémon and one of the Legendary birds, the others being Zapdos and Moltres. It spawns from a frozen shrine, found in Cold Taiga, Ice Mountains, Ice Plains, Ice Plains Spikes, when a fully-charged orb of frozen souls is placed in its centerpiece.

Articuno is a legendary bird Pokémon that can control ice. The flapping of its wings chills the air. As a result, it is said that when this Pokémon flies, snow will fall.
