'''Kanga Games''' (Japanese: '''雪であそぼ！''' ''Let's Play in the Snow!''), known as '''Winter Games''' on the ''Pikachu's Winter Vacation'' DVD, is the second [[Pikachu's Winter Vacation]] episode, and the third [[Pikachu short]]. It was first released in Japan on December 22, 1998.

In the [[List of English language Pokémon anime special home video releases (Region 1)#Pokémon Pikachu's Winter Vacation|United States]] and [[List of English language Pokémon anime special home video releases (Region 2)#Pokémon Pikachu's Winter Vacation|United Kingdom]], it was released on the ''Pikachu's Winter Vacation'' VHSes and DVD, for the first time in 1999. Later, this short was combined with ''[[PK02|Christmas Night]]'' to form ''Pikachu's Winter Vacation'', the 22nd episode of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], which first aired in the United Kingdom on October 5, 2005 and in the United States on November 25, 2006.

{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} arrive at their cabin and quickly get inside so they can warm up. As night falls, it starts to snow. The next morning, {{AP|Pikachu}} is the first one awake. After stretching with a yawn, it races to the window. And it is happy to see snow covering everything. Pikachu calls to the other Pokémon, then heads for the door. As the other Pokémon, [[Misty's Togetic|Togepi]], {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Squirtle}}, {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}, {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}, and {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, wake up, Pikachu races outside. The other Pokémon peek out the door but Psyduck brings them crashing down on each other. However, they too can see the snow, and quickly bolt off to join Pikachu in playing in it, although Psyduck face-plants off the porch.

A bit later, Togepi is walking backwards through the snow, Pikachu beside it. It's enjoying the footprints it's leaving, and goes into a stepping frenzy to leave a lot of footprints. It runs over to another trail of footprints, which Pikachu, doing another one of its impersonations, reveals they were made by Squirtle, which turns out to be the case.

Togepi makes its way over to a set of face-prints. Even Pikachu is confused by these, but it's revealed that Psyduck is continuing its face-planting routine to make a face-print trail. Togepi heads off again to look for more prints, but suddenly finds itself in a footprint even bigger than it. Who could this belong to?

Up above, {{MTR}} is watching the snowball fight, and laughing at them for being amateurs. Meowth picks up a large snowball, but begins to struggle under its weight. Meowth slams it down with a sigh, but then the snow collapses underneath it and Meowth goes rolling off with its snowball. It gets bigger and bigger as it rolls, eventually trapping Meowth in it as it goes rolling off into the distance.

The sled shoots past Squirtle and Bulbasaur, who look on in surprise. Bulbasaur decides to join the fun, grabs Squirtle with its vines, and uses it as a sled! The ride goes on, and eventually they go flying over the others. Not to be left out, [[Brock's Steelix|Onix]] lowers itself as a sled, so Vulpix, Psyduck, and Geodude can get on. It sends itself into a slide after the others.
