Love Interest[]

Sun/Elio/Moon/Selene/Player[]

Lille encounters the player shortly after she comes to Alola. When Nebby is attacked by a flock of Spearow, the player bravely steps in and defends it, despite not having any Pokemon at the time. Lillie then stays by the player's side during several key moments in the game such as during the island trials and during encounters with staff from Aether Paradise. In these moments she heals the player's pokemon after any battles.

With her mother's corruption and her brother's absence, Lillie sees the player as the only person she can really trust. This culminates in her letting Nebby go with the player once Lusamine is defeated, as Lillie has seen that the player treats their pokemon with love and care.

After the Pokemon League, Lillie decides she's going to the Kanto region to become a Pokemon Trainer so that she can eventually battle alongside the player rather than just tag-along. While Lillie is away the playable character keeps thinking of her, for example, they visit Lillie's bedroom and Faba comments how much the playable character really misses her.

In Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon the two of them are more connected from stopping Raindow Team Rocket to Lillie promising the playable character their Pokemon battle after she clears the Island Challenge and defeats the Elite Four.

Hau[]

Lillie meets Hau shortly after meeting the player character. Hau awkwardly tries to flirt with her whenever they meet, but is too shy to follow through on it. His interest in Lillie is also shown in how he's visibly distressed when she leaves at the end of the game. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Hau doesn't mourn for Lillie, because she stays in Alola while her brother leaves for his Pokemon Journey by taking the boat.
