* Cryogonal is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Solar Beam}} by leveling up, but not learn {{m|Sunny Day}} by any method.

Cryogonal's appearance seems to be based on both {{wp|snowflake}}s and {{wp|ice crystals}}. The ability to trap prey in ice crystals may be a reference to the ''{{wp|Jötunn|hrímþursar}}'', Nordic giants who were made of ice, who also have this ability. Because of its back sprite and ability to learn several light-based moves, it may also be based on a {{wp|Mirror|glass mirror}}.
