Mimic (Japanese: ものまね Mimic) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It was TM31 in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I

Mimic allows the user to select one of the target's moves to copy, as well as the move's maximum PP. The user will retain the copied attack in Mimic's place until it faints or is switched out, or the battle ends. Mimic can't copy Struggle because it is not a normally selectable move.

If Mimic copies a partial trapping move, and if the target switches out when its PP is 0 and before its duration is over, the current PP of the move will roll over to 63 and full PP ups will be applied to it. Mimic will retain the move's current PP if the user switches out, and full PP ups will be applied to any moves that Mimic subsequently copies.

In-game, Mimic allows the user to see the target's moveset and select the move to copy, except in link battles.

Mimic cannot create duplicate moves; if the opponent last used a move that the attacking Pokémon already knows, Mimic will fail.

In Pokémon Stadium, Mimic will not copy a move's maximum PP.

Generation II

Mimic copies the target's last move; the mimicked move has 5 PP. It fails to mimic the moves Sketch, Struggle and Metronome, however.

Generation III

In Pokémon XD and Pokémon Colosseum, Shadow moves cannot be mimicked. It will instead say, "But it failed!".

Generation IV

In Generation IV and on, Chatter is unable to be copied through Mimic.

In early copies of the Japanese Pokémon Diamond and Pearl a glitch exists where, if Transform is mimicked and used, then the user faints but the player still wins the battle, all moves gained from the use of Transform are retained after the battle.

Generation V

The mimicked move now has the max PP as opposed to 5. Mimic still fails to mimic Sketch, Struggle and Metronome.

Other effect

If Mimic is known by a Bonsly or a Mime Jr. when they level up, they will evolve into a Sudowoodo or a Mr. Mime, respectively.
