Minior Showers: Orionids

Minior makes its Pokémon GO debut in its Meteor Form during the Orionids meteor shower, from 19 to 24 October, with one of its seven core colours appearing for the first time. Evenings are the time to look, when Minior turns up more often in the wild. In battles against Team GO Rocket, team leaders and in the GO Battle League, Minior switches from Meteor Form to its exposed core once its HP falls below half, trading Defence for Attack.
