Mina (Japanese: マツリカ Matsurika) is the Trial Captain of Poni Island. She specializes in Fairy-type Pokémon.
In the games
Mina is an aspiring artist who starting painting at an early age. She is acquainted with Ilima.
The player first meets Mina while navigating the Vast Poni Canyon. Mina is seen surveying the landscape when she notices the player and introduces herself as a captain. However, because she spends so much time dedicated to her art, she doesn't have an actual trial prepared for the player. Instead, she gives the player a Fairium Z. She muses on what she could make her trial about before bidding the player farewell.

Quotes
- Before battle
- "Oh! The one from the great composition! Looks like you've beaten everybody else in this place, huh? Then have a battle against Captain Mina! Let's get our Z on! I hope you're ready for the extraordinary Z-Power of me and my Pokémon!"
- I'll take you on!: "Then here I go! I'm going all out, big-time! Me and my team are all full-powered to the max!"
- Not yet!:
- Upon being defeated
- "Whoa! I'm shocked at your strength!"
- After being defeated
- "Hrmmm! Well, this is frustrating. I failed to really use my full power... But it was a fun battle, so take this, big-time!"
- "I'd like to draw a picture of the way you look when you're battling, <player>! Let's have another full-power Pokémon battle again sometime, yeah?"
