:::: '''Regardless of choice''': ''"Our mighty Lord of the Tundra, Avalugg, has done nothing to trouble any person or Pokémon!"''
: ''"We are. There’s certainly some logic to that. But if that is what you hope to accomplish, then we must judge whether this child is up to the task!"''
: ''"Who cares about the grandstanding? Let’s get to battling!"''
:: '''Let’s start!'''': ''"My musculature is as hard and unyielding as ice! Think you can break through?!"''

Gaeric is first introduced to the player at Avalugg's Legacy in the Alabaster Icelands. Gaeric is reluctant to let the player attempt to quell Lord Avalugg's frenzy, as he does not see the harm in Avalugg being strengthened by his frenzy, believing Avalugg will do no harm to others. He agrees to go along with the player's will if the player can prove their strength in battle.
