Every attack printed on the card, with the Energy it asks for.

Mimikyu 96 — every printed attack, its cost and its damage
Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Impersonation	1 Colorless	1	—	—	Discard a Supporter card from your hand. If you do, use the effect of that card as the effect of this attack.
Mischievous Hands	1 Psychic	1	—	—	Choose 2 of your opponent's Pokémon and put 2 damage counters on each of them.

Retreating costs a further 1 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Impersonation1 Energy card

Mischievous Hands1 Energy card

What each attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.

One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.

This card places damage counters, which is not the same as dealing damage

Mischievous Hands puts damage counters on a Pokémon instead of dealing damage to it. The two look alike on the board — one counter is ten damage — but the rules treat them apart: anything that reduces or prevents damage does not stop counters from being placed, and weakness and resistance are not applied to them either.

What is Mimikyu as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Mimikyu 96 is one print of Mimikyu. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.

Mimikyu has been printed 37 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

Mimikyu 96 — frequently asked questions

What is the retreat cost of Mimikyu 96?

1 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

Does Mimikyu 96 deal damage or place damage counters?

It places damage counters. One counter is ten damage on the board, but the two are different things in the rules: weakness and resistance are not applied to counters, and effects that reduce or prevent damage do not stop counters from being placed.

Can an older Mimikyu print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 32 prints listed on this page, 10 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

Can Mimikyu 96 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited and Expanded play. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Mimikyu 96 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
