Beartic

() is an -type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Beartic is an ursine, quadrupedal polar bear-like Pokémon capable of standing on its hind legs. It has bluish white fur with a particularly fuzzy and plump underbelly and a shaggy tuft for a tail. Three spikes of ice hang from its lower jaw, forming a beard. Its face consists of a long snout, beady black eyes, and rounded ears. Its large forepaws have black claws and paw pads.
===Behavior===
Like Ursaring, Beartic is highly protective of its young, Cubchoo. When traveling they often give their offspring a ride.They spend most of their time on four limbs, though they will stand bipedally in order to intimidate foes or reach higher ground.
Beartic are capable of exhaling air at subzero temperatures, freezing the surrounding moisture. They use this ability to encase their paws and mouths with claws and fangs of ice, respectively, to attack foes. To cross large stretches of ocean, these Pokémon will freeze the waters beneath their paws, creating pathways of ice for them to walk on. They are also adept swimmers that spend much of their time hunting in the water; when tired, they will simply freeze the water beneath them to rest, creating new ice floes. With their thick fur and wide paws, Beartic are adapted to moving and living in icy environments.
They are often the focus of studies regarding changes in global temperatures because of how heavily they depend on large expanses of ice. A warming climate has caused many scientists to focus closely on the Beartic population, which has been slowly but steadily dropping every year.
==Evolution==
Beartic evolves from Cubchoo at Level 37.

==Trivia==
*The drop of mucus coming from the nose of its pre-evolution has become frozen and longer, now Beartic's "beard".
*Beartic is realistically sized; in reality, 8 feet is roughly the size of a polar bear standing on its hind legs.
*Beartic's BMI (based on human calculations) is 38.7, compared to the polar bear's BMI (again based on human calculations) of 51.2. This is partly because Beartic is a lot lighter than its real-life counterpart.
===Origin===
Beartic is based on a polar bear. 
===Etymology===
* Beartic comes from of the words bear and Arctic, as it is based on a polar bear.
* Its Japanese name, Tsunbeā, comes from ツンドラ (tsundora, tundra) and bear.
