Anybody using a Mimikyu in competitive? Probably my favourite gen 7 pokemon so trying to figure out how to best use him.
What moves and what EVs are people using?

I run this.
Jolly
252 attack / 252 speed / 6 hp
Life orb
Swords dance
Shadow sneak
Play rough
Leech life
Mimikyu has good attack after SD with life orb, it doesn't need attack. Speed is important as you need play rough and leech life to connect, this is why the jolly nature and speed investment. Despite its good defensive typing mimikyu's defenses aren't good, runnimg life orb as good as it'll probably be OHKOed by the first thing that out speeds it or survives SS.
