==Effect==
===In battle===
====Generation VII====
If a Mimikyu in its Disguised Form is hit by a damaging move or hits itself in , Disguise prevents the move from calling the damage formula. The move will thus deal no damage, and type effectiveness will not be calculated (except in case of immunity, which prevents Disguise from triggering since the move will not hit in the first place). When this effect activates, the message, "Its disguise served it as a decoy!" is displayed, Mimikyu changes to its Busted Form, and finally the message, "<Name>'s disguise was busted!" is displayed. If Mimikyu's type had been changed beforehand, it is restored to when it changes to its Busted Form.
Mimikyu remains in Busted Form if it is switched out, but reverts to Disguised Form outside of battle. If a Mimikyu faints and is revived, it will be revived in its Disguised Form and Disguise will be able to activate again.
Disguise will not protect against entry hazards or weather damage. Disguise activates at the first strike of a multistrike move such as and will not block damage from remaining strikes. Disguise only blocks the damage from moves; additional effects of damaging moves like from are not prevented. If Mimikyu has a , the substitute will take damage before Disguise.

A held Air Balloon will be popped even if Disguise negates the damage. Busting a Disguise with or results in the Rollout storage glitch.
