19x29 - A Real Icebreaker!

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: In pursuit of his eighth Kalos Gym badge

and entry into the Kalos League,

Ash challenged Gym Leader Wulfric at the Ice-type

Snowbelle Gym. However, our hero was roundly defeated.

NARRATOR: With the burden of doubt on their shoulders,

Ash and Greninja disappeared separately into the forest.

But along with great challenge comes great growth,

as the two of them finally learned how to harness

the true power of Ash-Greninja!

NARRATOR: Now, with renewed spirit,

Ash prepares for his rematch to earn his final badge!

SERENA: Hey, Ash...
