History FanonPokedex / Minccino

Minccino and Cinccino are small rodent-like Pokémon native to Unova and other nearby regions, that mostly populate wide grasslands, sparse forested areas and city suburbs. Wild populations in other regions are being studied at the time of writing of this article; see [[#Habitat]], however.

Sometimes, Minccino and Trubbish's territories or paths cross. While they won't jump at and attack each other, the presence of both these Pokémon leads to very extroverted and unstable dynamics depending on how populated of random objects is their surrounding space. In general it is recommended to stay away at the sight of Minccino facing Trubbish in suburb areas. See the [[#Minccino and Trubbish]] section for more details.

After eight to ten weeks, a litter of three or four Minccino is born. The kits grow hair from the lower spine outwards, and then the paws. At the second week, all members of the litter accompany their parents in short escapaed to go collect random leaves, specks or pebbles around their home. Each sibling must maintain a small hoard of his own in a safe spot of their choosing outside of the family den, and will be forced to leave, gaining independence, once he can afford maintaining an habitable resting spot without needing the parents's assistance to sort out or clean the collected objects. This process can last from three to eight months, depending on the habitat and availability of collectibles.

In general, two "schools" of Minccino battling style can be observed in the wild. The first one has them always keep close to the opponent, darting and hopping around in a manner that allows them to preserve and build momentum that they carry out from their tree leaps and other maneuvers; this particularly [[WaxOnWaxOff benefits the simplest, more instinctive patterns of attack]] such as tackling or scratching, which they perform with added power at no extra effort expense. The second, somewhat rarer teaching is similar to patterns exhibited in {{FanonPokedex/Shellder}} or {{FanonPokedex/Aipom}} attack styles, where as part of a calmer, more thought movement, the Pokémon always follows their opponent and [[CircleOfExtinction maintains a constantly open vector of attack]], allowing them to consecutively land attacks even as they move or wiggle around. This kind of strategy is far more taxing on their small bodies, which might be the reason why so few specimens seem to be taught this way; however, it can be observed that Cinccino greatly benefit from is as they can learn a variety of attacks involving the concept of throwing stuff around, up to and including BulletSeed.
