==History==

====Orange Islands====

Snorlax then fought during Ash's following match against {{jo|Harrison}} in ''[[EP271|Playing with Fire!]]'', although it was fast asleep when sent out to fight {{p|Hypno}}. It was awoken, obviously irritated and angry by {{m|Dream Eater}} and proceeded to scare Hypno, then quickly put Hypno down with Hyper Beam. Unaffected by {{p|Steelix}}'s {{m|Wrap}} attack, it defeated Steelix in the same way. However, it could not pull off a third Hyper Beam victory against {{TP|Harrison|Houndoom}}, who reflected it back onto Snorlax with {{m|Counter}} at double strength, knocking it out in one blow.

====Hoenn====

In a special episode, Snorlax made a cameo appearance and was seen being awakened by the herd of {{AP|Tauros}}.

====Kanto Battle Frontier====

When Ash returned from Hoenn in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', with {{an|May}} and [[Max]], Snorlax befriended [[May's Munchlax]], and brought its power to bear against [[Team Rocket's mechas|Team Rocket's mecha]], taking it down easily.

Later, Snorlax helped Ash earn the Guts Symbol from {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}} in ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]''. [[Scott]] notes that Ash picked unusual types to battle the {{type|Fighting}} specialist Greta. However, Snorlax used Protect to absorb the blows from her {{p|Hariyama}}, and then took it down with an Ice Punch. Against her {{p|Medicham}}, Protect failed and it was hit hard by {{m|Focus Punch}}, which sent it flying into Team Rocket. Once the battle was resumed, Snorlax was frozen by Ice Punch from Medicham, but used Rest to recover while Medicham smashed through the ice. It was then pummeled by a series of Focus Punches, until its fully charged Hyper Beam propelled it into the ceiling and it crushed Medicham with a powerful Body Slam, giving Ash the victory.

It appeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', alongside Ash's other Pokémon. It was not in its [[Poké Ball]], like many of Ash's other Pokémon, but was found eating food from a kitchen in a restaurant. It was later used in the battle against the [[Team Rocket trio]], but it was sleeping. Ash tried to wake up Snorlax, but it merely rolled over, tipping the Team Rocket mecha over in the process.

It was then seen in ''[[DP184|Casting a Paul on Barry!]]'' where it defeated a female Trainer's {{p|Grumpig}} with a powerful Body Slam, helping Ash progress to the third round of the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

Snorlax was reunited with Ash in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', where it and the rest of Ash's Pokémon posed in a group photo with him.
