Articuno is a Water-type Pokémon from the Sun & Moon series, released in the Team Up set on February 1, 2019. It has 110 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. The card features a Rare Holo rarity and is illustrated by Yusuke Ohmura. Articuno’s ability, Blizzard Veil, prevents all effects of an opponent’s Supporter card on Benched Water Pokémon while it is the Active Pokémon. Its attack, Cold Cyclone, requires two Water energy to deal 70 damage and move two Water energy from itself to a Benched Pokémon. The Pokémon resists Fighting-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Lightning-type attacks with double damage. Flavor text describes it as a legendary bird Pokémon capable of creating blizzards by freezing air moisture. This card’s design aligns with its thematic connection to cold environments and elemental control.
