The heroes make their way up to the Alolan Vulpix's habitat. Liam found a few more Alolan Vulpix that were suffering from the poison, along with a white Sandshrew.

"[i]Sandshrew, Alolan Form. An Ice and Steel type. An ancient tradition of Alolan festivals that are still carried on to this day, is a competition to slide Sandshrew across ice as far as one can. Its ice-covered body lets it slide across the ground with bullet-like speed, sending its enemies flying when it hits them. [/i]"

Liam cared for it as well.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket's Meowth was asking the Alolan Vulpix if they saw any shady-looking people in the area around the time they started felling ill.
