I bought Pokemon Sun and Moon for my husband Ron for Christmas last year because he was interested in them. He was quite happy with his Christmas gifts. Ron started playing Pokemon Sun and he suggested I try out Pokemon Moon. I started playing and I have to say it was a lot of fun.
Exploring the island is fun and you can have Pokemon battles with other trainers you meet on your journey which helps with level grinding and getting money when you win. You also have a Pokedex that helps you keep track of all the Pokemon you catch. There are Pokemon centers all over the islands where you can buy items you need as well as take some time to heal your Pokemon.
The story is quite good as well (it is the same story in in Sun with a few differences such as the Pokemon are different for each game) and it kept me interested in what would happen next. The characters you meet are great and the locations are fun also. I found myself just stopping and exploring. There are a lot of shops too where you can buy different outfits for yourself. You can change your hair style also if you wish.
Besides the main story and trials, you can also visit a place called Festival Plaza. You can interact with visitors helping them to visit a store or answer questions and earn Festival coins as a reward. You can build new things with the Festival coins such as new attractions for training Pokemon. With each level up you can add more things.
*Pokemon Moon is available to play on the Nintendo 3DS
You can play as a boy or a girl who lives on Aola island with your mother. The story goes from there where you can get a free starter Pokemon from Professor Kukui. You have three starter Pokemon to choose from: a flying grass type Rowlet, a fire type Litten, or a water type Popplio. I went with the fire type, a Litten. Kukui proceeds to tell you about the different island trials you must pass on each island as a Pokemon trainer.

I had fun with the battles just choosing which Pokemon would work for the battle. There's even a group of funny villains like Team Rocket known as Team Skull. You run into them fairly often and have battles with them.

The side quests and main story are great and the game itself is excellent with easy navigation and a user friendly menu and battle system. There are a lot of fantastic things to do after the main game is finished like catching more Pokemon for your pokedex or visit a cafe and earn treats for your Pokemon. Pokemon Moon is one of those rare gems that is just cheerful and fun for everyone.
