-Scizor!
-That's Scizor calling! -Pika!
-Let's go! -Yeah!
Scizor.
-Sci... Scizor!
There it is! Incredible, Scizor!
Ah!
-It's beautiful...
Goh! Are you okay?
-Yeah! But what's wrong with Ninetales?
My Rotom Phone said it had a tranquil personality...
It's really angry!
Hey, Ash? What's effective against an Ice and Fairy type?
-Steel-type moves! -Right! Scizor!
We're gonna use Steel-type moves! Use Metal Claw!
Sci... Scizor!
No! Scizor.
-Scizor, return!
-Ninetales just...
-Goh, this is bad! -Pika...
If this keeps up, we'll be...
We've gotta come up with a good plan!
-Goh!
-Don't let go! -Pikachu!
-Grookey... Grookey.
-Grookey... -Grookey.
-Pikachu? -Pi... Pika.
That's right. So that means...
We got caught up in the Blizzard!
-A Weavile!
-Did that person save us?
-Hello... -Seeing the weak annoys me.
-When the Blizzard lets up, go home.
Wha... I've got an important mission
-that I came here to do... -You failed.
Huh?
You'd be toast if I hadn’t saved you. Both of you.
-All your Pokémon, too.
Wait just a second! What are you talking about, failed?
Hold on. He's probably connected with Project Mew.
Huh?
Isn't that right? Are you Quillon?
That's a name you don't need to know anymore.
-Hey, Quillon, did he really fail?
-Uh, do you mind if I ask one question?
What's an Alolan Ninetales doing here?
-Pokémon Hunters.
They captured it hoping to make a profit, but they were forced
to make a landing during their return trip.
It escaped around here.
I see. That's why it acted up when it saw us.
So, if we catch it...
We'll return it to Mount Lanakila.
Whoa, is that true?
-As you promised, go home.
I refuse!
-What's that? -My six hours aren't up yet.
Besides, Quillon, you're looking for Ninetales, right?
Yeah, what about it?
I wanna help get Ninetales back to its home, too!
-I do, too! -Pikachu!
But how do you search for it without clues?
I thought of something.
Since it was living on Mount Lanakila...
I figured it might try to go to a similar place.
Similar place?
See? Over there.
-It looks just like Mount Lanakila!
Right. We're headed out.
-No luck, huh?
Eyes ahead.
Ninetales...
-It's adapted to its environment.
Ninetales! I want to help get you back to your home!
-So please! Let us catch you! -Pikachu!
Poké Ball, go!
-Cinderace, let's go! -Cin.
Use Quick Attack!
Cin. Cin, Cin, Cin...
It's using Dazzling Gleam!
Cin... derace.
Cinderace!
-Are you okay? -Cinderace!
Hm.
-Cin... -Now use Blaze Kick!
Cin... Cinderace!
-This time, it's Aurora Veil! -Cinde...
-Cin. -Shake it off!
-Punch through it using Pyro Ball! -Cin.
Cin, Cin, Cin... Cinderace!
Now, Poké Ball, go!
-Grookey? -What was that?
I didn't expect that I meet it here...
Now what's that?
Regice. The Iceberg Pokémon. An Ice type.
Its body is covered in air 328 degrees below zero,
and it is said to have slept inside glaciers
for several thousand years.
Several thousand years?
Regice's body does seem to be made of glacier ice!
Regice may hold clues to the origins of Pokémon.
-It's very important. -Huh?
Pikachu, Thunderbolt!
Pika...
Goh! I'll take this one!
Thanks, Ash!
Ninetales!
I want... I want to help you! Please. Let me catch you!
Nine...
Ninetales!
Hold on a minute!
You need to trust me!
Nine...
Let's go! Back to Alola!
Back to Mount Lanakila, where your home is!
Nine...
-Nine...
Huh?
You'll do it?
Nine...
-Here it goes.
