Biology

Glastrier is one of the Legendary Steeds, Calyrex's loyal Pokémon. Calyrex can mount either Steed and "fuse" with it using the Reins of Unity to become Ice Rider Calyrex or Shadow Rider Calyrex. Glastrier resembles an ice-elemental unicorn with a mask of ice harder than diamond.

It emits intensely cold energy from its hooves and has massive physical strength, which it uses to belligerently take whatever it wants.

Design & origin

Glastrier may be based on the horse of Conquest from the mythological Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, as well as the white knight piece in chess.
