As a pair of {{p|Wingull}} circle overhead, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} are alone on the beach of a deserted island in the middle of the ocean, clearly worried. They call out to their Trainers, but no one responds. They look at each other, wondering what to do. | As a pair of {{p|Wingull}} circle overhead, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} are alone on the beach of a deserted island in the middle of the ocean, clearly worried.

Ash and Brock are taking in the fresh ocean air near the bow, and they agree to enjoy it while it lasts. Dawn then comes around the corner and asks them if they have seen Piplup. They haven't, and it occurs to Ash that he hasn't seen Pikachu either. | ||
In an operations section of the ship, Piplup is exploring, and Pikachu follows, trying to convince him to leave and keep out of trouble. When Piplup hops on an exposed, moving gear system and uses it as a treadmill, Pikachu shoulder-tackles him off to the other side. Piplup isn't too pleased with this, but the older Pokémon rebukes Piplup, pointing out the danger he had put himself in. Just then, a [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] {{TRT}} approaches and [[Jessie]] picks up Piplup, proclaiming that she has found her long-lost Piplup. While both protest, {{MTR}} asks Pikachu to play along, and when Jessie walks off with Piplup, he still protests. [[James]] pretends to think that Pikachu wants to come along with them and picks him up too. | In an operations section of the ship, Piplup is exploring, and Pikachu follows, trying to convince him to leave and keep out of trouble.

Ash, Dawn, and Brock walk to the stern looking for the Pokémon. Ash wonders where they are, and Dawn states that this always happens: she turns her back on Piplup for only a moment and he disappears.

Ash wonders where they are, and Dawn states that this always happens: she turns her back on Piplup for only a moment and he disappears. Brock suggests that since he is a curious Pokémon, he's probably exploring the ship. They reach the stern and catch Team Rocket entering their [[Team Rocket's mechas|Magikarp Submarine]], which is standing on suction cup feet on the deck, with the missing Pokémon in a glass capsule clamped onto the back. They taunt the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, shut the hatch, and leap the sub into the ocean. Ash sends out {{AP|Buizel}}, and before his friends can stop him, he leaps from the railing into the water, uses Buizel's collar as a hand hold, and has Buizel zoom after the sub. | ||
When Team Rocket sees Ash and Buizel gaining on them, they become determined to outrun them. However, the Magikarp sub is suddenly and violently pulled into a whirlpool. Buizel stops short of the current and can go no further. As Team Rocket tries to stay in control of the cub, the violent shaking causes the clamp of Pikachu and Piplup's capsule to open. The capsule is then thrown into the current and smashed open against the rocky seafloor. Pikachu and Piplup are quickly swept away in the current. When Ash cries out in alarm, he loses his air, forcing Buizel to rush him to the surface. Team Rocket is also swept away in another direction. Beyond two large whirlpools, Ash and Buizel break the surface, when a siren catches their attention. A police boat piloted by an [[Officer Jenny]] comes up beside them, and Jenny asks if he is Ash; Brock and Dawn sent out an SOS on his behalf. She pulls them aboard and meets up with the ship to pick up Brock and Dawn. The captain agrees that his ship will continue on to Chocovine Town, and once the Trainers have rescued their Pokémon, Jenny will meet up with the ship to escort the Trainers back to him. | When Team Rocket sees Ash and Buizel gaining on them, they become determined to outrun them.
