Summary
Minior Green Meteor is a dual Rock/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
Type: Rock / Flying
Abilities:
- Shields Down: This ability allows Minior to change forms. It starts in its Meteor Form with high defenses, and when its HP falls below half, its Core is revealed, boosting its offensive stats.
Physical Characteristics:
- Minior is a spherical Pokémon with a hard, rocky outer shell. In its Meteor Form, it is predominantly a dull, rocky color.
- When the shell cracks, Minior reveals its Core Form, which in the Green Meteor variant, is a bright green color.
- The Core Form is characterized by its vibrant core and small, star-like protrusions.
Behavior and Habitat:
- Minior is known to live in the upper atmosphere, where it absorbs particles to form its rocky shell.
- When its shell becomes too heavy, it descends to the planet's surface, often found in mountainous regions.
- It is a solitary Pokémon, typically traveling alone as it falls from the sky.
In Battle:
- Minior is a versatile Pokémon that can switch from a defensive role in its Meteor Form to an offensive role in its Core Form.
- Notable moves include Shell Smash, which drastically increases its attacking power and speed, and Acrobatics, which takes advantage of its Flying type.
- It is strong against Bug, Fire, Flying, and Ice types due to its Rock type.
- It has notable weaknesses to Water, Electric, Ice, and Rock types.
Evolution:
- Minior does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making it a standalone species.
Interesting Facts:
- Minior's dual forms, Meteor and Core, reflect its unique ability to balance between defense and offense.
- The color of Minior's Core Form is determined at random when it is encountered, with several possible variants, including the Green Meteor.
- Its design and concept are inspired by meteorites and the process of atmospheric entry, where a meteor sheds its outer layers as it descends to Earth.
