_"But which of them all is as Cool As Ice?!"_ *~ Vainilla Ice, probably.*

freeze shock actually makes perfect sense. the electrical resistance of any given medium is proportional to that mediums temperature, cooling a thing reduces electrical resistance, therefore making the energy transfer more efficient. you also forgot to mention that hail gives blizzard perfect accuracy, which explains why it's regular accuracy is low. if you use blizzard normally, the user has to generate the snow and then shoot it at the enemy, giving them a chance to dodge, if hail is in effect, there is ice in the air everywhere, there is no dodging that.

But can we talk about how aurorus can’t learn Aurora veil? Edit: Nice! (or N-Ice!) Aurorus can now learn Aurora Veil in gen 8, returned in Crown Tundra and can now learn it through breeding.

"A Wailord- no- TEN Sword and Shield Wailords!" Gotta admit I laughed out loud at that. Scaling during battles in Sword and Shield can be so strange compared to the overworld.

Why isn’t Ice Fang called Frostbite? It’s the perfect pun and I’m mad GameFreak didn’t take that opportunity.

"ice-mancy" Cryo is a prefix.

"Imagine how cool a move called Solar Wind would be" You mean... heat wave?

15:25 "Why do people live in texas!?!" As a texan myself I honestly have no idea

my man, ice magic is called “cryomancy”

3:50 In the flying type gym in Pokemon Emerald, I used defense curl+rollout with my Golem. I swept the entire team!

"Now I have an excuse to stay inside" Yeah that definitely aged well.

Christmas time : *starts* Poketubers: activate *I C E*

It's official: Lockstin cuts holes in his chairs and stands in them instead of sitting down

You're probly gonna get flack for this, but Kyurem doesn't change typing when it becomes Black or White Kyurem. All three are still Dragon/Ice. They just get stronger and access to both the Fusion move of Zekrom and Reshiram, respectively, their ability, and the signature move of that form.

This move can’t be used. It’s reccomended that you forget this move. Once forgotten, it can’t be remembered. -Freezy Frost

Cool. I'm still sick though. Also, all the moves are just the Pokemon eating a lot of mints. 6:25 You sure about that?

6:24 12:01 And here's your blunders of the day. Kyurem's Dragon/Ice-type doesn't change at all when fusing.

Actually, water doesn’t conduct electricity... the minerals within water do, but not water itself. If you have water without any minerals, it won’t conduct...

Theory: Powder Snow, Frost Breath, and Ice Beam are all the same move but as the Pokémon’s skill increases, thus they can concentrate the ice more powerfully.

I have always thought the Ice type moves were cooler than the competition.

6:25 black kyurem isn't ice/electric type.. it's kyurem .. it's ice/dragon, kyurem white isn't ice/fire either.

"I'm not saying there are actually Valkyrie spirits in pokemon" But there probably are.

Snow, Christmas, Ice moves.. Here in Sydney this morning we have a 30 degrees Celsius sunny day.

2:57 In Ultra Moon I was against a wailord as umbreon in the battle tree and got frozen for 25+ turns..

Ice types need buffs so bad like more resistances.

Could you do a video on which Ice type matchups could logically be changed? So far this series has inadvertently given reasons for why Ice should resist Electric and Fairy. Logically, Ice should also resist Grass, and Steel shouldn't resist it.

A terrain move called something like Slick Ice would be nice. Anyone who's lived in cold areas understands how hurt you can get just by the smallest slips. Perhaps if a water type move is used it increases the damage each turn.

Not to sound rude or anything, but at 6:24 you said Black Kyurem is Ice/Electric type, it's actually Dragon/Ice type. Btw great video as usual.

I'm a little jealous of you having cold weather. I'm in Australia, where Summer is usually very hot, AND we're having a heatwave with bushfires. If only we could compress the atmosphere to bring down the temperature.

Lockstin and Gnoggin: "WhY dO pEoPlE lIvE iN tExAs, ThE hAiL iS hHgE" Me, a person from Texas: "What's hail"

Winter is beautiful, calm, quiet, peaceful......but also DANGEROUS and POWERFUL. I just wish GameFreak could see that....maybe some day we'll have an ice type pokemon FAST, wicked strong, as well as bulky. Something to be respected. Just like winter itself.

His last video literally had an ice pun for a title. I'm guessing it foreshadowed this video?

11:02 hey that’s Kiryu’s move

Crabominable's Ice Hammer attack is meant to be a strange combination of Ice Punch and Crabhammer, swung as a variant of Arm Hammer, thus the Power/Accuracy stats and Speed-dropping effect.

Again, compressing air heats it up. It's the decompression of air that cools it down.

I'm just taking a second to appreciate that your editor took a screen grab of Freezy Frost's Gen 8 nulled-out description telling you to get rid of it instead of Let's Go's where it actually described the move.

11:11 It's not "basically as if", it's actually just that. 0° Kelvin (Absolute Zero) is so cold, atoms barely move if at all anymore. Temperature after all is just slower or faster movement of atoms.

Basic Summary: Ever seen The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe when the witch freezes Narnia that is basically the Ice Type as an attacking type.

17:35 HAIL THE SIZE OF MINIVANS

Your selection in “ice-themed music” is pretty good. You find some cool tunes for your backup music 👌

I think the aurora thing is light reflecting off of ice crystals. Thus why it’s ice type and why aurora beam after hail gets you contest points, it’s pretty.

8:42 Lockstin you did it again! It's supposed to be Cryomancy! ;P

In the case of Kyurem-W, its signature move can be linked to the fact cold temperatures can cook food. So from some cryomantic being who can control ice AND fire, this sounds like a nuclear weapon of cryo and pyro, making it easy to burn

0:12 "I have an excuse to be inside now" Yyeeeeaah about that.......

"and I have an excuse to stay inside now" yeah...

Everyone: Snow...Christmas...ice Types And here in germany we had 14°C and sunshine today Yes winter

Mad props for not forcing us to watch your previous Ice video by summarizing it here.

"10 Sword and Shield Wailords" Facts.

As someone from the south hemisphere, I'm currently in hell. Seeing you north americans talk about snow this time of the year does not help.

0:10 "That roaring fire at the background either wood or gas is an example how not to adress the climate change" "bruh, it just a video....."

Since you covered what would happen if pokemon could have three types, it'd be cool if you covered moves being dual type. Things like fire punch would by fire and fighting, which would decimate ice and steel types, but I'm curious what other combos might exist and how their effectiveness would stack up!

Video: pops up in my notification Me:Is it cold in here or is it just me

U at 6:23: Black Kyurem is Ice-Electric type Nintendo and ANYONE whose owns a post gen 5 handbook or played black2 or white2 or any gen 6 or 7 game: Black and White Kyurem are both Ice-Dragon type, like it's normal form

*makes video about ice types because it’s cold in the usa* Me, who lives in the Southern Hemisphere: *am I a joke to you?*

Duuude, I loved this video and the last. Especially since I’ve been learning about thermodynamics this year.

I live in texas and a few days ago a hail ball broke my glass table. That's what you get for living in a state that fits all seasons in one day

“Lol, Christmas is all about consumerism.” “This video includes paid promotion.” Those mixed signals, lmao.

I really love these videos. I dunno which move type you'll do next, but I'm still hoping for Water.

Aurora beam could also be electric type. Magnetic field- related attacks are elecric type (as this is basically the same thing), and there have been experiments with creating auroras artificially with radio waves. I think it's ice type because places where the auroras are most frequently seen are rather icy. I don't see how fire type would make much sense.

Actually, both Kyurem formes are still Dragon/Ice...

"WHY DO PEOPLE LIVE IN TEXAS?" I ask myself this every single day, yet I'm still here.

That's a nice description for Freezy Frost there, seeme like a great move to use.

0:09 Little did he know this would be far from his best excuse to not go outside. Thanks 2020

Black and White Kyurem are still Dragon/Ice, not ice and fire/electric

"Why do people live in Texas? That's a lot of damage!"

Perfect time to be watching this the day before Christmas (for me at least)

Yes I've been looking forward too this you are awesome man

8:07 At this time of year, At this time of day , In this part of the country, Localized entirely within your kitchen?

"Why do people live in Texas!? That's a lot of damage!" -Lockstin 2019 15:27 As someone who lives in Texas, let me answer that question. My joke answer is because people are toxic and like the heat. My serious answer is because economic opportunities since the 1800s that apply differently today. Just look at Austin (and I live in Austin too XD).

another way ice burn could possibly work: kyurem launches the heat from its tail and heats up the opponent just enough to cause a small burn, then he launches the frigid substance or air, causing the opponent to be damaged a lot more. the reason it is still ice is that it's mostly cold air and whatever kyurem uses to freeze it's opponents, meaning they are still cold.

I like how the description you screenshot for Freezy Frost is the one from Sword & Shield that just says "This move can't be used."

Like for 'all mega evolutions, z-moves and G-max moves explained'

"It's like rock without rock throw" Or haha you know... *_FIRE WITHOUT FIREBALL._*

Great job I love the snow

Oh hell yeah. Been waiting for this one

You are wrong is not called glacier it's called kill child

3:53 In Japanese, a bad or cheesy joke would be described as “cold” (寒い).

Oo. Ice type my second favorite. Just in time for winter to officially begin (despite the fact we had snow fpr halloween)

I purchased the "Azoth Poke Alchemy" poster. I can't wait to get it! :)

15:18 as a Texan, I feel targeted Seriously though, a couple of years ago we had a BAD hail storm that totaled a lot of cars (including mine) and did massive amounts of damage to roofs and windows. Thankfully, storms that bad are rare.

The first word in the video: IT'S.. Me an intellectual: BEEN ONE WEEK SINCE YOU LOOKED AT ME

What if Aurora Beam and Aurora Veil are Ice type because they create a thin beam of ice and use the hailstorm as a thin wall of ice, respectively. The ice being so thin better bends and reflects the light to create a rainbow color.

That voice crack when he says “ that’s a lot of damage” , that made my day lol

It's December but still it's super hot in my country🌶️

I was hoping that you mention that "Ice Shard" is called "Canto Helado" in spanish, wich means "Ice Sing" and tried to explain why that could be...

I think a cool video idea would be to talk about the “most lethal Pokémon move” cause damn some moves just completely overkill. You got water gun like “sure a hose can hurt” vs Draco meteor that speaks for itself.

15:00 Might just be a separate stretch, but mist and haze is frequently used to symbolize the passage of time in Japanese artwork. Perhaps the idea is that the stat changes wear off over time that's hidden by the mist? It's not scientific, but I prefer my stretch. Great video!

here where i live isn't cold, it's very hot

Isn’t freeze shock only ice type and not dual-typed or am I wrong?

(9:25) "kmph" is not a valid way to write the unit, it is "km/h", because "km" and "h" are the units for kilometer and hour, and the "/" is used as the unified division and per mark. Using "p" would make some forms very complicated to read, the same reason why ² is used over using "sq". For example kg·m²/s³/A² is easier to read than kgsqmpcussqA.

While I never got to use your discounts on Displate, they were brought to my attention by you, so thanks for that much.

I want *CORPORATISM* to be a running joke with this channel

6:25 It’s actually Ice and Salamence type

"You're as cold as ice! You're willing to sacrifice your love...."

About aurora being linked to valkyrie, isn't Jynx partially based off of a valkyrie? Kind of sad Jynx never got another evolution unlike Magmar and Electabuzz.

22 views and 46 likes...yep seems about right

Technically 'cold' doesn't exist, it's the absence of heat

Perfect timing. It’s very snowy outside haha

You forgot about about the other effects of Hail. Like if hail is active blizzard can never miss and how some Pokemon can gain effects based on their abilities when hail is active like ice body, slush Rush and snow cloak. And how it counters other moves and effects
