The story is set in Okoya Forest, a Pokémon paradise protected by strict rules that forbid outsiders from setting foot inside. The film centers on Coco, a boy who was raised by Pokémon and also considers himself as one, treating the Mythical Pokémon Zarude as his father. Ash and Pikachu encounter Coco during an adventure. The film focuses on the theme of a "human raised by Pokémon," instead of the previous films' focus of the "bond between a human trainer and their Pokémon."

Where it came from
Released in 2020, Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle serves as the twenty-third installment in the long-running Pokémon film franchise. Produced by OLM, the film marks a departure from the traditional narrative structure of the series by focusing on a story centered on the bond between a human boy raised by a Pokémon and his father figure, the Mythical Pokémon Zarude. It is set within the continuity of the rebooted film timeline, established by previous entries like I Choose You! and The Power of Us, which allowed the studio to explore standalone stories outside of the main television series canon.
The film's visual identity was crafted to emphasize the lush, untamed environment of the Great Forest, drawing on a vibrant aesthetic that differentiates it from urban-focused Pokémon stories. The direction sought to evoke themes of identity and conservation, framing the relationship between the jungle-dwelling Zarude and the human Koko as a modern retelling of classic Tarzan-esque archetypes. Upon its release, it was generally well-received by audiences for its departure from standard tournament-based plots, with particular praise directed toward its emotional character arcs and the cinematic quality of the jungle animation.
