Minior

Template:PokeBox Minior (Japanese: メテノ, Hepburn: Meteno) is a dual Rock/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

Biology

Physiology

Minior resembles a levitating sentient meteorite with a light brown-colored body. It has two large black-colored circular eyes and five spikes protruding from its body. It also has triangular markings covering its body as well.

In its actual form, Minior is smaller and has a perfectly spherical body. It eyes now are white and spiral-shaped. The color of its body is one of seven colors: red (pink), orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

Behavior

Minior is thought to have originated from outer space, being created from absorbing large quantities of space debris. After absorbing too much debris, Minior crash lands to Earth.

Minior's rocky armor protects its vulnerable core inside. After revealing its core-shaped form, Minior will be able to attack more quickly due to its light weight.

The different colors of the core are based on what debris the Minior absorbs.

Evolution

Minior does not evolve.
