We found our Mimikyu in Tagtree Thicket, but it is a rare spawn, making it hard to find. It is even harder to find one in East Province, Area Two, so you will have to look for quite some time to find one. In North Province, Area Two, you can encounter a Tera Mimikyu in the wild. Keep in this will be a high-level Pokémon, so it will be difficult to catch.

Mimikyu is a great Pokémon thanks to its Ghost/Fairy-type combination and its ability Disguise, making it good for competitive and Tera Raids. This allows it to take one hit before receiving damage, which can lead to powerful combos. If you find yourself up against one, remember this before using your strongest attacks.
