Abomasnow is a large, bipedal creature covered in shaggy, white fur. It has pale purple eyes with bushy eyebrows and long strands of fur covering its mouth. Two tufts of longer fur grow on both its back and chest, with the chest fur being longer on the female. Its hands, feet, and tail are dark green and spiky, similar to the foliage of an evergreen tree. On its back are four green spikes that resemble pinecones. Abomasnow lives in snowy mountains and appears only when snow flowers bloom. Once the flowers die, it retreats to isolated areas. It is able to create blizzards to hide itself.
The sprouts on its back grow into great shafts of ice when this Pokémon Mega Evolves into Mega Abomasnow[1]. Its fur becomes longer and shaggy over its entire body, particularly around its head. Green fur or sprout remnants surround the base of the large icicles on its back, while white fur covers the middle.
Abomasnow, the Frost Tree Pokémon and the evolved form of Snover. Abomasnow appear when snow flowers bloom and return to places unknown when the petals fall.
An Abomasnow appeared during a flashback in The Redemption as one of the many Pokémon fighting in the great war of Kalos, 3000 years previously. Two were later seen petrified after the ultimate weapon was used by AZ to end the war.
An Abomasnow belonging to Candice was first seen in Disagreeable Graveler, when she took it out of its ball to save Platinum after she fainted from the cold on her way to Snowpoint City. Later, she used it in her Gym match against the same girl, where it lost to her Lopunny's Jump Kick after Candice switched out Froslass.
Abomasnow appears as a Poké Ball summon in both versions of the game. When summoned, it will use Blizzard to draw in opponents, and can also attack with Ice Punch.
Trophy information
NA:A solitary Grass/Ice type, Abomasnow loves to live in the snowy mountains, though it occasionally mingles with people as well. In Smash Bros., it uses a combo of Blizzard and Ice Punch, punishing anyone who gets too close. It can change direction when attacking, so sneaking up on it from behind won't work!
PAL:Abomasnow is a Grass- and Ice-type Pokémon said to live the quiet life in snowy mountains, but it's been known to mingle with humans too. It can whip up blizzards to attack anyone who strays too close, and it can throw a powerful Ice Punch either straight in front of back over its shoulder, so there's nowhere to hide!
