Strategy Overview

Mr. Mime struggles to stand out from other Psychic-types like Musharna and Jynx despite its secondary Fairy typing. Its Nasty Plot set can work against balance and stall teams by breaking through walls and hitting surprisingly hard with its perfect neutral coverage, and its Fairy typing helps it serve as a reliable check to Dragon-types in the tier like Drampa and Altaria. However, although Mr. Mime's Speed is slightly above average, it is slow enough to be scared out by faster Pokemon due to its poor physical bulk and HP. Its defenses also leave it susceptible to priority moves and Pursuit trapping, which can make it hard to use. While its Fairy typing can lend a hand in checking Fighting-types more easily, Mr. Mime still faces a lot of competition from fellow Psychic-types Jynx and Musharna, which are simply much better all around due to better secondary STAB and access to Lovely Kiss for the former and far superior bulk for the latter.
