Summary
Minior Blue Meteor is a dual-type Rock/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
Type: Rock/Flying
Abilities:
- Shields Down: When its HP is above 50%, Minior is in its Meteor Form with higher defenses. Once HP falls below 50%, it changes to Core Form, boosting its Speed and offensive stats but lowering its defenses.
Physical Characteristics:
- In its Meteor Form, Minior is a spherical Pokémon encased in a hard, rocky shell that is primarily gray with craters.
- When the shell breaks, it reveals its Core Form, which for Minior Blue Meteor, displays a bright blue core.
- It has small, star-shaped eyes and a pair of five-pointed star arms in its Core Form.
Behavior and Habitat:
- Minior is found in the upper atmosphere, where it forms and gathers debris around its core.
- Upon getting heavier from accumulated debris, it falls to the planet's surface.
- It typically inhabits high-altitude areas like mountains after descending, often seen in Alola's Mt. Hokulani.
In Battle:
- Minior is notable for its strategic transformation during battle due to its Shields Down ability.
- It excels as a versatile attacker in its Core Form, with increased Speed and offensive stats.
- Common moves include Power Gem, Acrobatics, and Shell Smash to maximize its offensive potential.
- Strong against Bug, Fire, Flying, and Ice types, but weak to Electric, Ice, Rock, Steel, and Water types.
Evolution:
- Minior does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon.
Interesting Facts:
- Minior's core color is determined at random when encountered, with blue being one of the possible variations.
- The concept of Minior draws inspiration from meteors and the protective layers surrounding a core.
- Its ability to change forms during battle makes it a unique strategic option for trainers.
- Minior's core, once revealed, is said to be as beautiful and mesmerizing as gemstones.
