Strategies[]

For more tips and tricks for using Mimikyu, see here.

Experiment With Disguise[]

Mimikyu's fighting effectiveness is enhanced by the powers of disguise. Utilizing and comprehending these effects is a fundamental aspect of Mimikyu's gameplay.

Change Tactics Based On Move 2[]

The degree to which Mimikyu learns Trick Room or Shadow Sneak affects how it plays. This is because every move has a radically different effect and makes the Pokemon play in a different way.

Take Advantage of Mimikyu's Boosted Attack Mechanic[]

Every time Mimikyu makes a move, it earns a Boosted Attack. Use this technique to add Boosted Attacks to Mimikyu's combos or to spam them. By doing this, Mimikyu is able to do a substantial amount of damage.

Use Play With Me... on Key Targets[]

Play With Me confines a target in place and slowly does damage. The technique is special because, while the target is imprisoned, it is unaffected by any other moves save Mimikyu's. This implies that the target's teammates' heals, shields, and buffs will be ineffective. It is ideal to utilize the move on important targets, such as the damage dealer or supporter of the other team, to either finish them off or remove them from the fight temporarily.

Watch Out for Pokemon with Strong Disables[]

Since Mimikyu is a melee Pokemon that depends on special mechanics to be triggered, it struggles against Pokemon who have a lot of powerful disables. It becomes very challenging for Mimikyu to carry out its games effectively if the Pokemon is perpetually shocked and unable to strike adversaries. When using disablers, try to avoid them as much as you can or wait for their cooldown to end before using them in combat.

Evolution[]

Mimikyu is not known to evolve from any Pokemon, thus having no evolution.

Mimikyu

Level 1

Ability[]

All Evolution Stages
Blaz Disguise	When the Pokémon is in Disguised Form and takes damage from opposing Pokémon, the Pokémon with this Ability has its HP decreased by a set percentage of its max HP, nullifies damage for a set amount of time, and changes to Busted Form. At the same time, a revenge mark is applied to the opposing Pokémon that dealt the damage. The Pokémon with this Ability increases in movement speed when approaching revenge-marked opposing Pokémon and deals increased damage to them. If the Pokémon remains in Busted Form for a set amount of time, it returns to Disguised Form. If the Pokémon knocks out an opposing Pokémon, the time it takes to return to Disguised Form is decreased.

Movesets[]

Icon	Attack	Type	Cooldown	Damage		Description	Notes
Icon	Attack	Type	Cooldown	Starting	Final	Description	Notes
	Standard Attack	N/A				Becomes a boosted attack with every third attack, striking twice with an increased area of attack. The next basic attack after using a move becomes a boosted attack.
Level 1 - Level 3 The following moves can be learned at Level 1 and Level 3, in any order.
	Astonish	Area	7 seconds	449	543	Has the user shout in a startling fashion, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon.
	Scratch	Dash	8 seconds	343	453	Has the user charge in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon it hits and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. For a short time after the user charges, if this move is used again, the user attacks in front of itself, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon it hits. At that time, additional damage is dealt based on the percentage of HP that the opposing Pokémon has lost.
Level 5 One of the following moves can be learned at Level 5 to replace Astonish.
	Play Rough	Dash	7.5 seconds	1476	2664	Has the user jump forward, then move around opposing Pokémon it hits, dealing damage multiple times and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. After the attack is finished, the user jumps in the designated direction. Upgrade (Level 11): Increases the user's movement speed for a short time after the attack is finished.
	Shadow Claw	Melee	4 seconds	599	1190	Has the user slash in front of itself with sharp claws, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon it hits, decreasing their movement speed, and restoring the user's HP. Whenever the user hits opposing Pokémon with a basic attack, this move's cooldown is reduced, and the number of times the user attacks when this move is used next increases (maximum 4 times). The movement speed decreases caused by this move can stack. Upgrade (Level 11): At the end of the attack, additional damage is dealt based on the percentage of HP the opposing Pokémon has lost.
Level 7 One of the following moves can be learned at Level 7 to replace Scratch.
	Shadow Sneak	Ranged	9 seconds	852	1308	Has the user extend its shadow, marking an opposing Pokémon it hits as a shadow target for a short time. If the shadow passes through tall grass or a wall, it extends even further. If the user deals damage to an opposing Pokémon marked as a shadow target, additional damage is dealt based on the percentage of HP that the opposing Pokémon has lost. If this move is used again, the user moves to an opposing Pokémon marked as a shadow target, deals damage to it, and extends the duration of that Pokémon's shadow mark. If the user knocks out a Pokémon marked as a shadow target, this move's cooldown is reset and the user recovers HP. Upgrade (Level 13): Reduces this move's cooldown.
	Trick Room	Buff	7 seconds	N/A		Has the user create a bizarre area around itself. If a movement speed decrease is applied to the user while it is within the area, that effect is converted into a movement speed increase, and the user takes reduced damage from Pokémon outside the area. Also, while in the area, the user can use this move again to move a set distance forward, as often as desired. Upgrade (Level 13): Reduces this move's cooldown.
Level 9 The Pokémon learns its Unite Move.
	Play With Me...	Sure Hit	112 seconds	3052	4214	Has the user leap at an opposing Pokémon and trap it inside its rag, dealing damage over time and granting the user a shield. The trapped opposing Pokémon isn't affected by any Pokémon's moves except the user's. If the user loses its shield, or if a set amount of time passes, the user stops attacking and jumps in the designated direction.
