Minun (Japanese: マイナン Minun) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but can be thought as a counterpart to Plusle. Minun, along with Plusle, is one of the two Partner Pokémon available at the beginning of the Pokémon Ranger.
Biology
Minun is a cream-colored bipedal Pokémon with blue markings. It has a dot-like nose and a cream-colored minus sign in the middle of its circular blue cheeks. It has long, flat ears that are mostly blue. Its limbs are stubby and digitless, and it has blue front paws. Its short tail is tipped with a blue minus sign.
Minun cares more for its teammates than itself, sending off showers of sparks when it cheers for them. When its partner is in trouble, it gives off increasing amounts of sparks. It can create electric pom-poms for cheering. Its electrical current promotes blood circulation and energizes its target. It lives in grasslands and savannas. However, it will hide under the eaves of houses when it rains due to its dislike of water. Minun is often seen together with Plusle.
Prior to Generation V, Minun was the only known Pokémon that could have Minus as an Ability.
