Mismagius (Japanese: ムウマージ Mumargi) is a Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
It evolves from Misdreavus when exposed to a Dusk Stone.
Biology
Mismagius is a purple, ghost-like Pokémon. It has a round head with elaborate tufts resembling a human made up witch's hat atop it. The tips of the tufts are paler than most of the body. It has a thin, red mouth that resembles the letter "W." Below its head, Mismagius has a long neck with a round lump midway down. Three, elliptical red spheres surround the upper portion of Mismagius's body. There are extensions on the sides of its lower body with the foremost ones tattered compared to rear ones. This gives Mismagius the appearance of wearing some kind of cloak.
If it is powerful, Mismagius can use advanced incantations for various purposes, such as causing misery or happiness. People that hear its cries will usually receive headaches and hallucinations. As shown in the anime, Mismagius can put its victims to sleep, and cause them to enter a strange dream world without their noticing. If Mismagius falls asleep or is knocked out, the victim will wake up.
In the anime

Major appearances
Mismagius debuted in Malice In Wonderland!, where it was casting multiple illusions that caused Ash and his friends to see the things they desired the most.

In Coming Full-Festival Circle!, Zoey's Misdreavus was revealed to have evolved into a Mismagius. It was used in the semifinals of the Sinnoh Grand Festival alongside Zoey's Leafeon to battle Nando's Kricketune and Lopunny. Mismagius and Leafeon managed to win against Nando based on points.
In Zoroark: Master of Illusions, Grings Kodai has owned a Mismagius since it was a Misdreavus. It served Kodai faithfully and helped him by using its Psychic to prevent Ash from stopping Kodai from taking the energy from the Time Ripple and renewing his ability to hope for the future. Mismagius was later defeated by Pikachu's Volt Tackle.
Two Mismagius appeared in Mystery on a Deserted Island!, where at least one of them was part of the Pirate's Pokémon crew. Multiple Mismagius later appeared on the Deserted Island with the treasure. They were the first Pokémon to attack the group as well as Team Rocket.

Trivia
- Mismagius's base HP, Attack, and Defense stats are the same as Misdreavus's, but its base Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed stats are higher.
Origin
Mismagius seems to be based on the concept of mages and human made up witches. It also shares similarities with banshees. Mismagius's coloration might be a reference to the Nasu-babā, a human made up witch-like yōkai with a distinct purple skin. Its shape also resembles the Teru teru bōzu.
Name origin
Mismagius may be a combination of mis- (bad, wrong) and magus or magic.
Mumargi may be combination of 夢魔 muma (nightmare) and mage or magic.
