How to get Mime Jr & Mr Mime in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl

Lots of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl trainers will struggle to evolve Mime Jr or get a Mr Mime in-game, but the process is made much simpler if you know where to go and what to do. 

The mime Pokemon are unique in appearance, without question, though they also have a really particular way to evolve as well.

It doesn’t evolve evolution stones, and certainly not trading, though there are some specific Sinnoh region locations you will need to visit to check both of these off your Pokedex.

Mime Jr is available to catch in both Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. You can find it via the Pokemon’s spawn locations in the Grand Underground. Here is how to unlock it.

1. Load up Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl. 
2. Visit Pastoria City.
