Pokémon: The Journey of Ordinary People

Passed through the outer forest and entered the interior.

Along the way, Zhang Yu saw several kinds of Pokémon, including green pupa-shaped Pokémon, monkeys swinging on trees, and some Pokémon that Zhang Yu couldn't name.

After climbing over a small mound, a large open space appeared in front of us.

There are many Pokémon playing in this open space. They are curious when they see a stranger.

Pikachu and the others brought Zhang Yu to an open space where a coconut tree about four meters high was standing.

"Can coconut trees grow in places like this?" Zhang Yu was a little confused.

"Pika Pika" Pikachu called twice to the coconut tree.

"Hey wash..."

A somewhat old voice came from the tree.

Zhang Yu saw that the tree in front of him had turned around. There were three coconuts with eyes and mouths growing on the tall treetops, but they looked quite old and wrinkled.

The coconut tree turned around and looked down at Zhang Yu.

"What?"

"Pika pika!"

The three little ones, along with Walking Grass, called out to the coconut tree, talking and gesturing for a while.

"Hello, human. I am the oldest coconut tree in this forest."

This sentence suddenly appeared in Zhang Yu's mind, and he looked at the tree in front of him with some surprise.

"Don't be afraid, I am using my super powers to talk to you. I have also traveled with trainers before."

Zhang Yu suddenly realized something. He remembered that there was a cat in the cartoon that could speak human language. So he was not so surprised that the coconut tree could talk.

"But, does the Pokémon world also speak Chinese? I remember it was a Japanese cartoon." This thought flashed through Zhang Yu's mind, but fortunately it was in Chinese, otherwise it would be embarrassing if he couldn't understand it.

"Hello, Mr. Coconut Tree, I was originally planning to take a plane to another place, but unfortunately I encountered a thundercloud halfway and now I am stranded here. Do you know how to get to where humans live?"

"I've been here for several days and haven't found any human traces." Zhang Yu asked the coconut tree in his mind.

"Well...humans rarely come to this island, but I know a place where I can see humans." The coconut tree said slowly.

"I can tell you where it is, but I hope you can do me a small favor."

Zhang Yu thought about it and decided that returning to human society was more important. As long as the work was not too difficult, it would not be a big problem.

"Okay, I will definitely help you as long as it is within my ability." Zhang Yu replied.

Upon hearing this, the coconut tree shook its crown, and a red and white ball fell at Zhang Yu's feet.

"What is this?" Zhang Yu picked up the ball. There was a line of small words engraved crookedly on it: A Zheng and his coconut tree.

"A Zheng...?"

"It's my trainer. Ten years ago, we took a boat to this island for special training. The weather was fine that day, but suddenly a strong wind blew."

----

"Coconut Tree, today we have to work hard to become the chief trainer of the Orange League!" A young man wearing a blue hat shouted to his Pokémon with full energy.

"Hey wash!"

"Okay! You are very motivated. Let's do some speed training first. Come and chase me!" After saying that, Ah Zheng started running.

On the beach, a man and an elf were chasing each other.

"A Zheng, don't run too far. We are going back today." An uncle wearing a straw hat shouted to the boy.

"Okay Uncle Yong, I'll be there right away!"

After a while, Ah Zheng ran to a big rock by the sea and sat down. A red and white ball appeared in his hand, and the coconut tree also sat next to him.

"Coconut Tree, this is your Poké Ball. I hope our friendship can continue forever."

Ah Zheng took out a sharp little stone and carved the words "Ah Zheng and His Coconut Tree" crookedly on the Poké Ball.

"Naxi~" The coconut trees rubbed A Zheng affectionately with their three heads.

"Haha, okay, I like you too."

"Let's pack up, Uncle Yong will be back soon. Let's get ready to board the boat." Zheng used the Poké Ball to take the coconut tree back.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew over. Just as Ah Zheng stood up from the rock, he was blown off balance and fell on the beach, with the Poké Ball in his hand rolling out.

"Ah Zheng, be careful!"

Ayong shouted and pulled Azheng over.

A wave hit A Zheng's back.

"Coconut Tree!" The Poké Ball was swept into the sea by the waves.

The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and thunder rumbled.

The sea began to surge, and waves hit the beach.

"Uncle Ayong, I want to save the coconut tree!" A Zheng struggled, trying to break free from Ayong's hand.

"Calm down, Zheng! This storm is unusual! We are not prepared. We must go back quickly and take a boat to the other side of the island. The other side is not as stormy!"

"The coconut tree will be fine. The waves will push it to the island. We still have time to come back when the sea calms down!" Ayong dragged Azheng onto the boat, started the engine and headed towards Markote Island in the northwest.

"Coconut tree! Coconut tree! Wuuuuu..." Ah Zheng cried towards the direction where the coconut tree was drifting away.

----

"When I came out of the Poké Ball, I couldn't see Zheng anymore. I looked for him for a long time and even thought he had abandoned me. But later, I learned from the Pokémon here that there was a tornado and a tsunami that day. Then I realized that I must have been separated from Zheng."

The coconut tree tells its own story.

"So, I hope you can take this Poké Ball with you when you leave here. If you see Zheng, tell him that I'm waiting for him here."

Zhang Yu looked at the Poké Ball in his hand and asked, "Why don't you come with me? Can't the Poké Ball retrieve the Pokémon?"

"This Poké Ball is broken. It might have hit a rock. I can't get back in after I got out of it."

"Besides, after coming to this island, I found that my body grew very fast. Normal coconut trees are about 2 meters tall, but I grew to 4 meters. My body is too big, and it is not very convenient to move around." The coconut tree explained

"Indeed, it's quite inconvenient to stay next to such a big tree." Zhang Yu thought to himself.

"Okay, I promise you, when I return to human society, I will help you find A Zheng." Zhang Yu put the Poké Ball back into the bag.

"So can you tell me how to leave this island?"

"Of course, keep walking northwest for about a day and you will see a small pier on the seashore.

When the fruits on this island are ripe, people will come here by boat to pick the fruits. According to the calculation, people should come in two days. "The coconut tree replied

"Okay! Thank you Coconut Tree, I won't forget my promise." Zhang Yu was very happy and finally saw hope.

I hadn’t eaten well or slept well in the past few days on the island, and I was very dirty. Now I was finally saved.

"Duo?"

Just now when Zhang Yu was chatting with the Coconut Tree, Zou Zou Cao and the three little ones were so bored that they ran off to play somewhere.

Now that he has just returned, Zou Lucao feels a little confused when he sees the happy Zhang Yu.

"Great! Walking Grass, I finally know how to leave the island!" Zhang Yu picked up Walking Grass and turned around.

"Duo~(??? ? ???)"

After hearing what Zhang Yu said, Zou Zou Cao didn't look very happy.

"This child really doesn't want to leave you." The coconut tree said to Zhang Yu

Zhang Yu stopped smiling when he heard that, and felt a little embarrassed. He didn't have a Poké Ball, and he didn't know if taking the Pokémon away directly would violate the laws of this world.

In the past few days, he and Walking Grass have established a friendship. They eat together, sleep together, and avoid the attacks of the Spearow together.

"Do~na-so!"

"Zouzocao said he wants to travel with you." Coconut Tree translated

"Huh? Really, Zou Xingcao? I actually don't know much about how to travel, but... I believe that a lot of interesting things will happen in the future, and I think we can experience them together!" Zhang Yu looked into Zou Xingcao's eyes and said seriously.

"Duo!"

Zou Xingcao also looked at Zhang Yu with the same determination.

"This child also drifted here from the sea. He was lying on a piece of driftwood on the sea. I used my superpowers to save him." Coconut Tree said

"So that's how it is? So our experiences are somewhat similar." Zhang Yu was a little surprised.

"Then...please give me more guidance in the future, walking grass!"

The walking grass put the leaves on its head together with Zhang Yu's hand.

"I never expected that I would have a companion in another world. It feels quite wonderful."

----

The light and shadows in the woods softened.

The sun gradually sets, and the number of Pokémon playing in the open space gradually decreases.

The three little ones came to Zou Zou Cao and chatted with each other for a while.

He also knew that Zouzocao was going to travel, and seemed a little reluctant to let her go.

"I still have to thank you three, otherwise I don't know how to leave this island." Zhang Yu said as he took out the fruits from his backpack and shared them with the three elves.

"Pikapi", "Lada", "Pipi"

The three little ones waved their hands, saying they were welcome. They were also very happy to be able to help Zhang Yu.

It was already getting late. Zhang Yu planned to rest for the night and set off again tomorrow.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Yu fell asleep next to the coconut tree with grass in his arms.

The moonlight in the sky illuminates them. What will the future journey be like?
