How To Catch Mimikyu In Pokemon Ultra Sun And Moon

So, you want a Mimikyu? That little ghost-fairy type is pretty darn popular, isn’t it? Like a shy kid hiding under a Pikachu blanket, Mimikyu just wants a friend. Let's go find one!

Location, Location, Location

First, you'll need to head to the Ula'ula Island. Specifically, we're going to the Supermarket.

I know what you're thinking, "A supermarket? For a ghost Pokemon?" Trust me on this one. This isn’t your average grocery run.

Aisles of Apparitions

Make your way to the back of the store. Look for a door that leads to an abandoned site. This is where the fun begins!

The abandoned site is a sprawling location to explore. Mimikyu won’t just be handing itself out, so get ready to wander a little.

This place has an eerie vibe. The broken shopping carts and empty shelves add to the spookiness.

The Hunt Begins!

Now comes the waiting game. Mimikyu is a bit of a rare encounter. You’ll be battling other Pokemon while you wait to find Mimikyu.

Keep walking around in the abandoned supermarket area. Eventually, with a bit of luck, you’ll run into the Pikachu-disguised ghost.

Don’t give up. Persistence is key, like finding the perfect avocado at the grocery store.

Battle Time!

Okay, the moment you've been waiting for is here. You've encountered a wild Mimikyu! Time for a battle!

Now, remember, Mimikyu is a Ghost/Fairy type. It's weak to Ghost and Steel moves.

Don't knock it out! Your goal is to weaken it enough to catch it. Bring along some status inflicting moves like paralysis.

Catching the Cryptid

Once Mimikyu is weakened, it's time to throw a Poke Ball. Ultra Balls are always a good choice for tougher catches.

Keep tossing balls until Mimikyu stays inside. It might take a few tries, so don’t get discouraged.

If you keep failing to catch the Mimikyu, you can always try putting it to sleep, or paralyzing it.

Naming Your New Friend

Congratulations! You've caught a Mimikyu. What are you going to name it?

Maybe something spooky, maybe something cute. Consider the juxtaposition: like naming a puppy "Fang."

Here is a funny consideration. Name your Mimikyu Pikachu, just to confuse everybody.

Enjoy Your New Companion

Now that you have a Mimikyu, take good care of it. They might be a little spooky, but they just want to be loved.

Train it up and use it in battles. Show the world what your little friend is capable of.

And remember, every time you look at your Mimikyu, you'll remember that abandoned supermarket and the thrill of the hunt!

The moral of the story? Even the spookiest places can hold the sweetest surprises. Just keep exploring!

So go forth, intrepid trainer, and find your own Mimikyu! Good luck, and happy catching!
