One of the oft-neglected Pokémon types is Ice; their attacks are great for taking down formidable Dragon-type opponents, but the typing leaves much to be desired in terms of defense. It’s for this reason that they have often struggled competitively and now even have to contend with Fairy Pokémon trying to take their spot on teams.
There are still plenty of cool choices among the coldest Pokémon though. Collectors have often sought them for their beauty and style even if they fell short in battles. Generation I included no pure Ice-type Pokémon but did introduce us to classics such as Jynx, Lapras, Articuno and more. Further generations only bolstered the number of Ice-types available and even added an Eeveelution to the mix.
Let us know in the comments below your favorite Ice-type Pokémon from each generation, any memorable anime episodes featuring the type and any other stories you remember!
I wanna apologize to @monkeyfuzz if i came up as rude on the trade thing… I am a better doe than that, deer…
No need to apologise, I get that I was asking alot. My sister had some time to help me move my stuff between games in the end so all was fine. Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, I wasn’t trying to be harsh or anything.
Have you met John Doe?
No, but i met Jhon Cena…
Well I failed my first drivers test. Was told I have a little work to do. will probably retake it Wednesday and if I fail again I will just renew my permit and retake it early next year so I can get some more experience. Have made a lot of progress though considering earlier in the year I was afraid of being on the road.
I don’t know that I could ever drive, I don’t think I’d have the confidence and it’s alot of responsibility. GL when you retry.
I understand what you mean completely. I have had an anxiety over it for the longest and just got more comfortable with it this year. One thing that helped that is that I want to get away somewhat from where I live due to some people I want to avoid if that makes any sense. And thanks really appreciate it! Btw advice don’t start driving until you feel you are ready! There is no shame in waiting
Ice types bleghhhh
They’re just another type I gotta worry about
There’s only a pocket full of Ice types that don’t make me dry heave
Crabominable
Avalugg
Mamoswine
Swinub is the cutest Ice type https://i2.wp.com/68.media.tumblr.com/37c27e4845a8556bed56c9b05d3cf026/tumblr_mgxm82rjmy1rtatqpo1_500.gif?resize=500%2C375&ssl=1
Undeniably
My favourite ice-types from 1-7.
Gen 1: Jynx
Gen 2: Delibird (lol the only G2 ice type)
Gen 3: Regice
Gen 4: Glaceon
Gen 5: Vanillish
Gen 6: Aurorus
Gen 7: Alolan Ninetales
Swinub, Piloswine, Sneasel and Smoochum all say hi.
I consider the first two to be Gen 4 because honestly they don’t look like Gen 2 Pokemon, plus Mamoswine is Gen 4, Sneazel I forgot and Smoochum I kinda did too, but I already had Jynx.
They looked like Gen 2 Pokemon in Gen 2, before Mamoswine existed. I’m not sure I see what you mean.
I just got used to them being Gen 4 because I used to watch the G4 anime when I was younger.
Oh OK, now that makes some sense.
The last Part of the Anime I could watch the Dub of without being unable to handle the cheese.
It’s only really Gen 5 that sucks.
What about Smoochum and Sneasle
Forgot about those two.
Mine would be:
Lapras
Delibird (I actually like it lol)
Spheal/Walrein
Mamoswine
Vanillish
Aurorus (tho Tyrantrum is MUCH better)
Alolan Sandslash

Again with the reposting, but seriously. This is actually really good
Is Kill La Kill any good?
Yes.
It’s not all about skimpy outfits and boobs is it?
Eh, Skimpy outfits yes, Boobs less so, mainly about fighting and mind control clothes
OK, I mean I don’t mind those things as long as there is substance, actually story and good characters.
Short but pretty good story.
Yes
FIRST 4 FIGURES IS WORKING ON A BANJO KAZOOIE FIGURE

I just realised that the 2 anime I’m watching are both VERY fanservice-y… Huh…
https://twitter.com/MegaMan/status/937762291415576576
Just saw the reveal and I am freaking lol new mega man game and the entire x series on switch? Yes please!
I think I am the only one who for another NT warrior like game………..nice avatar by the way.
You mean the Universe with BN and SF where Dr.Light’s Internet Research was chosen over Wily’s Robot Research?
No I meant these 2 https://static.tumblr.com/438655d502b954bfe7eb5b07e001c0ee/3r91yxt/xHwnrhs7x/tumblr_static_filename_640_v2.jpg https://static.zerochan.net/Megaman.Starforce.3.full.255345.jpg
You mean the one’s I Mentioned by Initials?
Oh now I know wat BN and SF mean
Battle Network and Starforce Yes.
No you are not. I would love an actual continuation of the battle network series with lan and mayls son
why not make X9 in the vein of MM9?
IM SCREAMING
Hopefully it’s better than their latest Megaman games >_>
But it’s really cool to see Capcom still making more Megaman games :0
YES!!!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f9a7acfa3bb64461f334c78f9633b0cb937f0c4912bbc3443093b52f88715491.png
Who here watches one piece?
Me, still on Punk Hazard arc though.
I’ve Seen all pre-Timeskip via the Funi-Dub(need to rewatch Amazon Lily-Marineford because I skimmed that hard, Skipped all Filler and LRLL save for AFRO LUFFY), and seen a little past Zou in post ts subs, Waiting on the Dub to Finish off Fishman Island(or at least get to the part where they Curb Stomp Everybody)
I didn’t like the dub, no idea if it got better. I mostly prefer subbed anime anyway. I do my best to skip fillers, though I too watched Afro Luffy.
Have you actually seen the Uncut Dub? It’s Different from the 4kids Dub Vastly and even from the Funimation Cut Dub from when they had to take over and shoehorn around the changes.
No, but I’m content with the Japanese voices. Maybe I’ll check out the dub if I get curious enough but I’m over 600 episodes in and doing fine.
LRLL isn’t filler, but it could be, especially with how much they like to bring Foxy back in Fillers
Probably why I watched it then.
Used to. I’d watch it again if it weren’t so long
the manga itself is over 20 years old
Up-to-date with the manga.
This thing kinda looks like Golurk https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQObcsRV4AAtvTI.jpg
no it doesnt
Yes it does
No it doesn’t!
It has similar color sceme (only a few shades off of Golurk’s blue and it covers the yellow part) and blocky texture is what he means
So he’s both right and wrong, as its similar, but not exactly the same
Ik i just wanted to disagree
No I just want to agree with myself
I can see some
Out of school for the rest of the day woo!
And well its obvious who my favorite Ice type is https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/56c5d8ee344b7e1f17d6f1bd38f05ac483a40390ee98e4d4ca7143b395c83519.png
And all in all Ice isn’t my favorite type of all, but it’s the only type I don’t dislike a single one of them, most I love or am neutral with
….
froslassdeservesthatmegamore
But Glalie looks better to me
And my old friend Glice (Ot holds a spot in my All-star team)
butfroslassdeservedthemegamore
Mega Froslass for Gen 8! because We Didn’t get any new ones in Gen 7 and that’s a crime since the only gen 5 mon with a mega is audino
It may, but she’ll get her chance… one day
Favorite of each Gen.
Gen.1- Dewgong
Gen.2- The between Sneasel and Piloswine
Gen.3- Glalie
Gen.4- Weavile and Mamoswine (Weavile may be my favorite, but it shares its Ice spot with Mamoswine)
Gen.5- Vanillish
Gen.6- Avalugg
Gen.7- Alolan Sandslash
Gen2: for real wat else could be Delibird?
Gen6…….hel yeah Avalugg need some love
Meh because Weavile’s n’t favorite I also really love Sneasel, but I like Delibird, actually I find nothing wrong with it, I even had a good match competitively with one
And yeah Avalugg holds a special place for m because when I saw my first Bergmite I sat and looked at my screen like “How… how…. Did they make such a cool Pokémon?!”
It easily ranks in my top 10 ice types and in top 10 Kalos Region Pokémon in general
If mega counted then yes
CAPCOM IS RELEASING ALL OF THE MEGAMAN X GAMES ON SWITCH
How mundane.
Only the first 6 are good enough thank you very much
which one has Duff McWhalen?
X5
I will buy all 8 lol only played x4-6 plusthe x one remake on psp.
I think they might be releasing them as one item, like with the Legacy Collections
Well either way I will get them lol now if only they would do a battle network legacy collection. Capcom please.
If they do that they better fix that Wood Man? Bug where it looked like it froze but it was Something Wrong with the Frames or soemthing?
Woodman glitch? I honestly don’t remember that lol
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQOiSIsWAAAD_mP.jpg
The old guys look so out of place lol
So excited! All 8 megaman x games on my switch plus megaman 11 looks pretty good so far! Finally megaman is alaivr again….for now let’s hope Capcom doesn’t stuff him in a closet again
I don’t get Megaman
What to Get? He’s a Man who Rocks
He’s s fighting robot! MEGAMAN! ?
Tbh this hype for Megaman came out of nowhere, like, we barely talk about it. But I kinda understand where the hype is coming from, Megaman is a great platformer and Megaman X is one of the best SNES games really.
Ice has the best Z-Move dance and I’ll 1v1 anyone who disagrees ❄
That and like bug/ghost for me. Ice is amazing
I’m agreeing with you just because I don’t have the patience to sit down and watch every Z-Move dance, because otherwise ?
All you need to know:
Fairy – slight difference on guys which makes it less cringy than expected
Pikachu – very cringy but in a cute way
Rock – awkward with how skinny the MCs are
Not surprised some o them are cringy considering it’s just some 12 year old doing bizarre poses
Finally beat Ultra Sun yesterday. I really want to do the Rainbow Rocket Episode, but I’m gonna hunt for shiny UB: Burst first, which might take a while. AlsoI went wormhole hunting for a bit and got four shinies (Swanna x2, Hippowdon, and Crustle). Was hoping to get a Swellow because it’s one of my dream shinies, but I think I’m gonna take a break from the wormhole for now.
Such a great video
“Is that just a swan?”

“It’s so cool before” you said it’s OK right before…
He called Incineroar line “perfection” how can I hate this guy?
I love this guy too
Oh and I’m bored give me something to work on
Of my existing Pokémon ideas which should I emphasize next
-My orchid bee Pokémon
-My Quoll regional Rodent
-My Vole regional Rodent (They are time based encounters)
-Figure out what my Bird should be
-My early on cat Pokémon
-My Bear Pokémon that has a split evolution
– Look for something entirely new to make?
Bear
I’ll get to work right away
It’s him a be tough to make it all
*fans*: we want a dolphin Pokémon!
Me: did you know Killer Whales are actually considered Dolphins? ;3
They barely look like dolphins 😛
But they are
#shamelessfakemonplug
When people say dolphin they mean Delphinidae not of the genus Orcinus or Globicephela, or river dolphins.
Well it counts enough ;3
Nu ?
GameFreak: Tapu Fini is partially a Dolphin
Me: we should have an orca Pokémon!
What
Wat
Tapu Fini is a fish. Tapu Koko is a bird, Tapu Lele is an insect, Tapu Bulu is a mammal.
Tapu Fini is a mix between a Swordfish and a Marlin, not a dolphin at all.
Also, Kyogre is the only orca we need thank you very much. I won’t let my tsunami causing beauty to have any competition ?
Kyogre is a Leviathan, Groudon is a Behemoth and Rayquaza is a Ziz
I hope that if we get more overworld pokemon in Pokemon Switch, we can finally see a size accurate Wailord
Then it would be possible to have a gym/trial/whatever inside of a Wailord.
Vore weirdos would have a field day
Definitely, I mean they already are having a field day with Mimikyu’s Z-move and they are kind of stretching it by saying that.
They’d be having a wail of a time
Or a Town in the Sky on the Back of a Wailord becuase as we all know, Wailord is Less dense than Air.
I did not know that. Do they learn Fly or Bounce?
No but they Are the flost whale Pokemon
Wait they can Learn bounce by Tutoring
This y I like NT more than original series ….the original looks like a joke. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/5/5f/Bass3.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100626131014 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/3/38/Bass2MM10.png/revision/latest?cb=20100722183556
Fucccck vignette………..wtf with their links?
While I also prefer the battle network series over the classic games the art style is different because it’s from a different time. Back in the 80s technology could only do so much plus that was the art style back then too.
My wondering was y these series didn’t not success……..y ppl still like original over these?
Nostalgia mostly. A lot of the fan base grew up on the classic games. To be honest though it’s almosg impossible to compare them since he gameplay is completely different
Battle network and starforce are RPGs
Pretty much while the classic and x series are action platform. Honestly I would like a first person shooter megaman game similar to the metroid prime series.
Hey guys wouldn’t a nymph be a good Fairy type?
Florges is kinda a flower nymph and as most nymphs are linked to plants and bodies of water I’d rather not. I want to see more unique type combos
I’m asking because my bear has an evolution which originates from Ursa Major and Minor
And they say that Ursa Major was originally a Nymph named Callisto so I wanted to make it have a nymph type to kind of have a deeper meaning to its evolution than what meets the eye
In that case, nymphs are extremely similar to certain depictions of fairies so I’d say go for it
Thanks now I can continue as planned
