Overview |
Beartic inhabit icy caves and glaciers, particularly those near northern polar oceans and seas. They spend most of their time on four limbs, though they will stand bipedally in order to intimidate foes or reach higher ground. Beartic are capable of exhaling air at subzero temperatures, freezing the surrounding moisture. They use this ability to encase their paws and mouths with claws and fangs of ice, respectively, to attack foes. To cross large stretches of ocean, these Pokémon will freeze the waters beneath their paws, creating pathways of ice for them to walk on. They are also adept swimmers that spend much of their time hunting in the water; when tired, they will simply freeze the water beneath them to rest, creating new ice floes. With their thick fur and wide paws, Beartic are adapted to moving and living in icy environments. They are often the focus of studies regarding changes in global temperatures because of how heavily they depend on large expanses of ice. A warming climate has caused many scientists to focus closely on the Beartic population, which has been slowly but steadily dropping every year.
