>>54232476Never understood this comparison. For the record I like both, but,
Lillie:
>Ran away from home>Not a pokemon trainer>Friendly and sociable despite being kind of shy>Begins the story completely lacking confidence>Ends her arc by standing up to her mother to put a stop to her madnessMarnie:
>Loves her home (even though it's a shithole)>Highly skilled trainer; was able to make it into the finals>Shy, not sociable, doesn't know how to talk to people>Begins the story being inexplicably massively popular with Team Yell>Ends her arc by becoming a gym leaderThere's, like... nothing overlapping here. I would almost say the writers/devs starts out by trying to make them deliberately opposite to one another but then got a little side-tracked. I also think Marnie was partly designed with the plan of being a female companion in the Anime, but they ended up not needing her due to the way the anime went.
>>54233272Shauna is closer to Lillie in personality than Marnie. Assuming you pick the male PC in X/Y, then game!Serena is probably the character who ends up being closest to Marnie.
