Icirrus Gym appeared in ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions]]'', where {{Ash}} challenged [[Brycen]] in a 3-on-3 Gym battle. At first, Ash, sent his {{AP|Krokorok}} against Brycen's {{p|Vanillish}}, but when Krokorok was partly {{status|freeze|frozen}} by Vanillish's {{m|Blizzard}} and subsequently struck by a {{m|Mirror Shot}}, Ash switched to {{AP|Scraggy}} instead. Although Scraggy's {{m|Focus Blast}}'s aim was still poor, it managed to hit Vanillish with sheer luck, allowing Scraggy to finish off Vanillish with a {{m|Headbutt}}. Brycen then sent out {{p|Cryogonal}}, which knocked out Scraggy rather easily, at least due to Scraggy's Focus Blast constantly missing. Ash next sent out {{AP|Pignite}}, who managed to defeat Cryogonal with a {{m|Fire Pledge}}. Brycen's last and strongest Pokémon, {{p|Beartic}}, however, proved to be too much for Pignite, defeating it with super effective {{m|Brine}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}. Ash was left with just Krokorok, who was in a type disadvantage. Despite of this, however, Ash managed to come up with a winning strategy and defeat Beartic, earning him the {{badge|Freeze}}.

Like in the games, the Gym is located underground, and is kept constantly cold. The battlefield is covered with ice, similar to a hockey rink, with large chunks of ice standing on it. The slippery conditions can offer a challenge of their own for unprepared challengers.
