====Background and pre-game====
'''Website blurb:''' "''You will choose to be a hero or heroine in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, and you can name yourself whatever you'd like. The story begins right after your character has moved to the Alola region. No sooner have you arrived than your adventures begin to unfold, and you'll meet many people and Pokémon as you grow and learn.''"


During her island challenge, Selene encounters [[Team Skull]], a group of hooligans harassing people and interfering with the island life; the [[Aether Foundation]], an organization dedicated to protecting Pokémon; and [[Gladion]], a mysterious boy who works as an enforcer for Team Skull. She also learns about [[Ultra Beast]]s, mysterious creatures that exist in a dimension called [[Ultra Space]]; and about [[Professor Kukui]]'s dream of building an Alolan {{al|Pokémon League}}.

Mistaking the young girl for the kahuna, she runs into [[Lillie]], who's {{p|Cosmog}}, [[Nebby]], has escaped her bag and gets attacked by [[wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Spearow}} on an [[Mahalo Trail|unsteady plank bridge]]. She quickly protects the Pokémon despite not having one of her own. After the bridge collapses, the island's [[guardian deities|guardian deity]], {{p|Tapu Koko}}, saves the two from falling. Selene quickly befriends Lilllie and Nebby who then proceed to walk back to Iki Town for Selene to choose her first Pokémon. After doing so, she gives the [[Sparkling Stone]] to Hala, receives a [[Pokédex]] from the professor, and meets [[Hau]], a [[rival]] who she befriends and has battle with often.

Along the way, she meets with [[Hapu]], [[Colress]], and [[Professor Kukui|The Masked Royal]] who all view Pokémon in different ways. Selene makes her way back down to Heahea's Dimensional Research Lab ran by Kukui's wife, [[Professor Burnet]].

Hokulani]], she learns from Professor Kukui about the now developing [[Pokémon League (Alola)|Pokémon League]]. Returning to [[Malie Garden]], Selene runs into [[Guzma]], Team Skull's Boss who thinks the Pokémon League and island challenge is unnecessary. Noticing her Z-Ring, Guzma picks a fight with Selene and shows him her strength. Selene regroups with Hau and travels down to [[Tapu Village]] to stay at [[Aether House]]. Along the way, they run into Gladion once more, who aggressively tells the two to protect Cosmog at all costs if they know anything about it. Selene travels to [[Po Town]] to rescue a {{p|Yungoos}} living at the orphanage. This turns out to be a scheme conducted by Team Skull's Admin [[Plumeria]], who Selene has fought before, kidnapping Lillie and Nebby and brings them to Aether Paradise.

Lusamine had ended up kidnapping Nebby and using its powers to unleash hordes of Ultra Beasts across the Alola region, ending with both her and Guzma traveling to [[Ultra Space]] after a battle. This process has caused Nebby to evolve into {{p|Cosmoem}} (although none of them seem to be aware of this). The group splits off and Gladion gives Lillie the [[Moon Flute]]{{sup/7|S}}/[[Sun Flute]]{{sup/7|M}}.
 
====Poni Island====
