How to Get Galarian Articuno

The Crown Tundra

Galarian Articuno only appears in The Crown Tundra which is included in the Expansion Pass DLC for Pokemon Sword and Shield.

Start the Legendary Birds Storyline

Objectives
①	Go to the south of the Crown Tundra to Ballimere Lake.
②	Head around to the east side to reach Dyna Tree Hill where you will witness the three birds fight.
③	After the scene, you'll be able to go to the Birds' respective areas to catch them.

The main prerequisite for catching Galarian Articuno is starting off the Legendary Birds chapter by visiting Dyna Tree Hill. Once you've done this, you'll be ready to start the hunt!

How to Catch Galarian Articuno

Objectives
Follow the route above and you will meet Galarian Articuno at the top.
①	Fly to the lower access point in Snowslide Slope and check that Galarian Articuno is above you.
②	If Galarian Articuno is not there, fly to the same point again. Otherwise, follow Galarian Articuno to the top of the slope and to the cliff on the left.
③	When Galarian Articuno splits into 3, check the one which opens its wings and follow it with your eye, then engage it after it spins down to start the battle.
④	Catch it to update Legendary Clue 3.

1. Fly to the lower point in Snowslide Slope

When you fly to the access point, you may or may not see Galarian Articuno in front of you, or see its shadow flying directly overhead. If you don't see Galarian Articuno at all when flying here, fly to the same spot again until you encounter it.

2. Go up the slope and through the patch of grass

At the very top of the slope, when you reach the wall, you'll see a patch of grass on the left. Go through the crass to emerge at a cliffside.

3. Wait for Galarian Articuno at the edge of the cliff

Galarian Articuno will meet you as you wait on the cliff, so check and make sure that Galarian Articuno is still on its way. If you took too long to reach the top and Galarian Articuno has already passed, fly back to the access point you started at.

4. Choose the Galarian Articuno which opens its wings

When Galarian Articuno splits into 3, check which one opens its wings before flying down. Afterwards, the three will spin down to the ground in a circle, so be sure to keep your eye on the real Galarian Articuno. After it descends, interact with it and it will disappear for a moment, then the fight will begin.

Battle Strategy

Galarian Articuno Lv. 70

Galarian Articuno will use Psychic-type moves like Freezing Glare, which has a chance of inflicting freeze, as well as the powerful Flying-type move Hurricane. It's good to employ a defensive Hypnosis user like Bronzong with a high Special Defense and resistance to Psychic and Flying type moves.

Basic Information

A Psychic/Flying Type

Unlike its predecessor, Articuno loses the Arctic in its name to become a Psychic/Flying type like Lugia, Latias and Latios. However, it seems to retain some icy properties in the effect of its move Freezing Glare, and may learn some Ice-type Moves as well.

Freezing Glare

Galarian Articuno's signature move Freezing Glare is a Special Psychic-type move, and unique among Psychic moves, it has the potential to inflict freezing. Now that's why I call an ice-cold stare!

Obtainable in the Crown Tundra DLC

Like its brethren Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres, Galarian Articuno is available in The Crown Tundra DLC.
