Big Race, Reserves and The Safari

Start from the beginning
                                    

Then they head off. The next day, they arrive in the Safari Zone, well, the reserved part of it. The area they're in has pokemon that are off limits to capture since it's like a repopulation area for the more rare pokemon.

The gang runs into a couple that lost their son, Tommy five years ago from being dropped from a helicopter from their new, but very stupidly irresponsible nanny, who was fired immediately after.

They learned that Tommy is now known as Tomo, a sort of trainer for the Kangaskhan in the reserve.
They agree to help find Tommy, but were found carrying them on a large bed of wood, as if they were royalty. "Sorry, but Papa hasn't been in the best of shape." The woman said while Ash thinks And what's your excuse?

"You just had to say we'd help Ash." Misty complained. " Well, "We'll help you find your son." DOESN'T translate to "Let us carry you like we're Egyptian slaves, you child losing people with bad taste in nannies.", does it?" Ash retorts.

The mother felt guilty and got off, as did the father. "Well, I might as well try to exercise."
The gang sighs in relief. Ash sees an injured shiny Kangaskhan mother and an injured shiny baby Kangaskhan and rushes to them with some Max Potions.

He sees the mother has a white heart shape birth mark on her forehead and she recognizes her.
It was the baby Kangaskhan that with Pichu so long ago. He forgot the baby was adopted by her mother, hence why she is shiny.

"Oh Kangaskhan, do you remember me?"He asks, the Kangaskhan almost immediately recognized Ash and gives him a big hug after Ash heals them with the Max Potion. Tomo sees the whole thing while hiding and decides to trust Ash.

Tomo approaches Ash and says "You know Kangaskhan?"
Ash was shocked to see Tomo, but nods. He uses his psychic powers to help Tomo to remember his birth parents, which worked, but he is torn who to stay with? His birth parents or the Kangaskhan. Ash asks Tomo/Tommy's parents about staying with the Kangaskhan with Tommy. After all, family is supposed about love, more than blood.

The three agrees with this and the Kangaskhan that Ash helped wishes to go with him, to who Tommy and Ash agree too. The gang reaches the Safari Zone and Ash catches 30 Tauros, one for himself and the others for the Professor, to who the Tauros agrees. He also catches a rare Onix near the caves, and a Shellder near the water. He trains some of his pokemon, especially his baby Ponyta and he scans his new pokemon and Ponyta, who he forgot to do.
