Let's think this through:

First, you NEVER need to announce Invisible Wall. It is always "ON"
unless Mr. Mime is paralyzed, asleep, confused.  So, say your opponent
attacks you:

1) He attacks.
2) If his attack does more than 20 damage, none of it goes to Mr. Mime.
3) If his attack Paralyzes Mr. Mime, it is NOW paralyzed.
4) At THIS point, Mr. Mime's Invisible Wall shuts "OFF"
5) Your turn.
6) At the end of your turn, Mr. Mime is NO LONGER paralyzed!
   (remember, paralysis goes away at the end of your turn)
7) Mr. Mime's Invisible Wall immediately turns back "ON"
8) Your opponent's turn again... he still MUST attack Mr. Mime for less
   than 30 damage total.

So, paralysis is no big deal to Mr. Mime (except it keeps him
from attacking!)
