Story line... (some of the names are based on the Japanese version) I have gotten this plot from my "Revelation Lugia" comic book. So this plot is originally from me! ^_^

*A man named Jirarudan sits, talking to himself about the fire, ice and thunder gods, known as Moltres, Articuno and Zapdos. Once he captures them all, he will await the ultimate legendary Pokemon Lugia will appear. As Moltres form is seen, Jirarudan sends out the amunision and captures the wild Pokemon.

Blue skies, white clouds, flowing ocean. This is the south of the Orange Islands. On a boat, Tracey, Misty, Ash, ride the waves on a boat with sailor named Sencho. Tracey suggests the group lets out their Pokemon for some fresh air, as Misty does her Psyduck comes out. "You don't need to come out!" she angrily replies. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is below them, treading away on their Magikarp mini-boat, spying on Ash and his friends. Cloudy clouds suddenly awaken the sky and soon, the ocean is in dangerous uproaring waves.

In Pallet Town, Professor Oak decides to go for a bike ride and meets up with Ash's mother. Even in the summer, snow starts falling from the sky. "Why? It's the summer and it's snowing?"Professor Oak barks as a herd of Pidgey's glammer under a gleam of shimmering light.

Ash and his friends are suddenly on land where luck is good, because they are still alive. Suddenly Tracey blurts out they are having bad luck because many weird figures appear in front of them, wearing bird costumes. Suddenly Sencho calls out to one of the birds, which appear to be one of her friends, Mi, and Yo. Mi calls out to her younger sister, Furura. Somebody asks Ash who he is, and he replies with he is a Pokemon trainer. The herd of people go out in a celebratious rage. Furura comes up to Ash. "Hum....? You're a trainer?" and gives him a kiss on the cheek, which sends Misty and Tracey in shocked faces. Later then, Ash and his friends are invited to a celebration with a great feast. Furura is playing an instrument beautifully, which catchs Ash and Pikachu's eyes. Ash's mission is asked of to collect three crystal balls, which represent fire, lightning, and ice. Peace will begin once they are put together. They conquer heavy tides, rain, and all that's in between, but finally Ash gets the fire ball. Suddenly Zapdos shows itself, looking not so pleasant. Pikachu tries to talk to it, as Zapdos says this land belongs to it. Sooner, Zapdos is captured by Jirarudan as well.

And as well as Zapdos, Ash and his friends are captured as well, in something that looks like a bird cage. Moltres, is captured, and Ash and his Pokemon, as well as his friends Pokemon fight to help Moltres. As a big explosion, Moltres is released. "How? How did it escape?" Jirarudan stammers. Suddenly the lightning ball rolls in front of Ash's face. He gets it. Yadoking suddenly appears, telling Ash to put the crystal balls he collected into a little tower. "Huh? What? Only two?" Yadoking bellows. Noises strike as the three legendary birds are in a big fight. "Stop!!!!!" Ash yells to them. Suddenly everyone is caught in a warming water storm. The fourth legendary bird, Lugia shows itself, the god of waters. Lugia pitches in with the battle, but is injured right away. Furura takes out her musical instrument she was playing from before, and plays it, as Lugia is suddenly back to health. Lugia tells them to go to the top of a mountain, where the ice ball can be located. Ash gets on Lugia and they fly, as Lugia defeats Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno as they faint. Ash gets the ice ball in his hands, and places it in the last spot of the other crystal balls, as Furura plays her instrument. A great big explosion corrupts the earth as Ash is sent floating on top of an ocean. Their mission has accomplished.

Meanwhile Team Rocket is nearly dead from tiredness as Yadoking is there. Team Rocket has a good ending! (finally!)
