===Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission===
Lunick is a major character in [[Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission]]. He is a passionate, nature-loving Rank 10 Pokémon Ranger of the Ranger Union who enjoys helping people.

Lunick first appears arriving in [[Fall City]] to fix a fire that had started in a building. Using the help of several Pokémon, he rescues a girl named [[Iyori]] that was trapped inside but gets dumped by a girl he was dating in the process. After putting out the flames, Lunick is contacted by his co-worker, Solana, who informs him that the Ranger Leaders, Spenser, Joel, and Elita have failed in their mission to capture a {{p|Deoxys}} and have been defeated.

After the Ranger Leaders were taken back to be healed, Lunick and Solana review the battle from Joel's Capture Styler. Soon after, Professor Hastings arrives and gives the two Rangers the mission to finish what the Ranger Leaders had started and capture Deoxys.

Lunick and Solana capture several Pokémon to prepare for their fight against Deoxys and go to [[Lyra Forest]] to confront it. Soon after, they are attacked by Deoxys who quickly changes form and runs into [[Krokka Tunnel]]. Fearing what would happen if Deoxys gets to [[Fall City]], Lunick uses a Grass Poké Assist to trap it in tall grass, only for it to cut it down and escape.

They are quickly surrounded by the [[Go-Rock Quads]], Tiffany, Garret, Clyde, and Billy who have defeated the final Ranger Leader, Cameron, and taken the {{p|Manaphy}} Pokémon Egg he had found. The two release themselves from Deoxys's grip and Solana goes after Tiffany, who had been sent to take the Egg to the Quads' secret hideout, leaving Lunick to face the other three alone. 

Lunick attempts to use various Pokémon Assists to try and stop Deoxys, only for it to break free from each one. Billy sends a {{p|Tyranitar}} to send Lunick flying and steps on his Capture Styler, crushing it to pieces. As the battle continues, Lunick realizes that Billy, Garret, and Clyde use their Super Styler instruments to change Deoxys into its Speed, Defense, and Attack Formes whenever they play them. Garret has his {{p|Scyther}} lift Lunick into the air while they use their Super Stylers to try and steal Lunick's Minun.

Lunick, after witnessing Solana's battle against Tiffany, breaks free from Scyther's grip and uses Minun to soften their fall. Lunick has Minun break the Super Stylers Capture Lines, turning Deoxys back into its Normal Forme and allowing Lunick to capture it. After freeing Deoxys, Lunick reveals to the Quads that when he was held by Scyther, Solana sent him the message "Normal", which gave Lunick to force Deoxys back into its Normal Forme, allowing him to capture and free it.

Defeated, the Quads make their escape, but not before swearing revenge on Lunick and Solana. Afterward, Solana and Lunick take Cameron and the Egg back to Professor Hastings's lab. Due to Fiore not having Trainers, everyone decides to send the Manaphy Egg to the Sinnoh region to find a proper Trainer to take care of it. Soon after, Lunick and Solana leave on another mission to stop a {{p|Grimer}} outbreak in the Fall City [[Waterworks]].
