===History===
Glalie was first seen in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]'', on [[Izabe Island]] as a Snorunt. It followed Ash and the gang through the snow to the [[Pokémon Center]], where it began to cause trouble and stole Ash's Badge case. Once Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Corphish}} cornered him, Snorunt froze Ash's {{Badge|Stone}}, threw it into the air and escaped with the rest of the Badges using {{m|Double Team}}. Snorunt then started dropping the Badges one by one to make its "game" more interesting. After a small meeting with Team Rocket, it froze Ash with {{m|Icy Wind}} and left the Center through the window into an oncoming snowstorm. Ash follows him and they end up lost in the snow. After Ash got knocked unconscious by protecting him from a small avalanche, Snorunt took him to a cave, safe from the blizzard. After Ash awakes, Snorunt hands him some apples and while Ash begins to trust the mischievous Pokémon, Snorunt runs off into the blizzard with his hat. He takes the hat back to the Pokémon Center and then leads the gang to where Ash is. Reunited, the gang scold Snorunt and ask for the other Badges; however they are interrupted by Team Rocket when they capture Snorunt and Pikachu. Snorunt quickly escaped and saved Pikachu, before battling Team Rocket's Pokémon. Later on, Snorunt still refused to return the Badge case, so Ash battled him and subsequently caught him. He was introduced to the gang's other Pokémon at the end of the episode where he continued to prank everyone.

Glalie debuted in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]'' on [[Izabe Island]] as a Snorunt. It followed {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} through the snow to the [[Pokémon Center]], where it began to cause trouble and stole Ash's [[Badge]] case. A chase ensued, with Snorunt leaving a trail of Badges to keep Ash pursuing it. After a small meeting with Team Rocket, it froze Ash with Icy Wind and left the Center through the window into an oncoming snowstorm. Ash followed it, and they ended up lost in the snow. After Ash got knocked unconscious by protecting it from a small avalanche, Snorunt took him to a cave for refuge and provided him with apples while they waited out the conditions. As Ash began to trust the mischievous Pokémon, Snorunt ran off into the blizzard with his hat so it could lead the others to where Ash was. Reunited, the group scolded Snorunt and asked for the other Badges before being interrupted by Team Rocket capturing Snorunt and {{AP|Pikachu}}. Snorunt quickly escaped and saved Pikachu before battling Team Rocket's Pokémon. Later on, Snorunt still refused to return the Badge case, so Ash battled and subsequently caught it. Snorunt was later introduced to the group's other Pokémon, though it continued to prank everyone.
In [[AG109|the next episode]], Snorunt joined Max in his effort to get an unwell {{p|Ralts}} to a Pokémon Center. During the journey, Snorunt used Icy Wind to make ice packs to combat Ralts' fever.


In the next episode, ''[[AG109|Do I Hear a Ralts?]]'', Snorunt joined Max in his effort to get an unwell Ralts to a Pokémon Center.
In ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]'', Ash chose Snorunt and Pikachu as his first two Pokémon in a [[Double Battle]] in the first round of the [[Sootopolis Gym]] battle, going up against [[Juan]]'s {{p|Sealeo}} and {{p|Seaking}}. Pikachu used {{m|Thunderbolt}} on Sealeo, but Seaking used {{m|Horn Drill}} to reflect it back to Snorunt. Pikachu then used {{m|Thunder}}, but Seaking used Horn Drill to reflect the attack to Snorunt again, but this time Pikachu protected Snorunt, taking most of the damage. Sealeo then used {{m|Blizzard}} on the two; Pikachu took a lot of damage but Snorunt barely felt the attack and jumped around happily. Snorunt then used Icy Wind to stop the Blizzard, creating an ice pillar that blocked everyone's view. When Sealeo and Seaking destroyed it, ice shards were sent up in the air, which Ash had Snorunt and Pikachu jump on to attack. Seaking then used Hyper Beam on Snorunt while Sealeo used Aurora Beam on Pikachu. Pikachu dodged, but Snorunt failed to, and the Hyper Beam knocked it out.

[[File:AG128.png|thumb|220px|Glalie defeating Clark's Charizard]]
Snorunt's first Gym battle was in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]'' against [[Juan]]. It battled along with Pikachu against {{p|Sealeo}} and {{p|Seaking}}, the latter's {{m|Horn Drill}} reflecting Pikachu's electric attacks back at Snorunt itself. It later recovered and used {{m|Icy Wind}} to counter {{m|Blizzard}} and created a huge ball of ice. Just as it went in for a new {{m|Headbutt}} attack, it was hit and knocked out by Seaking's {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
In ''[[AG114|Date Expectations!]]'', Ash began trying to teach Snorunt {{m|Ice Beam}}. While learning the new move, Snorunt froze people multiple times, including its Trainer and {{OBP|Anthony|AG122}}. Finally, in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'', {{Ho|Robert}} recommended that it focus its energy in its head while battling Team Rocket during the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]]. Snorunt then evolved into a Glalie and sent them blasting off with its newly mastered Ice Beam.


In ''[[AG114|Date Expectations!]]'', Ash began trying to teach him {{m|Ice Beam}}. While learning the new move, Snorunt ended up freezing people multiple times, including his Trainer and {{OBP|Anthony|AG122}}. Finally in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'', {{Ho|Robert}} gave him some words of advice on how to focus the attack while battling Team Rocket during the Grand Festival, Snorunt then evolves into {{p|Glalie}} and sends them blasting off with its newly mastered Ice Beam.
Glalie had several battles in the [[Ever Grande Conference]] and proved quite a powerhouse in Ash's team. In ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]'', it teamed up with {{AP|Grovyle}} to battle [[Clark]] and his Pokémon, {{p|Quilava}} and {{p|Charizard}}. Glalie's Icy Wind did not damage either Pokémon but managed to hold off a {{m|Heat Wave}}. Grovyle and Quilava both went down, leaving Glalie against Charizard. Glalie froze up part of the battlefield to avoid Charizard's {{m|Flamethrower}} but was knocked around its own ice pillars. It managed to change this to its advantage, using the momentum to raise its speed and a high-speed Headbutt to flatten Charizard and give Ash the win.
[[File:AG130.png|thumb|220px|left|Glalie battling Morrison's Metang]]
Ash used Glalie as his third Pokémon in his [[Full Battle]] against {{ho|Katie}}. It went up against her {{p|Dugtrio}}. Dugtrio used {{m|Dig}}, but Glalie used Headbutt on the ground, forcing Dugtrio to emerge and dealing damage. Glalie then used Ice Beam, knocking Dugtrio out. Glalie then went up against her {{p|Misdreavus}}. Glalie used Ice Beam, but Katie had Misdreavus take the attack. Glalie then used Headbutt, scoring a direct hit. While being hit, Misdreavus used {{m|Destiny Bond}}. The Headbutt defeated Misdreavus, but due to the effect of Destiny Bond, Glalie was also knocked out.

In ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'', Ash used Glalie as his sixth and final Pokémon in his Full Battle against [[Morrison]], going up against his final Pokémon, {{TP|Morrison|Metang}}. Glalie used Headbutt while {{p|Metang}} used {{m|Take Down}}, with Take Down dealing more damage. Glalie used Ice Beam, which Metang redirected with {{m|Confusion}}, hitting Glalie. Glalie's Ice Beam was reflected a second time, but Ash saw this coming and used Icy Wind to redirect the attack back to Metang again, hitting it. Glalie hit Metang with a Headbutt, but Metang countered with a super-effective {{m|Meteor Mash}}. Glalie used Headbutt again, spinning to increase its power, while Metang used Meteor Mash. Just before the collision, Glalie ducked, avoiding the Meteor Mash and hitting with the spinning Headbutt, knocking Metang out, winning Ash the battle, and moving him to the next round of the Victory Tournament.


Later, he was Ash's third Pokémon against [[Katie]]. It managed to {{m|Headbutt}} her {{p|Dugtrio}} into an exposed area and defeat it with Ice Beam, before going up against {{p|Misdreavus}}. Glalie easily beat Misdreavus, but fell to the effects of {{m|Destiny Bond}}.  
Later, Ash used Glalie as his first Pokémon in his Full Battle against {{ho|Tyson}}, going up against his {{p|Sceptile}}. Glalie used Ice Beam while Sceptile used {{m|Solar Beam}}, creating a massive explosion. In the [[AG131|next episode]], it was revealed that this explosion knocked out both Pokémon.


In Ash's battle with [[Morrison]] in ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'', he was sent out to battle [[Morrison's Metang]] once both Trainers were down to their final Pokémon. Glalie was disadvantaged as Metang's {{type|Steel}} gave it an advantage and its {{type|Psychic}} abilities allowed it to deflect Glalie's powerful Ice Beam. Finally Glalie recovered and used Icy Wind to reflect the controlled Ice Beam back on Metang. Then, using a rotating Headbutt, it slammed into Metang and defeated it.
=====Kanto Battle Frontier=====
In ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', Ash left Glalie at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] before he went to challenge the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.


In Ash's next battle, with {{ho|Tyson}}, Glalie was sent out to battle his {{p|Sceptile}}, where in [[AG131|the next episode]] they knocked each other out after a massive collision of Ice Beam and {{m|SolarBeam}}.
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''====
In ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', Glalie returned to Ash's team for the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]. Upon seeing its Trainer, it froze Ash with Ice Beam, which led {{AP|Torkoal}} to thaw him out with a {{m|Flamethrower}}. In ''[[DP185|Working on a Right Move!]]'', Glalie was seen training with {{AP|Torterra}} and {{AP|Infernape}} before Ash's battle with [[Conway]]. Ash was initially going to use Glalie because of its power to try to overwhelm Conway but he changed his mind as he knew that he couldn't depend on sheer power alone. Glalie was not seen participating in the Lily of the Valley Conference.


In ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', Ash left him at Prof. Oak's laboratory, before he went to challenge the Battle Frontier.
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Glalie was reunited with Ash in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', where it and the rest of Ash's Pokémon posed in a group photo with him.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
Glalie, along with the rest of Ash's Pokémon at the lab, reunited with Ash in ''[[JN114|Friends, Rivals, Lend Me Your Spirit!]]''. During the visit, it was seen sitting under a waterfall with [[Ash's Dracovish]] and later watched the battle between Ash and [[Paul]]. Before Ash left, it posed with the rest of Ash's Pokémon in a group photo with him.


===Diamond & Pearl series===
From ''[[JN118|Battling as Hard as Stone!]]'' onwards, Glalie watched Ash's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] matches against {{an|Steven Stone|Steven}}, {{an|Cynthia}}, and {{an|Leon}}. In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Glalie appeared as a vision to Pikachu during his battle against [[Leon's Charizard]].

Ash was initially going to use his Glalie because of its power, to try to overwhelm Conway, but changed his mind as he knew that he couldn't depend on sheer power alone. In the end, Glalie was not seen participating in the Lily of the Valley Conference.

In ''[[JN135|Heroes Unite!]]'', Glalie, along with the rest of the Pokémon at the lab, welcomed Ash back to Pallet Town after his victory over Leon.
Glalie was reunited with Ash in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', where he and the rest of Ash's Pokémon posed in a group photo with him.


==Personality and characteristics==
In ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]'', Glalie was seen playing with Ash during his time in Pallet Town.
In his first appearances as a {{p|Snorunt}}, he was very mischievous and troublesome, constantly playing pranks on Ash and the gang. Since his capture, he has been very energetic and giggly; seeming to laugh at everything whether it is good or bad. However, he has demonstrated that he can be serious a few times, namely when he rescued Ash from perishing in a blizzard or when he froze some berries to help [[Max]] treat a sick {{p|Ralts}}. Sometimes he seems irrational, most notably when he argued with a {{p|Kirlia}} over what was best for the Ralts Max had took in to his care. A running gag in the anime had him freeze people with his {{type|Ice}} attacks, usually Ash. Even after gaining control over his attacks he continued to freeze his Trainer when he came to [[Sinnoh]].

History

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

Hoenn
Snorunt training to master Ice Beam

Glalie debuted in Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt! on Izabe Island as a Snorunt. It followed Ash and his friends through the snow to the Pokémon Center, where it began to cause trouble and stole Ash's Badge case. A chase ensued, with Snorunt leaving a trail of Badges to keep Ash pursuing it. After a small meeting with Team Rocket, it froze Ash with Icy Wind and left the Center through the window into an oncoming snowstorm. Ash followed it, and they ended up lost in the snow. After Ash got knocked unconscious by protecting it from a small avalanche, Snorunt took him to a cave for refuge and provided him with apples while they waited out the conditions. As Ash began to trust the mischievous Pokémon, Snorunt ran off into the blizzard with his hat so it could lead the others to where Ash was. Reunited, the group scolded Snorunt and asked for the other Badges before being interrupted by Team Rocket capturing Snorunt and Pikachu. Snorunt quickly escaped and saved Pikachu before battling Team Rocket's Pokémon. Later on, Snorunt still refused to return the Badge case, so Ash battled and subsequently caught it. Snorunt was later introduced to the group's other Pokémon, though it continued to prank everyone. In the next episode, Snorunt joined Max in his effort to get an unwell Ralts to a Pokémon Center. During the journey, Snorunt used Icy Wind to make ice packs to combat Ralts' fever.

In The Great Eight Fate!, Ash chose Snorunt and Pikachu as his first two Pokémon in a Double Battle in the first round of the Sootopolis Gym battle, going up against Juan's Sealeo and Seaking. Pikachu used Thunderbolt on Sealeo, but Seaking used Horn Drill to reflect it back to Snorunt. Pikachu then used Thunder, but Seaking used Horn Drill to reflect the attack to Snorunt again, but this time Pikachu protected Snorunt, taking most of the damage. Sealeo then used Blizzard on the two; Pikachu took a lot of damage but Snorunt barely felt the attack and jumped around happily. Snorunt then used Icy Wind to stop the Blizzard, creating an ice pillar that blocked everyone's view. When Sealeo and Seaking destroyed it, ice shards were sent up in the air, which Ash had Snorunt and Pikachu jump on to attack. Seaking then used Hyper Beam on Snorunt while Sealeo used Aurora Beam on Pikachu. Pikachu dodged, but Snorunt failed to, and the Hyper Beam knocked it out.

Glalie defeating Clark's Charizard

In Date Expectations!, Ash began trying to teach Snorunt Ice Beam. While learning the new move, Snorunt froze people multiple times, including its Trainer and Anthony. Finally, in Rhapsody in Drew, Robert recommended that it focus its energy in its head while battling Team Rocket during the Hoenn Grand Festival. Snorunt then evolved into a Glalie and sent them blasting off with its newly mastered Ice Beam.

Glalie had several battles in the Ever Grande Conference and proved quite a powerhouse in Ash's team. In Shocks and Bonds, it teamed up with Grovyle to battle Clark and his Pokémon, Quilava and Charizard. Glalie's Icy Wind did not damage either Pokémon but managed to hold off a Heat Wave. Grovyle and Quilava both went down, leaving Glalie against Charizard. Glalie froze up part of the battlefield to avoid Charizard's Flamethrower but was knocked around its own ice pillars. It managed to change this to its advantage, using the momentum to raise its speed and a high-speed Headbutt to flatten Charizard and give Ash the win.

Glalie battling Morrison's Metang

Ash used Glalie as his third Pokémon in his Full Battle against Katie. It went up against her Dugtrio. Dugtrio used Dig, but Glalie used Headbutt on the ground, forcing Dugtrio to emerge and dealing damage. Glalie then used Ice Beam, knocking Dugtrio out. Glalie then went up against her Misdreavus. Glalie used Ice Beam, but Katie had Misdreavus take the attack. Glalie then used Headbutt, scoring a direct hit. While being hit, Misdreavus used Destiny Bond. The Headbutt defeated Misdreavus, but due to the effect of Destiny Bond, Glalie was also knocked out.

In Choose It or Lose It!, Ash used Glalie as his sixth and final Pokémon in his Full Battle against Morrison, going up against his final Pokémon, Metang. Glalie used Headbutt while Metang used Take Down, with Take Down dealing more damage. Glalie used Ice Beam, which Metang redirected with Confusion, hitting Glalie. Glalie's Ice Beam was reflected a second time, but Ash saw this coming and used Icy Wind to redirect the attack back to Metang again, hitting it. Glalie hit Metang with a Headbutt, but Metang countered with a super-effective Meteor Mash. Glalie used Headbutt again, spinning to increase its power, while Metang used Meteor Mash. Just before the collision, Glalie ducked, avoiding the Meteor Mash and hitting with the spinning Headbutt, knocking Metang out, winning Ash the battle, and moving him to the next round of the Victory Tournament.

Later, Ash used Glalie as his first Pokémon in his Full Battle against Tyson, going up against his Sceptile. Glalie used Ice Beam while Sceptile used Solar Beam, creating a massive explosion. In the next episode, it was revealed that this explosion knocked out both Pokémon.

Kanto Battle Frontier

In The Right Place and the Right Mime, Ash left Glalie at Professor Oak's Laboratory before he went to challenge the Battle Frontier.

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

In An Old Family Blend!, Glalie returned to Ash's team for the Lily of the Valley Conference. Upon seeing its Trainer, it froze Ash with Ice Beam, which led Torkoal to thaw him out with a Flamethrower. In Working on a Right Move!, Glalie was seen training with Torterra and Infernape before Ash's battle with Conway. Ash was initially going to use Glalie because of its power to try to overwhelm Conway but he changed his mind as he knew that he couldn't depend on sheer power alone. Glalie was not seen participating in the Lily of the Valley Conference.

Personality and characteristics

Glalie and Ash

As a Snorunt, it was initially mischievous and troublesome, constantly playing pranks on Ash and his friends. Since its capture, it has been very energetic and giggly, seeming to laugh at everything, whether good or bad. However, it has demonstrated that it can be serious a few times, namely when it rescued Ash from perishing in a blizzard or when it froze some berries to help Max treat a sick Ralts. Sometimes, Snorunt seems irrational, most notably when Snorunt argued with a Kirlia over what was best for the Ralts Max had taken into his care.

A running gag had it freeze people with its Ice-type attacks, with Ash typically being on the receiving end. Even after gaining control over its attacks and evolving into Glalie, it continued to freeze its Trainer, although now out of affection.
