I see useful knowledge in your future. Our psychic Pokémon weakness guide is here to tell you all you need to know about those other-worldly ‘mon on your team, though they likely already know the outcome of the battle before it begins, let’s pretend they don’t. These Pokémon can play on the fears of your opponents, but that does little good should their ‘mon be of the spooky variety themselves. Yes, ghosts are just one of the psychic-type weaknesses.

Wait, before we dive into the psychic weaknesses, you should probably find out who the best psychic Pokémon are with our guide. Or, maybe check out our steel Pokémon, dragon Pokémon, fire Pokémon, ice Pokémon, grass Pokémon, water Pokémon, and normal Pokémon guides to see who else should be on your team. There are hundreds upon hundreds of creatures in the Pokédex, and many of them are formidable in the right hands.

Anyway, onto what you need to know about psychic Pokémon weaknesses.

Psychic Pokémon can play on the fears of your opponents, but that does little good should their ‘mon be of the spooky variety themselves. Psychic Pokémon are weak to Ghost, dark, and bug-types.
