Articuno is a legendary Pokémon that can be summoned via a [[Poké Ball]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Articuno's appearance is rare due to its status as a legendary Pokémon, and general high power. Its chance of appearing out of a Poké Ball is highly increased in the [[event match]] [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Articuno uses Icy Wind as its attack, where it will unleash a blast of frost from its body. Any character in Icy Wind's attack radius will take 25% damage and be frozen for a few seconds, much like being affected by a [[Freezie]]. Characters that are affected by Articuno's Icy Wind will also be sent towards the top of the screen with very high [[knockback]]; lighter characters could potentially be [[OHKO]]'d. Articuno's attack cannot harm the summoner.

The reason Articuno did not return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' is unclear, but likely because Articuno's attack has a similar effect to that of [[Moltres]], a Pokémon that appears in both ''Melee'' and ''Brawl''.
The reason Articuno did not return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' is unknown.

:''Clouds gather, the barometer plunges, and fresh snow falls from the frigid air when this legendary Pokémon takes wing. Graceful and elegant, it boasts long tail feathers that flap in the wind and are lovely to behold. As would be expected, its combat moves are based on its cold nature; they include Ice Beam and Blizzard.'' (''[[Pokémon Red & Blue]]'' 09/98)
