If your issue is not able to remotely connect with MySQL on Raspberry Pi, then try below steps. I had the same issue and got it resolved by performing below commands.

sudo leafpad /etc/mysql/my.cnf

2) # bind-address = 127.0.0.1 // comment this line out

bind-address = 0.0.0.0          //add this line just below above line 
3) sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart //restart mysql

later might want to look at https://serverfault.com/questions/139323/mysql-bind-to-more-than-one-ip-address

misc

Restarting The MySQL service

sudo service mysql restart

for python

and that did it the pip now worked then

pip install pymysql
