Hi, minna. To be honest, rewriting Alola's story may be a little awkward for me. However, I'll explain this straight up. This is based on the original sun and moon games, not the remakes. However, that won't stop me from potentially using Pokemon that u can only catch in USUM (Such as Buneary)..

Sitting down on my computer, I gently move some magazines around and boot up my computer. Looking around, he could see a video chat thingie from the Alola region's professor. Letting a little air from my lungs in a sigh, I clicked on the file and waited for the thing to connect up. After all, Alola is on the other side of the planet. It can take some time to connect up. Eventually Kukui's face popped up on the screen, with a red and white poke ball in hand. "Morning, cousin," he said, cheerfully. I had no heart to correct him, since I knew Alola was in a different timezone so it was morning there whilst it was evening over here.

Waving, I just smiled at him simply whilst I held my Ditto cushion on my lap - Meowth's claw marks still visible all over the soft surface of the cushion. Lifting up my notebook, I gently wrote something before turning it around for him to see. On the paper was. "Afternoon, Kukui. What are you calling about anyway?" it was a simple question, even if my voice didn't say it out loud.

Smiling at me, he nodded his head to indicate that he was going to explain. Throwing his Rockruff out, I remembered seeing it before when he came over to Kanto for a while. "Well, you and your mother are coming to Alola soon. I thought I'd get your trainer card ready," this made me blink a little, did I hear that correctly. I was getting a trainer card? But mom had said before that she didn't want me going on a Pokemon journey due to my muteness. That was why, me as a 11 year, was still at home with no official Pokemon besides looking after the pet. It seemed like Kukui must have realised my confusion with just one look of my expression, as he gave a hearty chuckle and explained. "I talked to your mom and managed to convince her. So when you get here in Alola, you'll be able to become a Pokemon trainer like the other kids of your age."

Opening my mouth for a second, my voice wanted to say 'Really'. Yet I knew it was impossible. My vocal cords had been removed at birth due to a disease that had inflicted them, if they hadn't have been removed...well they would have killed me. Whilst I do hate my lack of a voice, I have other ways of communication. Namely my notepad and this special bond I share with only Pokemon, that Kukui had observed. That was likely the reason he was going to allow me to train with Pokemon. Lifting my pad up after writing, he heard him read out the same word that came into my head.

"Yes, really," he laughed, filling out my trainer card. If you wanna know, my name is Moon and 'm a 11 year old from the Kanto region. Since my mom fell in love with Kukui's Rockruff and the others, she wanted to move to the Alola region and frankly I don't blame her. Kanto's a little stuffy, not horrible...but it kinda gets boring here. I don't know anything about Alola, its culture or the native Pokemon. And since I was now allowed on my journey, what could be better. "Well, cousin. I must get going as my wife just returned home from work," I nearly mouthed out 'd'aww' at that fact, but I held my pose as he continued. "See ya when you arrive in Alola."

Nodding, I shut down the video chat and switched the computer off. Glancing at the magazine, it was from the alola region but I hadn't had time to read it in whole at the moment. Suddenly, my mom's voice caught my ears and I turned towards my bedroom door. "Moon, would you come help me out down here. These boxes are kinda heavy and Meowth keeps getting under my feet!"

And it wasn't long before we arrived in Alola, the warm sun was the first thing that hit me. Ahh, it felt so nice and relaxing. From what I heard, the Alola region consisted of 4 small islands with a heavy empathise of friendship and bonds. But what captivated me the most was all the Pokemon, every water type in the sea and the flying types in the air. It felt amazing and I wanted to chat with some of them, but I hadn't even formed a bond as I mentally prepared myself to earn my starter Pokemon. I remember researching the options a little while back, but I can't remember any of them. Am I scatterbrained?...

Sitting on my new bed, it was surprising comfortable. However, I won't let myself get used to it. Reason: It should be obvious, but I'll say anyway. It's cause I'm going on my journey so why do I need to get used to a bed that I'm not staying in? Suddenly, a loud hiss filled my ears and I turned to see mom's Meowth at the door. Smiling, I got up and petted him as I formed a connection. "What's wrong, did mom send you?" I asked mentally. Yes, I'm somewhat psychic if you wanna know. My mom isn't, so I can only assume the gene came from my estranged father. Its not too powerful, but it allows me to chat with my Pokemon. However, its range is a little weak and I can't communicate with a Pokemon too far away.

"Meowth!" would have been what everyone else heard, but I heard something completely different. "Yah, she send me as she wants to chat. Can ah go back to mah food now?" Sometimes, not always, I wonder about how Pokemon speak. Do they all have a strangely accent like Meowth, but it didn't bother me too much. I just wandered how my own Pokemon would be.

"Alright, thanks!" came my response as I stood up, my lips a little wobbly as I held back my tears of joy. I had been longing for this day for so long, having to see all the other kids leave for their journeys around the world. It was horrible, I'd tell you that. A year wait, but now I can finally go out and start my journey. First off though, would be seeing what mom wants. I watched for a few moments as Meowth left the room, he's cries of 'food' soon changing back into the former cries of a Pokemon. Seems like he had left my range, and it was exhausting me to keep the connection anyway.

Stepping out of my bedroom, I glanced to see my mom walking in off the balcony. My blue eyes focused on her as I tilted my head gently, asking what she wanted me for in my own little way. Chuckling, mom gave a little smile and ruffled my black hair gently. "Well, Moon. It's our first day in the Alola region and I wanted to make sure you were comfortable here," I gave a low, smiled nod in reply as I waited for her to continue. "I bet you can't wait to meet all kinds of Alolan Pokemon whilst we're here," that got me more excited as I grinned up at her, offering a thumbs up in the form of 'of course'. Then the sound of the door bell caught me slightly off-guard, but mom just laughed. "That must be Kukui, go let him in."

Running towards the door, I jolted back when it opened itself. This left to a half-glare at Kukui as he nonchalantly walked into the house as if he owned the place. Not gonna complain though, this guy is the one who's allowing me to finally go on a Pokemon journey after all. "Hey, Moon. Welcome to Alola. Boy, you have to be tired from that plane journey. The jet-lag and such. We're certainly a long way from your home region," oh he had no clue how happy that made me feel. Grinning, I nodded my head.

Mom walked over and smiled at him. "We arrived a little way back, it certainly is amazing here."

Waving his hand at her, even though he was only a few feet away. "Hey there, mom. I just let myself in," well, at least, he's honest about it. "Welcome to Alola."

"Of course, I still remember watching you battle all of those Kanto gym leaders back home. It was amazing seeing how you fought courageously even against the hardest ones," smiling widely, she continued. "I've been in love with Alolan Pokemon ever since and decided to move me and Moon here."

Laughing wildly, Kukui continued. "I was supposed to be there studying Pokemon moves, but those gym leaders proved me wrong about my assumptions over my ability to battle," turning to me, he continued. "Well lets get a move on to the next town, cousin. Time for you to meet the Island Kahuna and get your starter Pokemon, yah!"

I don't care how crazy I looked, but my face lit up at the sound of receiving my starter Pokemon. Kukui must have noticed since he laughed kindly, smiling at my clear interest in Pokemon. I felt like jumping up and down with joy, but that would have been embarrassing around my mom. Then something clicked when I remembered the word 'kahuna' and signed the syllables of the word. Lucky for me, Kukui understood and smiled as he explained. "The kahunas are crazy-strong Pokemon Trainers here in Alola, cousin. On some level, they're unbeatable for regular folks for me and you. However, I'm sure that you'll one day overcome them."

He then paused in thought for a second, before continuing. "And the Kahuna that lives in Iki Town would be more than happy to give any kid their first Pokemon when they wish to go on a journey. Even a trainer such as yourself, yeah."

Mom smiled gently, reaching over to hug me. "These Kahunas sound like they're worth meeting if they're kind enough to give my baby girl a Pokemon," I didn't dodge the hug, but I did grimace at being called a baby. I was 11, not 3! Letting me out of the hug, she put her hands on her hips and said. "You better hurry up and get ready. Your hat, bag and all that are in your bedroom in the boxes. I'm sure you know where to look."

Hearing the word hat, Kukui smiled. "Ooh, I bet you got a styling hat. Just like mine, yeah?" I gave a voiceless chuckle at this, thinking about to how dorky my hat actually looked.

Rushing to my bedroom, I pulled at the box tower and opened it up. Inside, my watermelon patterned bag and pink feathery hat were positioned clean and safe with no damages. Smiling, I pulled the hat out and gently draped it over my short hair. Sure, it was dorky but everyone back home said it looked cute. Then I grabbed the bag and slug it over my shoulder, smiling peacefully. 'This looks great, I look ready to go on an adventure at last!' I thought, the mere idea of going on a journey bringing excitement and anticipation to my head. All the extreme thoughts lead me to running back out of the bed, seeing mom and Kukui chatting and laughing together like old times.

Noticing me, mom turned and smiled. "You look ready for anything, now. Have fun out there, and don't worry about me being against your journey anymore. Your bond with Pokemon was proven to me, when you confirmed that you could telepathically commune with Meowth. So I believe you'll be more than ready to go on a journey with your Pokemon. "I'll be sure to have everything cleaned up and put away by the time you return home."

After this, Kukui turned around and gave a thumbs up. "Woo, that's a stylin' hat, cousin!" even Meowth voiced his agreement, meowing loudly so everyone in the nearby vicinity for hear. This brought a chuckle from both mom and Kukui, even I cracked a little smile at the idea. Mom went off to clean up and Meowth, whilst Kukui smiled down at me. "Your mom there...whilst unsure, she seemed happy for you to receive your first Pokemon. So let's get going to Iki Town! It's time for you to get your very first Pokemon from the Kahuna, yah!"

Kukui then left, leaving me to ponder for a second. Looking over at mom, she seemed happy as she lifted and opened boxes of clothes. I was going to wave goodbye, but she seemed busy so I just stepped out of the house. I looked around for a second, adjusting myself to the bright sun. Gee, the sun in Kanto was nowhere near as potent and bright. I could see Kukui waving at me from down the path, so I jumped down all the steps and ran over. "Now this is more like it, yeah!" I wondered what he meant, but it explained anyway. "Welcome to paradise, cousin. This is the Alola region! Folks around here live and work with Pokemon, getting along swell!"

He paused, lifting his hand and placing it on my shoulder for support as he was well-aware that I wasn't prepared for a journey. My mom had only recently allowed me to go on one. "After all, you can go anywhere when you got Pokemon helping you out. That's why," he lifted his hand off my shoulder and stepped up the grassy path. "We gotta get you to the Kahuna."

"First, we gotta get to Iki Town. Its not far if we cut up here," he pointed up the path, noticing my intense smile and returning it in kind. On the route, there was a few trainers. A little boy with a Rockruff and a science-y guy, who talked about being able to trade and battle with others. As I caught up to Kukui again, after a short jog up the path. There was a little boy near him, but I paid no mind as he asked. "So, Moon. You're enjoyin' Alola already?" a excited nod jolted my vision up and down, as he smiled down at me. "That's great, soon you'll be completely in the norm here," the little kid from before ran over and gave a smile up to the professor. "Oh look, a little trainer came up to us. What is it?"

The boy seemed excited as he asked. "Professor Kukui, you gotta recommend another move for me and Rattata someday."

Kukui seemed confused though, as he responded. "Why? You already as well aware of the moves you wanna use, yah? You can come find me when your Pokemon learn another move and then I'll battle ya," stepping forward, I followed Kukui and caught sight of a girl with her Pikachu searching through the grass. "See that? When you have Pokemon, you can go into the grass and search for others to add to your team."

Following him further down the path, I caught sight of a genuine Pokemon battle between two trainers. Yungoos and a black Meowth staring each other down, proud of their power. "Trainers are able to go against one another in battle, using their Pokemon that they love."

The younger of the trainers leapt up and down in joy, calling to his Yuugoos. "Come on, Yuugoos. Tackle!" it cried out its name in response, clearly excited for the battle. The little trainer then noticed Kukui and turned around, waving. "Howzit! You're the new kid that just flew in. Let's have a Pokemon battle sometime!"

Waving back, I think I almost forgot about my lack of speech as I opened my mouth and gave a voiceless cough after a while. The little trainer seemed distressed, running over to check on me. Smiling, I ruffled his head and pulled out some paper from within my bag. Writing down that I was fine, he gave a bright smile and nodded. Even though what he said next sounded pitying, he said it in a kind voice that made me think that he wasn't. "So you can't speak, that's sad. Hope you still manage fine as a trainer."

'Oh, I certainly will.' I thought happily, smiling down at him with a nod of the head. The trainer then ran back to continue his battle, an excited glint in his eyes as his Yungoos yipped in agreement. I could hear a mild voice coming from it, low but audible saying that it couldn't wait. My smile only grew at the sight.

Kukui looked at me, with a smile. "Having Pokemon give a whole new way to communicate with others, see?" turning, he glanced at a couple of steps that lead to what I assumed was Iki Town. "Now let's get moving. Iki Town is right over there."

As I made it up the last step, I looked around in amazement at the town. Sure, it was simple in appearance. However everywhere I looked, there was a trainer with their Pokemon. Smiling brightly. Having fun. I wanted to be like that, more than anything. Kukui had done looking around and stepped back, concern on his face. "Looks like the Kahuna isn't around, nor is my assistant," this made me a little confused, he hadn't mentioned anything prior about having an assistant. Hope he or she is nice though. Professor Oak's Aids back in Kanto were kinda boring and too science-y for me. "Maybe they're all back there on Mahalo Trail," sensing my confusion, he explained. "It's the path that leads to the ruins that our guardian deity, Tapu Koko, are."

Turning around, he waved over to the path and said. "Would you mind going up the trail and seein' if you can find 'em, I'll stay around here in case they return," now I was frustrated, how was I supposed to find someone I had never met prior. Once again, noticing my frustrations, Kukui laughed and continued. "The Island Kahuna looks just like a kahuna," like that helps...

Oh well, best get going. Running up the nearby steps, I paused as I spotted something. A beautiful girl, about my age, wearing a gorgeous white hat on top of pristine blonde hair was standing by the entrance to the trail. On her side, she had a giant bag with a poke ball design on her hip and it seemed to be shaking. That my thoughts caught by up to me, did I just refer to her as beautiful?! Oh and why was the bag shaking, was there a Pokemon inside of it or something? Then I heard her voice and felt my legs go weak in amazement. "Really? You want to go to the ruins?" there was a touch of annoyance in her bell-like voice, as she tried to stop her bag shaking in worry. "I...don't know what you two hope to find there..."

Watching her step forward onto the Mahalo Trail, something in the back of my head told me to follow her. To make sure she'd be alright. So I dashed forward, going onto the trail, passing by the battle-like deck in the middle of the upper-part of the town. The trail was pretty, just a straight away up. The path marked with wooden logs and iron totem. Stepping up the trail, I kept spotting the pretty girl every now and again. Her complaints about her bag shaking becoming slightly more frustrated. Her final whine was "You can't come out! Nobody can see you two or will be in trouble!"

The top of the Mahalo trail lead out to a bridge over a river, said river originating from a water fall. The girl gasped out as the little creatures that she had been hiding burst from her bag. They were near identical, like little balls of cosmos. One had blue cheeks and the other had pinkie-red, indicating that one of them was a special color variant known as a shiny. I was shocked at the sight of this, they seemed so extraordinary and rare. I wondered for a second, why such a young girl was processing such rarity.

The little creatures flew forward onto the bridge, seemingly playing. But then, a look of horror flashed onto their faces as a trio of Spearow flew down and began to attack them. I heard a cry of 'Pewww', which lead me to charge forward. I barely even heard the girl's distressed cry of 'wait' before I arrived on the unstable, rocking bridge. I wrapped my arms protectively around the little creatures, not caring as the Spearows painful pecks. However, it seemed like the little creatures were getting more and more scared when suddenly a burst of power erupted below me. The bridge broke under the pressure and the next thing I knew, I was falling towards the water with the little nebulas in my arms. I closed my eyes, fearing death before I received my first Pokemon...

Okay and that's that for the first chapter. Hope its good. Moon is an interesting character to write, seeing as she is mute in my story. Oh and the reason I decided to go with two Cosmog, one shiny and one normal, is simple. I couldn't decide whether to go for Pokemon Sun's story or Moon's, so I ended up having two Cosmog so I could use both cover legendaries. Hope this isn't a problem and yes, the shiny Cosmog will have a different nickname. One, that I think is still cute. But I won't reveal it just yet.
