Dot passes the practical application test with flying colors which was conducted by Gym Leader Aoki in Chanpuru Town! The three of them head to Fridge Town where Roy's practical application test will take place! Fridge Town is located at the top of Mt. Napper, a snowy mountain towering over the Paldea region. Roy gets excited when he hears about snow, but...!?


▲ The three of them get bundled up against the cold as they climb the very cold Mt. Napper.


▲ The Dot's Kuwassu evolved into a Welkamo during in the practical application test. It's reliable even on snowy mountains!


▲ They are all excitedly building a snowman and ice skating on the frozen lake.


▲ At Mt. Napper, there are many Pokémon that the three of them have never seen before!


▲ Kachikohru and Sebie are fighting with each other! For some reason, Hogator is also there when fight breaks out......!?

The sun is setting, but they still have a long way to go before they get to Fridge Town. So the three of them decide to rest for the night in a mountain lodge. They go out to find firewood for the fireplace before it gets dark. However, Roy still hasn't returned!


▲ Roy and Hogator split up to gather firewood. Taikaiden searches for firewood from the sky.


▲ Everywhere in the snowy mountains looks exactly the same!? Hogator gets separated from Roy.

A Tunbear lives nearby... so he needs to find Hogator quickly......!! Tonight at 6:55pm, watch the rest of the Pokémon anime! We'd never thought we'd say this in the middle of summer vacation, but snowy mountains are dangerous, so everyone please be careful!!
