We report about this morning, all the ice feathers that are holding the sky together so it may make it through the day. You freeze the sky, if you are afraid that it will fall down. You freeze it, and you keep an eye on it, and perhaps you will keep yourself together as well.
My entry for @n0rtist 's awesome Science-inspired variant contest!
I am a massive cloud nerd and I've always wanted to do something like this for a pokemon so this was the perfect opportunity! The fact that some clouds are composed of solid ice is something I also love bringing into attention so hopefully people will be more aware of how cool Cirrus clouds are! The different parts of their body are based on different species of Cirrus too! Cirrocumulus being the main new addition trailing behind the wings, the ribbon-like antennae things being based on Cirrus uncinus, the tail feathers being based on Cirrus fibratus, and a new little scarf based on Cirrus floccus! Which also references Altaria's Mega Evolution!
It's sad removing the Flying type but Ice/Dragon is such a cool type combo so it makes up for it!
As for Abilities they'd have Cloud Nine and Snow Cloak! And they'd be able to learn Aurora Veil! Which I like to think serves as a reference to Cirrostratus and the rainbow halo effect they have when they pass under the sun!
Also I tried at first but I'm sorry Ken Sugimori idk how to do your artstyle
Image du satellite AQUA, le 04/12/2023 à 11 h 58 UTC : vu depuis l'espace, le Nil et son delta se démarquent du sable environnant.
Seuls quelques cumulus de beau temps bourgeonnent ponctuellement. À l'Ouest, de magnifiques nuages élevés surplombent le désert.
Il s'agit de Cirrus, formés de cristaux de glace dont la base se situe à environ 9 000 mètres d'altitude, soit sensiblement celle des avions de ligne.
Plus précisément, nous pouvons observer ici les espèces spissatus (les plus épais), fibratus (voiles et filaments), uncinus (virgules), et même la variété vertebratus sur la gauche.
Los cúmulos o cumulus
(cumulus en latín, que significa montón o pila)
Están las cumulus,
Las stratus, las stratocumulus,
Las cumulunimbus, las altocumulus,
Las altostratus y las nimbostratus,
Las cirrus, las cirrustratus,
Las cirruscumulus, las castellanus,
Las fibratus, las floccus,
Las spissatus, las uncinus.
Las cuerpas son como las nubes
La cuerpa queer tan sinuosa que tanta curva te desvía de la misma historia de siempre: plana, lisa y recta.
Fibratus
A tool for exploration and tracing of the Windows kernel. It lets you trap system-wide events such as process life-cycle, file system I/O, registry modifications or network requests among many other observability signals. In a nutshell, Fibratus allows for gaining deep operational visibility into the Windows kernel but also processes running on top of it. It requires no drivers nor third-party software.

we report cirrus fibratus, a blur of icy clouds, like a long exposure picture of the flow of a river. the sun is shining bright and has us squinting every time we step outside - it stays high in the sky for a long while lately.
We report: the sun is not the same anymore. We kept track of it throughout this day, and we saw how it skims the clouds and the top of the trees, how it has started circling around shadows more and more. We still got a little bit too pink when we stayed out in the open, though.

Striped Sky Above Coquitlam, British Columbia
Photographer: Ash Parameswaran; Summary Authors: Ash Parameswaran, Jim Foster
Featured above is a rather odd cloud formation I observed over Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada, one evening this past summer. This heavily striped sky may look like densely packed contrails, but in fact these clouds are naturally formed. They're high altitude cirrus clouds -- specifically cirrus fibratus. Found above about 20,000 ft (6,096 m), cirrus fibratus are typically oriented in the direction of the upper air wind flow and tend to form parallel, narrow rows. Though this type of cloud isn't uncommon, it's not often that the striping is so distinct. Photo taken on August 5, 2018.
Photo Details: Nikon Coolpix L20 camera; f/5.3; 1/272 second exposure; ISO 64; fl 17;, 3 images stitched.
Coquitlam, British Columbia Coordinates: 49.2838, -122.7932
Hiya, I'm back again like the human boomerang that I am. You've mentioned before that you really like clouds, so I was wondering what your favourite type is?
hiya, human boomerang!
that is a GREAT question, it’s so hard for me to choose a type so I’ve got many kinds I love
in no particular order, I’m just gonna start off with cumulus mediocris
I think they’re the perfect cumulus cloud — wide as they are tall, cute puffy cauliflowers! I wish I could sit on one
cumulonimbus calvus — great, billowing behemoths that I love purely because they are that. there’s nothing quite like watching these mutant cauliflowers sneaking up over trees and cliffs. what’s also fun about seeing them is they’re sorta like signs of what’s to come, and it gets you excited
polar stratospheric clouds — but the good nacreous kind made of ice crystals, not the hazy nitric acid ozone-destroying kind. I’m a sucker for shiny things, especially iridescence 😍🥰 they’re mesmerizing, you’d have to pull me away from staring at them for hours
featuring one of my own pictures, cirrus fibratus! they’re cool because they remind me of the fibers you get from pulling apart wool, they look so soft and gentle
cirrus uncinus — SO cute that they’re also called mares’ tails, very fitting. but they also remind me of ocean waves. I always look forward to a sunny day with mares’ tails in the sky
my own pic again, lenticular clouds! I know there’s three types but I don’t know how these would classify 🤔 part of why I really love them is because folks often think they’re UFOs / flying saucers on their own or disguised as clouds to fool us. they’re also very pretty and odd! I consider myself lucky to have seen these, I was probably a good 40 minutes from home closer to some mountains
mammatus — I got a picture of these once too, but it wasn’t a very good one 😖 one of my weather photography goals is to get a great picture of mamma clouds. next to the silly meaning of their name, I think they’re just cool and bubbly. it’s not every day you see giant bubbly clouds in the sky
thank you for asking, I got so very excited!!! I guess if I really had to choose a genus, it would be either cirrus or cumulus clouds 😌
Bu buluta ne oluyor? Uzak bir sirrus bulutundaki buz kristalleri, uçan küçük prizmalar gibi davranıyor. Alev benzeri görüntüsü nedeniyle ateş gökkuşağı olarak da bilinen, ufku çevreleyen bir yay, ufka paralel görünüyor. Ufku çevreleyen bir yayın görünür olması için, altta sirrus bulutları (burada sirrus fibratus) mevcutken Güneş’in gökyüzünde en az 58 derece yüksekte olması gerekir. Sirrus bulutunu meydana getiren çok sayıda düz, altıgen buz kristali, toplu olarak benzer şekilde güneş ışığını düzgünce kırabilmek için yatay hizalanmış olmalı. Bu yüzden, ufku çevreleyen yayları görmek biraz sıra dışı bir durum. Buradaki ateş gökkuşağı, bu ayın başlarında, ABD, Batı Virginia’daki North Fork Dağı yakınlarında fotoğraflandı.
