It's based of seasons, and I'm making regional Tapus. Each season gets one Tapu. Summer is fire, winter is ice, autumn/fall is grass or ghost, and spring is grass or fairy.
Who gets what season?

The Guardians. Tapu Koko, Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini and Tapu Lele. The four Guardians of Alola. We have all known since the begining that the Alola region is based on Hawaii. The Hawaiian greeting Aloha serves as the basis of the region's name and greeting "Alola!" Surely I'm only telling you what you've already known, but I have come to tell you about how much of Hawaii is actually kept alive in Alola. The Guardian Pokemon for instance. In Hawaiian antiquity, hey have myths and legends that mirror those in Alola almost down to a "T".
Ku was the Hawaiian god of War and other stuff that I'll leave out. He is the Pokemon cunterpart to Tapu Koko. In Hawaiian mythology, Ku was the husband of the goddess Hina who was represented by the Moon. In Hawaiian, the name for the moon is Mahina. That, if I remember correctly, is the call of Lunala. "Mahina-pea!" Whether it is the same or not, a goddess named Hina was said to be the mother of the Demi-god Maui. Did you know that? You didn't? No need to thank me, it's okay. "Your welcome." Maui is also known as the god of the sun. Hmm. The goddess of the moon's son is the god of the sun. Does that make Maui a Cosmog destined to become a Solgaleo? Necrozma on the other hand is still unknown to me as I have yet to find a Hawaiian myth that could connect to him. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. As for the other guardians, Tapu Bulu is based on Lono who was the Hawaiian god of agriculture, rainfall and other things that may be a bit inapropriate for this particular fandom. Tapu Fini is based on the Kanaloa who is known to be a god of the ocean. Tapu Lele is based on Kane, who is considered the highest of the four, and is closely related to Kanaloa. Kane was considered to be the bringer of life and was thought to be the ancestor of the commoners and chiefs. And just like in the games, the Kahunas were not only chiefs, but priests, healers and the like. All of the NEW legendaries in Sun and Moon have a source in Hawaiian mythology. I must war you though. I may not be 100% accurate in this explaination. I am by NO MEANS an expert in Hawaiian mythology. It can be complicated as there are many dieties with the same or similar names and functions who did the same or similar things. One example would be Hina who is said to be the wife of Ku, but also is know to be the wife of another. It would be best for you to look these things up yourself. This is just to help you see where a lot of the mythology of Alola originated. I want to hear your comments below to help me make sense of it all. I hope you enjoyed this and I look forward to hearing what you think!
