Due to an [[List of battle glitches (Generation I)#Mimic level up glitch|oversight]] in this generation only, if a Pokémon that used Mimic levels up in battle and learns a new [[move]], Mimic's effect is reverted. The move copied by Mimic is lost, and Mimic will be usable again.

If Mimic copies a partial trapping move, and if the target switches out when its PP is 0 and before its duration is over, {{DL|List of glitches (Generation I)|Struggle bypassing|the current PP of the move will roll over to 63}} and full [[PP Up]]s will be applied to it. This increased PP value can be used normally (and, as usual, other moves copied by Mimic will also use this PP value), and the user will retain the full PP Ups indefinitely. However, if the move's PP is healed (for instance, by using a PP-healing item or a [[Pokémon Center]]), then it will return to its legitimate maximum value (with full PP Ups).

Not all moves can be copied. In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Rescue Team]] series, Mimic cannot copy itself, {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Sketch}} or a [[:Category:Moves that call other moves|move that calls other moves]] (except {{m|Sleep Talk}} and {{m|Snatch}}). In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers]] series, the move can now copy {{m|Nature Power}} and {{m|Metronome}}, as well as {{m|Me First}}.
