'''Dr. Freezegoods''' are snowmen wearing fez hats, and are found in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They ride ski lifts in [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]] and stand completely still unless they drop off on a slope. [[Yoshi]] cannot eat them, but he can step on their heads to rack up a few [[coin]]s. They're harmless to touch, but they do hog up the ski lift platforms, which can become a bit of a nuisance as they are solid and can therefore push the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] around. A certain Dr. Freezegood appeared in ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', allied with [[Bumpty]].

The more generic-looking [[Mr. Blizzard]] enemies of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' bear a resemblance to Dr. Freezegood, and several snowmen in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' do the same.
Being snowmen, Dr. Freezegoods appear in snowy climates. In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', Dr. Freezegoods appear in [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]]. In ''Yoshi's New Island'', they are found in [[Ski Lift Leap]], where, in the first area, they are skiing down slopes while in the second area, one is seen riding a ski lift. They crumble when they are touched, and they do not spawn coins.

Freezegood made a background appearance in ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', where it is shown to be allied with [[Bumpty]].
*Dr. Freezegood's name probably comes from Dr. Lovegood, or perhaps Dr. Feelgood.
*Dr. Freezegood bears a passing resemblance to Mr. Blizzard and [[Snawful]].

Dr. Freezegoods[1] are snowmen wearing buckets appearing in the Yoshi's Island series, including Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 and Yoshi's New Island. They ride ski lifts and stand completely still unless they drop off on a slope. Yoshi cannot eat them, but he can step on their heads to rack up a few coins and defeat them. They are harmless to touch, though they push a Yoshi around when touched.

Being snowmen, Dr. Freezegoods appear in snowy climates. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Dr. Freezegoods appear in World 5. In Yoshi's New Island, they are found in Ski Lift Leap, where, in the first area, they are skiing down slopes while in the second area, one is seen riding a ski lift. They crumble when they are touched, and they do not spawn coins.

Freezegood made a background appearance in Tetris Attack, where it is shown to be allied with Bumpty.
