Moon (Japanese: ムーン Moon) is a main character in the manga series Pokémon Adventures.
Character
Moon is a girl not originally from the Alola region. She does not enjoy Alola's tropical air, stating that it doesn't suit her character. She isn't one to be fooled by others, easily seeing through Sun's deception and seeing through the lies of the Team Skull Grunts. Moon is a pharmacist and is proficient with various healing techniques. Additionally, she is a skilled archer, which helps her get medicinal supplies by firing at the desired item with her bow and arrow.
History
Moon is first seen at the Hau'oli City Beachfront, where she laments aboout being in Alola, which she claims does not suit her. As she heads off to her delivery, a Pyukumuku hits Moon in the face. A boy named Sun apologizes for the accident and explains that he was hired to remove wild Pyukumuku from the beach. Angered that the Pyukumku's slime made her clothes wet, Moon demands Sun to pay her as compensation. Sun tries to get out by stating that Pyukumuku's slime is good for skin care, but Moon refuses to believe his claims. After explaining that he has his reasons for not being able to pay for her clothes, Sun offers to make it up to Moon instead.
After Sun finishes the job, a pair of Team Skull Grunts arrive to check to see if Sun finished the job they hired him for. Just as they are about to give Sun his money, one of the Grunts' Salandit spots a single Pyukumuku remaining. Since the job was to remove all the Pyukumuku from the beach, the Grunt refuses to pay Sun at all. Moon sees through the deception and reveals the female Grunt actually planted the extra Pyukumuku. Angered, the Grunts' sic one of their Salandit to hit Moon with its tail. The male Grunt then acts as if the act broke Salandit's tail, which meant that Sun would have to work for them for free to pay for the medical bills. Angered, Sun breaks off the cast his leg was in and battles the Grunts with his Meowth, Dollar. After driving the Grunts off, Sun sends out his Litten, En, and has it dry off Moon's clothes with its flame.
Sun then decides to pay back Moon by offering to take her delivery to Professor Kukui. After summoning a Tauros with a Ride Pager, Sun sets out to Professor Kukui's, only to come back after realizing that he forgot to take the item that needed to be delivered. Moon reveals that the delivery is actually herself and the Rotom she had with her. Sun then takes Moon through Hau'oli City's Shopping District, where they meet the locals. When Sun's injured foot begins to start hurting again, Sun is left unable to move. Moon decides to help Sun with her medical skills. She searches through a collection of healing items, but is unable to find the Figy Berry she needs to help Sun. After finding the Berry in a tree being pecked at by wild Pikipek, Moon pulls out a bow with a Poké Ball-tipped arrow and fires it at the Berry to knock it to the ground.
With the Berry, Moon heals Sun's injury. When Sun asks why she didn't use a Pokémon, Moon tries to explain, but is interrupted when Sun notices something in the sky. Moon turns around to find that Tapu Koko, the guardian deity of Melemele Island, has appeared before them. Tapu Koko proceeds to attack the two, forcing Sun to battle it. After a short battle, Tapu Koko escapes and leaves behind a Sparkling Stone. Afterward, Moon and Sun arrive at Professor Kukui's laboratory, only to find the Professor falling from off of the roof after testing out the moves of his Rowlet and Popplio.
