"This unique twosome fights together as a team.  your score will not be affected if the [[CPU]]-controlled charcter is[[KO]]'d, but a lone Ice Climber won't be able to use teamwork moves, which mini-glaciers out of their hammers, while Squall Hammer is at its strongest when Nana and Popo combine their strength."

*Very long [[wavedash]]
*Opponents have trouble [[grab|grabbing]] an Ice Climber because the other Climber can interrupt the thrower

===Description===
"The colors of the Ice climbers' parkas denote who's in the lead: Nana's in pink and orange, while Popo's in green or blue.  their hairstyles are also slightly different.  Belay allows them to cover great distances, but doesn't give foes the chance to target their landing.  Blizzard is best used in close quarters; in the fray, Nana and Popo sometimes freeze opponents.
