'''Articuno''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フリーザー''' ''Freezer'') appeared in the second feature length Pokémon movie, ''[[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|movie 2}}. Articuno was the only bird he didn't capture, but after [[#Moltres|Moltres]] and [[#Zapdos|Zapdos]] burst out of captivity the three legendary birds started a huge fight.

'''Zapdos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンダー''' ''Thunder'') appeared in the second feature length Pokémon movie, ''[[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|movie 2}}. 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]]). Lawrence captured Zapdos along with {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{Tracey}}, {{mov|Melody}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Zapdos was freed by Moltres and the two birds burst out of the palace.

In their rage, the three legendary birds began to {{pkmn|battle}}. When Lugia rose up from the sea, Zapdos worked with the other birds to return Lugia back into the sea. Later, Lugia rose again out of the water without any of the birds noticing.

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

Moltres, as depicted in an ancient legend, is the titan of fire. [[Lawrence III]] revealed that that he was trying to capture the three [[legendary birds]] to bring out {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}. 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.

[[#Zapdos|Zapdos]] later claimed Moltres' territory as its own since Moltres was gone. This new territory ownership was short-lived, as Lawrence captured Zapdos along with {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{Tracey}}, {{mov|Melody}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Ash tried to free Moltres and succeeded eventually. Moltres then freed Zapdos and the two birds burst out of the palace.

Moltres, along with Zapdos, started a fight between themselves as well as [[#Articuno|Articuno]], the other legendary bird. When Lugia came up from the sea, Moltres worked with the other birds to put Lugia back where it came from. Later, Lugia rose again and none of the birds seemed to notice at first.
