Neptune
but it is estimated that it is 70% rock and 30% ice. The gases of the atmosphere and frozen into the ice are likely methane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. Pluto is the only planet in our solar system (considered a dwarf planet since 2006) which has not been
The planet appears to be partly covered with frozen methane gas and to have a thin atmosphere composed mostly of methane.
The frozen planet is named Hoth, and it is a remote ice world in the Star Wars universe.
Well, obviously, Earth isn't a frozen planet. Neither is Venus. Mercury gets much bellow freezing in the night but at day it's temperature is around 400 celsius. Mars is almost always bellow freezing. The planets keep getting colder past Earth, as it gets further and further away from the sun.
Mars has a thin atmosphere and polar caps made of a combination of water ice and dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide). The atmosphere on Mars is about 100 times thinner than Earth's atmosphere.
Eris has a frozen atmosphere.

More likely.
In our own solar system, Uranus has a frozen atmosphere made up largely of ammonia and methane ice crystals.

That planet you're thinking about is most likely Jupiter. Jupiter has frequent and powerful storms in its atmosphere, including the Spot.
The more massive planet is more likely to maintain its atmosphere because its stronger gravity can hold onto the gases in its atmosphere better. The gravitational pull of the heavier planet can prevent gases from escaping into space, resulting in a more stable atmosphere compared to the lighter planet.

Pluto is the planet that is most likely to be made up of rocky materials and frozen gases. It is a dwarf planet located in the outer regions of the solar system, and its surface is composed of rock and ices such as nitrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide.
The planet appears to be partly covered with frozen methane gas and to have a thin atmosphere composed mostly of methane.
For a planet to have precipitation, it must have an atmosphere. Pluto is too small and gravitationally weak to retain an atmosphere, and even if it did, it would be frozen solid on the ground.
