Like the other {{type|Ice}} Gyms, the challenge here is a skating challenge. There are curved surfaces which curves the skating. Colored switches will redirect them. After the second Trainer, there is a ramp that can be jumped. After the fourth Trainer, another ramp is present.
Like in most other {{type|Ice}} Gyms, the challenge here is a [[Ice tile|skating]] challenge. There are curved surfaces which curve the skating. These surfaces can be redirected by stepping on colored switches. There are also two sets of ramps that can be jumped to get over seemingly bottomless ravines. After defeating Brycen, the {{player}} can take a long ice slide back to the entrance.


Although the Gym is no longer used in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, it can still be entered and traversed. Brycen does appear at the end of the icy paths where he will briefly talk to the {{player}} before leaving.

Although the Gym is no longer in use in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, it can still be entered and traversed, with the Gym puzzle still active. Brycen does appear at the end of the icy paths, where he will briefly talk to the player before leaving. Talking to Brycen here is one of the requirements for unlocking the fourth and final [[Brycen-Man Series|Brycen-Man]] movie at [[Pokéstar Studios]].

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}} attacks. Ash was left with just Krokorok, who was in a type disadvantage. Despite this however, Ash managed to come up with a winning strategy and defeat Beartic, earning him the {{badge|Freeze}}.
Icirrus Gym appeared in ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions]]''. The Gym's arena is covered with ice and can be a bit tricky to move on, as Ash's Pokémon experienced in their battle. {{Ash}} challenged [[Brycen]] in a 3 on 3 match where Ash came out victorious earning himself 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.

|desc={{p|Vanillish}} was the first Pokémon Brycen used against Ash in their Gym battle. At first, Ash sent out {{AP|Krokorok}}. However, after Krokorok had failed to land any hits on Vanillish and taken some [[damage]], Ash recalled him and sent out {{AP|Scraggy}} instead. Scraggy found it difficult to work properly on an icy field, and was at first unable to land any hits. He was, however, able to block Vanillish's Icicle Spear with his "pants" before firing a {{m|Focus Blast}}. By a stroke of luck, Focus Blast hit Vanillish from behind, and Scraggy was able to finish the Icy Snow Pokémon with a {{m|Headbutt}}.
 
Vanillish's known moves are {{m|Astonish}}, {{m|Icicle Spear}}, {{m|Blizzard}} and {{m|Mirror Shot}}.}}

|desc={{p|Cryogonal}} was the second Pokémon Brycen used against Ash in their Gym battle. [[Ash's Scraggy]] was unable to land a single hit on the Crystallizing Pokémon before he was [[fainting|knocked out]] by a powerful Aurora Beam. Next Ash sent out his {{AP|Pignite}}, whose {{m|Flame Charge}} was blocked by Cryogonal's Reflect. However, despite scoring several hits on Pignite with Rapid Spin and Frost Breath, Cryogonal was unable to stand out the Fire Pig Pokémon's {{m|Fire Pledge}}, and was knocked out.
 
Cryogonal's known moves are {{m|Rapid Spin}}, {{m|Aurora Beam}}, {{m|Reflect}} and {{m|Frost Breath}}.}}

|desc=Brycen has a {{p|Beartic}} as his main Pokémon.
 
Beartic was used in a Gym Battle against {{Ash}}, as the third and final Pokémon used by him. It was able to easily defeat {{AP|Pignite}} despite the type disadvantage with its super-effective Brine and Aerial Ace attacks, leaving Ash with just {{AP|Krokorok}}. Beartic was repeatedly able to block Krokorok's attacks, until the Desert Croc Pokémon finally scored direct hits on it with {{m|Stone Edge}} and {{m|Dig}}. After this, Krokorok grabbed two stones from his own Stone Edge, and collided with Beartic's Aerial Ace with the stones in his hands, defeating the Freezing Pokémon and earning Ash the {{badge|Freeze}}.
 
Beartic's known moves are {{m|Brine}}, {{m|Ice Punch}}, {{m|Icicle Crash}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}.}}

===Pokémon Adventures===
The Gym is preceded by Brycen's home, which is filled with numerous items and posters from the time he used to be a movie star.
 
===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Icirrus Gym appeared in ''[[PS503|Tooth and Claw]]'', ''[[PS504|The Cold Hard Truth]]'', and ''[[PS505|A Cold Reception]]'', during the time when {{adv|Black}} challenged the Gym. After making his way through the ice maze, he started his battle with Brycen. During the battle, Black asked Brycen about the talk about "truth" and "ideals" he and [[Drayden]] had had at the [[Tubeline Bridge]]. Brycen explained that as [[Team Plasma]] had stolen the [[Dark Stone]] and were attempting to revive {{p|Zekrom}}, Black should take the [[Light Stone]] to awaken {{p|Reshiram}} in order to fight Zekrom. After a while of thinking, Black agreed to this, saying that as {{adv|N}} was also attempting to defeat [[Alder]], he was bound to face him at some point.
 
Meanwhile, as the battle progressed, both sides were left with just one Pokémon: [[Costa]] the {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Beartic}}, respectively. Despite taking multiple hits from Beartic's {{type|Fighting}} moves, Costa managed to hang on and [[evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Carracosta}}. After Beartic seemingly defeated Costa, Brycen handed the Light Stone to Black. Upon hearing that the {{un|Pokémon League}} tournament was going to be held despite of Team Plasma's actions, Black revealed that Costa hadn't been defeated after all, and used the opportunity to defeat Beartic, after which Brycen gave Black a {{badge|Freeze}} as a sign of his victory.

|epname=Up in the Air
|desc={{p|Cryogonal}} is Brycen's first seen Pokémon. It was first seen with its Trainer at the Celestial Tower. Later, Cryogonal was used to battle the Shadow Triad and used its ice chains to easily defeat their Pokémon. When Brycen was training Black, it held Black's leg with an ice chain, forcing Black to try and find out how to break it. In Black and Brycen's Gym battle, it fought Black's {{p|Emboar}}, [[Bo]], but was quickly defeated.
 
None of Cryogonal's moves are known, and its Ability is {{a|Levitate}}.}}

|desc={{p|Vanillish}} was first seen being used to train with [[Musha]], [[Costa]], and [[Tula]]. Later, it fought in a Gym battle against Bo, Musha, and Costa. After defeating Bo and Musha, Vanillish was defeated by Costa's {{m|Scald}} attack, which melted the snow off of its body.
 
Vanillish's only known move is {{m|Hail}}, and its Ability is {{a|Ice Body}}.}}
 
{{TrainerPoké

|desc={{p|Beartic}} is the fifth Pokémon Brycen is known to have. It was first seen with its Trainer at the [[Dragonspiral Tower]]. Later, it fought Black's {{p|Tirtouga}}, Costa, in a Gym battle. With its powerful claws, Beartic almost defeated Costa, only to be defeated once Costa evolved into {{p|Carracosta}}, giving him the power to win.
 
Beartic's known moves are {{m|Superpower}} and {{m|Focus Blast}}, and its Ability is {{a|Snow Cloak}}.}}
