Is he competitively viable?
I think so. Its ability and unique typing should be able to at least fill some sort of niche.

Z-splash, Leech Life, and Play Rough are a good set for it. Makes for a good physical sweeper who can set up the +3 attack of free on the first turn due to ability.
>>30089402
dont forget access to swords dance
>>30088997
I think its biggest counter could be toucannon with skill link rock blast for now, if your refering to vgc ruleset.
Teach this little fucker substitute and build up your power.
>>30088997
Definitely. Slight 4-moveslot syndrome, but a very solid and unique Pokémon.
>>30089525
Vgc sucks

>Z-Splash
meme move
just use SD and a focus sash instead
Retarded over hyped gimmick shitmon.
What's a good moveset for him in game? About to breed for one.
>>30091035
This
Don't be a shitter, use SD and life orb and its better then zsplash.
Everybody talks about Swords Dance but the free status on whatever you want is pretty useful as well.
I tryed a fun set on showdown.
Give it a weakness policy and theft.
2+ and a free item

>Z-splash
>Wasting a z move when sword dance/life orb does more damage
stop.

Does Weakness Policy trigger on the Disguise hit?
It's definitely viable because Disguise lets you get a free SD against offense-oriented teams and then start slapping back with +2 STAB Shadow Sneaks. But IIRC Disguise doesn't protect it from status or Intimidate/Taunt so there's that to watch out for.
>>30091458
Yes it does
>>30091458
it doesn't on cart but showdown hasn't caught up
same with focus sashes breaking if the hit your disguise tanked was strong enough to trigger it
>>30091050
>Mimikyu
>shitmon
How?
>free Trick Room
Mimikyu is amazing.
>>30088997
Yeah, it'll see some use in VGC as a supporter due to its ability, and in UU it will probably be a menace
>>30089402
Stop this Z-Splash meme, SD+real item is always more efficient unless you have to deal with item clause.
>>30091497
>But IIRC Disguise doesn't protect it from status or Intimidate/Taunt so there's that to watch out for.
This is true. Pic related is my designated Mimikyu fucker uper.
>>30091501
>>30091519
That's pretty funny. Well done, Showdown.
I was worried this thing would become Klefki 2.0 in terms of annoyance. Thank goodness Disguise doesn't reset on switch.
Would replacing your starter with Mimikyu from the start be too broken?
I love Mimikyu and like the idea of this for fun but am slightly concerned Mimikyu is just too good.
Anyone doing shiny giveaways? I'll give my left nut for one, or a Rowlet with the nature of your choice.

>tfw there's more people spreading the anti z-splash meme gospel
I'm proud of you all
That said Mimikyu's just turning out "okay" since it doesn't hit extremely hard after SD
>>30092286
Sure, 90 Attack is very low for OU, but as long as you have good wall breakers and pebbles up, it's enough to do the job.
