Control Snow and Ice (Costs 3 Actions). Chien-Pao controls snow and ice in a 30-foot radius, shaping it into any form they wish. Using this action, if Chien-Pao moves snow or ice into a creatures space, they may force them to make a DC 16 strength saving throw, being knocked prone, restrained and taking 9 (2d8) bludgeoning damage on a failed saving throw. A creature takes half as much damage, and isn't knocked prone or restrained on a successful save.

Chien-Pao, the Ruinous Pokémon Chien-Pao resembles a leopard made of snow and ice, with saber-teeth made from twin sword blades. This construct was formed from the hatred of every soul slain by the being's cursed swords.
