Sailor Moon features time travel and the rewriting of what happened on occasion, so there are a number of times when an alternate timeline is seen. After the introduction of Chibiusa the 'past' no longer appears to be changable, as the death of either parent could not rewrite the second half of the R season.
Anime: Season 1
At the end of the first season of Sailor Moon, Usagi Tsukino wished on the Silver Crystal to be a normal girl. The wish ended that timeline and the R season is a timeline as if the first season had never happened, except the characters have remnants of that timeline buried in their memories.
Anime: Stars Season
An alternate timeline is not actually shown but in theory existed during the time Mamoru Chiba was dead. Chibiusa was returned to the future just before that occured so her ceasing to exist for a time couldn't clue the senshi in to what happened.
Tomoe Family
Hotaru Tomoe was killed and reborn, that is true, but Professor Tomoe's perception and acceptance of her baby self may be a product of an alternate timeline placed into his memories by Sailor Moon. This one is iffy but still worth noting.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon
At the end of the series, again Usagi wishes on the Silver Crystal but it briefly reboots the world to an unspecific time where Usagi and Mamoru never existed but the other senshi retain some character development attained when they knew her. The girls never befriended each other but Naru Osaka and Ami Mizuno became friends with each other in the absense of Usagi.
Usagi and Mamoru are able rejoin this timeline, restoring everyone's memories of what happened during the series. It is possible this alternate timeline is selective amnesia except for the deletion of a few major events (more substantial than memory) from the end of the series.
