Back-Alley Mr. Mime is the 21st Request in Pokemon Legends: Arceus and tasks you investigating a Mr. Mime who has been spotted around Jubilife Village. This guide will provide tips on how to solve Mr. Mime's invisible puzzle, as well as reveal the rewards for completing the Request further below.

Request #21 - Back-Alley Mr. Mime

This Request becomes available after you've obtained a Mr. Mime, which can be quite a feat in itself. Mr. Mime is found in the Sandgem Flats area of the Obsidian Fieldlands, but frequently puts up invisible walls which make it difficult to battle or catch.

Once you've nabbed a Mr. Mime, head to the Request Board in Professor Laventon's office and accept the quest. You'll learn a Mr. Mime has taken up residence in Jubilife Village and it's making one of the villagers uncomfortable.

Head outside and across the bridge where you'll find Andra waiting by the waterwheel. Speak with him to learn about the Mr. Mime in the area.

He'll point out the Mr. Mime nearby and ask you to investigate it. However, Mr. Mime is up to his usual tricks, and the invisible wall he's miming is actually real, so you won't be able to approach him from the front.

Instead, you'll need to approach it from behind. Interact with Mr. Mime for a short cutscene before it runs away to a new location.

Head towards the quest marker to the right of Galaxy Hall where you'll find Andra waiting again. Speak with him and he'll point out Mr. Mime's location once more. Since the invisible wall is blocking the front, you'll need to sneak around the left side of the Galaxy Hall building.

The problem, however, is that Mr. Mime has set up an invisible wall maze that you'll need to solve to reach it. Start by hugging the wall of the building on the right and walk forward until you hit an invisible wall near the end of the building. Then, turn left 90 degrees and walk forward until you hit another wall. Start walking back towards where you started, hugging the invisible wall until it pops you out by the rocky wall.

Now, run forward until you reach Mr. Mime. Interact with it again and it will run off. Chase Andra and Mr. Mime down to the final location near the front gate.

This puzzle is a bit simpler than the last. Simply walk up to the rightmost wooden post and turn 90 degrees to the right. Walk forward until you're parallel with the tree and turn 90 degrees to the left. Now, approach Mr. Mime and interact with it again.

Another short cutscene will play before this Request is marked as complete.

After braving Mr. Mime's invisible wall puzzles, you'll get two Aux Guards for your efforts.
