Minior is known for its ability to shed its rocky outer shell, revealing a colorful core. This outer shell protects it from the vacuum of space and the friction of atmospheric re-entry. When its shell is broken, its true form, a vibrant core, is revealed, but this also leaves it vulnerable, causing it to fall to the ground. Minior typically live in the ozone layer, absorbing dust and debris to form their shells. They are often collected by researchers due to their unique properties and the beautiful colors of their cores, which vary depending on the compounds they absorb. In the games, Minior's ability, Shields Down, reflects this mechanic, changing its stats and appearance once its HP drops below half. Its role in the anime often highlights its short but impactful existence on Earth before fading away, emphasizing its ephemeral beauty. Minior's design draws inspiration from meteors and space debris, making it a distinctive and memorable Pokémon from the Alola region.
