Trivia

  • Mr. Mime originally had four fingers on its hands, but in Generation III it was given an extra finger.

Origin

It appears that it is based on a combination between a clown and a mime - together with a popular pantomime, pretending to be trapped in invisible boxes.

Name origin

Mr. Mime's name simply refers to mimes. Its Japanese name may be a combination of barrier and weird - indicating its ability to erect invisible walls. Its German name comes from the word pantomime.
