== Zapdos Appears/Lawrence III Captures Zapdos and our Heroes/Meeting Lawrence III ==
(Meanwhile, Ash and Pikachu continue up the stairs)

* Ash: Pikachu!
* Rabbit: Stop going so fast!

(As Pooh and Pals, Ash and Pikachu ascend, Team Rocket spots them)

* Jessie: Hey, look!
* James: There they are!
* Meowth: I can't believe our luck!
* James: Yeah.
* Meowth: Pikachu.
* Jessie: We'll get you.

(Team Rocket laughs as Ash reaches the top of the stairs. At the bottom, stands a shrine. And in this shrine, is a statue of Moltres, holding a red sphere)

* Pikachu: Pika. Pika Pika Pikachu. ("In there. Take the sphere from Moltres' mouth.")
* Ash: The ancient sphere.
* Rabbit: Well, get it out.

(Ash pulls with all his might)

* Pikachu: Pikachu! Pika Pika! ("Pull harder! Put your back into it!")
* Tigger; You can do it, Ashy Boy!

(Finally, the orb comes out as the wind dies down. Ash looks at the orb and sees a flame within it)

* Pikachu: Pika! ("Come on!")

(As Pooh and Pals, Ash and Pikachu head to the boat, however...)

* Meowth: Guess who, Pikachu?!
* Ash: Was that...?
* Piglet: Oh, dear.
* Tigger: Uh-oh.
* Jessie: Prepare for more trouble than you've ever seen!
* James: And make it double, we're on the big screen!
* Ash: I'll have to catch this on video!

(Team Rocket stumbles in disbelief at Ash's comment)

* Ash: I'm in a hurry here! And the weather's looking bad!
* Jessie: It has been bad. Isn't that always our luck? But our luck's changed, and our ship has finally come in!
* Winnie the Pooh: You mean that?

(Suddenly, behind them, Melody's boat comes in with the rest of the gang on board)

(Team Rocket gets out of the way in time as the boat slides down toward Pooh and Pals, Ash and Pikachu)

* Melody: Well, I hope you're happy, mister hero. If you had just listened to me in the first place and stayed at the party like I told you, we wouldn't be stranded out here on this island.
* Rabbit: (angrily) How about a "Nice to see you?" Or "Glad you're still alive?!"
* Tigger: (pounces on Rabbit, holds his mouth shut) This is no time to go into pieces, Long Ears. We got more spheres to find.
* '''Rabbit''': Uh. Yes, of course. You're right. I'm sorry.
* Misty: Welcome to my world. I have to deal with his stubborn attitude every single day.
* Melody: Oh, you'll get used to it. It's just something you're gonna need to work on when the two of you get married.
* Misty: Take that back!
* Jessie: Listen to me, kid. When you get involved with the opposite gender, you're only asking for trouble!
* James: Yes, and that's the kind of trouble, I stay out of.
* Meowth: Yous two don't need da opposite gender, 'cause ya got each other. (laughs)
* Jessie: What does that mean?!
* James: Not funny!
* Tigger: I don't think you should talk about things like that.
*Rabbit: Tigger’s right. Wait a minute. “Tigger’s right?” That can’t be right.

(Suddenly, lightning bolts are seen coming their way. And then, they spot Zapdos overhead as Ash and Team Rocket take cover)

* Tigger: What's that? What's that?
* Ash: You guys, it's Zapdos.
* Pikachu: Pika. ("No way.")

(As Zapdos flies over them)

* Tigger: DUCK!

(they narrowly dodge the lightning that comes from it. As Zapdos comes back around, Pikachu charges up a Thunderbolt)

* Ash: Pikachu, no!

(Pikachu fires a bolt and it gets Zapdos' attention, but Zapdos sends one right back, knocking Pikachu back)

* Pooh and Pals: (gasp)
* Ash: Are you okay?!

(Zapdos lands and its bolts disappear as an aura and slight antigravity occur)

* Rabbit: It's some kind of electromagnetic field, that's why there's slight antigravity.

(Pikachu fires another bolt at Zapdos, and another, and it seems like they're both non-effective attacks)

* Jessie: Pikachu's pretty tough, but Zapdos isn't even feeling its attacks!
* Meowth: Dose aren't attacks, Jessie. Pikachu's tryin' ta talk to Zapdos. It's sayin, "What are you doin' over here on Fire Island, Zapdos, an' where's Moltres?"
* Jessie: Good questions.

(Pikachu fires another bolt, and he soon gets an answer)

* Jessie: Translation?
* James: What's it saying?
* Meowth: It's saying "Moltres used ta rule here, but now dat Moltres is gone, lightning shall rule over fire and I claim dis island as my own from dis day forward!" Heh. I guess Moltres flew da coop.

(Zapdos sends out a barrage of lightning bolts, but the bolts are soon attracted by something, and our heroes and villains take notice. It's revealed that the airship is what's attracting the lightning, and our heroes quickly take notice, amazed, though Team Rocket is terrified, at the size and look of the airship while Pikachu stands ready to attack. Inside the airship...)

* Computer: Absorbing Zapdos' electrical energy.
* Lawrence III: Drained of its power, Zapdos will be too weak to resist capture.

(Once enough energy was drained, the capture devices are sent out, but Zapdos goes up to meet them. Zapdos narrowly misses a couple, but our heroes and Team Rocket end up getting trapped)

(Ultimately, Zapdos is captured and our heroes are brought into the airship with it)

* Lawrence III: Once I capture Articuno, the real prize will appear.

(We soon see and hear Lugia within the ocean. But back in the airship, the gentleman gets the alert about our heroes and villains)

* Computer: Code blue three. When capturing Zapdos, we collected something, more.
* Lawrence III: (surprised) More?

(Down in the lower deck, our heroes are locked in a cage between Zapdos and Moltres)

* Tigger: Boy, they must really hate salesmen.
* Rabbit: Uh, suddenly getting those spheres doesn't seem like such a good idea.
* Piglet: Pooh, look! (points)

(our heroes see the captive Zapdos and Moltres)
* Tracey: Zapdos and Moltres!
* Rabbit: This is despicable.

(Melody looks and sees a tablet with the Shamouti prophecy on it)

* Melody: Hey, what's this?
* Winnie the Pooh: It's a tablet.
* Eeyore: If you ask me, not that anybody is, can you read what it says?
* Melody: Let's see. "Disturb not the harmony of fire, ice, or lightning lest these titans wreak destruction upon the world in which they clash."
* Piglet: Don't look now, but I think we have company.

(Soon, Lawrence III comes down)

* Lawrence III: Well this certainly is a pleasure, though an unexpected one. What do you think? Moltres the bird of fire and Zapdos the bird of lightning. Of course, without Articuno, it's not a complete set, but..
* Misty: That's disgusting! The way you talk, it's like Pokémon are like things to collect, like dolls or stamps! What kind of trainer are you?!
* Lawrence III: I'm afraid I'm not a trainer, young lady. I am merely, a collector.
* Rabbit: So, you're the collector Zordon warned us about: Lawrence III.
* Lawrence III: Quite correct. I began my collection with a Mew card and, now I have all this. Legendary Pokémon have always been my passion.

(As Lawrence talks, he lets our heroes and Team Rocket go)

* Lawrence III: And soon, my collection itself will be legendary.
* Winnie the Pooh: I don't suppose you'd be statisfied with a hug instead?
* Computer: Sensors indicate Articuno is changing course.
* Lawrence III: And now, you'll have to excuse me.

(Lawrence sits down and rises back into the bridge of his airship)

* Tigger: Hmm! Doesn't like hugs, huh? Hmm! How nasty can ya get? Well, I say we stand and fight! I can teach this here villain a thing or three. Why, I....
* Melody: (OS) The legend. (on screen) Could it be?
