==Trivia==
* Both Mirror Coat and its counterpart {{m|Counter}} do not affect one type of Pokémon each; Mirror Coat does not affect {{type|Dark}} Pokémon and Counter does not affect {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
** This means that neither {{p|Sableye}} nor {{p|Spiritomb}} are affected by Counter or Mirror Coat.
* In [[Generation II|Generations II]] and [[Generation III|III]], this move cannot reflect {{m|Hidden Power}}, regardless of its type. This is because Hidden Power was always determined by the game to be {{type|Normal}}, so even if it was a [[Special move|Special]] type, like {{t|Ice}} or {{t|Grass}}, Mirror Coat would always fail against Hidden Power, while Counter would always reflect it.
