A fantastic pokemon,
I love the possibilities with just it's design alone.

Very cute lore for a ghost.
And in-game they are just busted. Who doesn't like a free Sword Dance into either a Shadow Claw, a Z move or STAB priority?

A genuinely great design.
Pre-nerf disguise was one of the most busted things in singles holy shit.

Mimikyu sees play, unlike the penguin. As usual, zoomie swoosh haters are uninformed, gay and retarded.

>Its actual appearance is unknown. A scholar who saw what was under its rag was overwhelmed by terror and died from the shock.
>A gust of wind revealed what hides under this Pokémon's rag to a passing Trainer, who went home and died painfully that very night.

I love mimikyu but I wish all mimikyu weren't mimicking just pikachu. It'd make more sense to me for them to try to mimic whatever pokemon are popular in the region they are in instead of every single one of them being so tunnel-vision on pikachu. Still, they're cute and are my favorite ghost.

Just more pandering from a generation already known from leeching off Kanto so much

It's at least A tier in battle too. Having an ability to block one hit for sure is just too good.

Seconding this. Yeah, there is no real reason for why every single Mimikyu would use a Pikachu disguise and not just whatever they think popular.

Mimikyu is from gen 7, not 6, 4, or 2.

The design is decent. I skipped it in Sun but added one to my UM team and it was a monster. Basically soloed Necrozma after reviving a few times, and it had just the right coverage to support my main Incineroar/Hawlucha team perfectly.

It's literally my favorite pokemon, a little underwhelming in both singles and doubles but it's had its day. I know it is so good in BSS that they nerfed its ability which is a bit of a shame

I have a head canon that under the cloak it looks exactly like pikachu just with that black mark on the tail that people always put in shitty Mandela effect videos. Every one who died was killed buy it so they couldn’t tell anyone. It’s not something I really believe I just think it’s a cute idea
