In the [[Nintendo DS|DS]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)|version]], Rouge is first seen in the area past the mechanical gate that [[Tails]] is required to fix in [[Frostown]]. When approached, Rouge is in deep thought as to the whereabouts of [[Shadow (character)|Shadow]], and does not seem concerned with the stolen Olympic memorabilia. Later on in [[Cubyrinth]], Shadow mentions seeing a flying treasure hunter and accepts to join the team in case any troubles might arise with the hunter (who is really Rouge).

Later on in [[Cubyrinth]], Shadow mentions seeing a flying treasure hunter and accepts to join the team in case any troubles might arise with the hunter (who is really Rouge).  


Mario and Sonic make a deal with Rouge to exchange Whitestones with her for Olympic memorabilia; each piece is worth three whitestones. Shadow, or anyone else who the player chooses, faces off against her when [[Bowser]] and [[Dr. Eggman]] bribe her with a ton of Whitestones to defeat the player in Figure Skating, tricking her. She accepts, unaware that it is a trick, but when defeated, she aids the player and helps free [[Blizza]]. While this is happening, Eggman and Bowser capture [[Frosty]], but Rouge quickly pursues them. When talked to afterward in [[Frostown]], [[Cubyrinth]], or [[Sparkleton]] if the player is at that point already, Rouge apologizes for letting her greed get the better of her and mentions how Bowser and Eggman gave her the slip.

From then on, Rouge continues the Whitestones dealings and continues from town to town searching for memorabilia. She is later seen in the credits of the Adventure Tours after Bowser and Dr. Eggman are defeated again in a picture with the other villains: Bowser, Dr. Eggman, [[Bowser Jr.]], [[Metal Sonic]], [[Eggman Nega]], [[King Boo]], Boo, [[Dry Bones]], [[Big Bullet Bill]], [[Omega]] and [[Jet (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Jet]]. [[Dry Bowser]] is the only villain absent from the picture.
