Glalie (オニゴーリ, Onigōri, Onigohri in original Japanese language versions) are one of the Template:Pokenum fictional Pokémon species of Pokémon creatures from the multi-billion-dollar[1] Pokémon media franchise—a collection of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards, and other media created by Satoshi Tajiri. Glalie debuted in 2002 in the Japanese versions of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. In all aspects of the franchise, Glalie, as with all other Pokémon, are used to battle both wild, untamed Pokémon and tamed Pokémon owned by Pokémon trainers.[2]
Glalie is likely a portmanteau of glacier and goalie, although it may also be a take on the word lie, symbolizing its rather dark appearance or behavior (or the lie portion may be there purely for aesthetic purposes). It's "Glail" part could also be part of gale, a strong wind. Its Japanese name is a combination of 鬼 (oni), demon, and 氷 (kōri), ice. Its name could also be a pun on お握り (onigiri), rice ball, to which it has a slight resemblance. The name Glalie refers to the species as a whole, as well as to individual specimens in the games, anime, manga, trading cards, and other media.
Biological characteristics
Glalie shares physical similarities with an ice hockey goalie's mask as well as with the Japanese rice food onigiri. In addition, it bears a resemblance to the head of Shin Getter Robo's Shin Getter-1 form, particularly with the placement of its outer shell's gaps and the two protruding horns. It also bears a passing resemblance to a cacodemon. Glalie also has it arched row of teeth, similar to it's pre-evolution, Snorunt.
Role
In the Pokémon video games
Glalie are never seen in the wild. They can be obtained only by evolving Snorunt at level 42. Snorunt can be caught in the wild Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, and Pearl, as well as Snagged in Pokémon XD.
Glalie is one of only four pure ice-type Pokémon in the franchise (the others are Snorunt, Regice, and Glaceon). Glalie's statistics are unusual among Pokémon in that every statistic has the same base value; none of Glalie's stats start out higher than another. Their Inner Focus Pokémon ability prevents opponents' moves from causing them to flinch.[3] The second, Icy Body, which is only usable in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, restores health when it is hailing during the battle instead of doing damage. Glalie can learn the same moves that Snorunt can, with the addition of Sheer Cold, a low-accuracy move that instantly KOs the opponent.
In the Pokémon anime
The Pokémon anime series and films are a meta-series of adventures separate from the canon that most of the Pokémon video games (excepting Pokémon Yellow[4]) follow. The anime features the quest of Ash Ketchum,[5] a young Pokémon trainer, as he and several other companions travel around the world with their Pokémon partners.
Ash Ketchum has a Glalie while in Hoenn. It evolved from his Snorunt in Episode 400, Rhaspody In Drew. He keeps it throughout the season, and uses it multiple times, including battles in Episode 402, Like A Meowth To Flame, and Episode 405, Shocks and Bonds. Ash's Glalie is a male. Later, he leaves it at Professor Oak's lab upon returning from Hoenn.It is voiced by Pete Zarustica and Bill Rogers in future appearances.
In the Pokémon trading card game
Glalie appear several times in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, a collectible card game in which players simulate Pokémon battles.[6] Glalie cards are typical, Stage-1 Pokémon cards.[7] Glalie have made three appearances as water-type:
- EX: Hidden Legends
- EX: Emerald
- Ex: Power Keepers
- Diamond and Pearl Mysterious treasures
