Articuno is a large {{wp|Aves|avian}}  {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with predominantly sky blue plumage and wings said to be made of ice. On its forehead is a crest that consists of three, darker blue rhombus-shaped feathers. It has circular red eyes, a short gray beak, and long, thin gray legs. Each foot has three forward-facing digits and one facing backward. On its chest is a mass of white, downy feathers. Its long, streamer-like tail is longer than its body and the same shade of blue as its crest.

Articuno has the power to control ice at will. When Articuno flaps its wings, it can chill the moisture in the air around it, making snow fall. It flies from icy mountain to icy mountain. According to legend, it appears before doomed travelers lost in icy regions. As seen in [[EP189|the anime]], Articuno sometimes aids travelers and guides them to safety. Articuno lives in cold, {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|isolated locations}} such as snowy mountains filled with permafrost. Articuno loves [[Articuno Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once encountered and sang with it in the past.
