Psychic (Trainer class)

A Psychic (Japanese: サイキッカー Psychicer) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation I games. They were originally only male, but in Generation III, female Psychics started to appear. In Generation VI, the Trainer class once again reverts to all male, having found a female counterpart in s. They appear as young men or young women levitating s with their psychokinetic powers.
When paired with s in Double Battles, they are called s.
As their name suggests, they specialize in Pokémon, though they occasionally also use Pokémon from Generation III onward.
