Mimikyu's bad touch location is its true body underneath the disguise


* CuddleBug: It's the only Pokemon in Pokemon Refresh that doesn't have a displeased reaction to anything and will happily let you pet it any way you like. Given its lonely demeanor, this makes sense.



* DesperatelyCravesAffection: Most Pokemon have a spot where they [[HatesBeingTouched hate being touched]] or an action that annoys them in Pokemon Refresh. Mimikyu doesn't and will show affection no matter how you interact with it. [[TearJerker *sniff* Poor thing...]]

** Tapu Fini is '''Melancholic'''. It is largely emotionless and tends to avoid putting itself in danger, preferring to make its enemies destroy themselves. It tends to have a [[HumansAreBastards cynical opinion of humans]], thus hiding itself away and making them prove themselves worthy of its aid.

* BraggingRightsReward: Magearna can be scanned in at any time with a QR Code, but if you're hoping to have it in the main story, tough luck; you won't get access to it until you've already beaten the game, making it more of a championship trophy (albeit one that can kick ass in rematches). Still, at least you don't need to have completed the PlayableEpilogue to get it, unlike Necrozma.



* ChromeChampion: A legendary part Steel-type whose shiny coloration is its original gold paint job.

to:

* ChromeChampion: A legendary part Steel-type whose shiny coloration is Mythical Pokémon, though the "chrome" comes from it losing its original gold paint job.



* DevelopersForesight: Though it's locked into being non-shiny like many other Legendary/Mythical Pokémon, Magearna does have a shiny model... and it's exactly the same as its regular palette. However, this is to be expected; it lost its paint job years ago, and thus there's no alternate color. Notably, Original Color Magearna ''also'' has a shiny sprite, and it's black.
* DummiedOut: Magearna's original colors, first seen in ''Anime/PokemonVolcanionAndTheMechanicalMarvel'', are present in ''Sun and Moon'' with a unique Pokédex entry, but there is currently no method of getting this variant.



* KamehameHadoken: It can use Aura Sphere. This is fairly impressive, considering it's a robot when all other users of the move (even fellow artificial Pokémon Mewtwo) are organic creatures.



* PaintItBlack: A shiny Original Color Magearna is painted black instead of red.



* PoisonousPerson: Noticeable aversion. Magearna is the only mon capable of learning Technical Machine moves outside of its normal level-up pool that cannot be taught to know the near-universal Toxic.

* LoopholeAbuse: Since Komala is treated as always asleep, it can always use Sleep Talk, which randomly uses a move from its three remaining moveslots while asleep. This doesn't seem too amazing until you realize that this lets you lock the Choice items (which normally only let you use a single move in exchange for a stat boost) onto Sleep Talk, which gives it randomized access to the rest of its moveset while still keeping the item's stat boost. With base 115 Attack, [[KillerRabbit that's nothing to laugh at]].

* MagikarpPower: Downplayed. While Charjabug has decent enough stats (a higher base stat total than the fully evolved Butterfree, in fact), its Special Attack is nothing compared to Vikavolt's. You're likely to get a Charjabug before you leave the second island (it's unavailable on the first), but it only evolves into Vikavolt at Vast Poni Canyon, one of the final areas of the game. You can mitigate this by giving it an Eviolite and heightening its already decent defenses, however.

I'm pretty certain that Fragile Speedster have nothing to do with type weaknesses.


* FragileSpeedster: Despite having amazing health and Shadow Shield to soften the blows it takes at full health, Lunala's defenses aren't high enough to assist with those perks or its terrible defensive typing, where both of its weaknesses are double weaknesses and only having one resistance apart from the Ghost-type's immunity to Normal and Fighting attacks. Though Solgaleo has the same defenses but swapped around, being part-Steel gives it a number of resistances and usually allows it to endure more blows than Lunala.



** Solgaleo and Lunala's genders are unlisted and they won't breed in the nursery, but the Pokédex states they're gender counterparts and post-game they can be brought together to produce another Cosmog.

While Cosmoem has the saving grace of having high defences, Cosmog has meager stats all around with a BST of only 200.
