Miniremo units

Miniremo Units are small, compact devices employed by Team Dim Sun (and, later, Team Debonairs) to control Pokémon in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia. They are a more modern version of the heavy and unwieldy Gigaremo Units. They resemble small laptop computers.

The Miniremo Unit was invented by Isaac in a short span of time, unlike the original model, which was constructed by Altru's most intelligent scientists after years of research.

If a Ranger captures the Pokémon being controlled by a Miniremo, the Miniremo explodes and the Pokémon are automatically released.

Blake Hall is seen terminating the production of both Gigaremo and Miniremo units in preparation for the launch of the Incredible Machine, which is a Gigaremo built in the form of a gigantic tower.

A crucial component of the Miniremo Unit is the Dark Shard, a shard of the Shadow Crystal. After the events of Shadows of Almia, all Dark Shards, even those within Miniremo Units, became Luminous, rendering the Miniremos useless. However, the Miniremos at the Oil Field Hideout could not be reached by the light from the now Luminous Crystal, and so those few Miniremos were still usable, until the player caused them to explode during some of the special missions from Ranger Net.

Trivia

  • Despite the Vatonage Styler's ability to allow befriending of hypnotized Pokémon, Pokémon controlled by Miniremos are still released, no matter what Styler is used to capture them. This seems to extend only to Gigaremo-controlled Pokémon.
