Biography

Pokémon with various types of mental or magical abilities, they have a tendency to be used whenever a particular Pokémon has a vague sort of magical power that doesn't fit any of the other elemental types. They are usually found in more urban environments. On paper, Psychic-types were supposed to be weak to Ghost and Bug, but both of those types were rare with only weak attacks (not helped by a glitch that made it outright immune to Ghost), and a quarter of all Pokémon in Gen I were part Poison (including the only Ghost-types at the time, as well as the only Bug-types with Bug-type attacks worth a quasi-significant fraction of a fuck). Add on the facts that Psychic-types favored the Special stat, which governed Special Attack and Special Defense, that there were a lot of strong Psychic-types (including Mewtwo, one of the most powerful Pokémon in the series), and that Psychic was only resisted by itself, and Psychic was one of the best types in the game. This reign of terror ended with the introduction of two types, Dark and Steel, both of which were defensively strong against Psychic attacks (Dark-types being flat-out immune, as well as offensively strong against Psychic-types), the introduction of better Bug and Ghost moves, and splitting apart the Special stat into Special Attack and Special Defense. Furthermore, Psychic is only resistant to itself and Fighting, making it the second-worst defensive typing after Ice. Needless to say, the Psychic-type is no longer a Game-Breaker. Nonetheless, Psychic is the type with the most Legendary and Mythical Pokémon associated with it, with all generations having at least two of them being at least part Psychic, with the exception of Gen VI (which only had one). Its also the third type to be paired with every other type after Flying and Water with the introduction of Poison/Psychic Galarian Slowbro in Sword & Shield's Isle of Armor DLC.
