Ash and company get on board the boat and Ash has a Pokémon battle with a rich, older man who later convinces Ash to trade his Butterfree for a Ratticate. Meanwhile, James encounters a salesman selling a Pokémon known as Magikarp. The salesman tells James that Magikarp can make him rich by laying a thousand eggs that hatch into more Magikarp laying another thousand eggs each. Lured by the salesman's words, James eagerly spends all of his and Jessie's salary advances to buy Magikarp, unaware that the salesman had sold him a worthless Pokémon.
As the ship sails through dark clouds, the Boss gives the signal. Doors are shut, and various crew members reveal themselves to be Team Rocket grunts. Led by the trio, they attempt to steal all the Pokémon on board, but Ash convinces the passengers to fight back. During the battle, Ash begins to regret his decision to trade Butterfree after realizing that Ratticate wasn't the same. The Rocket grunts are thwarted and blasted off save for the trio, and in the aftermath, Ash decides to trade back Ratticate for his Butterfree. Unfortunately the ship has sailed into a storm during the fight, and the rough waves knock Ash, Misty, Brock, Pikachu, and Team Rocket out cold. When the ship sinks, Ash and his friends are still on board.
