Stats & Training
Sp. Def and Sp. Atk carry most of Mime Jr.'s stat budget. HP's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Sp. Def EV. Follows a medium-fast 1M XP curve.
Mime Jr. Weakness
Mime Jr.'s Psychic/Fairy typing leaves it vulnerable to Poison, Ghost, and Steel. It shrugs off Dragon-type attacks completely. Filter reduces SE moves damage, further improving the defensive spread. Mime Jr.'s special bulk (base 90 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
