-In early copies of the Japanese {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, a [[Mimic glitch|glitch]] exists. To trigger the glitch, a Pokémon must use Mimic to copy and use {{m|Transform}}, then faint.

+===Generation IV===
+Mimic now bypasses {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit, unless the opponent is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}.
