The '''Mimic glitch''' occurs in the Japanese version of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. It involves using the move {{m|Transform}} via {{m|Mimic}}. It causes the Pokémon to keep the moves it learned while transformed.

==Performing the glitch==
To perform the glitch, the player must first have a Pokémon use {{m|Transform}}. A Pokémon must then use {{m|Mimic}} on the Pokémon which just used Transform, causing it to learn Transform temporarily. The Pokémon using Mimic must then transform into the Pokémon whose moves it will learn, then [[Fainting|faint]]. At this point, the Pokémon who used Mimic will then permanently know all of the moves of the Pokémon it transformed into. The player must then end the battle, by winning or losing.
 
If a Pokémon who already knows Transform uses this glitch by skipping Mimic, their moveset will get overwritten as well.
 
==Other Generation IV games==
This glitch has been removed in the localized versions of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, as well as all releases of {{game2|HeartGold|SoulSilver|Platinum}}. However, a similar glitch persists in these games, but requires the use of {{m|Rage}}, dubbed the [[Rage glitch]].
