During your exploration of the Crown Tundra, you will have the opportunity to catch loads of Legendary Pokemon! Most Legendary Pokemon will be obtained through Dynamax Adventures; however, sixteen Legendary Pokemon, both new and old, can be captured in the Overworld. One of these select few Legendary Pokemon is none other than Galarian Articuno!
Players will have the opportunity to find and capture Galarian Articuno while undertaking Peony's Legendary Clue #3, the same he calls A Legendary Tree Of A Legendary Three, which focuses around the Galarian Legendary Bird Trio. At the far southern tip of the Crown Tundra is Dyna Tree Hill, home to a giant red Dynamax Tree. As you arrive to said tree, you will see Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres, with the three quickly attacking each other. However, just as they begin to battle, the three will notice your trainer and then disperse in different directions.
Unlike the other two Galarian Legendary Birds, Galarian Articuno will roam the Crown Tundra. Finding Galarian Articuno will be more difficult to find than the other two, as the Crown Tundra is a large area and you won't actually see Galarian Articuno roaming. Your best bet to finding it is to first fly to the Iceberg Ruins within Snowslide Slope, making your way south from there. Most trainers seem to be finding Galarian Articuno within Snowslide Slope in the area off the beat and track with loads of trees.
Once you find Galarian Articuno, you won't immediately go into battle with it like the other two Galarian Legendary Birds. Instead, Articuno will make copies of itself and you must choose the real Articuno in order to go into battle with it. If you pick and run into the correct Galarian Articuno, you will go into battle with it. If you don't, Articuno will continue to roam the Crown Tundra. Galarian Articuno will be at Level 70, knowing the moves Freezing Glare, Hurricane, Psycho Cut, and Psycho Shift. Since Galarian Articuno is extremely difficult to find, it is recommended to use the Master Ball on it. If you prefer not to, try to lower its HP as much as possible before using Ultra Balls. You can paralyze it make it further easier to catch, but do watch out for its Psycho Shift as it will cause your Pokemon to undertake its status condition.
