Snover (Japanese: ユキカブリ Yukikaburi ) is a dual-type Grass /Ice Pokémon introduced in Generation IV .
It evolves into Abomasnow starting at level 40.
Biology
Male Snover growing Snoverberries in the anime
Snover is a Pokémon with a white upper body and brown lower body that resembles a snow-covered tree. It will be two-thirds brown if male and two-thirds white if female. It has green eyes and three points on top of its head. Its feet and green tail are stubby, and there are two green spikes that resemble pinecones on its back. Five cones form its hand: a large central cone with four smaller cones around it. Edible white Berries grow along Snover's midsection.
In Galar , packs of its natural predator, Galarian Darumaka , enjoy eating the Berries produced by Snover. This result in Abomasnow often chasing them away in order to protect it. Snover lives on snowy peaks in warm seasons but migrates lower as the weather cools. A curious Pokémon, it often approaches people and can be found inspecting footprints in the snow. Snover can sink its feet into the snow to absorb water, this helps cool down its body temperature.
