-The Whirl Islands first appeared in ''[[GB18|Let's Survive This Sea Battle]]'', where {{GnB|Gold}} and {{GnB|Chris}} arrived there. In ''[[GB19|The Truth About The Mysterious Whirl Islands!!]]'', they encountered a {{pkmn2|talking}} {{p|Slowking}}, which demanded that they leave immediately. However, since Gold and Chris's wooden raft had been destroyed by [[Team Rocket]], they could not leave even if they wanted. Slowking revealed that it was in possession of a rubber {{wp|dinghy}}, which it agreed to hand over to them if they fulfilled a request for it. They agreed, and Slowking took them to a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{p|Blastoise}}, which had lived on the islands for a hundred years, but had grown violent recently. Slowking tasked them with defeating it, but even {{DL|Type|Type effectiveness|super effective}} or combination [[move]]s could not deal enough [[damage]]. Eventually, though, Gold managed to lure Blastoise into Slowking's home cave, where it fell into a pond full of {{p|Chinchou}}, whose combined {{m|Spark}} attacks were enough to defeat it. A gust of wind then blew Slowking's [[Silver Wing]] into Gold's hand and {{p|Lugia}} appeared, challenging Gold.

 In ''[[GB20|A Serious Crisis!! The Battle With The Lugia]]'', Gold and Chris tried to fight Lugia, but their attacks phased right through it. Even when Chris's {{p|Cyndaquil}}'s {{m|Flame Wheel}} seemed to have an effect on Lugia's wing, the damage was quickly healed off. Deciding on a tactical retreat, Gold and Chris escaped through an underwater tunnel in Slowking's pond, coming out from another pond on the other side of the islands. Chris, having noticed that Lugia's form was affected by getting into contact with fire and water, figured that Lugia was actually composed of gas, held together by {{t|Psychic}} powers. Impressed by their observational skills, Lugia trapped Gold on a small islet in the midst of a pool of lava and offered him one chance to either defeat it or surrender. Gold refused to give up, so Lugia shattered the islet, disappering as Gold had his Pokémon use {{m|Water Gun}} to solidify the lava and avoid falling into it. He and Chris tried to solidify more lava for him to get back to solid land, but the solidified lava started to crack under his feet. As Chris made a desperate jump to save him, they and their Pokémon were suddenly transported into an underground cave, where they met the real Lugia, who told them that the Lugia they had defeated had been just an illusion. Slowking told them that the real Lugia had to stay in this cave in order to support a stone pillar that was supporting the islands. Even though Lugia hadn't been fighting at full power due to being ill, it still admitted defeat and offered a prize to Gold and Chris. They wished for a ride to [[Cianwood City]], so they boarded an illusionary Lugia to travel there.
