Pokémon Setting Sun and Waxing Moon is a romhack of Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

This hack is more difficult compare to Rising Sun and Waning Moon, for example, the first time Elite Four appears will be at level 90s. Although you are expected to have 90s-100s by that time, and the lucky eggs are made purchasable so you shouldn't have to grind much in this romhack.

Features

All Pokemon (with the exception of some legendaries at the moment) are obtainable throughout the four islands.
Weaker Pokemon with lower Base Stat Totals have had their stats buffed to become viable throughout the game.
The following Pokemon have received type changes/modifications: Farfetch'd, Volbeat, Illusime, Noctowl, Golduck, Shinx Line, Pidove Line.
Many Pokemon have had their movesets either slightly changed, or revamped.
Some Pokemon have new abilities they didn't previously have, such as Queenly Majesty on Vespiqueen and Nidoqueen.
Of course, the game is much more difficult and comes with a revamped level curve.
All Pokemon that previously evolved through trade now evolve through normal methods such as using the held item required or leveling up.
A majority of the Pokemon have their less impactful abilities swapped out for their Hidden ones, with some exceptions, such as Minus or Plus.
All Evolution stones are now purchasable for convenience.
All Alolan Evolutions can now be avoided by leveling up the Pokemon with the held item instead of using it (e.g. Level up a Pikachu while holding a thunderstone for normal Raichu, while using it would result in Alolan).
And much more.

Installation

To use this romhack you will need the latest build of Luma3DS, and the hack's GARC files.

Luma game patcher method:

Navigate to SD:/luma/titles/.
Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (00040000001B5000 for Ultra Sun, 00040000001B5100 for Ultra Moon).
Copy the romfs folder inside GRAC Files.rar into the folder you just created.
Make sure Enable Game Patching is checked in luma's config (hold Select on boot).
You can now start Ultra Sun/Moon. The easiest way to tell if its working is by starting a new game or checking your Trainer Passport.

Note: For Pokemon Ultra Sun, you will need to rename the 3 file in a/0/8 to 2.

-==CURRENT PROGRESS:==
+Luma game patcher method:
-Everything except Post Game, I'm currently quite exhausted, but by the time anyone makes it that far, it'll be completed.
+* Navigate to SD:/luma/titles/.
+* Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (00040000001B5000 for Ultra Sun, 00040000001B5100 for Ultra Moon).
+* Copy the romfs folder inside GRAC Files.rar into the folder you just created.
+* Make sure Enable Game Patching is checked in luma's config (hold Select on boot).
+* You can now start Ultra Sun/Moon. The easiest way to tell if its working is by starting a new game or checking your Trainer Passport.
-If you post a cia/these files elsewhere, please give credit by linking back to this thread.
+'''Note:''' For Pokemon Ultra Sun, you will need to rename the 3 file in a/0/8 to 2.
-'''NOTE:''' ULTRA SUN/MOON RECENTLY GOT AN UPDATE, FOR NOW DO NOT UPDATE YOUR USUM OR ELSE THE GAME WILL CRASH WHEN TRYING TO BUY FROM A SHOP WHEN USING THESE ROMHACKS. I'm working on a fix.
-That's right, I'm back and this is happening. Just like last time, these hacks aim to be in the &quot;Drayano&quot; style, but unlike last time I took a lot of liberties. I decided to go all out, and the game is even ''harder'' than Rising Sun/Waning Moon was. To put it in perspective, the Elite Four the ''first'' time around has level 90s. However, of course you are expected to have level 90s-100s by that time.
-You shouldn't have to grind ''much'' in this romhack. To help you out in a situation where you do have to grind, I shortened the process down quite a bit by making lucky eggs purchasable.
-'''Much like last time, I base my romhacks off of feedback and lots of testing from people''' '''''besides''''' '''myself. While there were some beta testers, nobody has currently made it through the whole thing besides myself. PLEASE, give feedback. It really helps make this a more enjoyable experience for everyone.'''
