Just then, a girl named [[Krystal]] meets up with Ash and his friends. {{an|Brock}}, of course, falls in love with her at first sight. However, Ash goes on telling her that Pikachu is badly hurt and that there isn't a [[Pokémon Center]] for miles around. She offers to help, but asks them to keep a very big secret for her in return, leading them up a large hill. As they walk, the gang notices numerous {{type|Electric}} Pokémon climbing up the hill - Krystal tells them that they're all going there for a special reason. When they get to the top of the hill, they find a big lake, which Krystal claims has magical healing powers; the Electric-types come here to rest and recharge. She then orders Ash to put Pikachu into the water, and the Mouse Pokémon is soon good as new.

After Pikachu is healed, Krystal takes Ash and his friends out to the middle of the lake in a speedboat to show them the secret to the lake's power. When they look down from the bottom of the boat, they see what looks like an underwater temple with a crystal at the bottom. Krystal tells them how the Electric Pokémon have been coming to the lake for years, and how they are healed by the lake's power. Jessie and James are eavesdropping in on the conversation and plot to steal the crystal.
After Pikachu is healed, Krystal takes Ash and his friends out to the middle of the lake in a speedboat to show them the secret to the lake's power. When they look down from the bottom of the boat, they see what looks like an underwater temple with a crystal at the bottom. Krystal tells them how the Electric Pokémon have been coming to the lake for years, and how they are healed by the lake's power. She tells them a legend of how the temple supposedly sank underwater after torrential rains, unaware that Jessie, James, and Meowth are eavesdropping on the conversation...


As Ash and his friends discuss how the lake needs to be kept secret and how bad it would be if the wrong people got a hold of the crystal, Team Rocket goes underwater in a giant mechanical {{p|Tentacruel}}. They retrieve the crystal with little difficulty, but its light fades out, alerting Ash and his friends that something's up. The Team Rocket trio reveal themselves, reciting their motto before floating away in their balloon. As our heroes fume over this occurrence, the Electric Pokémon start to follow Team Rocket in attempt to get the crystal back. Ash orders Pikachu to {{m|Thunderbolt}} them, and the other Electric Pokémon join in the attack. However, Team Rocket sucks in their energy with the repaired PikaPower Mach III. They then make the machine forcibly draw energy from the Electric Pokémon, but black clouds appear in the sky, followed by a mighty screech and a huge bolt of lightning that breaks the circuit between the Electric Pokémon and the machine.

As our heroes fume over this occurrence, the Electric Pokémon start to follow Team Rocket in attempt to get the crystal back. Ash orders Pikachu to {{m|Thunderbolt}} them, and the other Electric Pokémon join in the attack. However, Team Rocket sucks in their energy with the new and improved ''PikaPower Mach III''. Gloating that their new machine is better than ever, the villains begin forcibly drawing energy from the Electric Pokémon, but black clouds appear in the sky, followed by a mighty screech and a huge bolt of lightning that breaks the circuit between the Electric Pokémon and the machine.  


As everyone wonders what this means, the sky darkens and the clouds part to reveal the [[legendary birds|legendary bird]] {{p|Zapdos}}! Zapdos is extremely angry, flying towards Team Rocket to zap their PikaPower Mach III. However, even Zapdos loses energy and the heroes start to wonder why it doesn't seem to have much power in the first place. Team Rocket gloats, but Zapdos unleashes its full power and overloads the PikaPower Mach III, sending Team Rocket blasting off again. But then Zapdos falls out of the sky to the ground. Still angry and flailing about, it finally faints from weakness - clearly, it is in bad shape.

Krystal tells the group that this is the ''real'' secret - Zapdos itself often visits the lake to recharge itself. Needing the crystal to heal Zapdos, our heroes set off to find Team Rocket and the crystal. Pikachu senses the crystal is nearby, so they follow it to where Team Rocket had crashed. In an attempt to keep the crystal for themselves, Team Rocket sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}} - although James again has to deal with the latter attempting to eat his head. Jessie orders Arbok to use {{m|Poison Sting}}, but Ash's Pikachu dodges and uses {{m|Quick Attack}}. With Arbok thrown into Jessie by the force of the blow, James orders Victreebel to use {{m|Razor Leaf}} - however, Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} again, hitting Victreebel into its trainer.
