My Top 6 Favorite Psychic Pokèmon

This Category was a little easier on me then the last two were, picking out Psychics i know and love was easy. I had five really quickly and with some debate number six was added along to the list.

Like the previous two lists there will be no legendaries allowed (so don’t look for Mewtwo here, he is not welcome)

And as Always this is my personal opinion so don’t get all mad. Anyways here it is my Top 6 favorite Psychics

6:  https://i0.wp.com/cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/1/11/203Girafarig.png/140px-203Girafarig.pngGiragarig: This odd little Pokèmon introduced in the second generation is part normal part Psychic and learns dark’s best move naturally, its Normal typing also gives this little guy access to a wide verity of moves like most of the normals have. Its a nice design and its ability to learn dark moves could make it a strong member of the team. I think what works Against this little guy its the fact its stats are about average, and it really doesn’t evolve. Which i think is too bad, if the game gave it an evolution maybe fully to Psychic/dark and capitalize more on its duel personality, I mean look it has two faces, the light and the dark, It is almost there, it just  needs one evolution to fully capitalize on what could be potentially one of the great ones.

Those of you who had one traded to you or won one, never knew the pain of trying to catch one of these suckers. When you first meet this family in the first gen Abra only really knows Teleport, and that is what it does. It see’s you and runs, so you only hope is to be fast enough to put it to sleep, and throw a pokèball at it, or just though the ball at it and hope for the best.  However once you catch him make room for him in your team, because its a good a fast Psychic. Two things work against it now a days for me. One its kind of annoying to evolve, you need it to be kadabra and you need to trade it to a friend, (although modern technology such as wi-fi makes this far less of a hassle) Two it is sort of out classed now by some of the newer Psychic’s out there.  Still it has to be acknowledged as being one of the first.

When Gen three first game out it was just Ralts, Kirlia and Gardevoir, with the forth gen they added a male version Gallade, who is psychic fighting. (Way to turn a fighting weakness into a strength game) In Terms of Stats and what not its about on par with Abra’s family, good solid Psychic pokèmon, they could be better for what the game provides you in that gen its a nice start. Still i would have been happier to have Gallade in the third gen as well, because now i have a male Gardevoir still running around. (i have taken great care to insure that all pokèmon that have been in one of my teams continue to stay with me. i know its just a game but i feel like i owe it to them to keep them around.) Still this is a good family to have on your side, and i enjoyed having them in my team, and look forward to the day that ruby and sapphire are re-released (Like it deserves!)  To play with this family again.

Now he has been featured as one of my Top Pokèmon before, but he deserves a place on this list as well.  Its Steel nature helps him take some hits, but sadly his world can be ruined by a good ground move. That is why giving him Magnate rise is so vitally important. This is also another good Gen Three Pokèmon and the reason my Gardevoir finally got boxed in the game. The only sad thing is you cannot pick him up until after you defeat the elite four the first time, which is too bad because he is a high level evolver you want on your team!

 

2: https://i0.wp.com/cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/3/3a/Bronzor-bronzong.png/200px-Bronzor-bronzong.pngBronzor and Bronzong: When i first met this pokèmon in the forth gen my first thoughts was huh, a floating tambourine (Which is why mine is name Tamber), and once i discovered it was Steel/psychic like my beloved Metagross i though great now they are just ripping him off. Well I was wrong, it took the concept of Steel/Psychic and approved upon it in my opinion. If you can get one that knows levitate then your already a step ahead of poor Metagross. your taking a move that Metagross has to learn in order to protect it, and making it an ability with Bronzor. Plus you get this guy a lot sooner in Gen 4 so you have some time to develop a real relationship with this type. Bronzong game right with me though the elite four and even several end game events. That makes it a little closer to the heart then Metagross. It is really hard not to compare the two, just because they are similar but both unique.  I guess if i have to pick them in a one one one duel like i just have, Bronzong comes out victorious (Sorry Metagross, i still love you.)

However this one is probably my favorite member of the family (wIth umbreon at a close number two).  In gen two there was no Mewtwo, Abra and Hypno made appearances but it was espeon that was top dog (Cat?) in the Psychic world. Unlike the others it learned as Eevee bite, making it quite the threat to the other psychic Pokèmon. Espeon to me over the years has continued to hold up, while it doesn’t have the defense of Metagross or Bronzong it has the speed, and the move set to still make it a pretty decent choice. This one also learns morning sun, a pretty decent healing move that can keep her healthy in a tough battle. This one will probably always be pretty close to my heart, which is why Espeon will always be my top choice in the world of Psychic’s.
