Stats & Training
The stat bars tell the story: Sp. Def carries everything and HP's dead weight. But this Barrier Pokemon still yields 2 Sp. Def EVs per fight on a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
Mr. Mime Weakness
Type-wise, Mr. Mime takes extra damage from Bug, Ghost, and Dark. Filter reduces SE moves damage, further improving the defensive spread. Mr. Mime's special bulk (base 120 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Bug, Ghost, Dark |
| 0.5x (Resist) | Fighting, Psychic |
- Dark and Steel types added — Fairy does not exist yet
- Moves are Physical or Special based on type, not per move
In Emerald, Forretress can KO Mr. Mime with Explosion (105-124%). Houndoom threatens a KO with Crunch (91-107%). Dusclops deals 75-88% with Shadow Ball.

How to Get Mr. Mime in Emerald
No wild encounters for Mr. Mime in Emerald. It's available in Red, Yellow, or Sword and can be transferred over. The details below show where to find it.
Mr. Mime Guide
At 460 BST, Mr. Mime is firmly in pre-evolution territory. Not competitive in its current form.
In Emerald, Mr. Mime's biggest threats include Scyther (Bug), Misdreavus (Ghost), and Tyranitar (Dark), all carrying super-effective STAB moves.
Mr. Mime gets Technician, Soundproof, and Filter. But Technician is the one that matters. It's the centerpiece of every viable set. Build around that.
In Emerald, Technician is the hidden ability. It strengthens moves of 60 base power or less to 1.5× their power. Worth hunting for if you want Mr. Mime to compete at a higher level.
Game Availability
Available since Red & Blue, Mr Mime appears in 21 games spanning 10 generations. Beyond its original form, it gained a Galarian form in Generation 8.
