- Ash is training both his Chimchar & Grotle by having them fight against each other; it's actually good for his Grotle, as it'll need to be able to tank against its weaknesses. Now if he had an Ice, Bug, & Poison-type Pokemon on him (He's got the Flying type covered,) then he'd be all set.
- After the session, Grotle heals itself using Synthesis, which is an essential tanking move.
- Suddenly, from out of nowhere... AN AVALANCHE!!! We are going to die!!
- The said avalanche engulfs the gang & magically encases them in a huge block of ice.
- Then out pops a tiny little Snover, who noses itself around their frozen remains, then once he sees Chimchar thawing itself, it flees to safety.
- Chimchar then thaws out the rest of the gang with its fiery moves, who then begin to wonder how they got that way.
- That was Powder Snow?! That looked more like Avalanche to me...
- As the gang head out, they trip onto something, one at a time. They eventually find out that it's Grass Knot.
- Since they now know that a Pokemon is making fun out of them, they start flipping out & they begin to search for whoever done it.
- The Snover leaps out from the safety of his bushes & uses Ingrain to immobilize them. Luckily for Ash, his Grotle is still out, so he only needed to use its Razor Leaf to get them free, even though it sends them dropping from several feet.
- Oh %&$#! Snover knows GrassWhistle! Quickly! Put on the Soundproof Earmuffs! NOW!!!
- Unfortunately for them, they don't have Soundproof Earmuffs on them, & they collapse onto the ground like an unstable building, supposedly at the Snover's mercy.
- But... instead of killing them, Snover gives Ash a hug. What?! Is that Snover drugged or something?
- No, it just wants to have them try out his Snover Berries.
- Snover Berries!! The frozen treat that's garunteed to cool down the fire inside your body! Heh, nifty ad, if I might say so myself. If it would have different flavors like Ice Cream, then we would be going somewhere...
- As nighttime approaches, they say goodbye to the Snover, but they soon find out that it's all lonely, as to the title, so they decide to keep it along.
- As they're sleeping, TR finds the Snover, & picks one of his berries from a distance.
- They try it out, & they love what they're seeing; they could start a Snover Berry Stand, which would rake in the cash. Pfft, dream on!
- They capture the Snover, which wakes up the rest of the gang, & then...
- Incoming TR Motto! Mute the Television!!
- Motto finished. Unmute. I know what's going to happen afterward, so fast forward to morning, in which Grotle has yielded its own set of nuts, which attracted the attention of a few wild Pokemon.
- Ash nibbles on one of its nots, & is disgusted, so he hands it over to his Pikachu, which happily gulps it down.
- Suddenly, in the middle of their travels, an explosion is abound, & after the dust clears, Snover is encaged again, by none other than TR!
- The gang pursues them, but Grotle is lagging behind... Furstrated over itself, it finally manages to adapt by learning Rock Climb.
- Grotle quickly closes in on TR, who raises their altitude in the vain attempt to get away from it. Little do they know that with Rock Climb, Grotle can scale up any cliff, no matter how sheer it is.
- Grotle takes a flying leap at them & rips apart their balloon, & grabs onto Snover.
- With the help of Happiny & Staraptor, both of them are brought to the ground safely, & all is well once more.
- They travel some more, & they come across a group of children from a daycare nearby. The Snover enjoys the little children, & tags along them.
- Now that Snover is off of them, they head off to the town that's holding Dawn's next contest. What it's named, I can't remember...
Anyhow, it's great to see that Grotle has regained its maneuverability once it learned Rock Climb, but that means it can no longer be an effective tank for Ash... Damn...
