Ice-type Pokémon stand out for being able to endure very low temperatures, as well as adapting to freezing weathers. They control ice at will. Their habitats go from the top of mountains, frozen caves and caverns or even the poles.
Many Ice-type moves have chances of freezing the target, which prevents them from attacking until they thaw out.
Famous Ice-type Pokémon Trainers include Lorelei, a member of the Kanto Elite Four; Pryce, the seventh Gym Leader of the Johto region's Mahogany Town; Glacia, a member of the Hoenn Elite Four; Candice, the seventh Gym Leader of Sinnoh's Snowpoint City; Brycen, once a Gym Leader in Unova; Wulfric, the last Gym Leader in Kalos; Melony, the sixth Gym Leader of Galar in Pokémon Shield, and Grusha the Gym Leader of the Glaseado gym in Paldea.
What are some of the habitats of Ice type Pokémon?
Ice type Pokémon, capable of enduring low temperatures and adapting to freezing climates, inhabit various environments. These include snowy mountain tops, frozen caves, caverns, and polar regions. They migrated to southern areas during an ancient ice age. Their abilities include cooling the surrounding air and generating ice particles to freeze opponents.

What is unique about the abilities of Ice type Pokémon?
Ice type Pokémon, numbering only 51 unique species, can instantly freeze atmospheric moisture, immobilizing opponents and creating icy pathways. Some can emit subzero air, freezing moisture to form icy claws and fangs for combat. Notably, in Generation III, all Ice-type moves were labeled as Beautiful, a trait they share with Fire type Pokémon.

Which Ice type Pokémon are known for their ability to endure very low temperatures?
Ice type Pokémon, such as Bergmite, Vanillite, and the legendary Articuno, have the ability to withstand extremely low temperatures and adapt to freezing conditions. They manipulate ice and reside in habitats like mountain tops, frozen caves, caverns, and poles. Bergmite can decrease the surrounding temperature to -150 degrees Fahrenheit, while Vanillite creates snow crystals and induces snowfall. Articuno, a legendary bird Pokémon, can control ice and cause snowfall by freezing winter air's water content.
They're strong against the Dragon type because all dragons are depicted as reptiles, which are cold-blooded creatures that can't stand low temperatures. Something interesting about this is that the Bug type isn't weak to them.
They're strong against the Flying type because most birds migrate away during the cold seasons. It could also be because flying animals have trouble flying when their wings are frozen.
They're strong against the Grass type because most plants can't stand low temperatures, similarly to reptiles.
They're strong against the Ground type because earth becomes fragile when frozen and ice erodes it.
They're weak against the Fire type because heat from the fire melts ice.
They're weak against the Fighting type because some fighters break ice when training. This is similar to the reason why the Rock and Steel types are weak to Fighting types.
They're weak against the Rock type because rock, being harder than ice, can break it.
They're weak against the Steel type because of the fact that metal is much harder than ice, and metal tools like shovels, ice picks, and certain machines are used to shatter ice.
The Water type resists them because ice melts when it touches a liquid.
They resist themselves because ice that's used to attack another source of ice will break.
Trivia
The Ice type has the fewest Pokémon with its type with only 51 unique Pokémon.
The Ice type has the most unique-type combinations with 18 different species containing it along with another type.
The Ice type is tied with the Ground type and the Ghost type for the least Gigantamax forms, each having 1.
Strangely, the Steel type resists the Ice type instead of being mutually weak to or at least neutral to it, despite the fact that very cold temperatures in the true x2 nonfiction life make metal brittle and ruin machines (which many Steel-types such as Magnezone are based on). Thick ice can also rip apart sheets of steel- an example would be the Titanic, which was destroyed by an iceberg. Conversely, ice can be futile against a large quantities of bulk steel.
In addition, the Rock type only takes normal damage from them instead of being weak to them, even though ice expands, and if the ice is wedged between the cracks of the rock, the rock will crack as the ice expands, linking to the reason the Rock type is weak to the Water type.
As of Generation IX, the only types that haven't been paired with the Ice-type are the Normal and the Poison type.
