Mimikyu

1. Understanding Base Stats

Mimikyu's stat distribution makes it excel in specific roles. Focus on maximizing its strongest stats through proper EV training.

2. Optimal Nature Selection

Choose a nature that boosts Mimikyu's primary attacking stat while lowering a less important one.

7. Entry Hazard Support

Stealth Rock and Spikes can help Mimikyu secure KOs it would otherwise miss.

8. Speed Control

9. Prediction and Switching

Master the art of prediction - knowing when to stay in and when to switch is crucial.

The metagame constantly evolves. Stay updated on trends and adapt your strategies accordingly.
