Chapter Three:  "The Captive Partner!!"

Now that the gang has arrived at Faunsu, it is decided that they'll walk the rest of the way.  As the gang starts exploring, Jiraachi excitedly bounces around, declaring its love for the place.  Dianne explains that Jiraachi is able to absorb some of the energy from Faunsu, which in turn makes the pokemon very hyper and energetic.  Jiraachi and Masato begin to run around and play for the remainder of the night. 

Later, after Masato and Jiraachi have fallen asleep, Haruka makes a sixth fold in her Wish Maker.  She notices that her brother only has one day left with the pokemon and thinks of how difficult it will be for them to part ways. 

Meanwhile, Butler continues to head toward Faunsu on his Flying Laboratory.  Butler says that he will surely revive Groudon before Jiraachi returns to the Millennium Comet and will show the Magma-Dan how foolish they were for doubting his genius.

The seventh night has come, and our heroes are headed for the cave where Jiraachi lives.  When they arrive at the cave's entrance, they are surprised to see the Absol from before standing in front of the opening!  However, instead of attacking our heroes, Absol merely turns around and starts walking into the cave!  Jiraachi tells everyone that Absol is going to guide them through the cave and that they shouldn't worry about it attacking them.  As the gang walks through the cave, noticing the glowing rocks, they spot a Flygon who will also act as their guide through the cave.  They soon reach an area where the sky can be seen and notice all the stars twinkling in the sky.  Suddenly, a comet shoots through the air and Jiraachi starts to glow!  Jiraachi says that the comet is calling him and starts to float toward the sky!  Masato grabs onto his hand and starts to cry, saying that they must have a little time left.  Jiraachi says that he has to go, but Masato won't hear it.  The wish granting pokemon breaks out of Masato's grip and drifts away as the young boy calls out for his partner. 

Just then, Dianne notices that Jiraachi's True Eye is opening up.  Satoshi asks what that is, and she responds by saying that the True Eye is what is used to absorb the energy from the Millennium Comet. 

Suddenly, a round, spiky orb falls from the sky and releases a force field that traps everyone in a dome of energy!  Dianne recognizes the trap and looks up to find Butler standing on his Floating Laboratory!  Butler taunts Satoshi for a bit, thanking him and his friends for befriending Jiraachi enough to get it to open up its True Eye.  At that moment, a beam of energy shoots out of the bottom of Butler's Floating Laboratory and pulls Jiraachi out of the force field before it starts sucking away its energy!  Satoshi sends out his Subame to rescue Jiraachi, but the pokemon can't pass the barrier that Butler's put up.  Satoshi recalls his pokemon as Butler's lab starts to fly away, taking Jiraachi with it.  The magician starts to laugh and tells our heroes to enjoy the show from where they're standing.

On top of the laboratory, the fang of Groudon is encased in a glass cylinder on the southeast corner of the stage while Jiraachi is trapped in a device in the center.  Butler thinks of how he's waited for this day before telling Jiraachi that the energy that it's collected from the Millennium Comet is being sucked out of it.  Butler then directs Jiraachi's attention to a monitor, where a crosshair is seen zeroing in on Masato.  A gun emerges from a turret on the bottom of the lab, and Butler tells Jiraachi that if it doesn't open up its True Eye before the count of three, he'll kill Masato!  Jiraachi thinks of all the good times it's had with Masato and quickly opens its True Eye without hesitation.  A huge beam of energy is drawn from the comet and into Jiraachi as Butler happily looks on. 

Meanwhile, the Rocket-Dan, who had been floating around nearby in their Nyasu balloon, get sucked into the beam from the comet and are sent blasting off again.

At that moment, beams start emerging from the bottom of the flying laboratory and begin to burn an image of Groudon onto the ground below. 

Back on the ground, Masato tries his best to climb up the steep cave wall, saying that he has to save Jiraachi.  Masato climbs and climbs until he reaches the barrier, which shocks the young boy and sends him falling toward the earth!  Luckily, Masato is able to grab onto a section of the wall before he hits the ground.  Everyone tells Haruka's brother to hang on as they wonder what they can do to escape.  Suddenly, Absol fires a beam from the blade on its head and destroys the spiked ball that created the force field in the first place!  Everyone cheers, but they are forced to stop short when Masato loses his grip and falls toward the earth! However, the Flygon from before swoops in and saves Masato, much to everyone's relief!!

 Elsewhere, Butler comments on how the pokemon is close to being revived.  Suddenly, he looks into the distance and sees Masato, Satoshi, and Pikachu riding on a Flygon!  Butler responds by sending out his Bormander, who uses a flame breath attack.  Flygon dodges and responds with an attack of its own, which hits Bormander and sends it falling.  Butler then steps up and starts shooting an energy beam from his magic wand, but Pikachu is able to deflect it with its Thunderbolt attack!  While Butler is busy with the battle, Masato jumps onto the Flying Laboratory and sprints toward Jiraachi, remembering how he promised the pokemon that he would protect it.  Masato puts his hand on the lever to release Jiraachi from its trap, but Butler uses his wand to electrocute Masato!  The young boy endures the attack and pulls the lever down, screaming how he will protect Jiraachi!  The energy stops, and Masato is able to pick up Jiraachi again!  As the young boy hugs his partner, Butler laughs, saying that Masato was too late.  His machine had gathered enough energy, and so Groudon will now be resurrected!

Suddenly, the ground starts to shake, and Butler's Floating Laboratory begins to crash.  Satoshi tells Masato to hurry up and get on Flygon, and the two young boys and their pokemon fly to safety.

On the ground, Masato wonders if Jiraachi is all right.  The pokemon's True Eye is still open, and Masato begins to blame himself for being too weak to protect it in time.  The young boy starts to cry, and the tears hitting Jiraachi's face wake the pokemon up.  The pokemon's True Eye begins to shut, and Satoshi congratulates Masato on all he's done. 

Suddenly, a blinding light can be seen in the sky, and Groudon appears!  As everyone stares at the huge pokemon in horror, Butler begins to laugh, saying how he revived the legendary pokemon.  A light builds up within Groudon before it emits a huge dome that sweeps across Faunsu!  Absol starts running toward the pokemon to stop it, but its attack has no effect on the legendary pokemon.  Groudon then sprouts gelatinous tentacles from the spikes along its back and uses one of them to absorb Absol into its body!  As everyone looks on in terror, Dianne asks Butler what he's done.  Butler responds, with a stunned look on his face, by saying that this creature is different from the Groudon he was trying to resurrect. 

Everyone's trapped!Above, the Rocket-Dan are back in their hot air balloon.  Kojirou exclaims that the forest is being turned into a desert before the balloon is swallowed up by one of Groudon's tentacles.  The legendary pokemon continues to absorb pokemon as it sets its sights on all the pokemon in the forest, so Satoshi and his friends make a run for it.  Haruka trips and falls, and Masato can only look on helplessly as she is absorbed by one of Groudon's tentacles.  As Butler looks on in horror, he tries to talk himself into believing that this is all a dream, ignoring the tentacle headed right for him.  Dianne notices, however, and throws herself in the tentacle's path to save Butler.  The magician snaps out of his trance in time to see Dianne being absorbed into Groudon's body, much to his horror.  Satoshi and the others, who had paused for a moment to watch Butler and Dianne, resume their escape, but Takeshi is caught as well.  Satoshi wonders what to do, and suddenly his answer flies in front of him; Flygon!  As Satoshi and Masato climb on the dragon pokemon's back, Masato makes one more wish to Jiraachi:  "I want to save everyone!"
