Name Origin
Glaceon's name comes from the words Glacier and Eon. Glaciers are a huge mass of ice slowly flowing over a land mass, formed from compacted snow in an area where snow accumulation exceeds melting and sublimation. Eon is just an extension meaning over a long period of time, mainly because Glaceon is one of the many evolutions of Eevee.
