* {{Foil}}: To Professor Cerise from ''Blossoming Trail''.
** Professor Cerise never tried to contact Chloe when she went missing (although it's under the lens that he didn't know it was possible since Goh never said anything about it). Lusamine ''immediately'' asks where Gladion is after he's been missing for a week.
** Professor Cerise's funds mostly come from donations, governments, and so on, and recent events cause those funds to take a hit. Lusamine, meanwhile, has so much money that even if the AbsurdlyHighStakesGame she has with Lillie ends in her loss, she won't need to worry about it.
** It takes a lot of probing and trauma to get Professor Cerise to realize what a bad father he's been towards his children, and a big spectacle is made out of it. Lusamine realizes and tries to atone for these mistakes with little fanfare.
** She contrasts [[spoiler:Amelia]] as both [[spoiler:lost someone they loved -- Mohn was sucked into an Ultra Wormhole, Alrick died young in a motocross accident -- but both had different ways of coping through it. Amelia entered the Train and wreaked havoc for 33 years to recreate her life with him, whereas Lusamine got into her work and did her best to raise her children properly. Lusamine is blond in a white dress, Amelia is a brunette with a black cloak/grey suit. Lusamine is in her 40s, Amelia is in her 60s.]]
** After ''Voyage of Wisteria'', she's seen as one to Goh's parents as she at least ''tries'' to see a work-life balance for her children while Goh's parents don't have a live ''outside'' of work.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Spent years going without any professional help dealing with her phobia. Lusamine was blamed for not doing anything about this; Lillie herself blames Gladion for not revealing what he knew sooner. Dulse points out that ''she'' is also at fault -- after all, she had the chance to tell her mother about her problems, so why did she never take that chance?

* UngratefulBastard: PlayedWith; Gladion sees her as one after their fight, as he helped jog her memories with Silvally. Problem is, that only came after years of him intentionally keeping her LockedOutOfTheLoop, and he would have ''continued'' doing so if not for Cosmog, or Faba's machinations.

* WidowWoman: While never outright stated, her husband [[spoiler: being sucked into an Ultra Wormhole]] doesn't sound like something anybody can ''survive'', meaning she's all alone in raising their children.

* ParentalIssues: She and Lusamine don't see eye-to-eye that often, though Lusamine is working to bridge the gap and Lillie cares enough about her to tell her that she's taking too much of a risk with herself (with that risk involving the very job that keeps Lusamine busy as much as it does). Dulse even points out that most of Lillie's problems could've been softened if she ''told'' Lusamine about them.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Spent years going without any professional help dealing with her phobia. Lusamine was blamed for not doing anything about this; Lillie herself blames Gladion for not revealing what he knew sooner.

* TheBet: Makes one with Lillie regarding Gladion and how long she might take to forgive him. If Gladion and Lillie are still on bad terms in six months, she'll step down from her job. If they reconcile, Lillie cosplays with her at a convention.

* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Lusamine became a textbook {{Workaholic}} after [[spoiler: her husband was taken by an Ultra Wormhole]], leaving her with very little time for Lillie and Gladion.

* {{Workaholic}}: She became this after [[spoiler: Nohm was taken by an Ultra Wormhole into Ultra Space]], and given what she says later, she barely managed to strike a balance between this and her children.

* UncertainDoom: He went through an Ultra Wormhole into Ultra Space, and was never heard from again. Given the kind of place that the Ultra Space is, he's most likely dead.

* IgnoranceIsBliss: Blissfully thinks that Gladion is out traveling to complete the Trials instead of being on a horrifying therapy train...oh will he have a ''horrible'' wake-up call in a few months.

* MeaningfulName: Kalama means "torch" which reflects him being a fire-user and how his Alolan Marowak wields his bone like a fire dancer.

* CutenessProximity: States that Ilima's Eevee is adorable and that she wants one of her own.

* AdultFear: You have to wonder if Lusamine's wackiness is a coping mechanism: her husband [[spoiler: was sucked in by an Ultra Wormhole]] and is out of the picture, leaving her to raise both their children alone. And now Gladion's stuck in an interdimensional Train that nobody except Mallow knowing ''anything'' about and without the ability to contact him.

* AccompliceByInaction: As much as she doesn't want to admit it, Dulse correctly points out that Lillie's just as responsible for her situation with the Nihilego, since while Gladion kept his fair share of secrets, Lillie was just as secretive about what was bothering her. And unlike Gladion, she doesn't have a half-baked excuse to justify it.

* DumbBlonde: Lillie's hair is almost as white as snow, and while not ''intellectually'' dumb, her focus on her spite and anger causes her to take a few questionable choices, like the one that started this entire story.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: This ''entire story'' and the situation of Gladion being sent onto the Infinity Train is her fault because she refused to take Mallow's warnings about the orange lilies.

[[folder:The Ultra Recon Squad]]
A group from Ultra Megalopolis who have come to investigate the Ultra Beast sightings in the Alola Region.

** Mallow and Lillie were friends in canon, but they didn't get that focus. In here, their relationship gets a little bit of focus, and it's as strained as you'd expect from a spiteful brat who won't let go of her anger and a former Passenger who won't open up about the nature of the Train.

** She also hates Gladion for effectively abandoning her all those years, and yet she effectively abandons him as well when he goes missing and she convinces herself that she doesn't care because he'll now know how ''she'' felt.
