huh...? most Pokemon villains have been just generically "evil," in a "I want to take over/destroy the world!!" way.

Lusamine is similar, but also outright told her own children they were worthless shit, repeatedly made fun of them, and was unapologetically abusive. I was really anticipating the game would explain that all away with "she was possessed!" or otherwise not under her own control, and they... kind of (?) did, but mostly it came down to her being terrible.

They explained she was parasitized by... Something that emits a neurotoxin that removes inhibitions and reinforces stronger traits. There's a reason for the scene where Lusamine, free of Nihilego, asks when her daughter became so beautiful for... Standing up to her, of all things.

But she only became possessed after going to the other world in the middle of the game, wasn't she? Unless I was supposed to pick up the idea that she'd been possessed earlier than that (like way back in the whole early stages of her experiments) which I wondered about, but I couldn't find anything that made it clear enough that that's what happened rather than it happening during the game's events. And that's a shame because then that random change of heart about Lillie after her defeat would have made sense.

We don't know that. I got the impression, since things suddenly began getting so weird after her husband vanished, that she came into contact with a Nihilego back then. There's implications, given the bed scene or how Lil talks about the rain incident with her mom, that Lusamine was actually a decent person once. Her children definitely have some fond memories of her in early childhood. So I think it would have to be that she came into contact with Nihilego back then. It's the only thing that makes sense of her weirdness.

Different anon. It still doesn't excuse her bullshit. Nilhego wanted to get back home. That has nothing to do with Lusamine being an abusive shitstain.
