#4: Mentera- Mentera has very strong psychic powers, but tends to keep them hidden; it is a very secluded Pokémon because of its fears of these powers. In order to contain them, Mentera constantly squeezes its eyes shut, afraid of what might happen if it stops. Some experts doubt it even has eyes, suggesting a common ancestor with Zubat. Mentera cannot fully lift its ears like most bat Pokémon because all of its strength is dedicated to containing its psychic powers. Though Mentera can fly, it typically chooses not to. The eye-like patterns on Mentera’s wings scare away predators who would make an easy meal out of this tiny, blind Pokémon. (Name from “Chiroptera'', the scientific name for bats, and “mental”)
