[Image Description: Four fan-made Pokemon based around snow angels, each with widely varying decorative elements.

The first Pokemon is a floating mound of ice resembling a snow angel. It has large cyan eyes with blue sclera. On its head are some brown wooden twigs and a cyan snowflake "halo". Cyan text outlined in teal to the right of the image reads "Snogelle".

The second Pokemon is a floating mound of ice resembling a snow angel. It has large golden eyes with blue sclera. On its head are a set of yellow protruding lights as well as a large yellow star-shaped Christmas tree topper with a green base. Little yellow lights line the ends of its arms, and little yellow lights surround a paler yellow four-pointed star emblem. Cyan text outlined in yellow to the right of the image reads "Glimmafrost".

The third Pokemon is a dragon-like snow sculpture. It has large violet eyes with blue sclera. On its head is a blue bucket with a lighter blue handle, being propped up by one of its hands. Two blue prongs are attached to its snowy tail to resemble tail spikes. Cyan text outlined in dark blue to the right of the image reads "Sculptrake".

The fourth Pokemon is a humanoid snow sculpture with stubby arms and bladed feet. It has large silver eyes with blue sclera. On its head are several blades that resemble slicked-back hair or antennae. Smaller pieces of blades are attached to its chest and resemble the decoration on a figure skater's outfit. Cyan text outlined in silver to the right of the image reads "Axleet".

Snogelle - Snow Angel Pokemon - ice It is said that when snow falls and there are snow angels on the ground, the snow that fills those indentations becomes this Pokemon. Children who aren’t very popular among their peers are known to wait for winter to make as many snow angels as possible. / They appear en masse whenever there is snowfall, and unless they are caught they seem to disappear as soon as the snow has melted. They tend to be very curious about discarded human-made objects.

Glimmafrost - Light Angel Pokemon - ice/electric When Snogelle decorate themselves with discarded lights, the remaining current flows through their body to trigger evolution. When evolved, they can use their lights for communication or to distract a potential foe. / Glimmafrost uses its flashing lights to communicate with others, able to form many messages through color, brightness, and flickering pattern. When its lights flash in many colors, it tends to mean that it is excited and very happy.

Axleet - Ice Skater Pokemon - ice/steel Axleet can skate across the land on its bladed feet as though it were a solid lake of ice. They are known to be as ferocious in battle as they are graceful. / Snogelle who gather discarded footwear and knives, or alternatively intact ice skates, may wear them and evolve through imitating humans’ ice skating maneuvers. They are quite fond of figure eights.

Sculptrake - Snow Sculpture Pokemon - ice/dragon Snogelle who find discarded buckets can evolve through repeated use of said buckets to pack more snow onto their small bodies, making themselves look much fiercer than they actually are. A constant assault of strong attacks will remove the excess snow, however. / Sculptrake are particularly fond of crafting bodies that resemble larger dragons for the intimidation factor. Its ability to control the snow attached to it means it is not burdened at all by the extra weight.

More Cantessy Fakemon, and some friends you've already gotten an early look at if you saw the holiday art last month! Snogelle and its three potential evolutions are all based around snow angels, as I had a bit of a scarcity in new ice-types for a while and that was the first thing that came to mind after Frostinal. Snogelle evolves based on one of three "discarded" objects, which display themselves in the evolutions: giving a Snogelle a set of Discarded Lights will get you the electric-type Glimmafrost, a set of Discarded Blades will get you the steel-type Axleet, and a handy Discarded Bucket will get you Scupltrake. ...honestly it was originally just going to be Snogelle and Glimmafrost, then I realized that I had a similar severe lack of dragon and steel types, so bam, there ya go XD Shame that I didn't think of these guys before I had our next Gym Leader's team figured out, otherwise Glimmafrost would probably be her ace hehe. But we'll talk more about her when I get to her! ;3

Reminder that if anyone wants to suggest moves for any Cantessy Fakemon to learn and some physical stats where I haven’t yet figured them out, feel free to throw ‘em at me :3 Links to their info pages will be provided in the replies!

[Image Description: A wintry scene featuring various Pokemon, both official and fan-made. A Glaceon (blue fox-like creature) is playfully chasing a snowy humanoid with blades in its feet that resemble ice skates while a snow sculpture with a blue bucket on its head watches. Two cardinal-like Pokemon, a bright red male and an olive-colored female, are flying in front of a snow-covered pine tree and feeding each other small white berries as two snowy humanoids, one covered in glowing yellow lights and the other wearing a snowflake and twigs on its head like a halo, watch them. Behind the tree, an Abomasnow (large ice-covered pine tree monster) is holding a crying Snover (smaller ice-covered pine tree monster) and shaking its free arm angrily at the birds. The background consists of a snowy field with snow-covered pine trees beyond the horizon.

There are three more images, but they are just the previous image with different layers visible to show off the different elements in full that would otherwise be obscured. The first features layer with the bird Pokemon and the skating Pokemon playing with Glaceon, the second features the unobscured tree, and the third features the angry Abomasnow and its Snover child alongside the snow angel Pokemon.

Welp! I may not be participating in any secret Santa events due to my self-imposed workload, but I just couldn't resist giving you guys something holiday-themed because I both remembered that cardinals were used a lot on holiday cards and I got inspired. So here's a little seasonal thing for y'all from Cantessy :D There's a decent enough number of ice-types in Cantessy, there'd have to be to justify having an ice-type gym leader in certain circumstances of course, and so I made a little wintry scene with 'em. We've got a pair of Frostinal sharing some berries, a sad Snover whose berries those were and their Abomasnow parent getting upset about it, and a Glaceon playing with some pals. I'm really proud of this one, honestly, it's been a while since I've drawn something with so many elements in it!

You may have noticed that a few of the Pokemon here are neither official nor have been revealed as part of previous Cantessy offerings. That's because I admittedly didn't make that many original ice-type families (most of the ice-types in Cantessy are official Pokemon woops) and the only other ones besides Frostinal were ones that I wouldn't otherwise be getting to in terms of going in-depth with them just yet, hehe ^^; So consider this a sneak peek at the other family! Their names are Snogelle (to the right behind the tree), Glimmafrost (at the top of the tree), Axleet (skating away from Glaceon), and Sculptrake (to the right behind Glaceon). Try to guess what secondary types they are based on their looks alone! Shouldn't be too hard to do, you guys are smart. Well, aside from any guesses to Snogelle's secondary type, I'm gonna go ahead and letcha know that one's pure ice type and evolves into the other three by...secret methods that I will go into detail about later :3
