Kellyn appears in the comic based on Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia that is posted on the Pokémon Japanese Website. Kellyn is a Top Rank Ranger and his partner Pokémon is a Pachirisu.

Kellyn collects all volumes of The Almia Times, pieces of Capture Stylers, and Capture Discs. He is very picky about his collection of Ranger things and keeps them all clean and organized. Kate got part of his collection dirty with her fingerprints and he became furious and forced her to wash her hands.
