PK009: Snorlax Snowman

is the 9th Pikachu short. In the dub, it is the 5th episode of Pokémon Chronicles.
== Blurb ==
Near a Pokémon Center on a snow-covered seashore, Pikachu and its friends make a Snorlax out of snow. That night, they wake up to see the snow Snorlax outside their window, come to life! All the Pokémon sneak out to play with the Snorlax, who leads them to a fruit tree growing on a cliff. Snorlax wants the fruit, but the cliff collapses under Snorlax's weight. Fortunately, everyone lands on the Snorlax, which acts just like a sled—but it slides all the way out to the shore and right onto a drifting ice floe!
The drifting Pokémon are sucked into a whirlpool, but Snorlax freezes the whirlpool into an icy viewing platform where everyone can watch Water-type Pokémon swimming through the sea. The Pokémon try to sail away on a boat made of ice, but it falls apart and two Lapras come to the rescue. They bring them to a land of Snorlax snowmen, where the snow Snorlax can join its friends, then take Pikachu and the gang back home. Pikachu and its friends fall asleep and wake up the next morning, back in the Pokémon Center. Their snow Snorlax is still outside—as it all a dream, or just some wintertime magic?
==Episode plot==
Near the Pokémon Center, the Pokémon are making snowmen. Totodile managed to build the biggest one, so Chikorita carves out two eyes. The Pokémon work on the snowman, carving out the details. After a while, the Pokémon managed to carve out a snowman Snorlax. At night, while the Pokémon sleep, Pikachu wakes up and finds Snorlax at the window, who waves its hand. The Pokémon are impressed and follow the Snorlax, who is at the stairs. The Pokémon follows Snorlax (even causing Psyduck to roll over the stairs) and arrive to a cliff, where they find a tree with an apple. Chikorita grabs it with a vine, but the apple slips out of the vine. Snorlax chomps down the apple, but falls down, causing a chunck of the cliff to fall down with them all. The Pokémon fall down, passing by a Dewgong and a Seel, onto an ice platform, which starts floating off.
The Pokémon are angry at Snorlax, who just falls down and sleeps. However, the Pokémon look at the sky, seeing aurora borealis. This makes a distraction, causing the Pokémon to be pulled down into a whirlpool. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt and Totodile Water Gun at the whirlpool, but nothing happens. Snorlax wakes up and uses Blizzard, freezing the whirlpool, impressing the Pokémon. They also see many Water-type Pokémon through the ice and admire the view (even causing Cyndaquil to stare at a Qwilfish). Later, Totodile uses Water Gun, followed by Snorlax's Blizzard. Chikorita and Bulbasaur use Razor Leaf on the chunk of ice, shaping it as a boat.
The Pokémon take the boat to the shore and watch a bunch of Remoraid following them. Suddenly, the ice boat starts collapsing and everyone sinks into the sea. Luckily, they are saved by Lapras, who take them to the shore. Pikachu notices more snow Snorlax at the ice glaciers, surprising everyone. The Snorlax joins the group and bids farewell to the Pokémon. Since it is late, the Pokémon feel tired and sleep on Lapras' back. The sun rises up and the Pokémon wake up in the center. Pikachu and the rest go back, where they made the snowman (causing Pikachu to roll down the stairs this time) and find the snowy Snorlax intact, who took them to a great adventure the day earlier.
