Lily, Diddy's mother

Lily is also owned by @lady-zephyrine

Lily was the mother of Diddy (as well as the oldest of 5 siblings). A seasoned trainer in her own right, she was a kind soul who inherited her grandfather's way with pokemon, but was never afraid to play rough when the situation called for it, be it with the pokemon or their trainers. Her passion for pokemon and people lead to her pursuing a career as a pokemon ranger, tho she didn't feel like she had the time to delve into it as much as she would like after her son was born.

But... then Osprey disappeared. She made an arrangement with their neighbors---friends of theirs---to take care of Diddy as she assisted in the searches across the Slumbering Weald. Lily's prior experiences helped during the initial searches, when it had been at its most hectic. Six months would go by, and no one found anything more than his pokemon, and the searches slowed gradually.

So, Lily kept her arrangement with the neighbors, picking up jobs from the rangers to help keep them afloat. Her supervisors worried for her, and made sure she took time off so that she didn't run herself ragged and was able to see her child. While she heeded their words, she also occasionally used this time to comb the Slumbering Weald, trying desperately to find any trace of her husband.

On one such day, she dropped Diddy off and promised to be back in the morning. 24 hours came and went, and by midnight the following night, the police and the rangers had been notified. Like Osprey, her last traces were in the Slumbering Weald, but unlike him, she was found, even she had perished. No cause was ever found, not even a single scratch.

Lily was born in Unova, with a long list of ancestry in other regions, but moved to Hulbury in Galar just before marrying Osprey. Although she is gone, the tragedy of her and her family remain a haunting thought in the lives of the people who knew her.

Her team consisted of:

Daedrys (Hydreigon, male, Quirky nature)

Flora, (Lilligant, female, Hasty nature)

Aubrey (Tinkaton, female, Jolly nature)

Mintaka (Minior, yellow forme, Sassy nature)

Bacon (Centiskorch, male, Lax nature)

Gilgamesh (Samurott, female, Hardy nature)

Some additional fun facts:

-Her team was split across her parents, oldest brother, and grandfather after her passing. No matter who landed where, they are all well-taken care of and mostly happy.

-The eye highlight being missing from her alternate artwork was an unintentional mistake, but I think it adds a slight bit of symbolism.

-Lily would often take her youngest siblings to Route 16 just outside of Lostlorn Forest in Unova to watch wild pokemon. She would later do something similar in the Wild Area of Galar with Diddy.

-It wasn't uncommon for someone to refer to her as a petilil (as a child) or lilligant (as an adult), if only for how close her name was to them.

-Lily quite enjoyed cherri berries, and always had a vast stash of them on hand for both the paralysis status and to consume as a snack.

Tell us how you feel about seagulls. Are they pure hubris? Do they have thoughts? Just how affectionately smelly are they? I mean this all lovingly towards them. They are pests in the way that they are rascals. How you look to a fictional character like Oh You!!! Shaking my fist at you!!! I love you, you rascal!!!

:Oc!! [Well, disclaimer first, I'm not an ornithologist, just a Bird Fan, plus going off of stuff that I've learned in the past 4 years or so! ...Plus some assumptions, probably, so please don’t take my ramblings as fact ;v; ]

Hm! I've interacted with... maybe only one, up close and in person, that I can think of... I never smelled them, since I didn't wanna mess with them anymore than they already had been, but I'd guess they'd have that.... odd, kinda musty bird smell that other birds I have Sniffed had... (Though, Ospreys have their own kinda smell, due to... Fish, so many fish... I am very familiar with the smell of an Osprey)

They've definitely got some thoughts rattlin' around in their noggins! Are they the most complex thoughts? Maybe not, but they don't have to be! Gulls are just gonna keep doing what they're doing! Birds in general aren't all that great about understanding consequences or cause and effect, it seems (with more intelligent birds like corvids and such being exceptions, maybe..?) but I'd think that Gulls get extra attention to their goofiness and supposed Large Amounts of Hubris due to their scrawny selves... In a "How can you fit so much Bastard into one small creature!!" (affectionate/derogatory depending on the person and their possible experiences with the birds) sort of way? :Oc?

But Gulls are cool! They're funny little guys! They play their part in the ecosystem just like any other animal, I love hearing their calls when I do, and I'm certain they’re not necessarily trying to ruin your day when they take your food! You’re just competition for food, just like anyone else, and they’re likely desensitized to people and lack fear of them due to exposure, or people have fed them too much, so “Oh, human holding food, that’s fine to take--”  (Note, I do not support feeding wild birds, it gets them too used to people and messes them up... though, I’m fairly certain Pigeons would be an exception to this due to being domesticated and all.....? Again, I’m not an expert ^^;; )
