Well, this is just a compilation of rescue stories inspired from some I've heard or seen on the internet. Gladion and Moon are a pairing. Each chapter is a seperate story so this could end on any chapter. Some stories between Gladion and Moon may occur in the back but mostly just glimpses of their personal lives.
The rescue center opened on Melemele island for injured and abandoned pokemon. It was the new pride and joy of the Aether foundation and president Gladion arranged it all. Of course, head quarters would also shelter pokemon as well but this facility would have everything needed to care for pokemon in need of medical care and shelter. The Aether Hospital and Rescue Center was open for any pokemon to be brought in and rehabilitated.
The first floor actually had a pokemon center, complete with a cafe and a shop for trainers to relax. Near that was a court yard for the pokemon kept to play in and to allow trainers and potential new owners to view the pokemon. One wall on the side of the lobby and pokemon center area was even a window into a big pool for available water type pokemon to be viewed. However, not all of the pokemon will be adoptable. Wild pokemon will have the choice to go back to the wild while other pokemon will have the choice to choose who they want as their new owner. In the back was the hospital where sick pokemon were kept for treatment. There was also an outdoor area in the back of the hospital which was similar to the courtyard out front and even a pool to keep water types but this was an area to keep recovering sick pokemon and wild pokemon.
In other news vital to these stories: Moon is still a strong champion, having defended her title for quite a few years. She did, however, lose her title to Hau for a year but won it back. The year after that, the island Kahuna Hala died but he lived long enough to see Hau live up to his highest potential. His very last words to Hau was how proud he was of him. Moon had just started working for the Alola shelter as one of the rescuers. Meanwhile, Hau and Lillie had just gotten married and are settling into their new life back at Iki Town where Hau continues to train and try win over the favor of the tapu pokemon in order to become the next Kahuna. Lillie retired from her life as a pokemon trainer and works as a pokemon doctor at the rescue center. Her old team helps care for the sick and injured pokemon. Nebby, which had been given to her later in life from Moon, has been released but occasionally visits the shelter to help out.
Lusamine, now a sickly old woman, lives with Hau and Lillie. Moon's mom had befriended her and she often helps around the house while Lillie and Hau are away. Due to Nihilego's poison having been inside of Lusamine for years, Lusamine's health had declined. Many doctors say that she may die sooner if she's not careful. Lillie and Lusamine moved back to the Alola region because they were ordered to stay in a warmer climate. She and Lillie have a close relationship, as if nihilego never touched her. However, she and Gladion still have a tense relationship.
Speaking of the young edgelord, he has grown up into a fine young man. Gladion became a very successful president of the Aether foundation, having done such a good job that the Aether foundation had expanded into making a rescue center on Melemele island. Wicke often takes over if Gladion ever decides to take time off. Though the best president the Aether foundation has ever had, he is also still just a young adult and often is encouraged to find time for himself. Lately, however, he's been working as one of the rescuers for the shelter. Helping pokemon had always been his passion. Occasionally, he challenges the champion and only came close to winning once. He was truly a leader to be proud of. With some encouragement from Lillie, he went on to become friends with Hau and Moon. He always tries to set aside time to spend time with them, especially Moon since she's also busy with the responsibilities of being champion and now one of his workers.
Gladion also works closely with his father, Mohn, whom still has amnesia from the wormhole. Mohn was knowledgeable with what pokemon liked to do and he helped design the yards and pools for the rescue center. Sadly, despite how many times Gladion has tried to get him to remember, Mohn cannot remember his life with his family. The next best thing Gladion could do was work closely with him. Mohn never understood why Gladion would give him certain things, some of them looking familiar but never quite ringing a bell. Lillie also visits him every now and then as well but she didn't quite remember much about him like Gladion did. Mohn has commented about Lusamine looking beautiful in pictures that he's seen of her but nothing more. All they could do was keep him as a friend and hope that one day, he'll finally remember who they are.
However, though vital to these stories, we aren't here entirely for them. No, we are here to follow them and what they do for the people and pokemon of their world. Each and everyone of them are heroes in their own right. No... I'm here to tell you my story of the encounters that changed my life forever. Surprise! It's me, Moon! And I'm going to tell you about the rescues that left the biggest impressions on all of us. But this isn't just about the rescues, this is also about family. I'm sitting here on my chair on the deck of my house, flipping through a pile of old scrap books about all the pokemon I've rescued. My mom put these together for me and the Aether Foundation Rescue. She didn't have to but now I'm thankful for it. I may not be able to tell you about all of them but, I will tell you about what sticks out.
Brief introduction chapter to the series! I may never finish but I'm hoping to make it so that there are no cliff hangers. So that there is one chapter and boom! It could be done there and it would be fine. This is a series specifically for writing exercises as well as for enjoyment.
