However, capturing Farfetch'd is illegal in the area. The group soon realizes that one of the Farfetch'd, nicknamed Ducky, is injured and unable to fly with the rest of the group.
To make matters worse, Team Rocket interferes and captures Ducky, hoping to sell it for a high price.

In the end, they decide to release Ducky and watch as it flies away with its Farfetch'd friends.
