Mr. Mime is a great revenge killer due to its overall good Speed and Special Attack, allowing it to pick off threats such as Dubwool, Falinks, Stonjourner, and even some Silvally formes. Its access to Healing Wish allows it to bring in a weakened teammate back to full health and cure any existing status conditions, giving it more utility and team support, while Trick allows it to cripple defensive Pokemon like Type: Null and Musharna. Mr. Mime can also viably run Choice Specs to increase its wallbreaking power, though the Speed boost from Choice Scarf is normally preferred, since Mr. Mime is otherwise outsped by Silvally and Drakloak. Focus Blast or Mystical Fire can be used over a support move to allow Mr. Mime to do more damage to Steel-types like Klang and Mawile. Teleport is another option that allows Mr. Mime to provide a valuable negative-priority pivoting move and gain momentum for an offensive team.
Choice Scarf Mr. Mime itself appreciates strong wallbreakers like Life Orb Falinks, Basculin, and Silvally-Grass so that it can clean up once bulkier Pokemon like Type: Null and Mawile are weakened and faster threats like Manectric or Choice Scarf Leafeon are taken care of. These Pokemon also appreciate Mr. Mime's Healing Wish support so they can come back for a second time late-game, allowing them to be played more aggressively early in the game. Mr. Mime's generally low damage output means it also appreciates help from Spikes setters like Roselia and Crustle to wear down Pokemon it usually can't break through. Setup sweepers like Nasty Plot Gourgeist, Rock Polish Stonjourner, and Shell Smash Crustle also appreciate Mr. Mime's ability to give them a second chance at setting up to sweep with Healing Wish or shut down a defensive Pokemon like Type: Null or Pyukumuku with Trick that could keep them from sweeping. Mr. Mime also appreciates their ability to break through bulkier Pokemon like Mawile and Shiinotic for it to pick off. While Mr. Mime is decently fast, it is still outsped by Pokemon such as Choice Scarf Manectric as well as Flame Charge Silvally formes, so priority users like Hitmontop and Falinks or Speed-boosting sweepers like Rock Polish Stonjourner help take care of these threats. Defensive checks to these Pokemon like Palpitoad, Drakloak, and Pyukumuku also help Mr. Mime handle them. Alternatively, if Mr. Mime is running Trick, its ability to cripple special walls by removing their items allows other specially offensive Pokemon like Raichu and Choice Specs Glaceon to break through them better.
