My number one moment in the Pokémon franchise is when you first enter Lavender Town.
While I could specify the fight with Marowak as the best moment in the franchise, I’m choosing something else. It’s a tragic story, and it doesn’t shy away about themes of death.

When you reach the top of the tower you can fight against the Marowak’s ghost, and free its soul. Talking to some of the townsfolk reveals the story of a Marowak, sacrificing herself to save her baby. While that may have streamlined the games, it also loses what made Sun and Moon arguably great in the first place. Unfortunately, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon decided to cut back on the cutscenes, including this one.
This scene makes Lillie a fully-realized character and makes her one of the most developed in the franchise. It’s another long cutscene in a game filled with long cutscenes, but this felt the most deserving. Lillie and the main trainer travel to Ultra Space to rescue her, and it is in that moment that Lillie stands up to her mother and calls her out on her bad behavior. Lusamine has gone mad and has merged herself with an Ultra Beast, weird Pokémon that come from another dimension. She starts off shy, yet her entire character arc culminates when she confronts her mother, Lusamine, in Ultra Space. Most of the narrative surrounds her conflict with her mother, and her desire to learn more about the mysterious Pokémon she has nicknamed Nebby. Since the main playable character needs to be a blank state for gamers to control, the character Lillie serves more like the main protagonist of Sun and Moon than the leading trainer does. It was more character center than previous games, and the characters were likable. With that said, I love the story of the original Sun and Moon.
