Snover appears to have been based on the daikon radish, also known as the winter radish, which are traditionally harvested and eaten during the winter. It’s also possible that Snover was made to resemble a snow-covered fir tree. Its ‘hat’ resembles the kanji for mountain (山) which originates from a pictogram of three mountain peaks.
Snover may be a combination of snow and clover or cover (as in covered with snow). Alternatively, it may be a shortening of the phrase “snowed over”.
Yukikaburi is a combination of 雪 yuki (snow) and 頭 kaburi (head). Alternatively, it may also derive from 蕪菁 kabu (turnip) or 被せる kabuseru (to cover).

Snover is a creature with a white upper body and brown lower body that resembles a snow-covered tree. It will be two-thirds brown if male and two-thirds white if female. It has green eyes and three points on top of its head. Its feet and green tail are stubby, and there are two green spikes that resemble pinecones on its back. Five cones form its hand: a large central cone with four smaller cones around it. Edible white berries grow along Snover’s midsection. Snover lives on snowy peaks in warm seasons, but migrates lower as the weather cools. A curious Pokémon, it often approaches people and can be found inspecting footprints in the snow.
