Ok. The list of pokemon that can be taught Mimic via Tutor in FRLG is EXTREMELY long. Who CAN'T learn it? Me and my fellow torchics agree on this - Sk8torchic 20:03, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, Kakuna, Ditto, Unown, Wobbuffet, Smeargle, Wurmple, Silcoon, Cascoon, Wynaut, Beldum. They can't learn it. Cipher (Talk) 20:14, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
You missed Magikarp. Other than that, though, nice list of the usual suspects...--Shiningpikablu252 21:40, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Sketch

if one mimiced sketch, what would happen? would the move last after the battle? - Decresc

No.Mimic is the "first move" so when it mimics Sketch it loses it after battle.--DCM((TalkContributions))
Actually, it is possible for Sketch to beat Mimic. Last I checked, both Mimic and Sketch were on the same speed priority. If Sketch is used on a target that hasn't yet moved, it will fail since there's no previous move for Sketch to copy. If one with Mimic moves after one with Sketch, Sketch can be Mimiced. Last I checked, Template:P2 is faster than Template:P2 (although Template:P2 outspeeds the signature Sketcher).
On the same token, if Mimic is the first move used, it will fail and can then be successfully Sketched. --Shiningpikablu252 01:59, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
