Favorite Ice type

[CynthiaLover]

Seeing how there is a poll for favorite Fire type and Normal type, I'm doing one for the Ice type. The Ice type is my favorite type (fitting for someone who loves the cold and snow), but it's often neglected in favor of other types. This is due to its poor defensive status and oftentimes bulky/slow Pokemon. But I still feel it deserves some love. But anyway, on with the show.

My favorite Ice type is Glalie. I don't know why, exactly, but it's just one of the most interesting Pokemon out there. While it's moves are a bit more limited compared to its female counterpart, Froslass, I still find Glalie to be a cool Pokemon (eheheh, no pun intended). The anime also influence that decision as well, as it's Ash's only remaining Ice type, but also his best compared to Lapras.

So, what is your favorite Ice type Pokemon? Note that this does not include Mega Evos, but it does include forms.

 

[Norzan]

Definitely Mamoswine with Weavile as a close second. Both an improvement design wise and battle wise over the previous stage imo.

 

[Suicune Rider]

Ice is my favorite type too (Water close behind), hi bro! Anyway, I really like every single one of them, but I voted for Kyurem-B because it's the best one in OU.

 

[Soki]

Sneasel and Weavile, and I also really like Froslass. Can't really explain why, but the first time I met a Sneasel in Diamond I just instantly fell in love with it and I regularly have one on my team.

 

[Aulos]

Either Glaceon or Articuno.

Oddly enough, despite ice being my favorite element by far in general (beyond Pokemon), I tend to not really like the majority of Pokemon that are ice typings. They're usually just weird. Articuno and Glaceon are the main exceptions.

 

[Almonds]

Froslass. She's beautiful, I love her design and dex entry. She's also useful in battles. The ghost-typing helps a lot.

I always have a Froslass in my team

 

[AlphaGreninja]

Walrein, with Lapras in second and Aurorus in third.

 

[Sakuraa]

Aw man, I just realized that I like a lot of ice-types, so this'll be harder than the other ones. The Amaura family, Spheal family, Lapras and Glaceon are cool (cuz they're ice types), but overall my favorite has to be Weavile.

 

[ArvAl]

Articuno. Who wouldn't?

 

[Dr. Buni]

I don't see the reason to put unnevolved Pokémon on the poll. Anyways, my favorite is Froslass.

 

[Paleo]

Probably Glaceon, but Pokémon may shift positions on my awesomeness ranking

 

[Soki]

I don't see the reason to put unnevolved Pokémon on the poll. Anyways, my favorite is Froslass.

There are people that like the unevolved Pokémon better than the (fully) evolved version. e.g. I like Vanillite, but despise Vanilluxe.

Also on one of the other "Favorite ... type" threads unevolved Pokémon were excluded from the poll and people complained about it, so I think that's why they're now included.

 

[Kit Chan]

Glaceon

 

[homer.homs]

My favorite Ice Pokemon is Weavile.

Maybe because Weavile is fastest Ice type Pokemon and the only Ice type Pokemon that has an access to Fake Out and Ice Shard.

 

[Envoy]

Right now, I'm going to have to go with my girl Articuno. She's just so fucking majestic, yo.

Rounding up the top five are Lapras, Abomasnow, Glaceon, and Aurorus, all of which are awesome in their own way.

 

[Lord Kyuubi]

Hmm, I like snow and the cold and stuff. But not ice. Ice is slippy. Ice had me dislocate my shoulder when I fell over once. So I don't like ice.

*Ahem* type-wise, I like ice quite a bit more. Though I'm not really keen on very many ice type pokemon. They often just aren't that appealing to me. This is of course, apart from a few huge exceptions, including articuno, lapras, the sneasel family and, first and foremost, glaceon. Glaceon's just beautiful, enough said. And ice powers are pretty neat. If I was an eevee, I think I'd want to evolve into glaceon. But wait, I might like to be vaporeon too. And umbreon suits me, maybe. Or maybe leafeon. Better not forget flareon, either. Or, hmm, well...

Well, that was conclusive.

 

[Misty-Moo]

I like Glalie & Mamoswine pretty much equally, but as I have to decide .......................

Spoiler

Mamoswine

 

[Lysson]

It was a tough choice between Glaceon and Articuno. However I chose Articuno because dat tail.

 

[Zeb]

Glalie is super cool. It has one of my favourite designs in the entire series, even if it is a little lacking in the battle department. Weavile, Beartic and Mega Abomasnow are runners-up.

 

[Odinn]

Lapras, Articuno, Glaceon, Amaura.
Voted for Lapras but it's truly a close call. I could have voted for any of these 4.
