History

Nihilego saving Mohn

Nihilego first appeared in JN111, living with Mohn, after having rescued him. It was shown through flashbacks, that Nihilego used to live in the Ultra Deep Sea, where an Ultra Wormhole opened suddenly and brought Mohn there. It read Mohn's memories and saw his family and helped Mohn escape through another Wormhole, ending up in the Crown Tundra in Galar.

Nihilego kept company to Mohn, who had developed amnesia and lost his memories of his real family, the entire time he stayed in Galar. Due to reading his memories, Nihilego would often create illusions, usually disguised as Lillie and play the piano.

After Mohn reunited with his family and gained his memory back, Nihilego attempted to leave, but was asked by Lillie, Gladion, Lusamine, and Mohn to join their family, which it happily accepted. Gladion then offered his Beast Ball and Nihilego was caught.

Personality and characteristics

Nihilego with Gladion's family

Unlike most Nihilego in the series, Nihilego is shown to be very caring as seen when it rescued Mohn and took care of him during the time they lived in Galar. It is also shown to be very protective, being ready to attack Lillie and Lusamine since they weren't familiar.

Nihilego is also shown to have a lonely nature as it didn't want Mohn to gain his memories, because it feared that Mohn would abandon it.
