In her bedroom, there is a [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] with a game that has {{smw|Mario}} with a bucket on his head, a reference to the Japan-exclusive game {{smw|Mario & Wario}}, also developed by [[Game Freak]].

In [[Generation II]], Copycat's Clefairy Poké Doll, given to her by {{ga|Red}} in [[Generation I]], is lost. It is found by a member of the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] who is glad to have it as he loves Clefairy. However, he gives it to the {{player}} and decides to catch one himself. When the player returns to Copycat's house and returns her [[Lost Item|lost doll]], she will give the player a [[Pass]] to ride the [[Magnet Train]] that travels between [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

Between the events of Generation I and Generation II, Copycat's house in Saffron City was torn down to make room for the Magnet Train station. According to her, a ''rail company man'' gave her a train ticket in compensation for the demolition.

===Generation III===
===Generation III===
In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, Copycat has the same role as she did in [[Generation I]]. However, she is now a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach {{m|Mimic}} to a suitable Pokémon instead, due to Mimic no longer being available as a [[TM]].

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Copycat has the same role as she did in [[Generation II]].
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Copycat has the same role as she did in Generation II. However, her Doduo, which evolved into Dodrio in Generation II, has been replaced by a {{p|Banette}}. The sprite of the [[Lost Item]] was introduced in those games, displaying it as Copycat's {{p|Clefairy}} doll ([[File:Bag Lost Item IV Sprite.png]]).


===Generation VII===
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], because battles with wild Pokémon are mostly removed, the player cannot purchase a [[Poké Doll]]. Instead, Copycat will give the {{player}} the [[TM]] for {{m|Substitute}} if they show her a real {{p|Clefairy}} from their [[party]].
The TV in her bedroom now has a [[Nintendo Switch]], and the Mario & Wario reference is changed to reference [[Pokémon Quest]].

===Unused game data===
From [[Generation V]] onwards, the [[Lost Item]] (previously depicted as a {{p|Clefairy}} doll) was changed into a {{p|Mime Jr.}} doll, with a new sprite [[File:Bag Lost Item Sprite.png]] and description: "''The Mime Jr. doll that was lost by the Copycat.''" This is not seen in normal gameplay due this item being unobtainable in those generations.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In the English localization of {{game|Yellow}}, a NPC in the [[Celadon Department Store]] mentions that he's trying to buy a {{DL|Escape item|Poké Doll}} for Copycat in [[Cerulean City]]. However, she lives in [[Saffron City]]. This oversight is not present in the original Japanese releases.
* In {{game|Yellow}}, a male [[non-player character|NPC]] at the [[Celadon Department Store]] 4F says that he will give a [[Poké Doll]] to Copycat (as opposed to the earlier games {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, where he talks about buying a Poké Doll for his girlfriend).
*Copycat has green hair on her [[Generation II]] artwork but brown hair in the latest artwork.
** In the Japanese, French, and Italian versions of Pokémon Yellow, he mentions that Copycat lives in [[Saffron City]]. However, due to a localization error in the English and Spanish versions, he incorrectly says that she lives in [[Cerulean City]]. In the German version, he does not mention where she lives.
*In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Copycat has a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from all the first four [[generation]]s, if counting her [[Pokémon doll]]s:
* Copycat has green hair in her {{TCG|Expedition Base Set}} artwork, drawn by [[Ken Sugimori]], but brown hair in her {{tcg|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} expansion artwork, drawn by [[Kanako Eo]]. This is likely because in [[Generation IV]], Copycat has the appearance of {{tc|Lass}}es, who have brown hair, and in the first two Generations, black was used for a variety of colors, including green.
**A {{p|Clefairy}} doll, representing [[Generation I]];
** Copycat being depicted with green hair may be due to her anime counterpart possessing the same colour hair.
**A {{p|Blissey}}, representing [[Generation II]];
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Copycat has a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from all the first four [[generation]]s, if counting her [[Pokémon doll]]s:
**A real {{p|Banette}} (ironically, a Pokémon that was originally a discarded plush doll) and a {{p|Nosepass}} doll, both representing [[Generation III]];
** A {{p|Clefairy}} doll, representing [[Generation I]];
**A {{p|Cherrim}} doll, representing [[Generation IV]].
** A real {{p|Blissey}}, representing [[Generation II]];
*Copycat has a {{p|Doduo}} in [[Generation I]], {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, which then evolved into a {{p|Dodrio}} in [[Generation II]]. However, her Dodrio was replaced by a {{p|Banette}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.
** A real {{p|Banette}} (ironically, a Pokémon that was originally a discarded plush doll) and a {{p|Nosepass}} doll, both representing [[Generation III]];
*If the Copycat is in fact parroting the {{player}} as she implies and not merely putting words in their mouths, then she acts as the player's proxy by providing some of the only lines of dialogue said by him/her.
