Mime Jr. Weakness
Mime Jr.'s Psychic typing leaves it vulnerable to Bug, Ghost, and Dark. Filter reduces SE moves damage, further improving the defensive spread. Mime Jr.'s special bulk (base 90 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.

|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Bug, Ghost, Dark |
