Walkthrough: After Gladion having made the connection that The Aether Foundation has been working with Team Skull to retrieve Cosmog, you, him and Hau will all go to Aether Paradise to find and save Lillie and Cosmog. As you search for them, you will be sent on a wild goose chase because of Faba, who is also in on the scheme, thus causing you to have to Battle a multitude of both Aether Employees and Team Skull Members, as well as Faba himself on two different occasions. Luckily Hau and Gladion will assist you with this. (Hau will even give you another Max Revive in the Labs Area.)
You will begin on the Docks of Aether, eventually going to the Secret Labs before having to head up the levels to again find Faba to obtain the key to access the basement. Wicke, the only person not apart of what's being orchestrated, will lend you her knowledge on Cosmog and its ability to summon Ultra Beasts. After finally obtaining the key, you will be able to use the elevator to reach the levels inaccessible at first. After such, you will have to Battle Guzma before finding Lusamine.
After finding Lusamine, she will verbally chastise her children in her current madness for stealing her beautiful Pokemon, for trying to stop her from being with her lovely Ultra Beasts. Ultimately, Lusamine will use Cosmog's power to summon the Ultra Beast from before, even if it means Cosmog might die in the process. After such, as Cosmog has changed to a much more motionless form, you will Battle Lusamine in hopes of stopping her. However, even after defeating her, the Ultra Beast will disappear back through the Wormhole, and Guzma and Lusamine will join it.

With nothing left to do, the four of you (Lillie, Hau, Gladion and Yourself) will spend the night at Aether and try to regroup in the morning. When you awake, Lillie will have finally worked up enough courage to finally wear some of the clothes she had purchased during her journey, as well as sport a brand New hairstyle (still having Cosmoem Nebby in her new bag).
Gladion will come and give you a Masterball for your help, as well as give Lillie one of two flutes that he thinks will help you summon the Legendary Pokemon that could help you get to Ultra Space to help save their mother. Hau will go his separate way to finish his Island Challenge in order to get stronger, while Gladion takes you and Lillie to Poni Island to get some help from their Kahuna.
