Its name may be derived from the French ''glace'', meaning ice, or from the word ''glacier'', a large, slow moving mass of ice. The ''-eon'' suffix, common to all {{p|Eevee}} [[evolution]]s, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of ''evolution'' itself.

Glaceon is a fox-like creature covered in light-blue fur. The fur is actually frozen into sharp quills, but one can't really tell by just looking. Glaceon appears to be wearing a Sherpa cap on its head. Glaceon's ears, two spots on its back, tail end and cap-endings are all rhombus-shaped.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Glaceon can use any attack that Eevee knows with the addition of Template:Type2 attacks. As a fully evolved Pokémon, Glaceon can learn Hyper Beam and Giga Impact. In addition to that, it can also freeze its fur to make it stand up like needles - similar to its evolutionary kin, Jolteon.
Glaceon appears as a trophy alongside its counterpart, Leafeon.
Trophy Information
A Fresh Snow Pokémon and a Verdant Pokémon. They are both evolutions of Eevee. Eevee can evolve into seven different Pokémon depending on what it has in its possession and where it is when it evolves. Glaceon is an Template:Type2 and can freeze all the fur on its body into protective quills. Leafeon is a Template:Type2, and the air around it is always fresh and clean.

Glaceon and Espeon are the only Eeveelutions that share the same highest base stat: Special Attack. However, Espeon has a higher Speed stat while Glaceon has a higher Defense stat.
On that note, Glaceon is the only pure Ice-type Pokémon not introduced in Generation III.
Although Glaceon can freeze its fur to make it stand up like needles, it cannot launch them at adversaries in the form of a Pin Missile as Jolteon can.
Its name may be derived from the French glace, meaning ice, or from the word glacier, a large, slow moving mass of ice. The -eon suffix, common to all Eeveeevolutions, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of evolution itself.
