Cullen Calix
Cullen Calix (Japanese: ペニシリーナ Penicillina) is a minor character from Mewtwo Returns.
Cullen is a Pokémon naturalist who specialises in medicine. He made his way to Mount Quena to conduct research on Clarity Lake's environment and its alleged medicinal properties. He also escorted Domino, a Pokémon Institute employee, to the area and was unaware of her affiliations with Team Rocket.
Both he and Luna Carson help Ash, his friends and Mewtwo against Team Rocket. After seeing the baby Nidoqueen and Rhyhorn amongst the clone Pokémon alongside Luna's deep attachment to the area, Cullen developed a deeper respect for Lake Clarity. He decided to abandon his cutting edge research on Lake Clarity's healing properties, in fear of jeopardising the natural environment, and develop a synthetic version instead. Despite his personal resolution, Mewtwo wiped Cullen's memory of the day's events fearing his ambitions were still a threat.
After the incident, he decides to stay with Luna, seeing that the pair have a lot in common besides research.
