Mimikyu (Japanese: ミミッキュ Mimikkyu) is a dual-type Ghost/Fairy Pokémon.

Biology

Mimikyu is a small Pokémon whose body is hidden under a veil. Only its beady black eyes are visible through holes in the body of its disguise. Its true appearance is unknown, but the veil it wears resembles a Pikachu. The cloth itself is yellow with black tipped ears. The face consists of black eyes, red cheeks, and a squiggly black mouth that appear to be drawn with crayons. It also carries a small stick resembling a lightning bolt to create a tail for its costume.

Mimikyu is always covered by its disguise. Since this Pokémon is weakened by sunlight, it is rumored that the veil is used for protection. It is believed that seeing its true form will cause a mysterious illness. Mimikyu's disguise is modelled after Pikachu because of the popularity of Pikachu-styled merchandise. This lonely Pokémon thought that this disguise would allow it to make friends with people.
