You should try different techniques. In this game, certain techniques inspire the creation of other, more powerful techniques. There's a Glimmer guide in the Guides section that details this. You will also need to fight stronger and stronger opponents in order to inspire the stronger techniques, like you say. In this game, that means that the battle rank has to get higher and higher.
For Mido specifically, his puppets might glimmer a technique from a weapon that another party member is using, IF, said party member is using the same weapon. (This is probably why they can only equip a single weapon. Two weapons might have led to big mimicry chains.) It seems to be that the puppets might sometimes mimic an attack done with the same weapon, even if they already know that attack. This becomes something like an attack bonus.
The thing to note about Kugutsu is that they will mimick any human being with a tech, including enemies. They can learn techs human characters will never learn in this additional manner.
Above, I noticed that the kugutsu would "sometimes" mimic an attack that they already knew. The exact conditions for this, is that, they will mimic an attack that they already know if that attack is of a higher rank. In effect, they're mimicking the higher-rank technique to become more skilled in it. Yeah, it does rank up automatically after that! They successfully mimic the higher rank.
I'm playing with an all-martial arts party of kugutsu and Mido right now, and the number of extra attacks you get from mimicry is crazy. I think I got 8 attacks from a 4-person combo once.
Additionally, I noticed that kugutsu will roll a chance to glimmer a technique another person has if that person is using the same weapon. It does NOT seem to be required for the mimicked person to even use the technique, just to have it in the technique list.
Finally, kugutsu can't mimic custom techs, at least that I've seen. If anything, they might glimmer the original tech from the custom tech, but, I doubt it.
doing an all martial run with kugutsu sounds fun... I might mimic this myself...
Basically performing a tech triggers a roll for glimmering a new tech from a pool based on the tech that was used (and the type of the weapon it was performed with).

Stronger target = Higher chance of glimmering stuff
This should be true for most games in the series. At least from SNES era onwards. Every game adds its own few quirks to that system though.
