Lillie (Japanese: リーリエ Lilie) is a character introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon.

In the games

Lillie is described as a mysterious girl who is central to the plot of Pokémon Sun and Moon. She assists Professor Kukui for personal reasons. She dislikes Pokémon battles, but loves to read.

Lillie is first seen attempting to flee the Aether Paradise three months prior to the beginning of the player's adventure. Just when she is surrounded, she is Teleported by a mysterious force, later revealed to be the Pokémon hiding in her bag, Cosmog, which she nicknamed Nebby (Japanese: ほしぐもちゃん Hoshigumo-chan). 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.

The player first meets Lillie on the Mahalo Trail, where she watches helplessly as Nebby is being attacked by wild Spearow on a unstable rope bridge. Despite not yet having a Pokémon of their own, the player steps in to protect Nebby, and is in turn assisted and recognized by Tapu Koko.

Nebby

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, 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.


Nebby's known moves are Teleport and Splash.

"Really? You want to go up to the ruins? I don't know what you hope to find there..."
Mahalo Trail
"You can't come out! We'll get in trouble if anyone sees you!"
"Ah..."
What's wrong?: "H-help..."
Who are you?: "Never mind me... You have to help it! Please!"
"Save Nebby! Those Spearow are attacking it! But...but I'm too afraid to go out there... My legs feel like they might give out..."
"Oh... Oh, thank goodness! You tried to use your power again... didn't you? Oh, Nebby... You know what happened last time you used it. You couldn't move for ages after that. I don't want to see you like that again! No... I shouldn't say that. Im sorry, Nebby. I know you were trying to save me that time. And I couldn't even help you in return... What... What is that? A sparkling...stone? It feels almost warm somehow... Please, forgive me... I am so grateful to you for helping us out of that dangerous spot. I think this stone should belong to you. Please... Don't tell anybody about this... About seeing Nebby... It's... it's a secret, OK? Come on. Into the bag Nebby."
"Um... Im afraid we might get attacked by wild Pokémon or... or something. I know its too much to ask it, but... Do you think you could see us back to town?"
Iki Town
"Oh...um...yes! You can call me Lillie. So...you're also one of the professor's acquaintances?"
"Oh, um... Yes Kahuna Hala... Nebby was being attacked by Spearow on the Plank Bridge when this <boy/girl> helped it get away... But the bridge collapsed, and I thought both of them might fall to the bottom of the ravine... But that was when the island's guardian deity swooped in to save them!"

"What a beautiful view... I wish I could share it with you."
"O-oh... Hello."
Regardless of choice: "Uh-umm... Professor Kukui is helping me take care of my Pokémon, and... he’s waiting for me, so I have to be going. I hope to see you again sometime."

Lillie in the anime

Lillie first appeared in Alola to New Adventure!. She is a student at the Pokémon School of Melemele Island and one of Ash's classmates. She loves studying Pokémon but is hesitant-to-afraid to physically interact with them.

Trivia

  • Lillie's hairstyle and clothing cause her to bear a strong resemblance to Nihilego. This is partially explained through dialogue in the games stating that her mother decides what she wears and Lillie herself does not have any choice. Since Lusamine idolizes Nihilego, it seems logical that she dressed her daughter like the Pokémon.
