The overall structure of the disguise does resemble Pikachu, but the body is triangle-like shaped it has no feet and no arms, yet some black at the bottom revealing a little bit of the real Mimikyu. The disguise is made of cloth. 2 holes appear in the body of the costume, which are the actual eyes of Mimikyu. it has very crooked ears and the skin is a grayish-beige color. Its "tail" is made of wood and has a grayish-brown color. The disguise's "face" only consists of poorly drawn eyes, cheeks, and a zigzag mouth. Underneath the cloth appears to be a black shadowy mass with two glowing eyes, but it is unknown what it looks like in full, as glimpsing it causes immediate catatonic shock, if not death. In actuality, Mimikyu is only approximately the size of its disguise's torso, as there appears to be nothing organic inside of the rag's head. Apparently, about 20 years ago, it was said that Pikachu is more popular than them, so they dressed up like Pikachu in order to become more popular among Trainers. In the case of one notable Mimikyu in the anime, it has been shown to harbor an immense, almost psychopathic hatred toward all Pikachu, especially Ash's. This may not be the case for all Mimikyu however, and it is likely that different Mimikyu have different attitudes toward Pikachu. Mimikyu is said to be a cursed being, and those who have seen under their rags have all died painfully out of shock. In the anime, Meowth saw Mimikyu's true form several times (though partially) and fainted several times before being returned to his senses soon after. However, most Mimikyu mean no actual harm, and in fact only want to make friends with humans. As such, they hide their true forms under a costume representing what people loved the most; Pikachu, though when attacked, they will show one or both of their claws that hide underneath the cloth they wear and strike back.
