Biology

As soon as the snow flowers bloom, they come out, but when they fall, they retreat into places unknown. It can whip up blizzards in the mountains it lives in; that is why it has been called "The Ice Monster". A powerful Pokémon, if it sees any packs of Darumaka chasing Snover, it swings its large hammer-like arms, which are able to split boulders with ease. It tends to live a quiet life alone in the mountains.

Design & origin

Abomasnow is based on the abominable snow monster.

Forms

Mega Abomasnow

The shrubs on its back have grown dramatically. These, as well as large ice spikes which have sprouted along its body, have forced it to take a quadrupedal stance.
