Lillie (Japanese: リーリエ Lilie) is a character introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, she serves as one of the player character's allies and traveling companions during the course of the game.
In the core series games
Pokémon Sun and Moon
Background and pre-game
Lillie is first revealed as a mysterious girl who is central to the plot of Pokémon Sun and Moon. She assists, and is shown to live with, Professor Kukui for personal reasons. She really dislikes Pokémon battles as she does not like seeing Pokémon get hurt, instead she loves to read and is in fact a very cultured girl. At the beginning of the story, she is somewhat shy, fearful and has little self-confidence. Lillie has a fear of heights and appears to enjoy history.
Lillie is first seen attempting to flee Aether Paradise three months prior to the beginning of the player's adventure, during the opening cutscene. Just when she is surrounded, she is Teleported by a mysterious force, later revealed to be the Pokémon hiding in her bag, a Cosmog, which she had nicknamed Nebby. Lillie and Nebby wash up on a beach, where they are found by Professor Burnet, who listens to Lillie's story and agrees to help her learn more about Nebby. She contacts her husband, Professor Kukui, who allows her to stay with him as his assistant. She lives in the Pokémon Research Lab's loft, where she sleeps on a blue sofa bed, which Hau takes notice of and finds to be interesting. Lillie does not allow anyone up there, preferring her privacy.
On Melemele Island
The player first meets Lillie on Mahalo Trail, where she watches helplessly as Nebby is being attacked by a group of wild Spearow on an unstable rope bridge, she has a fear of heights. Despite not yet having a Pokémon of their own, the player steps in to protect Nebby, and is in turn, assisted and recognized by Melemele Island's island guardian, Tapu Koko, when the bridge collapses. Afterwards, Lillie accompanies the player back to Iki Town, where she watches them receive their starter, and later their Z-RingSM or Z-Power RingUSUM. She watches the battle between Hau and the player, and is somewhat reluctant to watch the player's Pokémon battles as she hates seeing Pokémon take damage, but makes an exception. The following day, she accompanies the player to Kukui's Lab, helping them provide information on Rotom and the Rotom Pokédex, and later provides them a tour of the Pokémon Center. Her and the professor bring the player to the Trainers' School and helps assists them in learning the basics of being a Pokémon Trainer. Lillie is revealed to have a playful side, as she teases the player for getting called to the principal's office. Following the events, she calls the player over and has a conversation with the player as they walk to the following location. She visits Hau'oli City along with Hau and the player, who proceed to take a group picture using Rotom Dex. After the player completes their first trial, Lillie appears to get lost and Nebby escapes from her bag and runs off into Melemele Meadow, so the player must find the Pokémon and return it back to her. After the player defeats Kahuna Hala, she goes to Akala Island alongside the player and Hau. Before their leave, Lillie makes a request, help learn more about Nebby. She respects the player's power and strength as a Pokémon Trainer, something she is not or has, and would like someone like them to help them out. The group travels on Professor Kukui's boat to Akala Island where some jokes are tossed around between the player and Hau. Contrasting with Hau's goofy and laid-back behavior, Lillie tends to take things more seriously, not understanding the humor that the others in the group may have.
On Akala Island
After the boat ride to Heahea City ,the group meets up with Olivia along with one of the Trial Captains, Mallow. With Nebby out of her drum bag, Lillie ngets fearful of this telling it to get back inside, Kukui tells her that it is alright, as Olivia is Akala's kahuna. During her time in Heahea City, Lillie mostly stays at the Tide Song Hotel, apparently to meet somebody there, and also in fear of Team Skull, who she saw lurking around the area. She meets up with the player while shopping and tells them that, in her quest to learn more about Nebby, she would like to visit each of the ruins of Alola where the guardian deities live. She also requests some help for herself, due to not being a Trainer, she would like the player to help learn more about Nebby and its species. She rejoins the player and Hau when Professor Kukui summons them to the Dimensional Research Lab, which conducts research into Pokémon coming from other dimensions and is headed by Professor Burnet. At the lab, Lillie explains her relationship with Professor Burnet, and more of her and Nebby's history, sayign that Burnet is like a mother to her. Lillie eventually manages to get lost again while looking for the Ruins of Life, in fear that she may have seen Team Skull, but ends up running into Professor Burnet. The two travel to the ruins, meeting up with the player and Kahuna Olivia. She watches the battle between the two, seemingly enjoying the fight, saying Nebby would enjoy it too. Afterwards Hau returns to the group and reminds the player that Faba of the Aether Foundation wants to see them. This causes Lillie to become nervous and insists on staying to watch the battle with Hau and Olivia. Notably, she does not join the player and Hau in their tour of Aether Paradise. She, along side Professor Kukui, meet up with the player and Hau on Ula'ula Island.
On Ula'ula Island
On Ula'ula Island, Lillie is first seen as a roadblock in Malie City, directing the player to check out Malie Garden to meet Professor Kukui. At her request, Lillie then asks the player to come with them to the Malie Library to research Cosmog and Ula'ula's ruins. Once again, Lillie ends up getting lost, running into an apparel store and buying a new outfit that she laughs off saying that she doesn't "have the guts to wear an outfit like it." Being introduced to Hapu at the library's entrance and gets offered by her to help with exploring the islands and ruins. Inside, she meets Acerola, a trial captain on Ula'Ula. Acerola brings out a book that once belonged to her father and suspects that it may be a book Lillie is interested in reading, called The Light of Alola. Lillie begins her research on Alola's history while the player does their island challenge. She eventually breaks away from Acerola and Hapu to travel on her own, seeing what it is like to be a Trainer on her own, is caught by two Team Skull Grunts on Route 15 and gets protected by the player. Lillie, alongside Hau, stays at Aether House, the orphanage where Acerola lives, as the player continues their trial with Acerola. During this time, a Yungoos belonging to one of the children at Aether House gets kidnapped, and the player must travel to Po Town, where team Skull keeps their base. Due to the player's absence, Lillie and Nebby are also kidnapped by Team Skull in an operation led by Plumeria, who implies that Team Skull are not the only ones who steal Pokémon; Lillie goes with them willingly and quietly, while Hau is unable to defeat Plumeria to save her. Upon informing the player about this, Gladion, a Team Skull enforcer that the player and Hau have encountered several times, who has warned them to ensure nothing happens to Cosmog, barges in having overheard the conversation. He takes them to Aether Paradise, where he claims he is certain Lillie has been brought.
On Aether Paradise
After raiding the facility, whose employees have now become hostile to under the pretext that they're intruders, the player manages to enter the house and office of the Aether Foundation's President, Lusamine, where they find Lillie trying to reason with her. Hau and the player find out that Lillie is the daughter of Lusamine, and that Gladion is her older brother, who had also ran away from Aether Paradise for notably similar reasons. Lusamine berates both Lillie and Gladion for leaving and stealing the Pokémon from her, after all the love she gave them, and no longer shows care for either of them. The information the player finds in Aether Paradise, as well as in the conversation between Lillie and Lusamine, reveal that Nebby was actually a research experiment of the Aether Foundation in its attempt to open more Ultra Wormholes across Alola and harness the power of the Ultra Beasts; knowing that the strain of this would be fatal on Nebby, Lillie had taken it from Aether Paradise. Lusamine had managed to take Nebby back, after a plot developed with help from Team Skull and their boss, Guzma. Lusamine holds Nebby within the cage an opens Ultra Wormholes in front of the group, releasing Ultra Beasts across Alola, including a Nihilego inside the Trophy Room they are currently standing in. Lusamine and Guzma disappear into the Ultra Wormhole after confronts with the player and Hau. Nebby is revealed to have evolved into Cosmoem in the process, although none of them are seemingly aware of this. The group then resides at Aether Paradise for the night, under the care of Wicke, with Lillie choosing to stay in the bed that she shared with her mother when she was younger. After losing her mother and seeing the state Nebby is in, Lillie finds herself at a turning point where she realizes she has to do something and undergoes a dramatic change. She changes her outfit, calling it her "Z-powered form" (Japanese: 全力の姿 full-powered form), officially as Lively Lillie (Japanese: がんばリーリエ Good Luck Lillie). With determination to save both Nebby and her mother, Lillie joins the player on Poni Island and is given the Moon FluteSUS or Sun FluteMUM by Gladion before they leave.
On Poni Island
At Seafolk Village, the two part ways with Gladion, and proceed to talk with locals for information on the island. Lillie and the player are instructed by the village chief to meet with Hapu, in order to talk with Poni's island kahuna. Only to find out from Hapu that her grandfather, the previous kahuna, is no longer with them. Hapu takes Lillie and the player to the Ruins of Hope, in hope of finding more answers on Nebby and witness Hapu's appointment as kahuna by Tapu Fini. After Lillie learns more about her friends and Nebby, Hapu directs them to Exeggutor Island, a former trial site, where the Sun FluteSUS or Moon FluteMUM lies. On the island, a wild Alolan Exeggutor attacks Lillie, giving her a rush of what it is like to be a Trainer. It begins to rain and the two run towards a cave. There, Lillie explains to the player about her history with her mother as they retrieve the missing flute, telling stories about the future and how Lusamine was once a very nice person. After the player's final Grand Trial against Kahuna Hapu, the two go through Vast Poni Canyon, where she adventures alongside the player to reach the end of the canyon and even attempts her "trial" by conquering her fears while crossing a narrow bridge alone. After all the adventure through the canyon, she becomes much more confident and braver. Finally, the player and Lillie ascend the Altar of the SunneSUS or Altar of the MooneMUM where they are directed to play the Sun and Moon Flutes together. As they do so, Nebby is drawn from Lillie's bag and evolves into SolgaleoSUS or LunalaMUM, which amazes Lillie, who had never read about their relationship to each other before.
In Ultra Space
Lillie requests Nebby for its help to save Lusamine. Nebby then uses either it's Sunsteel StrikeS or Moongeist BeamM, creating an Ultra Wormhole, and grabs both Lillie and the player going through Ultra Space. In Ultra Space, Lillie and the player find themselves in a black sea-like landscape where it is hard to breathe. They find a lone Guzma, who was terrified for the first time, explaining what the Ultra Beast they encounted does—uses bodies as a host and posses them. Guzma claims that Lusamine is beyond reason, however Lillie is unfazed by this, and goes to confront her anyways. Walking past Guzma, Lillie finds herself in front of Lusamine and they exchange thoughts. Lillie doesn't like the way that Lusamine has treated her, other people, or Pokémon, calling Lusamine out on her selfish behavior. Lusamine dismisses Lillie's thoughts and opinions, calling her ugly for leaving her and befriending the player. Lillie finally manages to stand up to her proving that she is much braver than before and facing her greatest fear, her own mother. Lusamine berates the player as well, calling them a hateful Trainer, telling the two of them to leave. Lusamine summons a Nihilego from a Beast Ball, and merges with the Ultra Beast, initiating another fight with the player. After the player defeats Lusamine, she attempts to strike Lillie with one of her tentacles, but Lillie cries out to Nebby for help, who sends out a psychic shock wave that manages to separate Lusamine from Nihilego. Before losing consciousness, Lusamine asks Lillie when she started becoming more beautiful. In that moment, Lillie realizes that the mother she remembers can actually come back, her real mother.
Ending
Upon returning to Alola, Nebby indicates its desire to join and travel with Lillie and the player, Lillie gently refuses as she is not a Pokémon Trainer but she suggests it join the player instead, who it has also befriended during the story. Lillie starts acting motherly towards Nebby, telling it to not get hurt, or hurt other people, or get lost, or leave its Poké Ball like it did when it was in her bag. Nebby agrees to be the player's Pokémon and a fight begins, with Lillie watching. After being caught, Lillie then leaves to take care of her sickly mother, and until the player becomes Champion she is not seen, as she is busy caring for Lusamine in Aether Paradise along with her brother. The player meets up with Gladion eventually at the foot of Mount Lanakila, who proceeds to battle the player with one last battle. On Lillie's behalf, Gladion gives the player 3 Max Elixers, and to telegraph a message: telling the player that they are the "best Trainer in the world". During the festivities in Iki Town, Lillie and the player quietly slip away to the Ruins of Conflict to give thanks to Tapu Koko; when they return, she tells the player that Lusamine is getting a bit better, and even wanted to join the party, and that she has been gently helping her understand what she has done. She also stops short of telling the player something seemingly important; this is revealed the next day by Hau, to be her departure for Kanto, where she plans to seek treatment for her mother and become a Trainer in her own right. She gives the player her old Poké Doll and says goodbye to them. She is not seen after this.
While Lillie does not appear in-person during the credits, two photographs of Lillie are shown. First one being a version-exclusive photo alongside a fully evolved Nebby. In Pokémon Sun, Nebby will be a Solgaleo, shown nuzzling Lillie during the day time at the Altar of the Sunne, while in Pokémon Moon, Nebby will be shown nuzzling Lillie as a Lunala at the Altar of the Moone during the night. Over this image with Nebby, the quote "Everyone's smiles shine so brightly. Those smiles led us to so many other people. And those meetings will lead us to a bright future. I'm so glad I got to meet everyone. I'm so glad I got to meet you" is written. The following images show a package being opened next to Lillie's pink rucksack. This package contains a letter with drawings and imagery on it, and the final photograph seen in the credits — the photograph that Lillie took with Hau and the player when they first got to Hau'oli City. It can be assumed that the photographs and letter are from the player character's perspective, and Lillie was reading the letter aloud.
In the post-game
After Lillie has left, the player can read her diary in the loft of Professor Kukui's lab, as the lock has been pecked open by Murkrow. In it, Lillie writes that her flight from Aether Paradise had been planned ahead, with only Wicke aware of it, and that Wicke had told her to look for Professor Burnet. She is seemingly turned off at Professor Kukui's habit of going around half-naked. She also notes that Alola does not have any Gym Leaders or — at that time, toward the start of the player's journey — an Elite Four. Wicke also tells the player, upon their return to Aether Paradise, that the reason Lillie chose Kanto was to seek Bill, who, like Lusamine, has been combined with a Pokémon before, in the hopes that Lusamine would be healed of the last of Nihilego's poisons to finally come back as the good mother she was before.
Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon
While largely staying the same, Lillie's role in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon differs from how she is represented in the original Sun and Moon titles, including the ending of the game.
On Poni Island
Lillie remains at Seafolk Village with Mina, waiting for the player to get back with the other flute from Exeggutor Island. Before SolgaleoUS or LunalaUM can help Lillie, an Ultra Wormhole opens up and dumps Guzma and Lusamine onto the altar, followed by Necrozma. Despite Lusamine's request for Lillie to flee, she refuses to run away and is present when Necrozma absorbs Nebby, transforming into its Dusk ManeUS or Dawn WingsUM form. When it withdraws into the Ultra Wormhole, Lillie asks the player to follow Necrozma to Ultra Megalopolis and save Nebby. Following Ultra Necrozma's defeat, she and Lusamine bring Nebby back to Aether Paradise so it can heal from its injuries.
In Episode RR
After Team Rainbow Rocket's takeover of Aether Paradise, Lillie visits the player's house and asks for their help in saving Lusamine. She is later revealed to have become a Pokémon Trainer herself and acts as the player's partner in a Multi Battle against Faba and an Aether Foundation Employee. Throughout Episode RR, she mostly supports the player by healing their Pokémon.
In the post-game
Later on, after the player has defeated Ilima at Hau'oli Cemetery, she can be found back at Mahalo Trail with Nebby. As in Sun and Moon, Lillie suggests that Nebby can join the player in the hopes that they can calm Necrozma's fury if they encounter it again, allowing the player to capture it. After Nebby is caught, Lillie will give the player a Solganium ZUS/Lunalium ZUM, which she had found being held by Nebby.
After Episode RR, Lillie can be visited at Professor Kukui's laboratory on Route 1, where she will accept to join the player as a Multi Battle partner at the Battle Tree.
Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version

Cared for
This Cosmog, nicknamed Nebby (Japanese: ほしぐもちゃん Hoshigumo-chan) by Lillie, was a research subject of the Aether Foundation. Lillie rescued the Pokémon when she learned that the organization's experiments would eventually kill it, and thanks to its Teleport, was able to flee. Since escaping, Lillie has been taking Nebby to the ruins of the guardian deities of Alola, believing she can learn something about Nebby's true nature. Due to the circumstances, Lillie always keeps Nebby in a bag she carries around with her at all times. Nebby evolves into Cosmoem during the events of it and Lillie's kidnapping by the Aether Foundation. It then evolves into SolgaleoSUS or LunalaMUM, and after confronting LusamineSM or NecrozmaUSUM, is left in the custody of the player. | ||

Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon chapter
Lillie debuted in The Decision and the Tournament of Six. She was entered in an Iki Town festival tournament by mistake. When Moon and Olivia came to place Lillie in the tournament roster, Nebby broke out of Lillie's bag and ran away. They found Nebby at under attack by wild Spearow at Mahalo Trail, but Lillie was too scared to help, forcing Moon to step in and do it. When Moon got to Nebby, it used its powers to break the bridge they were standing on, causing both to fall into the water before Tapu Koko caught them and brought them to safety. After learning Lillie was entered in the tournament by mistake, Moon decided to take her place instead.
In The Announcement and the Prize, Lillie met with Professor Burnet at Professor Kukui's house. They watched the tournament on the television, but Lillie ended up falling asleep during the second battle and dreamt of her family.
In Flash and Cosmog's Secret, Lillie went shopping with Burnet. When Burnet asked about Lillie's clothes, she accidentally triggered painful memories of when Lillie was forcibly made to dress in her current attire by Lusamine against her wishes. Lillie's distress caused Nebby to fly out and claw at the sky, causing an Ultra Wormhole to form. After Lillie fainted, Nebby stopped and went down to check on her condition out of concern.
In Shipwreck and "Oh, What Sharp Teeth You Have, Bruxish!", Lillie and Burnet used Mantine Surf to arrive at Kukui's yacht as it was heading to Ula'ula Island. The group was attacked by a wild Bruxish, which used its psychic powers to make everyone pass out. Sun defeated Bruxish and saved Lillie, but ended up falling unconscious. Lillie and Sun later washed up on a beach on Ula'ula, where they were found by Acerola, who took the pair to the Aether House to recuperate. After waking up, Lillie properly introduced herself to Sun.
In A Photoshoot and the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart, Acerola took Lillie and Sun to the site of the former Thrifty Megamart and gave Sun the task of photographing the Totem Mimikyu that lived inside. Sun completed the trial by befriending Mimikyu and adding it to his team. Afterward, Sun learned that the Rotom Pokédex could communicate with Nebby and got the idea to help him speed up the process of calming the guardian deities. When Sun opened Lillie's bag, Nebby emerged in the form of the dormant and unresponsive Cosmoem. Afterwards, Lillie and Sun returned to Aether House at Acerola's request.
In Confusion and Monsters from Another World, Lillie and Sun were approached by Sina and Dexio, a pair of Trainers from the Kalos region. Sina and Dexio hired Sun to help them find the Zygarde Cells scattered across Alola. Sun accepted and received a Zygarde Cube to store the Cells he managed to find. Fearing that putting Lillie in danger would cause Nebby to use its powers again, Sun had Lillie stay behind and went to begin his search.
In The Truth and Island Kahuna Hapu, Lillie reunited with Gladion after he rescued her from an attacking Guzzlord on Route 10. To everyone else's surprise, Lillie and Gladion revealed themselves to be siblings and the children of Lusamine, the Aether Foundation president. Lillie told Gladion about how she stole Nebby from Lusamine to prevent her from abusing its power. When Lillie presented a Sun Flute she had also taken from Aether Paradise, Gladion decided that they should head towards the Poni Altar.
In Battle in Vast Poni Canyon, Lillie and Gladion traveled through Poni Island. Gladion revealed he planned on getting the Legendary Pokémon Solgaleo and Lunala to help him destroy the Ultra Beasts. As they traveled, a Xurkitree appeared and attacked them. Gladion and Silvally fought Xurkitree, but Nebby flew out of his hands and met with another Cosmoem. After Xurkitree was defeated, Lillie and Gladion met with Sun and Hapu. They learned that the Sun and Moon Flutes were a pair meant to played at the Poni Altar. The guardian deities of Alola appeared and took Sun and both flutes to the Poni Altar while Lillie, Gladion, and Hapu chased after them.
In Summon the Emissaries of the Moon and the Sun, Lillie and Gladion helped Anabel corner and capture Faba. At the Altar, Lillie and the others found that Sun and Moon managed to evolve Nebby and the other Cosmoem into Lunala and Solgaleo, respectively. Anabel received a call from Looker, who told her that a large number of Ultra Beasts made their way to Poni Island. While Moon, Gladion, Anabel, and Hapu fought off the beasts, Solgaleo was possessed by a Necrozma that appeared from a wormhole. Necrozma grabbed Sun and dragged him into the wormhole, forcing Moon and Lunala to chase after them.
Six months after the Poni Island incident, Lusamine disappeared while Faba had managed to take control of the Aether Foundation, running it like a dictatorship. In Adventure in the Dark Dimension, Wicke told Lillie and Gladion that Lusamine was found on Poni Island playing with a group of Ultra Beasts. Gladion suggested going to get Lusamine, but was told to stay behind as he hadn't fully recovered from the injuries he sustained from being exposed to the energy from Silvally's evolution. Wicke decided the best option was for her to return to Aether Paradise and gather information before making their next move.
In Madness!! Mother Lusamine!, on Exeggutor Island, an injured Guzma revealed that Lusamine had repeatedly fused with a Nihilego she captured. After learning from Mina that Mohn was still alive, Lillie and Gladion decided to meet with Lusamine and tell her in hopes that she'll return to normal. With encouragement from Gladion, Lillie changed into a new set of clothes and set off with Sina, Dexio, and Samson Oak to meet Lusamine at Mount Lanakila. Before they could leave, the four were interrupted by the appearance of Complete Forme Zygarde and Sun falling from a wormhole. After Sun was rescued, he led the others on a search for Moon and Lusamine, who also fell through the wormhole. Later, after finding Lusamine, Lillie confronted her mother, revealing to her that Mohn was still alive in Alola somewhere. Overwhelmed with emotion, Lusamine separated from Nihilego, but passed out immediately afterward. Sun tried getting Zygarde to take Lusamine to a hospital, only to notice that Necrozma had arrived.
In Tyrant!! The Fiendish Man!, Sun and Samson stayed behind to battle Necrozma while Sina and Dexio took Lillie and Lusamine to a safer place. They attempted to take an elevator to the base of the mountain, only for Dexio to be shot by a poison arrow fired by what appeared to be Moon. Realizing the assailant was an imposter, Lillie sent her Cutiefly to defeat the fake's Salazzle, revealing them to be Plumeria in disguise. Angered, Plumeria blamed Lillie, Lusamine, and the Aether Foundation for Team Skull's misfortunes and Guzma's disappearance. Lillie managed to calm Plumeria by revealing Guzma was alive and safe on Exeggutor Island, convincing her to give up.
In Finale!! The Battle Against the Other Dimension!, several months after Necrozma was defeated, Lillie came in contact with a researcher named Bill. As Bill had fused himself to a Pokémon once before, he agreed to help Lillie revive Lusamine, who had yet to wake up from her coma. Gladion was reluctant to let Lillie go alone, so she was joined by Professor Burnet.

Trivia
- Lillie shares several similarities with N:
- Both are characters who initially dislike Pokémon battles (but warm up to them later on).
- Both are met by the player throughout their journey.
- Both have a special connection to the game's Legendary mascot Pokémon.
- Both are the children of the game's primary antagonist.
- Both leave for a distant land at the end of the games they first appear in for personal purposes.
- Lillie's sunhat and dress makes her bear a resemblance to Nihilego, an Ultra Beast that her mother was obsessed with. With the information that Lusamine chooses the outfits that Lillie gets to wear,[6] it can be assumed that Lusamine has intentionally dressed Lillie to resemble the Pokémon.
- Furthermore, Nihilego's Pokédex entry from Pokémon Moon states that it is seen behaving like a young girl, furthering any written intent.
- The episode, The Homecoming Crown!, notes the similarities with a Nihilego and Lillie's anime counterpart.
- The Japanese names of Lillie's family and all the important members of the Aether Foundation are based on German words for plants.
