Lol. Hax. Roflcopter.

So, we're back. I see Scarlet's as productive as ever. >_> Anyway...

Today's Pokemon in Minun. The little **** ****** me off to no end. I
mean, look at it. LOOK. AT. IT. He's a minature Pikachu rip-off that
only exists for two reasons. These are to be teamed up with Plusle and
to get raped by Earthquake. Oh well. Let's see what he can do.

#312 - Minun
Type - Electric
Cheering Pokemon
Height - 1'04"
Weight - 9.3 lbs

Trait:

Minus: When battling with Plus, Sp. Attack increases.

Evolution Chain:

Minun does not evolve

Appearances: Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl

Minun is fairly rare in all the games he appears in. The RSE generation
shows him at Route 110. D/P has made him relocate to the Trophy
Garden behind that big mansion, but you need to beat the game before
he will appear.

Moveset:

Item: Bright Powder
Trait: Minus

Stats:

HP: 324
Attack: 179
Defense: 199
Special Attack: 249
Special Defense: 269
Speed: 289

Thunder Wave
Nasty Plot
Baton Pass
Trump Card

Alrighty. Minun is a piece of crap turned into an electric mouse. None of
his stats are good, he's crap, he's only good in team battles, he's crap,
no one likes him, he gets owned by everything, and did I mention that
he's crap?

Thunder Wave is like a crap Confuse Ray. If there's one thing that Minun
is capable of, it's supporting his teammates for a turn or two before he
dies. Thunder Wave can help buy some time for this, but don't get
cocky with the move. Baton Passers like Minun tend to think they can
get away with more then they think they can.

Nasty Plot is our stat-booster of choice for Minun. This move increases
Special Attack by two for each use. Many of the Pokemon that can make
use from this move are often too fragile for it, like Azelf and Alakazam.
Minun, while fragile as well, can at least make an effort to get this stat
booster over to them.

Baton Pass is the move of Minun's existance. For those of you pathetic
enough to not know, Baton Pass switches out Pokemon while keeping
all the stat boosts intact. This is considered a vital tactic for Pokemon
battling, ever since it was introduced in the Metal era of Pokemon. So,
it's straightforward: Nasty Plot, then Baton Pass.

Trump Card is Minun's trump card (pun not intended), in case he ends
up being the last Pokemon on the field with no one to pass to. Trump
Card increases in power with each use, since the power increases with
the less PP the move has. This makes it powerful, but only if you live
long enough for the PP boost to take effect. It is a wonderful punisher
for Pressure Pokemon, though.

Bright Powder is what you get. Deal. Minus, Minun's trait, is only useful
with Plusle. It increases Special Attack if Plusle with her Plus trait is on
the field as well. However, both of them get pwnzord by Earthquake, so
it doesn't really matter.

Okay, alternate move time. Uh...I guess Fake Tears, Charm, and/or
Wish could work well. The first two are stat-lowerers, while Wish is similar
to Future Sight, but it restores your health. This one happens to be a
breeding move.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is Minun. Join me tomorrow for another
exciting POKEMON OF THE DAY!!! *fireworks*
