Summary

Minior Violet is a dual-type Rock/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

Type: Rock/Flying

Abilities:

  • Shields Down: Minior's ability, Shields Down, allows it to change forms. When it has more than half of its Hit Points, it remains in its Meteor Form, which is defensive. Once its Hit Points drop below half, it transforms into its Core Form, which is more offensively oriented.

Physical Characteristics:

  • In Meteor Form, Minior appears as a spherical, grayish rock with a rugged surface.
  • Once it transforms into its Core Form, its exterior shell cracks away, revealing a smaller, vibrant core. The core can be of various colors, with Minior Violet being a specific color form.
  • Its core form is bright and colorful with a glossy, crystalline appearance, resembling a star or a jewel.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Minior forms in the upper atmosphere, where it absorbs materials from space.
  • Once its shell becomes too heavy, it falls to the earth, often landing in rocky or mountainous regions.
  • It is known for its playful nature, especially when in Core Form, as it becomes lighter and more energetic.

In Battle:

  • Minior starts battles in its Meteor Form, emphasizing defense.
  • Upon losing half of its HP, it switches to Core Form, gaining a notable increase in speed and attack power.
  • Notable moves include Power Gem, Acrobatics, and Shell Smash, the latter of which further boosts its offensive capabilities.
  • Its dual typing provides resistances to Normal, Poison, and Flying-type moves, but it is vulnerable to Water, Electric, and Ice attacks.

Evolution:

  • Minior does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, standing alone as a single-stage Pokémon.

Interesting Facts:

  • Minior's transformation is a unique mechanic, symbolizing its adaptability and the dual nature of its meteor-like existence.
  • It is inspired by shooting stars and meteorites, with its core colors reflecting the spectrum of lights seen in the night sky.
  • The variety in core colors, including the rare Violet, adds an element of surprise and collectability, as players aim to encounter different color forms.

  • Sun: Originally making its home in the ozone layer, it hurtles to the ground when the shell enclosing its body grows too heavy.
  • Moon: Strong impacts can knock it out of its shell. This Pokémon was born from mutated nanoparticles.
  • Ultra-Sun: It lives in the ozone layer, where it becomes food for stronger Pokémon. When it tries to run away, it falls to the ground.
  • Ultra-Moon: Although its outer shell is uncommonly durable, the shock of falling to the ground smashes the shell to smithereens.
