Grapefruit Island

The gang had just arrived on another island. 
"I wonder what that island is?" Ash asked.
"This is one of the islands of Seven Grapefruit Island." Tracey explained. "There are seven mini islands here that grow grapefruit. So they're called the Seven Grapefruit Islands."
"Hey look at that." Tomo said. 
Tomo had seen a grapefruit tree, but when the others saw it they couldn't believe their eyes. The grapefruit were much bigger than normal grapefruit.
"Wow they look big." Misty said.
"They also look delicious." Ash added. "Do you think we're allowed to pick some?"
Before Ash's question could be answered, another voice was heard.
"Hold it right there!" The voice belonged to a green-haired woman. 
"Hands off the grapefruit thieves!" She shouted. 
The gang was shocked; they had only been on the island for a few minutes and they were already in trouble.
"What are you talking about?" Ash repeated. 
"We just got here." Tracey said.
"My name's Ruby." The woman introduced herself. "Sorry about my outburst just now."
"I run the Seven Grapefruit Islands." Ruby explained. "My assistants and I grow the grapefruit here."
"How do you manage to make them so big?" Misty asked.
"With a lot of care and attention." Ruby said. "And of course the wild Butterfree help us out with their pollen."
"So why did you call us thieves?" Tracey asked. 
"Well, someone has been stealing the grapefruits recently." Ruby explained. "The thief does it so quickly, my staff and I aren't able to stop him."
"Well, do you want our help." Ruby accepted their offer.
Ruby led the gang to the area where the grapefruit thief had already struck.
"What a mess!" Misty exclaimed.
Not only did the trees not have any grapefruit on them, but it looked like the top of the trees had been eaten off and broken branches, leaves and leftover grapefruit laid everywhere.
"Wow the thief really outdid himself." Tracey said.
Just then one of Ruby's assistants turned up.
"We've spotted the thief on radar." He said. 
Ruby and the gang went to find the thief.
When they got to the thief's location, it turned out to be a Snorlax.
"That's a Snorlax." Ash said, opening his Pokedex.
"Snorlax, the Sleeping Pokemon. Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As it's rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful."
Snorlax was picking branches off the trees and was gobbling up the grapefruit. 
"So this Pokemon is the one who stole the grapefruit." Ruby said.
Soon Snorlax had eaten every grapefruit on the first of the Seven Grapefruit Islands. 
"Well since the Seven Grapefruit Islands are separated, surely they will be safe." Misty said.
She would be proven wrong though as Snorlax headed to the ocean and swam to the second of the Seven Grapefruit Islands. 
"I've never seen a Snorlax swim before." Misty gasped. 
"That must have been how Snorlax arrived here in the first place." Tracey said.
"Come on." Ruby said. "We need to stop Snorlax."
They arrived to the second island just in time, as Snorlax hadn't shown up right away.
"Okay, so how do we stop Snorlax?" Misty asked.
"Prof. Oak warned me about Snorlax once." Ash said. "Even though they're strong Pokemon, eating and sleeping is the only thing they care about. They're also very stubborn. Attempting to convince Snorlax to stop won't work."
"Then what can we do big brother?" Tomo asked. 
"We'd have to battle it." Ash replied. "And I know the right Pokemon for the job."
Tomo and Misty smiled; they knew exactly Pokemon he was talking about.
When Snorlax reached the island it immediately headed to a grapefruit tree. 
"Hold it right there Snorlax!" Ash shouted. "You're not taking any more of those grapefruits."
Snorlax ignored him.
"Fine then you leave me with no other option. I choose you Kangaskhan!" Kangaskhan roared as soon as she came out of her Poke Ball.
"Wow." Tracey said. "It's rare to see a Kangaskhan."
Kangaskhan's roar gained Snorlax's attention. Snorlax stepped forward to fight; apparently it didn't like being interrupted when it was about to eat something.
"Use Work Up." Ash commanded. 
Kangaskhan glowed a reddish color and got ready to attack.
"Now use Mega Punch." Kangaskhan punched Snorlax's jaw very hard. Thanks to the move Work Up, Kangaskhan's attacks were powered up. Snorlax was hurt by that punch and began to get angry and serious. It jumped and showed it's left leg to Kangaskhan. 
"It's going to use Mega Kick." Tracey said.
"Counter it with your own Mega Kick." Ash said.
Kangaskhan jumped and kicked Snorlax. Snorlax started to feel serious pain.
"Okay, now use Focus Blast." Kangaskhan formed a light blue ball of energy in her hands and fired it at Snorlax, hitting it directly.
Snorlax began panting heavily; the Focus Blast really took a lot out of it. 
"Okay now's my chance." Ash said, taking out a empty Poke Ball. "Let's go Poke Ball."
The Poke Ball hit Snorlax and sucked it into the Poke Ball. The Poke Ball shook three times and then at last it was caught, then it transported itself to Prof. Oak. Ash cheered and thanked Kangaskhan. Kangaskhan picked Ash up and gave him a hug; she really liked Ash.
Ruby was grateful Snorlax had been dealt with.
"I can't thank you enough." She said. "Now we won't have to worry about the grapefruit trees anymore."
"Too bad Snorlax ate all the fruit on the first grapefruit island." Tracey said.
"No need to worry." Ruby said. "They'll regrow by next year."
She gave the gang a bag of candied grapefruit peels as a thank you gift.
"Well gang." Ash said. "It's high time we went on our way."
Misty, Tomo and Tracey agreed.
The gang said goodbye to Ruby and her staff then headed off for the next Orange Island adventure.
