It has arrived just as we approach Halloween. In this Pokémon Unite Mimikyu guide, we have entirely discussed how to play with Mimikyu, the All-rounder, from start to end.

Pokémon Unite Mimikyu Guide: Mimikyu and its movesets
As expected, Mimikyu has a combination of Fairy-type and most importantly, an arsenal of Ghost-type moves, mainly based on agility, as it was in the anime. Here are the details of those movesets in Pokémon Unite.
Basic Attack
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.
Passive- Disguise
When the Pokémon is in its Disguised form and takes damage from opposing Pokémon, Mimikyu has its HP decreased by a set percentage of its remaining 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
Ability 1- Astonish
The Ghost-type move has Mimikyu shout in a startling fashion, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon.
- Type- Area
- CD- 7s
Ability 1 upgrades at Level 5
At Level 5, Astonish evolves into either of these 2 moves based on your choice:
| Play Rough | Shadow Claw |
|---|---|
| Play Rough has Mimikyu jump forward, then move around an opponent it hits dealing damage and decreasing their movement speed. After the attack finishes, it can jump in a direction of its choosing. Type– Dash CD- 5s |
Mimikyu slashes 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 Mimikyu hits opposing Pokémon with a basic attack, this move’s cooldown is reduced, and the number of times it attacks when this move is used next increases (maximum 4 times). The movement speed decreases caused by this move can stack. Type– Melee CD- 4s |
| Upgrade: Increases the user’s movement speed for a short time after the attack is over. | Upgrade: At the end of the attack, additional damage is dealt based on the percentage of HP the opponent has lost. |
Ability 2- Scratch
- Type- Dash
- CD- 8s
Mimikyu charges 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 the opposing Pokémon it hits. At that time, additional damage is dealt according to the percentage of HP that the opposing Pokémon has lost.
Ability 2 upgrades at Level 7
At Level 7, Scratch evolves into either of these 2 moves, based on your choice.
| Shadow Sneak | Trick Room |
| Mimikyu extends 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 further. If the user deals damage to an opposing Pokémon marked as a shadow target, additional damage is dealt with 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. Type- Ranged CD- 8s |
Trick Room creates a bizarre area around Mimikyu. If a movement speed decrease is applied to Mimikyu while it’s in the area, it converts to an increase and takes less damage from opponents outside of the area. Also, while in the area, Mimikyu can use this move again to move a set distance forward, as desired. Type- Buff CD- 12s |
| Upgrade: Reduce cooldown. | Upgrade: Reduce cooldown. |
Unite Move- Play With Me
Play With Me has Mimikyu leap at an opponent and trap it inside of its rag, dealing damage over time and granting Mimikyu a shield. Opponents aren’t affected by any Pokémon’s moves except Mimikyu while trapped.
Best items for Mimikyu in Pokémon Unite
Further in this guide, we will discuss the best-held items for Mimikyu in Pokémon Unite, as well as its best battle item.
Best held Items
| Item | Utility |
| Attack Weight | Focus Band would provide Mimikyu with a large amount of Attack stat when fully stacked. |
| Razor Claw | Razor Claw synergizes well with Mimikyu’s combos, allowing its attacks to deal increased damage and slow targets after using a move since it is a melee-type Pokémon. |
