With the business of the [[Red Gyarados]] over, Ash decides to challenge the Gym Leader [[Pryce]] but he isn’t in there. A lady named Sheila tells Ash and his friends that Pryce goes up to the mountains every morning to meditate under a waterfall. They hurry after her. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]; who were waiting at the gym, tail them. After finally catching up with Sheila, they see Pryce. Ash is shocked to see that Pryce is the man who saved them on the pridge in the [[EP236|previous eppisode]]. Pryce says that it would be pointless to battle Ash, because his emotional bonds with his Pokémon have dulled their senses. After Ash protests, Pryce sends out his {{TP|Pryce|Dewgong}}. He tells Ash that if he can beat Dewgong, hhe will get his Gym Battle. Ash battles him with {{AP|Phanpy}} and quickly loses. Pryce leaves after the battle, with Ash following close behind. Sheilah yells that it's dangerous to go into the mountains alone. Team Rocket, who witnessed the whole battle, follow Ash. Soon, Ash gets separated from Pikachu, and Team Rocket from one another. Jessie spots Ash and Starts the motto, and when James says his line they realise that they were both in the same bush. The chase for Pikachu eventually leads to the edge of a cliff, where Ash is cornered. Suddenly, Pryce appears and calls Team Rocket idiots for trying to forcibly steal someone elses Pokémon. [[James's Weezing|Weezing]] launches a [[smokescreen]], sending Ash, Pryce, and Pikachu over the cliff. Ash sends out [[Ash's Noctowl|Noctowl]] to help Pryce and [[Ash's Totodile|Totodile]] to break their fall using water gun. At the top of the cliff, Team Rocket is arguing over whose idea the smokescreen was, when Misty, Brock, and Sheila appear. Brock asks if they saw Ash, and Jessie and James run away, leaving Meowth to spill the beans. | With the business of the [[Red Gyarados]] over, Ash decides to challenge the Gym Leader [[Pryce]] but he isn’t in there.

Trivia
- Having Pryce's bitter attitude explained away with a haunted past might have been a throwback to the Pokémon Adventures manga.
- The English title of this episode is a pun of the phrase "as cold as ice".
- In this episode, Team Rocket uses a variation of their motto.
- Pryce is shown meditating under a waterfall, which is what Chuck is shown doing in the games.
- Meowth References the Miracle on Ice; when the US Hockey Team defeated the Soviet Union in the Medal Round of the 1980 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, New York.
Errors
- During the Who's That Pokémon?, the text says "This Pokémon is composed of three Magnemites" with the incorrect plural for Magnemite. The correct plural form for Magnemite, as with all Pokémon, would simply be Magnemite.
