Trivia
- Avalugg and Regice share the same category. Both Pokémon are known as the Iceberg Pokémon.
- Avalugg has the highest Defense stat of all Ice-type Pokémon.
- Avalugg and Bergmite were added to the Mineral Egg Group in Sword and Shield.
- In turn, their Egg Group combination is unique.
Origin
Avalugg resembles a tortoise and an iceberg. The way it carries Bergmite on its back may be a reference to aircraft carriers, specifically Project Habakkuk, a failed attempt by the British during World War II to create aircraft carriers out of a mix of wood pulp and ice in order to get planes close enough to take out enemy submarines. Its cycle of healing during the night and cracking during the day as seen in its Pokémon Shield Pokédex entry may reference the cycle of the polar ice caps in which they grow larger in the winter but melt during the summer.
Etymology
Avalugg comes from avalanche and lug.
Its Japanese name, Kurebēsu, is a portmanteau of crevasse (a deep crack in icebergs) and base.
