Name: Pokemon: When the Wind Rises
Author: Keke Kelea

Synopsis

On his tenth birthday, orphan Feng Jianyao made a decision: he would find a Pokemon, become a Trainer, and build a home of his own.

No one thought he could succeed.

He had nothing: no connections, no resources, and no one to pave the way for him. The only thing he had to his name was a Pidgey he’d chosen after watching it for a month in the hills behind the orphanage. It had been driven out by its flock and could barely keep itself airborne.

Everyone thought he’d made the wrong choice.

But when that Pidgey trembled and took a step forward in the moonlight, pecking at the bread he’d set on the ground, Yao knew: the bird was right for him, and he was right for the bird.

The story that followed was simple: they lost countless times and won when it mattered. From Pewter City to Saffron City, from Kanto to the world stage, they went from having nothing to having it all. They met many people and said goodbye to even more. Some mocked them for reaching beyond their grasp, while others were moved by their bond.

And the Pidgey that once feared flying eventually soared through every sky where it had been mocked.

This isn’t a story about turning the tables. It’s a story about belonging: when you can’t find your place in the world, build one with your own hands.

Even if all you have to start with is an injured Pidgey and a boy with nothing.
