Mind Temple: the Psychic Rift arena

Watch for psychic attacks covering wide areas. Leave the warning zone early and avoid letting the temple’s pillars block your escape.

23 legendary entries can use this arena. A dual-type legendary can use either type’s arena and keeps both types for damage matchups.

Psychic and run weather

Check attack damage separately from the partner’s weather protection. The table shows modifiers from the checked implementation; a second type also determines protection.

WeatherAttack damage of this typeAdditional effect
Sandstorm×1Weather damage unless the partner also has Rock, Ground or Steel.
Snowfall×1Weather damage and up to 10% slower movement unless the partner has Ice as its other type.
Fog×1.3This damage modifier applies to attacks from players and enemies.

Multipliers shown at full weather intensity; they transition gradually as weather starts and ends. ×1 means no change to this attack type’s damage. Weather protection checks both of the partner’s types.

Psychic-type questions

What is Psychic super effective against?

Against a single defending type: Fighting, Poison. Each advantage deals ×1.6. For a dual-type target, multiply both modifiers up to ×2.4.

Which attacks threaten a Psychic partner?

A single-type partner takes ×1.6 from: Bug, Ghost, Dark. A second type can change the result.

How do Psychic moves evolve?

Reach maximum move level, obtain its card and choose the evolution when offered. Confusion → Psyshock (Reflexes); Psybeam → Future Sight (Power); Psychic → Expanding Force (Magnet); Psycho Cut → Psychic Fangs (Reflexes); Extrasensory → Psywave (Armor); Mist Ball → Luster Purge (Reflexes).

Is base cooldown the final attack interval?

No. Upgrades modify cooldown. Charge time, duration and behavior also depend on the move; the listed base values come from the checked code and do not guarantee a final attack cadence.
