Evolution chart
Pokédex entries
| Sword | It spits out thread imbued with a frigid sort of energy and uses it to tie its body to branches, disguising itself as an icicle while it sleeps. |
|---|---|
| Shield | It eats snow that piles up on the ground. The more snow it eats, the bigger and more impressive the spikes on its back grow. |
| Scarlet | It eats snow that has accumulated on the ground. It prefers soft, freshly fallen snow, so it will eat its way up a mountain, aiming for the peak. |
| Violet | Within its internal organs, Snom amplifies the frigid air it gets from eating snow and then uses this amplified air to create icicle-like spikes. |
