When Coco was small he became lost in a terrible storm that separated him from his family. He grew up alone in the Arikok National Park. He enjoyed the warm weather and the scenery around him but what he wished for most was for family and friends. One day he thought to himself, "Maybe I should explore other regions of my island to try to make some friends," and this is how his adventure began.Coco tries over and over again to make new friends but the animals can't see past their differences and turn him away. Undetermined, Coco eventually meets a disfigured and bullied pigeon and they become the best of friends. When all the animals witness how much fun Coco and Patches are having they realize they made a mistake. Now they have to come to Coco to ask him if he will be their friend.
