Sometime before the events of the film, Molly's mother disappeared, supposedly because of [[Spencer Hale|Spencer]]'s research (in the Japanese version, her absence was never directly explained, although guidebooks released with the movie revealed that she had been hospitalized before the events of the film). Spencer was left to care for Molly, but because his job requires an undying commitment, she was often left under the care of the servants and housekeepers. | Sometime before the events of the film, Molly's mother disappeared, supposedly because of [[Spencer Hale|Spencer]]'s research (in the Japanese version, her absence was never directly explained, although guidebooks released with the movie revealed that she had been hospitalized before the events of the film).

With her mother having disappeared several years prior (or having been hospitalized, depending on the version) and [[Spencer Hale|her father]] busy with his work schedule, Molly had become increasingly lonely and withdrawn. Her father's own disappearance only exacerbated this loneliness. The {{OBP|Unown|M03}} gave Molly the opportunity to live out her wildest fantasies and idealized reality, which appeared to have originated from the fairy-tales her father read to her, twisted together with her strong emotions. From a psychological standpoint, Molly's decision to have [[Greenfield]] become a crystal wasteland and surround herself with Pokémon was indicative of her distrust for people. | With her mother having disappeared several years prior (or having been hospitalized, depending on the version) and [[Spencer Hale|her father]] busy with his work schedule, Molly had become increasingly lonely and withdrawn.
