Synopsis
The story begins with Team Rocket lost in a blizzard. Suddenly, a Froslass appears and James checks it out. The Froslass beckons to them and Team Rocket follows it.
The scene switches back to the trio wandering about in the blizzard. They find a row of large rocks to sit on, sheltered by a small overhang of stone and seek refuge underneath. Dawn brings forth Buneary and hugs it to gain warmth. Ash gets a brainwave as well and calls Chimchar. Ash tells it to use Flamethrower on a pile of sticks to make a fire, but just as the fire is up, some snow from above falls on it, extinguishing the flame.
Suddenly, a figure appears out of the blizzard. It's a Froslass! Dawn checks it out on her Pokédex and the Froslass beckons to them. Suddenly, the blizzard seems to die down and a cabin appears behind it. The gang enter and the cabin seems nice and warm. Froslass even prepares some bowls of hot soup for them. Froslass then prepares a hot bath for the Pokémon. Piplup gets permission from Dawn to get in the hot bath.
Suddenly, as Piplup splashes in the tub, he becomes frozen in a block of ice. The trio find themselves sitting in an ice cave, eating shaved ice on leaves. Brock deduces that Froslass must have been causing them to hallucinate. Ash commands Chimchar to use Flamethrower to free Piplup, but Froslass uses Ice Beam to cut at the ice freezing Piplup. Dawn deduces that Froslass must be threatening them not to attack her. Her eyes glow blue (likely from Psychic) and Meowth is brought forth, frozen in a block of ice just like Piplup. Meowth explains that Team Rocket had fallen into Froslass's trap and said that they could have Meowth back if they find her friend Snorunt and bring it back to her. Meowth finishes by telling them they could have Piplup back if they bring back Snorunt.
Ash surprises Froslass by telling her she had no need to capture Piplup and that they would go and find Snorunt all the same. However, Froslass refuses to give Piplup back. Meowth translates that the last human she trusted took off and tried to steal her Snorunt friend. Ash reassures Froslass that they would bring back Snorunt and they set off. They began searching for Snorunt. Staravia returns and gives no good news. Ash then instructs it to search further up the mountain. Team Rocket is also searching for Snorunt. Suddenly, Wobbuffet spots Snorunt. Staravia flying ahead also spots Snorunt, and turns back to tell Ash and gang.
Team Rocket and our heroes are running after Snorunt. Suddenly, they bump into each other at a bend. Brock talks the two parties into working together, and they split up to find Snorunt. Snorunt, who is running down the road, is blocked by Team Rocket and the trio. The gang try to convince Snorunt to come with them just as a Hyper Beam blasts them and cause a huge explosion.
Out of the smoke come a Glalie. Dawn checks it out on her Pokédex. Glalie attacks them with another Hyper Beam. It then uses Leer on the defenseless Snorunt, then pick it up and goes off. Our heroes and Team Rocket follow. James then tells Carnivine to use Bullet Seed, which hits Glalie. Chimchar than uses Scratch which hits as well, causing Glalie to drop Snorunt. Buneary then tries to use Ice Beam, but Glalie dodges and uses Hyper Beam which hits both Chimchar and Buneary.
A man then drives up on a snowmobile. He identifies the Glalie as his and says that Snorunt are very valuable on the Pokémon black market. Brock says that he must be a poacher; this must be the human that had betrayed Froslass's trust. The poacher than picks up Snorunt and puts it into a cage towed behind his snowmobile. Ash tells the poacher that he is definitely getting Snorunt back, and even Team Rocket side with him; without Snorunt, they won't get Meowth back.
The poacher commands Glalie to use Hyper Beam. Ash tells Chimchar to counter with Flamethrower and the two attacks cause an explosion. Glalie emerges from the smoke and uses Leer. Chimchar falls to the ground unable to attack. Buneary than runs up and at Dawn's command, uses Dizzy Punch. Glalie uses Protect and counters with Hyper Beam. James then tells Carnivine to use Vine Whip while Jessie calls out Yanmega to use SonicBoom. Glalie dodges both attacks and then uses Hyper Beam. It hits, but James tells Carnivine to use Bullet Seed. However, Glalie uses Protect, and counters with Gyro Ball. It knocks both Yanmega and Carnivine into James and Jessie while Snorunt watches on.
Ash tells Chimchar to use Scratch and Dawn orders a Bounce from Buneary. Both attacks hit in succession. Glalie then uses Hyper Beam, which both dodge. Glalie then uses Gyro Ball which Chimchar manages to dodge but hits Buneary knocking it out. Dawn picks it up while Ash tells Chimchar to use Dig. It emerges behind Glalie and uses Flame Wheel, which hits. It uses Dig and follows up with Flame Wheel again. Meanwhile, Froslass is looking for Snorunt, and it sees some flames in the distance. Curious, it heads towards it. Back at the battle, when Chimchar tries to use Dig for the third time, Glalie stops it and blasts it into the air with a Hyper Beam.
It hits and Chimchar takes major damage. Ash encourages it and so does Dawn. Froslass appears behind a tree and watches the battle. Ash commands a Scratch, but Glalie uses Protect and then Gyro Ball. Chimchar takes a direct Gyro Ball hit. Ash tells Chimchar to get up as it was their only Fire-type and the only one who could defeat Glalie. The situation get worse and worse as Froslass and Snorunt watch the intense fight.
Froslass, touched by this display of courage, emerges and rushes right up to Glalie to attack with Fury Swipes. Snorunt cheers up at the sight of Froslass. Ash asks if Froslass wants to help Chimchar, and she nods. Ash tells Chimchar to use Flame Wheel, while Froslass uses Shadow Ball. Both hit and the poacher and his Glalie are sent flying into the side of Snorunt's cage, which unlatches.
Snorunt climbs out. Froslass and Snorunt run to each other and Froslass embraces Snorunt. Ash then praises Chimchar for its efforts. Ash then reminds Froslass about Piplup. Froslass nods to say that they could have Piplup back. Jessie and James run to Froslass and remind them of their deal about releasing Meowth, even to the extent of James putting his head in Carnivine's mouth. They then lock the poacher and Glalie in the cage after saying that Officer Jenny would come soon.
Back at the ice cave, Froslass thaws the ice around Meowth and Piplup. Piplup runs to Dawn and Dawn hugs him. Translated by Meowth, Froslass says that although her intentions to find Snorunt were good, she should never have kidnapped Meowth and Piplup and she was sorry. She continues to say that as a token of her appreciation, she would give them directions to town.
Standing behind Ash and his friends, Team Rocket decides now is the perfect chance to grab Pikachu. As they approach to do so, they slip on the snow and fall backwards, rolling down the slope. Caught up in a large snowball, they're launched off an upturned section of ground like a ramp, blasting off again. Our heros wonder where Team Rocket has disappeared to before bidding Froslass and Snorunt farewell.

Trivia
- Professor Oak's lecture: Lanturn
- A Small Thing, as well as music from Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, are used as background music.
- When this episode's script was revealed by Satoshi's seiyū Rica Matsumoto, it was labeled as episode 114 of the Diamond & Pearl series. The "official" episode count used by Shōgakukan differs from the count used by TV Tokyo and Bulbapedia, likely due to DP048 not being counted (as it is a clip show), and DP071 and DP072 counted as one continuous episode by the production crew.
Errors
- Froslass uses Slash in this episode, a move that it cannot legally learn.
- In the Dutch Dub Froslass is called male multiple times in the episode even though it only can be female
Dub edits
- The dub referred to Froslass and Snorunt as friends rather than mother and child.
