Luna is a character from Mewtwo Returns. She is a Pokémon researcher and a part-time worker for a bus company.

Biography[]

Luna met Ash and his friends just as they missed the monthly bus. She invited them to her lodge, where she gave them a drink of spring water and suggested they take a boat down Purity River. When that didn't work due to Misty's fear of Bug Pokémon, Brock suggested they climb Mount Quena. However, Luna warned them that Mount Quena was the highest mountain in the Johto region, with weather conditions too harsh for tourists to explore.

Later, Luna was greeted by Cullen Calix, a famous researcher of medicine, and Domino, who worked for the Pokémon Institute. After Cullen explained he came to Mt. Quena to explore the secrets of Clarity Lake and its healing water, Luna was concerned that many researchers would come from everywhere and end up destroying the place.

Afterwards, Team Rocket suddenly showed up, where they stole Ash's Pikachu and blasted off in their rocket-powered balloon. As a result, Luna decided to lead everyone up Mt. Quena in an attempt to rescue Pikachu. As they climbed the mountain using a pulley, Team Rocket's balloon zoomed by. With the rope getting snagged onto their basket, the balloon took Luna and everyone with it. Domino then revealed herself as a Team Rocket member, 009 Domino (The Black Tulip) and popped the balloon, sending Luna, Ash, Misty, Brock, Togepi, and Cullen into Clarity Lake.

After getting to shore, Luna spotted a dead log and suggested to build a canoe out of it. Ash did so using Bulbasaur and Chikorita, and they rowed to the island in the middle of Clarity Lake. They discovered a spring in the center and found that it was the source of the lake's purity, along with some baby Nidoqueen and Rhyhorn. They left when Luna said that the parents could get worried and that Pikachu still needed to be found. Unfortunately, they were soon ambushed and taken hostage by Domino and her Team Rocket members.

Soon afterwards, Pikachu and Pikachutwo turned up, injured by Domino earlier in the day. Luna used the vial of spring water that Cullen had collected earlier and revived them both. Domino then locked them all in a cage, but an explosion caused by the Bug Pokémon freed them. Luna and Cullen then rushed back to the spring, worried that it was contaminated. To their relief, the spring was still intact.

Luna then witnessed Ash bringing an injured Mewtwo to the spring. Despite the fact that Cullen expressed his displeasure, Ash threw it in, which revived its strength and allowed it to stop Giovanni, who had come to claim the spring as his own. Mewtwo then teleported the entire spring underground, hiding it from Giovanni's clutches. Cullen was disappointed that the spring was gone, but Luna gave him a sample vial, which gave him the idea of creating a synthetic version. Luna and Cullen then witnessed a flock of Butterfree scattering dust on the Team Rocket agents, including Giovanni and Domino, which made them forget about Mewtwo and everything else.

A couple days later, the bus arrived back at Mount Quena to give Cullen a ride to the city, but he decided not to go after discovering that he and Luna had more in common besides research.
