Move · #980

Psychic

Special TM

Psychic-type special move - in Generation I the physical/special split is decided by the move type, not the move itself. Power 90, Accuracy 100%, PP 10. Taught by TM29 (single use in Generation I). Psychic is the dominant attack of Generation I: nothing resists it except Psychic itself, and Ghost moves cannot punish it because of a type bug.
