The Psychic type is one of the eighteen types. Prior to changes in Generation IV, all damaging Psychic-type moves were special, but they may also now be physical depending on the attack.
Prior to Generation VI, Steel/Psychic types were exempt from Psychic's three weaknesses, but since Steel no longer resists Dark and Ghost, this is no longer the case.
Offense
A drawback of Psychic-type moves is that they do not affect Dark-type Pokémon, although this immunity can be removed with Miracle Eye. The immunity, along with resistances to Psychic, can also be circumvented with coverage moves such as Ground-type attacks.
When Psychic Terrain is in effect, the power of Psychic-type moves are increased by 30% (50% prior to Generation VIII) if the user is on the ground.
