The Minicom (Japanese: ミニコン) is a minicomputer accessible from the menu in Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!.

It is given to the player character Mark or Mint by Dr. Mason at the start of the game.

Deck Save Machine link

Main article: Deck Save Machine

This is identical to the Deck Save Machine found at the Mason Laboratory, allowing the player to save and retrieve customized decks.

See mailbox

The mailbox contains e-mails received from various people, as opposed to the first game where only Dr. Mason sent mail to the player. Unlike the first game, it is possible to delete mail, which can't be recovered if deleted. The mailbox is only accessible from the Minicom, not from the PC.

View card catalogue

The card catalogue is identical to the "Card" option found in the menu of the previous game, except more cards are available in this game. This catalogue contains a list of all the cards owned by the player, regardless of whether they are in a deck or not. There are nine pages: one for each of the seven Pokémon types, another for Trainer cards, and the last one for Energy cards.

The player is able to check each card and read their text. The number of repeated cards is shown with each card. The total number of available cards is shown at the top, counting repeated cards. If the player does not have a certain card, it does not appear in the list at all.
