Glalie (Japanese: オニゴーリ Onigohri) is an Ice-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Snorunt starting at level 42. It is one of Snorunt's final forms, the other being Froslass.

Biology

Physiology

Glalie is a round Pokémon that consists of a black rock core. It has two large, black, conical horns on either side of its head and its skin is covered by ice. This ice recedes in certain places like a mask of an ice hockey goalie, revealing the black rock skin behind. Its eyes are icy blue and it has large flat teeth. It also partly resembles a soccer ball.

Gender differences

None. While Glalie is often considered to be a masculine counterpart to Froslass, female Glalie exist.

Special abilities

Glalie's abilities are similar to those of its pre-evolution, only stronger. In fact, Glalie's icy powers are now strong enough to wield Sheer Cold. Other new moves include Earthquake, Gyro Ball and Explosion. Since Glalie is a fully evolved Pokémon, it can learn Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.

Behavior

Glalie tends to be mischievous. They can block paths in order to trap travelers that dwell into mountain tops or caves. Despite its physical disposition, Glalie are very loyal Pokémon. They are often misjudged by their unfriendly appearance.

Habitat

Cave Pokémon

Glalie live in deep cold caves and sometimes high atop mountain caps hidden within dark crooks of mountains. They have also been found to sleep withing large Ice fissures created by moving glaciers.

Diet

In the manga

Glalie in Pokémon Adventures

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Noland is seen picking a Glalie as one of his rental Pokémon in his battle against Emerald. Although it came close to winning by delivering a would-be-fatal Sheer Cold that succeeded in hitting its target, Emerald's Sceptile was in fact, unbeknownst to both Noland and Emerald, not meant to be a rental Pokémon and survived due to its higher level. It eventually lost to Sceptile's Iron Tail, allowing Emerald to win the Knowledge Symbol.

Earlier, Glacia of the Hoenn Elite Four was seen in possession of a Glalie in Volume 21.

Trivia

• Glalie shares the exact same base stats with Phione.
• Glalie's evolutionary line's Egg Group combination (Fairy and Mineral) is unique.

Origin

Similar to Jynx, Glalie is based on human features, most likely on a cold, distant person or facial expression. It also looks somewhat similar to an ice hockey mask. Due to its horns and teeth, it may be based on a standard Oni or possibly even onigiri, as its Japanese name suggests. It also resembles a hailstone.

Name origin

Glalie may be a combination of glacier and goalie.

Onigohri is a combination of 鬼 oni (demon) and 氷 kōri (ice). It may also be a pun on onigiri, which it slightly resembles. Gohri also bears phonetic similarity to goalie.
