Nearby, the school of Lapras moves on as the teal-colored Lapras looks out. A pirate ship manned by Captain Crook approaches them and fires cannons loaded with {{i|Poké Ball}}s, which release several {{p|Tentacruel}} that surround the Lapras. They attack with {{m|Poison Sting}}, but the lead Lapras uses Water Gun to block the attack. The pirates deploy more Tentacruel to cut them off as Ash's group finds the Lapras under attack. Misty realizes the pirates are merely using the Tentacruel to bully them. Tracey and his {{TP|Tracey|Marill}} head back to Tarroco Island to get Officer Jenny while Ash and Misty race in to intercept.

Team Rocket follows in their {{p|Magikarp}} submarine as the Tentacruel surround the school. The captain orders all of them to attack, but [[Ash's Pikachu]] stops them with {{m|Thunder Shock}}. However, because water conducts electricity, the Lapras group, Ash, and Misty are also injured. The Tentacruel break off to attack Ash as the pirates confront them, firing cannonballs at Ash's Lapras. It dodges quickly as Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}} to join [[Misty's Poliwag]], {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}}, and {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}. Misty leads the Pokémon to fire Water Gun at the ship, destroying the cannons and masts, as well as putting holes into the ship. Crook barks at them as the {{t|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} fire at once, knocking him back. The pirates run out of cannonballs, so the captain fires [[Ghali]] at them, but Poliwag stops him with Water Gun.

Ash taunts the Tentacruel, but it fails to distract them. Ash's Lapras fires Water Gun at the leader, making it angry and prompting the Tentacruel to continue chasing Ash's Lapras, allowing the school to flee. The Tentacruel begin to catch up with Ash's Lapras, unintentionally crashing into Team Rocket's submarine and sending them blasting off in the process. As the Tentacruel surround Ash and Lapras, Misty takes control of the ship, tying up the pirates and ordering Crook to call off the Tentacruel, but he refuses, causing Poliwag to angrily use Water Gun right in his face. Ash's Lapras fires Water Gun at a Tentacruel as the captain orders {{m|Supersonic}} attacks. All of the Tentacruel fire, crippling Ash, Pikachu, and Lapras with headaches. The lead Tentacruel rushes forward to attack, but the school of Lapras comes to Ash's aid, {{status|Freeze|freezing}} the Tentacruel with {{m|Ice Beam}}, sending them plummeting underwater. The school approaches and Ash's Lapras meets with the teal one, revealed to be its mother.

Officer Jenny arrives in a patrol boat, taking the pirates and Team Rocket into custody. Misty allows the Tentacruel to go, and they happily swim off into the ocean. Meanwhile, Ash and Lapras share one last moment before it rejoins its school. Lapras dives underwater and comes under Ash, allowing him to get back onto the ship before rejoining the school. As they head off into the sunset, the gang wave it goodbye and thank it for helping them, to which Lapras responds with one final jump into the air.
