Legendary birds (Adventures): Difference between revisions

Articuno first appeared in ''[[PS025|You Know...Articuno!]]'', where [[Team Rocket]] was trying to capture it on the [[Seafoam Islands]]. Sensing Team Rocket, Articuno covers itself in a shield of ice, immobilizing itself. {{adv|Red}} and [[Harry]] battle each other, each trying to capture the Freeze Pokémon. Red quickly starts to lose the fight as his [[Gyara]] was forced to relive some painful memories of his experimentation at the hands of Team Rocket, causing him to loss control. Seizing the moment, Harry has his {{p|Muk}} attack Gyara, trying to finish the fight before Articuno breaks itself out of the ice. Articuno frees itself from the ice and and begins to flee from Team Rocket, firing off attacks to keep them at bay. Seeing Red struggling against Muk, Articuno fires off a powerful Blizzard, ignoring all of Red's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and freezing Muk in a block of ice. Defending Red though caused Articuno to use up an extreme amount of energy, allowing it to be captured by Team Rocket. It was revealed in ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'' to have been given to [[Koga]].

Articuno was later used by Koga in ''[[PS031|The Art of Articuno]]'', in his fight against Red and {{adv|Blue}}. Articuno starts the fight with a powerful Blizzard against Blue, followed up by an Ice Beam. Koga then reveals that Articuno is under his complete control thanks to his {{Badge|Soul}}. Articuno continues its assault, freezing the majority of the room along with Red and Blue. Thinking the battle is done Koga lets his guard down, and is surprised to see that Red and Blue are already unfrozen thanks to [[Blue's Charizard]] heating up the room from the outside. Koga is then defeated by a combination attack from [[Blue's Porygon]] and [[Pika]].

Zapdos first appeared in ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'', where it was revealed to have been captured by [[Lt. Surge]] in the [[Kanto Power Plant|Power Plant]]. Zapdos appeared again in ''[[PS029|Go for the Golbat]]'', where it was used in Lt. Surge's fight against {{adv|Red}}. Zapdos was used to charge Lt. Surge's energy supply, which Lt. Surge was immune to thanks to his electric proof under suit. Using its electric energy, Zapdos was used to give the rest of Lt. Surge's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} an infinite amount of energy to attack with. After wearing down Red's [[Pika]], Zapdos was used against [[Saur]], attacking with a powerful Thunder Shock, causing major damage. After evading multiple {{m|Razor Leaf}}s, Lt. Surge had Zapdos charge itself up to its max energy, planning to attack the entire battlefield with a devastating Thunder. Right before the move was executed, Red had Saur uses the remaining leafs to cut Lt. Surges under suit, causing the Thunder attack to damage Lt. Surge instead of Red, ending the battle.
