Later, she fell from the Team Rocket airship after it was taken over by Carr, but she survived. She later tried to catch by disabling it with an energy beam launched from her Poké Ball (later on revealed to be being unleashed), but was foiled when , , , , and (along with ) used their bodies to block the beam from Deoxys, who escaped. However, to their surprise, the five Pokédex holders' bodies were turned to stone as a result. Having one of Lorelei's ice cuffs pinned and rapidly expanding from her left leg before she attempted the capture, she fled after remarking that this new gain is nothing short of capturing Deoxys as she had intended.

Later, after the climax of the battle against the evil Guile Hideout, Archie reveals that Sird temporarily saved his and Maxie's lives just as they were about to be killed while fleeing in an air-car, at the end of the . The means that she did this are unknown. She offered him and Maxie the armor and sword that would later transform Archie into Guile Hideout, claimed they would give eternal life, but said that there was only one armor so they would have to fight to the death to see who would gain the armor, with Archie winning and killing Maxie in the end. Strangely enough, after she gave the armor to Archie, she quoted , which similarly refers to a man with a sword.

To fulfill her agendas, she selected a and released him from the Team Galactic hive mind, implanting her will on him instead to carry out plans autonomously.

Following the petrification incident, she explains that Mewtwo chased her all the way back to Sinnoh out of revenge for the Trainers she petrified, and she barely managed to escape its pursuit.
