Mr. Mime (Japanese: バリヤード Barrierd) is a dual-type Psychic/Fairy Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation VI, it was a pure Psychic-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Mime Jr. when leveled up while knowing Mimic.

Biology

Mr. Mime is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Blue growths resembling clown hair extend from the sides of its pale pink head, and there is a magenta circle on each cheek. Its jaw is curved inward, resembling the mouth of a wooden dummy. It has a round, white body with a magenta spot in the middle, light pink arms and legs that connect to its body via magenta spheres, and small white coverings over its knees. Its white hands resemble gloves with magenta pads on the tips of its white fingers and its dark blue feet curl upward at the tips.

From birth, this Pokémon is an excellent pantomime. As it matures, it gains the ability to solidify air molecules by vibrating its fingertips. This ability allows it to create invisible objects with its gestures. It punishes those who interrupt its act or are not impressed by slapping them. Mr. Mime is usually very rare, but can be found in suburban areas. In the past, Substitute was its signature move.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Mr. Mime in Pokémon Adventures

Mr. Mime was first seen under the control of Sabrina in Peace of Mime, generating a Light Screen to seal off the whole of Saffron City. The same Mr. Mime was seen again during the Gym Leader faceoff in the Indigo Plateau, using its miming powers to trap Bugsy within walls created from solidified air, and defeating his Heracross with a Psybeam.

Emerald has a Mr. Mime that first showed up in Lemme at 'Em, Lapras!, as a rental Pokémon. He later joined his team after being calmed.

Crystal was revealed to have added a Mr. Mime, nicknamed Mymee, to her team prior to The Final Battle III in order to imitate Sabrina's tactics.

A Mr. Mime appeared in Out-Odding Oddish, under the ownership of a Pokéathlon participant.

Valerie owns a Mr. Mime in Quilladin Stands, where it was used to help stop the Ultimate weapon from activating.

Trivia

• The Mr. Mime obtained through an in-game trade in Pokémon Red and Blue was nicknamed Marcel. This may have been a homage to the late Marcel Marceau. However, this was not kept in Pokémon Yellow or Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen; the same Mr. Mime is nicknamed Miles in Yellow, and Mimien in FireRed and LeafGreen.
• In all official artwork and in-game sprites prior to the release of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Mr. Mime only had four fingers. However, Mr. Mime has always had five fingers in the anime.

Origin

Mr. Mime appears to be based on a combination of a clown, a mime, and the pantomime of pretending to be trapped in invisible boxes. Its feet also appear to be reminiscent of the various hook-toed shoes worn by jesters. Its jerky animations and jaw suggest that it may also be a tsukumogami of a jointed puppet, dummy, or doll.

Name origin

Mr. Mime is mime with an English male honorific. This gendered name was assigned before the gender mechanic was introduced in the games and is not reflected by the species' gender ratio.

Barrierd may be a combination of barrier (referring to the mime trait of 'being trapped' behind invisible walls) and weird or barricade.
