Lilian is the sister of [[Vivian Meridian|Vivian]].
'''Lilian Meridian''' (Japanese: '''リリアン''' ''Lilian'') is a recurring character who appeared in the [[Pokémon anime]]. She is the [[Contest announcer|master of ceremonies]] of [[Kanto]] [[Pokémon Contest]]s and the younger sister of [[Vivian Meridian]]. She first appeared in ''[[AG143|The Saffron Con]]''.

==History==
*[[Espeon]]
[[File:Lillian Casual Clothes.png|180px|thumb|left|Lilian in casual clothing]]
Lilian debuted in ''[[AG143|The Saffron Con]]'', where she was seen testing the lighting equipment of the [[Saffron City]] [[Contest Hall]]. She commanded her {{p|Espeon}} to display its [[move]]s to make sure the stage lights were working properly. The performance was watched by {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, who were visiting the Saffron Hall so {{an|May}} could have a look at the stage. May initially mistook her for [[Vivian Meridian|Vivian]], but she revealed that she is actually Vivian's younger sister, and that people often confuse the two of them.


=External links=
Later, Lilian witnessed May and her {{TP|May|Squirtle}} sending [[James]] and {{MTR}} blasting off after their attempt to steal the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} belonging to the {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s who were entering the Saffron Contest. The next day she encountered May in the lobby of the Saffron Hall and, upon noticing that she was sad, asked her what had happened. After hearing that May had been misinformed about using her [[Hoenn]] [[Contest Pass]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]] and the registration deadline, Lilian asked the clerk in the registration desk to issue May a Kanto [[Contest Pass]] and to accept her entry as there would be no Pokémon Contest if it were not for May rescuing the participants' Pokémon.

{{animestub}}
In ''[[AG144|A Hurdle for Squirtle]]'', during the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the Saffron Contest, Lilian issued both [[Jessie|Jessebella]] and Harley a {{wp|Penalty card|yellow card}} as neither of them was giving commands to their Pokémon. This subtracted half the points from both Coordinators' scores and set the battle in motion, as Harley subsequently asked his {{p|Ariados}} to use {{m|String Shot}} on [[Jessie's Wobbuffet|Jessebella's Wobbuffet]].


{{Animecharacters}}
Following May's loss to Harley in the final round of the {{to|Wisteria}} Contest in ''[[AG160|Harley Rides Again]]'', Lilian informed her that a Pokémon Contest was scheduled to take place on [[Chrysanthemum Island]]. She also handed May an unsigned letter from [[Brianna]].

While hosting the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], which was held at [[Indigo Plateau]] and took place from ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'' to ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]'', Lilian had the help of a reporter named Jessadia, actually [[Team Rocket]]'s Jessie [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|in disguise]]. During the competition, Lilian was able to interact with her sister Vivian, who had been invited to join the [[Contest Judge|panel of judges]] as a special guest judge.
 
==Character==
[[File:Lilian Saffron Ribbon.png|thumb|220px|Lilian showing the Saffron Ribbon]]
Lilian is the younger sister of [[Vivian Meridian|Vivian]], the [[Contest announcer|master of ceremonies]] of [[Hoenn]] [[Pokémon Contest]]s. Although the two look very similar and share the same occupation, they are drastically different in terms of personality. While Vivian is classy and graceful, Lilian has a bubbly and cheerful personality. According to Lilian, even if they dress so differently from each other, they are still mistaken for one another.
 
Lilian is responsible for hosting all of the Kanto Pokémon Contests sanctioned by the [[Pokémon Activities Committee]] and the [[Kanto Grand Festival]] as well. As such, she has appeared in a number of {{cat|episodes with Contests}} during the latter part of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]''. Lilian's style as an announcer is similar to that of a {{wp|Sports commentator|sportscaster}} and her catchphrase is ''"Let's get busy!"'' in the English [[dub]] and ''"Here we go!"'' in the original Japanese version, which she will say when kicking off the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]] and each battle in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]].
