Synopsis

On top of a hill behind the Pokémon Center, the Pokémon are making snowmen. They are all small, but Totodile has made a giant one. The other Pokémon decide to work on that, and Chikorita begins by marking the eyes. All the Pokémon work together so that, by that evening, they have made a very realistic Snorlax.

That night, while everyone is asleep, Pikachu wakes up and notices a white Snorlax in the window. Pikachu wakes the other Pokémon up, and they follow the Snorlax through the woods until they come to a tree on top of a very weak cliff that overlooks the ocean. Snorlax points an apple on the tree, which Chikorita gets down with a Vine Whip. Everyone runs for it, but Snorlax eats it in one bite, slamming down on the weak clifface, and making everyone fall. Luckily, they fall on Snorlax, who slides into the ocean.

Stuck at sea, the Pokémon yell at Snorlax, who just falls asleep. Togepi points put the Northern Lights, which they take a moment to enjoy. However, while they aren't watching the sea, they float into a Whirlpool. No type of attack can save them, but just as they think all is lost, Snorlax wakes up and uses Powder Snow, which freezes the water. They now effectively have their own aquarium, so they look at the water Pokémon for a while.

When it is time to go, Totodile uses Water Gun, which Snorlax freezes. Bulbasaur and Chikorita then use their Razor Leaf, which somehow turns the Ice block into a boat. They use it to head back, but Geodude's bouncing around makes the boat fall apart. They sink, but two Lapras come to the rescue, and take them to an island where there are many more white Snorlax. As Snorlax waves, the Lapras take the rest of the Pokémon back to the Pokémon Center.

Everyone falls asleep, and when they wake up they are already back at the Center. Pikachu suddenly wakes up and asks the Pokémon something. They all nod in assent, and they run up the hill to where they see the snowman sitting in the sun where they left it.
