Trivia

• Mina was the first scout-exclusive 3★ sync pair to receive an alternate outfit.
  • She is currently the only scout-exclusive 3★ sync pair to have a sygna suit.
• According to Hapu, Mina's Tapu Fini is not the Poni Island guardian that she knows. Olivia theorizes that it came from an Ultra Wormhole.
• All versions of Mina use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon). Those Trainers include Hapu and Burgh.
  • Mina also uses special voice-over lines upon winning a battle with Burgh in the same team.

Origin

Mina's design is based on her appearance in Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon. Granbull is one of the Pokémon that Mina uses in the core series games. Granbull's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.

Mina is not seen owning a Tapu Fini outside this game, though it is the guardian deity of Poni Island, which is Mina's home island. Tapu Fini's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.
