<i>In a scuffle with Team Rocket, Ash and friends are thrown from the ship bearing them to the Whirl Islands. As powerful whirlpools draw them toward impending doom, a mysterious form under the sea shifts the powerful undertow, drawing them to safety. Shortly thereafter, a Corsola comes skipping over the sea's surface and guides the children back to a ship wherein awaits their old friend, Professor Elm. They ride the ship to a bustling harbor in the first of the Whirl Islands. There they learn of an upcoming competition in which Water Pokémon trainers will vie for the title of Whirl Island champion.</i>

[[Nurse Joy]] hands them a guide book and talks about the Whirl Cup for a while. Then Elm's Corsola jumps out and heads off. Misty asks what the Pokémon was doing and Elm replies saying that Corsola loves pools. Misty goes over towards the pool, admiring and observing the Corsola. Elm then shows the map of how the Whirl Cup league works. The Whirl Islands map is similar the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]. The Whirl Islands consist of five islands. The first island is near to the mainland, and is easily accessible by boat. Professor Elm offers to take Ash and the gang to the first island on his boat.

On the boat, Elm notices a [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|balloon]] heading towards them. It's Team Rocket's balloon! They balloon drifts towards the Pokémon Center and they release a net and swipe all the Pokémon in the pool! Ash tells Pikachu to go after them but Misty stops him. Instead, Misty releases {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} to battle Team Rocket. Jessie calls out Arbok, which swims towards Staryu. Staryu starts off with a {{m|Swift}} attack, and this hits Arbok, which counters with its own Poison Sting attack. The Arbok's attack is also successful, and it poisons Staryu. Misty recalls Staryu, but before she can release another Pokémon from her team, {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} comes out! Psyduck bravely jumps into battle, but has trouble swimming and Misty recalls it. Ash finally gets a chance to fight and Pikachu attempts a Thunderbolt, but James gets out a net launcher and fires it, snagging Pikachu! With Misty and Ash both defeated, Corsola jumps into the water, ready for battle. Elm tells her to do a {{m|Tackle}} attack, however, James releases Weezing and Weezing does a {{m|Sludge}} attack. Corsola manages to dodge all the Sludge attacks and then eventually Tackles Arbok high up in the air, near the balloon. Elm then tells her to execute {{m|Spike Cannon}}. Corsola jumps up out of the water and then fires numerous spikes towards the balloon, cutting up the nets and the balloon, sending Team Rocket blasting off and freeing the other Pokémon.

All's well that end's well, and Misty is still as crazy about Water types as ever. She seems to want to capture a Corsola badly. The gang soon heads off to the first city of the Whirl Islands to start off the Whirl Cup!
