'''Articuno''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フリーザー''' ''Freezer'') appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Articuno, as depicted in an ancient legend, is the titan of ice. [[Lawrence III]] was trying to capture the three [[Legendary birds]] to bring out {{OBP|Lugia|M02}}. Articuno was the only bird he didn't capture, but after [[#Moltres|Moltres]] and [[#Zapdos|Zapdos]] burst out of captivity with the help of {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, the three Legendary birds started a huge fight.

After that, Articuno kept fighting with the other birds but it returned to its island after Ash and Lugia silenced their fighting.

'''Zapdos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンダー''' ''Thunder'') appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Zapdos, as depicted in an ancient legend, is the titan of lightning. [[Lawrence III]] was trying to capture the three [[Legendary birds]] in order to lure out {{OBP|Lugia|M02}}. After [[#Moltres|Moltres]] was captured, Zapdos claimed its island as its own territory (which implies that the weather disruptions, while started by Lawrence III, were mainly caused by the territorial disputes between the [[Legendary birds]]). This was explained through the [[Talking Pokémon|conversation]] that Pikachu and Zapdos have via electricity, which was then translated through Meowth. Lawrence captured Zapdos along with {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{Tracey}}, {{OBP|Melody|M02}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Zapdos was freed by Moltres and the two birds burst out of the palace.

Lugia, with the help of Ash, silenced the battle between the birds and Zapdos returned to its island.

'''Moltres''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ファイヤー''' ''Fire'') appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Moltres, as depicted in an ancient legend, is the titan of fire. [[Lawrence III]] revealed that he was trying to capture the three [[Legendary birds]] to bring out {{OBP|Lugia|M02}}. Lawrence set out to get Moltres first. He bombed its island with ice bombs until Moltres got furious and flew away from its island to attack Lawrence. However, he captured Moltres and brought it aboard his flying ship.

After that, Moltres kept fighting with the other birds but it returned to its island after Ash and Lugia silenced their fighting.

As they arrived on the island, it was starting to become freezing. Articuno appeared from behind Red. It easily froze {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} and Clefairy used a blender to thaw himself but sliced him into millions of pieces. The sight of Clefairy caused Articuno to fall down and left out the first orb. On the other side of the island, it was full of volcanoes and Moltres was summoned from one of them. Moltres's firepower was very strong. However, Clefairy rode on Moltres and sucked away its strength which made Clefairy completely stuffed. With Articuno and Moltres beaten, the sky became dark and a loud clap of lightning came down which almost hit Red. The last member of the Legendary birds, Zapdos, showed itself. Zapdos attacked the group and {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}} protected them with his own electricity. Clefairy connected Zapdos to a power generator box and knocked out Zapdos, obtaining the last orb to summon Lugia.
