1st Part

* **TRAINER**! It’s so great to see you! The strangest things have been happening lately.
* You see, I begin each day with a Pinap Berry and coffee for breakfast, then head outside my lab to take in the crisp morning air before starting my research.
* A couple days ago, however, I stepped outside and slipped on a sheet of ice right outside the entrance of my lab! Coffee—spilled. Pinap Berry—squished. Day—ruined.
* At first, I thought the ice formed because it was an especially chilly day, but it was in fact nowhere near cold enough to create a sheet of ice that thick!
* For my sake—and my breakfast’s—can you help me research Ice-type Pokémon to see whether we can discover anything? \*sniffle\* My poor breakfast...

2nd Part

* Great work, **TRAINER**! We’ve learned quite a bit about Ice-type Pokémon, and it looks as if you’ve caught a few interesting ones!
* I feel like we’re getting closer to finding out the cause of my breakfast’s untimely demise. Oh! There’s something I forgot to mention.
* That very evening—after an incredibly sad, breakfast-less day—I was trying to cheer myself up by dressing in my comfiest pajamas and drinking a cup of herbal tea before tucking into bed.
* As I lay there, ready to count Mareep and fall asleep, I was suddenly awoken by some unnerving tapping outside my lab! It sounded like...tap-dancing?
* I was simply too comfortable in bed—and too frightened—to get up and check. All I could do was lie there and hope the tapping would end soon.
* I now believe source of that tapping was the same Pokémon that created the sheet of ice in front of my mobile lab.
* Can you investigate some Pokémon related to making peculiar sounds? Let’s see whether we can get closer to solving this case before it goes cold.

3rd Part

* ... ... ... OH! **TRAINER**, you scared me. I was a bit distracted thinking about the tap-dancing I heard last night, as well as the shadow I saw pass by my window.
* Oh, I didn’t mention that last part? Yes, it was quite an unnerving experience! Anyway, let me take a look at all the research you’ve done.
* Oh! OH! Oh my goodness! All right, I think I know the source of these strange occurrences now.
* I believe the culprit is the Galarian form of the Barrier Pokémon—Mr. Mime!
* Galarian Mr. Mime is known as the Dancing Pokémon. It likes to create a sheet of ice and tap-dance on it. What a strange Pokémon!
* While Galarian Mr. Mime is the prime suspect, it’s still just a hunch. Can you go out and do a bit more research to confirm? Maybe you might even come across a Galarian Mr. Mime!

4th Part

* Phew! Great job catching that Galarian Mr. Mime, **TRAINER**! I guess it’s not as frightening as I first thought.
* Perhaps it’ll become even more approachable when it evolves?
* I’ve read that Galarian Mr. Mime evolves into Mr. Rime, the Comedian Pokémon. Mr. Rime is apparently highly skilled at tap-dancing and waves its cane of ice in time with its graceful movements.
* I wonder whether it could teach me some new moves. Haha! Anyway, how about you try evolving your Galarian Mr. Mime?

5th Part

* What a fascinating Pokémon Mr. Rime is! Thank you for evolving your Galarian Mr. Mime, **TRAINER**.
* I've heard stories of Mr. Rime’s amusing movements, and you know what? Color me amused. What a COOL discovery this was!
* This has definitely been an unforgettable adventure, but I’m not sure I can say I’d do it again, given the chilling way it started. My poor breakfast...
* Until next time, **TRAINER**. Let’s GO!
