How to Catch Mimikyu in Pokémon Sun and Moon
Mimikyu was introduced as a new species of Pokémon for the Nintendo 3DS game Pokémon Sun and Moon. It is a unique ghost and fairy type, and very well known for its resemblance to Pikachu. This article will show you how you can catch your very own Mimikyu in Pokémon Sun and Moon.
Steps

Know where Mimikyu can be found. There is only one known place where Mimikyu can be found, and that's the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart, the site of Acerola's ghost trial, on Ula'ula Island. Mimikyu has a pretty low encounter and capture rate of 5 percent and 45 percent respectively, so be prepared beforehand, with a lot of patience, and make sure that you have a lot of pokéballs on hand.

Beat the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart trial if you haven't already. This step is vital, because you cannot catch any Pokémon in the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart until you have beaten the trial completely.

Walk around the Megamart for awhile until you encounter a Mimikyu. As stated above, Mimikyu has a pretty low encounter rate of 5 percent, so be prepared to run into a lot of Haunters and Gengars before you run into one Mimikyu. There is no grass in the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart, but just walk around and you will get encounters with wild Pokémon as you go.

Lower the HP of the Mimikyu to at least half before you try to catch it. Once it is at half, use Pokéballs such as Great Balls or Ultra Balls. If it is nighttime in your game, then use a Dusk Ball, because Dusk Balls are more effective for catching Pokémon when it is nighttime in your game. If you want to get the battle over with, you could also attempt to throw a Quick Ball once the battle first starts.

Enjoy your Mimikyu. Give it a nickname and/or add it to your party, if you wish to.
