While plenty of Pokemon were cut from the Pokedex in Sword and Shield, tons of fan favorites made their way to the Galar region. Charizard, of course, along with others like Fantominus and other Gen 1 characters. And it will be a very surprising day when Pikachu doesn't appear in a Pokemon game.

How and where to find Mimiqui
You won't find Mimiqui hanging around everywhere. In fact, everything has to be perfect for this very rare and sought-after Pokémon to appear. First, you need to complete the main story and reach the final credits. This is important because it requires the weather to be foggy, which is a feature that unlocks after doing this. Once this is done, you may need to use our method to change the weather. Fog is already pretty rare, make sure you take note and that's where you need to focus.
The Giant's Mirror in the Wilderness is where to find Mimiqui in Sword and Shield. Rumor has it that he will appear in adjacent regions of the Wild Area, but no firm confirmation has come through. If the weather in the Mirror of Giants, which is in the very north of the region, is foggy but be prepared to work. Mimiqui is an exceptionally rare spawn, so be prepared to wander around, looking for him to appear in tall grass.
In short, watch for foggy weather in the Mirror of Giants located north of the Wild Area. Get there and be prepared to wander for a long time, possibly hours. Follow these tips on where and how to find Mimiqui in Pokemon Sword and Shield and you will eventually get it.
