Molayne was an intellectual young man who could be laidback and reserved, but he could also be mischievous with people he's close to. He was around the same age as [[Professor Kukui]], as the two of them took the island challenge at the same time and adventured together. The two remained close friends afterwards. Molayne was one of the few people who were aware of Kuku's secret identity of the Masked Royal, and he would often tease him about it and hint at the identity to others. Molayne acted as an island captain for Ula'ula Island for some time, and he eventually passed the title on to his younger cousin Sophocles. This was a rare example of a succeeding captain being chosen by someone other than the local kahuna, which was apparently possible due to "unusual circumstances" on Ula'ula (possibly referring to [[Nanu]]'s hands-off style as a kahuna). Molayne and Sophocles lived together at the Hokulani Observatory, which was run by Molayne. They collaborated together on scientific projects and inventions, as well as playing video games together. The two of them were close enough that they nicknamed each other "Big Mo" and "Soffy". Molayne also ended up running the PC system for Alola at some point. | Molayne was an intellectual young man who could be laidback and reserved, but he could also be mischievous with people he's close to.

Molayne teased Kukui by addressing him as "Royal". In ''Sun''/''Moon'' only, Molayne challenged Elio/Slene to a battle first to determine if they were ready for this trial, and he was defeated. He then helped Sophocles to run his trial, which consisted of trying to shut down the malfunctioning security system in ''Sun''/''Moon'' or preparing some [[Charjabug]] to power Sophocoles's machine in ''Ultra Sun''/''Ultra Moon''. Molayne also have Steelium Z to the trainer and showed them the accompanying pose. He did this prior to Sophocles's trial in ''Ultra Sun''/''Ultra Moon'' or after the trial was completed in ''Sun''/''Moon''. In the aftermath of Sophocles's trial, Molayne gave the trainer something that Kukui had dropped to give back to him - a Masked Royal mask. |
| − | In all versions, Molayne attended the festivities that were held at Iki Town on Melemele Island to celebrate Elio/Selene becoming Alola's first Pokémon League champion. In ''Sun''/''Moon'', Molayne could appear as a challenger to the Elite Four who Elio/Selene could battle in a Title Defense match. In ''Ultra Sun''/''Ultra Moon'', Molayne instead became one of the inaugural members of the Elite Four and so had to be defeated by Elio/Selene when they took on the Pokémon League.

In that chapter, he was working with Sophocles and [[Clemont]] on a Sync Pair Pinger, which was supposed to attract powerful sync pairs. It was unclear if it was working correctly, and Molayne ultimately chose to join [[Scottie/Bettie]]'s team to collect data for the invention and as an excuse to battle again. Molayne also made appearances in other events, including the "Give and Take" Legendary Event, where he helped Sophocles, Clemont and [[Volkner]] to deactivate [[Lysandre]]'s weapon. |
