Thanks! Looks like a long way to go before I see my Mega Metagross ^^ Hopefully this club will be very active when it happens.
I'm opposite on the Mewtwo's mega, however, preferring X over Y. Something about the X form getting 'armor' just tells you that he's about to wreak havoc. Y form does look more like Psychic, but its head is kinda creeping me out. |

Oh and I forgot to mention that the first five member discount applies as long as they are part of this club, it also means even if you have as much as six partners the discount apply. Another good news is, the discount applies to those Pokémon with three stages evolution! To each on their own. :) Some like it hot while some like it not. {XD} |
What are you going to change for that Mega Evolution you have chosen from the main topic?
Nothing, Mewtwo's Mega forms are perfect. Your least favorite Psychic-type Mega Evolution, why? Mega Slowbro, it looks more like a turtle than psychic Pokémon. |
That's all for our current topic. :) Everyone is free to start a new topic, if no one is I'm going to create a new topic tomorrow around this hour. ;)

New topic:
Your favorite Psychic-type attack? why? My favorite is Psychic, it's powerful and really useful. |
I'm really fond of using Calm Mind, especially when I'm using bulky Psychic types like Reuniclus. I spam it for about 2-4 times - along with gallons of Moomoo milks - then just use Psychic on everything. Sometimes I combine it with Trick Room(for Reuniclus of course), so that it's sure win. Yup, all-out offense and risky, but it suits my style.

Tate and Liza have demonstrated how fearful can Calm Mind get though Double Battle (in RS). The move Psychic was originally my most and only favorite Psychic-type move. I recall my Espeon in Silver, spamming the move in Elite Four. :') Then Psyshock came in Black and White. I was intrigued by the move description and I decided I wanted to try it and then I ended up loving it! Additionally, Psystrike, which is Mewtwo's signature move that made its debut in Generation V, is a stronger version of Psyshock! Quote:
Reuniclus is made for Trick Room teams. It becomes Alakazam-like, nearly-unstoppable, if it gains the priority to move in battles! |
Your favorite Psychic-type attack? why?
My fave Psychic-type move has to be the good old Psychic, because of its reliability and power. Psybeam is another close one, thanks to the fact I love its attack animation, same with Psyshock. For status moves, Calm Mind because it can make a user become potent when it gets those boosts going. |
Your favorite Psychic-type attack? why?
Psychic is definitely my go to for sure, it's accurate and strong. Psycho Cut is a unique move as well and I use it on my Gallade. |
Nickname - CharmedGothet
Partner Pokemon - I was going to say Ralts but since that is a very popular choice I'll say my second favourite unevolved Psychic Type Gothita. Reason for joining - A lot of my favourite Pokemon are Psychic Type (Gardevoir, Gothitelle, Starmie and Gallade). Indeed I went out of my way to get the 'Psychic Type Champ' medal in White 2 using the aforementioned Pokemon and Latias. Favourite Psychic move - Hypnosis, the opponent can't do anything if asleep and you can boost your stats or use Dream Eater whilst they sleep. Also I think it's the only Psychic move that affects Dark Types. |
- Your nickname: Tigroid (In-Game I use Amon, though)
- Your Psychic-Type Club-Campaign Partner: I choose Exeggcute - Reason for joining the club: Psychic-Type pokemon are my favorite type. With Exeggutor, Metagross, Gardevoir, and more the Psychic-Types have great power and diversity. What is your favorite Psychic attack and Why? I think I'll stick with Psychic. I know it seems kind of dull, but it has high power and accuracy and it's easily available via TM. Is that all I have to do to join? |

And wow I'm surprised with the amount of people favoring the move Psychic, I was expecting Psyshock or even Psystrike! {XD} To celebrate our Psychic Club going steadly, members who replied to our current topic are going to receive a Leaf Stone and a Dawn Stone! ^_^ If you meet the criteria to evolve your Pokémon, feel free to ask me to update your team list as I won't force/automatically evolve your Pokémon. ;) But they cannot devolve so think carefully whether or not to evolve. |
Psychic Type moves that affect Dark Types -
Hypnosis, Trick, Trick Room, Magic Room, Skill Swap, Telekinesis, Wonder Room, Power Split...More moves than I thought at first. Might be a few others. |

Thanks! And I'd like to evolve my exeggute, Juggernaut, please. |

Let me add on for those who are interested: Guard Split, Heal Block, Heal Pulse, Imprison, Kinesis, Magic Coat, Mirror Coat, Psycho Shift and Role Play are Psychic-type moves that affects the opposing Dark-type Pokémon. Miracle Eye also enables any Psychic-type offensive move to hit the targeted Dark-type Pokémon. Additionally Future Sight used to be only Psychic-type offensive move that can hit Dark-type Pokémon, before it gained the same type attack bonus in Generation V. For those Psychic-type move that can also directly affect the Dark-type team mates: Ally Switch, Healing Wish, Heart Swap and Lunar Dance. Finally a Psychic-type move that affect the whole battle arena: - Light Screen (weakens Special moves; including Dark-type moves. Protects Dark-type that are under the protection of Light Screen); - Reflect (weakens Physical moves; including Dark-type moves. Protects Dark-type that are under the protection of Reflect); - Gravity (It affects those floating Dark-type like Hydreigon as well as those Dark-type that are part Flying-type like Yveltal); Quote:
Main topic: Your favorite Psychic-type attack? Why? Sub-topic 1: Which Psychic-type status move are you fond of?* (Since Dragoz answered with a Status move he has a special question instead, though is is not compulsory to answer the sub-topics for everyone). Sub-topic 1 for Dragoz: What is your favorite Psychic-type offensive move? Why? Sub-topic 2: If there is something you can change from your favorite Psychic-type offensive move and status move, what changes are they? (It doesn't matter if you're going to make it overpower, they just need to make sense/) Sub-topic 3: Your least favorite Psychic-type move? Why? Everyone is very welcomed to add a sub-topic (after answering the main and sub-topics) to extend the longevity of the topic, as well as to keep the Club active! |
@Unapologetic Sunflower
There's a lot more moves that affect Dark Types than I thought. Answers for topic Favourite Psychic Move - Hypnosis. Favourite Psychic Offensive move - Psychic. It's very reliable and all my Psychic types have that move other than Gallade who has Psycho Cut. Favourite Status move other than Hypnosis - Calm Mind. Whilst the opponent is sleeping I like to boost my stats. If I was going to change anything about the moves - I'd make Psychic a touch stronger and Hypnosis have 100% accuracy. Least favourite Psychic Move - I don't really have one but I am not a huge fan of Magic Room as it does not stop the effect of mega stones I think. |
Main topic: Psychic
Sub-topic 1: Hypnosis Sub-topic 2: I would give Psychic a 15% of causing paralysis. And I would give Hypnosis 100 accuracy. Sub-topic 3: Your least favorite Psychic-type move? Confusion. Why? It's not that I dislike the move, but I find that it's underpowered. |
If I was going to change anything about the moves...
Same reasons as Charmed. I'd make Hypnosis way more accurate than it currently is because the accuracy it has right now is pretty unacceptable. Least favourite Psychic-type move? I think Telekinesis. One of those boring, gimmicky double/triple battle moves that I really cannot find a use for. |
Quote:
I just looked at Bulbapedia and compiled them on my own! {XD} Reuniclus, Gardevoir are part of those Pokémon that can make the opponent sleep while boosting their stats. :) ANd Gardvoir, is part of your fave Psychics! ^_^ Quote:

If no one's making a new topic, I'll make one tomorrow on Saturday (of my timezone)!~ |
@ Unapologetic Sunflower
It would have been very difficult to list all the moves off the top of your head. Oddly I thought only 10 or so Psychic moves affected the Dark type. I always have a Gardevoir on my team (Other than Gen 5 where Ralts was only obtainable by a long end game side quest.) but have never used Reuniclus using Gothitelle instead. Hypnosis and Calm Mind are normally on my Gardevoir. On a suggested topic for next time or the time after: 1. There are many Pokemon, which current non-Psychic type Pokemon should be Psychic Type and why? 2. Which current Psychic Pokemon should not be Psychic Type and why? |
1. There are many Pokemon, which current non-Psychic type Pokemon should be Psychic Type and why?
Lucario, it can sense auras which is psychic ability. 2. Which current Psychic Pokemon should not be Psychic Type and why? Exeggutor, it looks so much like a palm tree that it should be pure grass type. |
Quote:
Try Reuniclus on your next play through, it works well in a Trick Room team as well! Those are interesting topics! Great job, please keep up the great work. :) Quote:
I agree with that! Exeggutor looks nothing like a Psychic, and the type Psychic is more of a burden than a help to that poor coconut tree. Current topics: 1. There are many Pokemon, which current non-Psychic type Pokemon should be Psychic Type and why? Golduck! This Pokémon should be at least part-Psychic! It could be a formidable foe 2. Which current Psychic Pokemon should not be Psychic Type and why? It's a tie between three Pokémon Lugia, Celebi and Victini. Lugia should be Dragon/Water as nothing from Lugia looks like a Psychic. Celebi should be Grass/Fairy for obvious reasons. Victini should be a Fire/Fairy, he looks like a fairy that uses the power of fire. |
Subtopic 1: Can't decide on this, hahahaha. Psychic and Psyshock are like twins to me, my Reuniclus wouldn't be complete without both of them. I mean, sometimes you encounter a Blissey that just resists Psychic, so you have to go Psyshock it. And then there are those like Golem or Steelix, who resist Psyshock, so you have to Psychic them. But I guess I'll join the majority and go with Psychic. It has a slightly higher power compared to Psyshock after all, and a lot of pokemon can learn it.
Subtopic 2: I'd make Psychic have a small chance(5% maybe?) to cause effects depending on its environment. You know, like Secret Power? Example: If the area you're fighting on is rocky, it has a small chance to make the enemy flinch. I always imagine Psychic like the one in the anime, where they fly/float. And in battles ingame, I imagine the enemy being slammed to its environment. As for Calm Mind, I think it should remove all stat reductions on Sp. Def/Sp. Atk, then increases them. I mean, what if you got those stats reduced sharply prior to using Calm Mind? Subtopic 3: Oh my god, Kinesis. Signature move, indeed, but it lowers accuracy by one stage. Pfffft. It's not even as accurate as Sand-attack! Maybe I'd consider it somewhat worthy if it had 100% accuracy and sharply reduces accuracy. It doesn't suit Alakazam's line, since they're made more for offense, and this move is for defense...sloppy as well with the 80% accuracy. Oh look! New topics! There are many Pokemon, which current non-Psychic type Pokemon should be Psychic Type and why? I'd say Venomoth. It learns Psychic, Confusion, and Zen Headbutt. Sabrina also uses it. Which current Psychic Pokemon should not be Psychic Type and why? Unown. Unown feels more like a random type to me. I think it should be based on what type its Hidden Power is, since that's the only move it learns. |
There are many Pokemon, which current non-Psychic type Pokemon should be Psychic Type and why?
I'm with Unapologetic on Psyduck/Golduck there. With the fact it learns some Psychic moves you'd think it should be a Psychic-type but no it isn't. Which current Psychic Pokemon should not be Psychic Type and why? I'm with whoever said Exeggcute/Exeggutor. I feel that its design doesn't really scream Psychic-type at all. |
Quote:
I had that idea of flinching withthe move Psychic as well, just look at how Sabrina's Kadabra tortured Ash's Pikachu! {XD} No, I shouldn't be laughing, ahem! *uses Fake Tears instead* By the time Kinesis shows its effect, Le Moustache-san has been murdered with Crunch already.~ That idea about Unown is certainly interesting! I'm actually in it. |
