There is nothing that company can do to convince me to play a game where the entire point is to not play the game. I understand that you need the money (because making a living, contrary to popular belief, is really fucking hard), but I really wish you didn't market their lies and bullshit. A game where you don't play the game is never going to be enjoyable (and we already know that there will be no challenge because the game is designed to play itself, so all strategy is non-existent).
@@BasicSub No, the tail is separate from Mimikyu's real body, just like the disguise *some* part of Mimikyu has to be holding onto the stick, because when it's disguise is fully destroyed in the anime, the tail gets destroyed too.
Addendum: the cloth stays on in public for everyone else's safety, but when in private and the cloth comes off, the camera deliberately hides mimikyu, we don't get to see it's true form, because of course not, but also, the blind man doesnt need to see it, and the camera can reflect that, we dont need to see mimikyu to appreciate the joy it brings the old man Oh, and actions like petting happen with the hand off screen, we get nothing but we see certain actions, like petting
Fun fact about gen 7 VGC: Ghostium Z was common on Mimikyu because it also added the Follow Me effect on Destiny Bond, letting Snorlax set up Belly Drum easier while potentially trading with an opponent
I always thought that what lied under Mimikyu’s cloak is the ghost of a Clefairy, since Clefairy was originally going to be the mascot of Pokémon but was overtaken by Pikachu. As well as Clefairy sharing it’s fairy typing with Mimikyu.
It's apparently only *Jessie's* Mimikyu that hates Pikachu, all other Mimikyu in the anime seem pretty fine with him Tbh Jessie's Mimikyu probably just wants to kill any Pikachu to replace them
@@windego64Mimikyu was almost broken in doubles since you could give it focus sash and with its ability it was like having 2 sashes so it could boost and active trick room. He could also do the same in BSS so yeah he was kinda busted.
I love Mimikyu's lore and design, but it staying OU in gen 7 for as long as it did was and always will be hilarious to me because it had no business being there.
You mentioned 18th place at San Diego but I was 21st with mimikyu lmao. It's like the universe doesn't want me to be in any of your videos. You made your medicham and registeel videos literally right before I get regional finishes with them xd
There's fanart of Mimikyu trying to scare Raven from TT03, and she shows how terrifying she can be right back that the two of them ending up being friends
Red Card Mimikyu was a decent pick as a one-time stop to setup sweepers if its Disguise was in tact too! Ps: Gavin Michael's VGC 2017 teams were some of the coolest we've ever seen!
An additional detail since you, understandably, stick to primary formats: Mimikyu is one of the best random battle Pokémon with swords dance, the ability to take any one hit, and it’s priority, stab shadow sneak absolutely terrifying the opponent. Many of my best reverse sweeps in randbats have been with this monster.
Fun fact, Mimikyu can reliably kill a Mega Beedrill with Let's Snuggle Forever followed by Shadow Sneak if its disguise is intact. It's unbelievably satisfying to beat a speedy killing machine with this tiny adorable scrap of a pokemon.
Love Mimikyu! Easily one of my all time favs. The lore is great and so meaningful to its whole being. Makes me happy to see how impactful it’s been in the competitive scene.
I love how i Mimikyu's lore revolves around imitating Pikachu in order to be loved, and how that matches the fact that it's more competitvely relevant than Pikachu ever has been. All that hardwork making the disguise paid off!😊
I’ll never forget the day I cheesed a win using Mimikyu vs my friend’s Mega Gengar. Disguise in Gen 7 giving Mimikyu a free swords dance was so broken 😂
Still waiting for the counterparts to complete: - Carracosta - Serviper - other gen 5 monkeys - Gothitelle And I guess we could finish up Gen 2 with Sunflora., Magcargo and Corsola. I think those are the only gen 2 Pokemon left to wrap it up.
Mimikyu is my favorite pokémon of all time. It was one of the first pokémon I played around with when I was first learning how to team build in Sun and Moon. It was an absolute powerhouse. I even bought a Mimikyu plush sometime after I beat Moon that I still own to this day. I love Mimikyu
I’m a Singles Trick Room enjoyer. Mimikyu is always a staple on my TR teams with Red Card and Curse, it’s always a great mid game Mon to prevent a sweep, and basically guarantees getting TR up a second time. It’s a good cleaner against offense too!
I find it weird how it can’t learn Poltergeist. I know Dragapult and Basculegion can’t (and I know people would say they’d be broken with it) but you have non Ghost types that learn it and I assume Mimikyu would be better with it but not broken considering its okay stats.
There’s quite a few stutters and even a time where one word is repeated twice at the start of a audio line. I hope you guys aren’t rushing the content, take your time!
dear, sweet mimi 💚 the lil guy is also a beast in pokemon unite, and the SV/PAF booster mimi finds its way onto some tcg decks due to its ability to negate all damage from powerful ex and V cards!
I've never really been into competitive battling, but I remember I managed to get a 100+ win streak in Moon's Battle Tree thanks to my team of Mimikyu, Dragonite and Ash-Greninja. Thank you for this video.
@@strawzulusansundertalehorr7624the person is replying to FSG who said that Mimikyu learning wood hammer doesn't make sense. the commenter is disagreeing, and says it makes sense because Mimikyu's tale is made of wood. hope that helps, buddy.
One of the best Pokémon ever designed. So well designed it also received one of the most direct Nerfs ever. It’s still an amazingly designed Pokemon. Top 5 for many people. Hope we get some regional forms that have disguises other than pikachu one day.
@@milonchello1643 Wherever pikachu is popular mimikyu will always disguise itself as pikachu. So Charizard doesn’t make sense. It would have to be a region that doesn’t have pikachu
@@James-kv3ll i bet that even in the canon pikachu isnt that close to being as popular as charizard, but sure, do you think in galar the rat would be more popular than the champions ace?
A ghost type for Easter!? No wonder my Missing Easter was such a popular spinoff of Mike Inel's Missing Halloween! It's been a whole 4 years since I first saw Missing Halloween. Thanks, FSG. You found me. I found you.
I just like how in the games it wants to be like pikachu, wants that spotlight. But in the anime it absolutely hates Pikachu always trying to murk it every chance it got
in gen9 RU it's most often played with red card to stop setup sweepers who swarm the tier and do some cheap and have priority and zarude got banned making it very good (also funnily enough, if cobal is already set up, if you play HO, red card mimikyu will likely be the only counter you have so it can still be VERY useful against "bad matchups")
I find it hysterical that all the VGC teams shown for 2019 also happen to have Incinaroar. Crazy how one moncan make such high usage on the big stage with restricted pokemon allowed.
As much as a shame it was nerfed, Disguise absolutely needed it. Being able to survive 2 attacks in VGC (unless your opponent was using a Mold Breaker mon which wasn't really an option due to the lack of viable options outside of Excadrill), where turns matter even more, was obscene.
I've always been big on giving my Mimikyu a Lum Berry to help it set up Swords Dance. Burn and Paralysis are the last thing it needs while getting the ball rolling.
This thing was a monster in every single team I made in USUM. It even helped me do a 50 streak in the Battle Tree Super Singles. Also whoever at Gamefreak decided not to give it Poltergeist can swallow a Toxapex whole while it uses Baneful Bunker.
I feel like if they made the disguise ability a lot more like substitute it would have been a little more broken being able to not get your stats drop or have status conditions until your disguise is broken
Suppose it makes sense GameFreak would make an anti Pikachu clone to break the mold of the numerous Pikachu clones over generations 2 through 6, but of course giving it a disturbing Pokédex entry and an ability to take a hit with the illusion of breaking its neck. Plus how in the anime, Meowth refused to translate what Mimikyu said when the trio first came across it in Alola.
Immunity to: fighting, normal, & dragon plus disguise as an ability are all very useful traits to have. Not to mention swords dance and priority. Also it gets immunity to several priority moves like extreme speed & mach punch.
It was cool in hackmons you could use belly drum & sitrus berry with mimikyu...belly drum became so OP when used with sitrus berry and cheek pouch they banned it completely...However we found a new strategy, it's weakness policy with mimikyu & swords dance

Mimikyu learns Wood Hammer because its "tail" is made of wood.
Also in the sun and moon anime too, it actually uses its weird brown tail to fight against Pikachu
@@BasicSub No, the tail is separate from Mimikyu's real body, just like the disguise *some* part of Mimikyu has to be holding onto the stick, because when it's disguise is fully destroyed in the anime, the tail gets destroyed too.
I liked to double down on set up with SD and bulkup
@@Marblesoda821 Yes. That was the joke.
It even resembles a smoothed, aged piece of driftwood, which subtly fits it into its Alolan environment.
Hear me out: A story about a blind man and his Mimikyu partner, a happy story about Mimikyu not needing the cloth to be with its trainer.
youre hired.
Hold up, let him cook
Still needs to be in the cloth when it battles though
Addendum: the cloth stays on in public for everyone else's safety, but when in private and the cloth comes off, the camera deliberately hides mimikyu, we don't get to see it's true form, because of course not, but also, the blind man doesnt need to see it, and the camera can reflect that, we dont need to see mimikyu to appreciate the joy it brings the old man
Oh, and actions like petting happen with the hand off screen, we get nothing but we see certain actions, like petting
@@DJPrimeAmvshow could you battle other trainers if you're blind?
I like how in every pikachu parade there's usually one mimikyu or a ditto as a pikachu hiding in the group.
It's so goofy.
but no Pichu or Raichu... said Pikachu Family noises
Super cute and fun to watch Mimikyu shuffle around
HEY 777 LIKES LES GOO
Fun fact about gen 7 VGC: Ghostium Z was common on Mimikyu because it also added the Follow Me effect on Destiny Bond, letting Snorlax set up Belly Drum easier while potentially trading with an opponent
Ah, Team Rocket's murderous Mimikyu was such a great addition to the anime. Even if it did almost kill Meowth twice.
Jessie was such a good trainer to it
"Meowth, what is it saying?"
"THIS IS A FAMILY SHOW!"
Plus (I haven't seen the episode, only screenshots) doesn't Jessie catch it in a luxury ball? That's my favorite ball for one of my favorite pokemon
@@saintofgayfrogs she steals the Luxury Ball from James
@@AnimationisTHEfuture 😡
I thought Mimikyu could use Wood Hammer because the tail on it's Pikachu disguise is made of wood.
Same here. Makes a lot more sense than Pikachu learning Iron Tail.
@@TwiliPaladin pikachu learns iron tail cause the iron in his tailbone has an overload of iron (i think)
@@TwiliPaladinto be fair, almost every pokemon with a tail can learn iron tail

@@Nadid_Dhrabb well there’s a lot of videos of other Pokémon abilities got Nurfed and Buffed abilities from previous generations.

Ps: Gavin Michael's VGC 2017 teams were some of the coolest we've ever seen!
It makes sense that Mimikyu can use Wood Hammer. It's tail on its costume is a wooden stick. It detaches the tail and smacks the opponent with it.

Mimikyu was a part of my first VGC team in 2017, where I made top 4 at my first local. I have not touched it since

Mimikyu might be the cutest pokemon out there imo
One of the loneliest Pokemon, but also one of the most loved.
its stats arent anything insane, but the combination of its just enough stats ,ability, and typing made it such a good pokemon, in my competitive use
in gen9 RU it's most often played with red card to stop setup sweepers who swarm the tier and do some cheap and have priority and zarude got banned making it very good (also funnily enough, if cobal is already set up, if you play HO, red card mimikyu will likely be the only counter you have so it can still be VERY useful against "bad matchups")
Ahh, yes, Mimikyu. Whose ability received a nerf absolutely no one asked for.
YES I FINALLY MADE IT INTO A FALSE SWIPE GAMING VIDEO @ 11:40
"How GOOD was Mimikyu ACTUALLY?" The answer is that it's the goodest ghost and that it deserves all the love and attention it gets.
This is my favorite pokemon, off all time it’s a perfect Pokemon pear perfection.
Mimikyu is one stop solution for all Offense ruining your day, loved the backstory and trial battle in Poke Sun
It's literally so fun to use in both singles and doubles
Mimikyu's 2019 tournament appearance was so sudden it was literally a jumpscare. Fitting of a ghost pokemon.
idea pitch: when they start dropping new pokemon again, i’d love to see a “how good will ____ be actually” to predict how good new pokémon will ve
The ones with Play Rough, Shadow Sneak, and Sword Dance = 😱
Loved the song when mimikyu was first introduced..
Pikachu janayo mimikyu da yo..
I'm not a pikachu I'm a mimikyu!
The moment Mimikyu was announced, I fell in love.
5:56, as if all that wasn’t enough, they even nerfed disguise in the next gen
I find it hysterical that all the VGC teams shown for 2019 also happen to have Incinaroar. Crazy how one moncan make such high usage on the big stage with restricted pokemon allowed.
YES ive been waiting for this one!
I know this is sort of a waist of a z move but im kinda surprised no one used z splash on mimikyu (z splash boosts attack by 3 in one turn)
Mimikyu needs an evo. Now. Let the squishy boy carry eviolite.
Will forever ❤️ Mimikyu over Pikachu
the advertisement is such a jargon-filled word salad
Gamefreak on their way to make ugly pokemon Uber level and the best designs are UU or below and not widely used in VGC
As much as a shame it was nerfed, Disguise absolutely needed it. Being able to survive 2 attacks in VGC (unless your opponent was using a Mold Breaker mon which wasn't really an option due to the lack of viable options outside of Excadrill), where turns matter even more, was obscene.
I like how the Pika-clone that's the least like a Pika-clone is probably the one everyone latched onto the quickest.
I wonder if gamefreak actually predicted how beloved Mimikyuu would become by the fanbase
It's tail is a piece of wood, so it's ok that it learns Wood Hammer
I've always been big on giving my Mimikyu a Lum Berry to help it set up Swords Dance. Burn and Paralysis are the last thing it needs while getting the ball rolling.

This thing was a monster in every single team I made in USUM. It even helped me do a 50 streak in the Battle Tree Super Singles. Also whoever at Gamefreak decided not to give it Poltergeist can swallow a Toxapex whole while it uses Baneful Bunker.
Literally the best thing to come out of Pokemon
Trick flame orb swords dance shake my hand
Mimikyu whenever the VGC format allows koraidon:
*My Time Has Come!*
I don’t know why I felt sad that mimikyu lost all its friends in OU 😢
I feel like if they made the disguise ability a lot more like substitute it would have been a little more broken being able to not get your stats drop or have status conditions until your disguise is broken
I mean gen 7 mimikyu was fine, but gamefreak would do anything to make vgc boring and in turn destroy singles pokemon.
I wish Minikyu will get an unbound version like Hoopa, where we can see his true form under the disguise
Mimikyu is a friend :)
I've always enjoyed using this little fella. I love using Curse to weaken dangerous foes who are 3 times its height and size.
