He wears a blue jacket with red stripes around his fore-arms, a teal collared shirt with two stripes tied in a knot, some black pants and shoes. He also has hexagon-shaped glasses with a grey frame. He also has a Z-Ring equipped.
Personality[]
Molayne is a determined researcher, who helps out Sophocles, his cousin. He also shows a bit of bravery when fighting Ultra Beasts, by using his Z-Ring.
Etymology[]
Molayne and his Japanese name, Maarein, both come from mullein, an alternative name to the plant genus known as verbascum. It could also include molybdenum, a metallic element.
Biography[]
Professor Kukui and Molayne were one of the people that completed the Island Challenge. However, nobody else took on the Island Challenge years after.[1]
Sun & Moon arc[]
Molayne was at Hokulani Observatory on Ula'ula Island when he was contacted by Kiawe. Kiawe explained to him that the mysterious creatures, the Ultra Beasts, have been set loose and were attacking the cities, hence why people have been evacuated to the observatory. Though the Ultra Beasts went to Malie City, Molayne understood the Ultra Beasts could attack the observatory. Sophocles arrived, and promised he would fight the Ultra Beasts using the new device he crafted, and told Molayne, referring to him as "Big Mo", that he'd protect the people.[2]
Molayne helped in battling the Ultra Beasts on Route 10 (Alola). He and Professor Kukui watched Gladion taking on Celesteela and Guzzlord with his Type: Null, and were amazed how much power the latter had to easily defeat the Ultra Beasts.[3] Nanu visited the group, but was disappointed to see there were no Ultra Beasts left for him to fight. He asked if Tapu Bulu appeared, but Molayne and Professor Kukui denied that.[4]
Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon arc[]
Sophocles later worked with Molayne on redesigning a machine, which was used to summon Totem Pokémon, into an airship, shaped like a Vikavolt.[5]
At Hokulani Observatory, Sophocles and Molayne led the group to the Vikavolt airship. Sophocles was quite prideful of the work he and Molayne did. However, the group admitted they were skeptic of it, so Sophocles forced everyone to enter by having Togedemaru electrocute them. Inside, the group revised that the crack in the sky had been opened at Mount Lanakila, and suspected that Sun and Moon came out. Molayne reminded they would have to fight the Ultra Beasts, but exclaimed the importance of rescuing Sun and Moon out of there. Suddenly, the airship got hit. Mallow told that she knew it would crash, but Sophocles pointed out they were attacked by the Ultra Beasts, and the Aether Foundation employees.[5]
With the arrival of the four Guardian Deities, Sophocles and Molayne went out of the aircraft and started to battle the Ultra Beasts. They confronted two Nihilego, and had their Alolan Dugtrio use Corkscrew Crash and Togedemaru use Gigavolt Havoc Z-Moves, which defeated the two Nihilego. After reporting their success, the duo went to fight even more Nihilego.[6]
