I've always assumed the physic being strong against poison was a "mind over matter" thing. You could get sick, but with a strong enough will power you can continue going through life as if you weren't.

Also, if you're psychic, you can detect poison.

@themurmeli88 11 месяцев назад

It could also be that psychic is the "mental" power, as in intelligence, and intelligence has created antidotes. Also, it could be related to the "purging" your body of toxins -thing.

@patchworkstudios1868 11 месяцев назад

i figured it was maybe a psychic healer type thing

@RaynmanPlays 11 месяцев назад

I think it has to do with poison being kind of an "unseen enemy"/assassin thing. The whole idea seems to be that psychics can detect assassins. While the Dark type took over this role in some respects from gen 2 onward, they seem to be specifically anti-psychic assassins, which is why they're weak to fighting. So poison type implies physical assassin whereas dark type implies psychic assassin.

@geologist1235 11 месяцев назад

If you think about Psychic type as "Mind type" or "soul type" and Fighting type as "Body type" then the two's relations with bug and poison start to make more sense. If poison is a substance which destroys the body, it wouldn't be very affective against the mind/soul of a person. Bugs on the other hard are piddly and inconsequential when it comes to hurting the body of a human or animal of similar size, but they are quite terrifying, destroying the mind's concentration, rendering psychic type a poor match for bugs.

My theory of why Psychic is super effective against Poison is, that back in Gen. 1 the Psychic Type may have been intended to be something of a Light Type, countering Poison, which was in part a stand-in for the yet nonexistent Dark Type. The Marsh Badge's Japanese name means "Gold Badge" probably because gold as a color is sometimes associated with psychic powers. Then in Gen. 2 they appear to have changed their mind on that, making Dark immune against Psychic.

I did struggle with Roxanne, Tate & Liza and the Elite Four but once I set up, it was just a straight up knockout spree.

@insulttothehumanrace3807 10 месяцев назад

I'm sure there have been other hard Pokemon Tower Rival fights, at some point in gamer history. The reason that fight is seen as super easy is that you can't progress in the tower until you get the Silph Scope from Celadon City, so most players go there first, but the Rival's team is balanced around the player facing him as soon as they reach Lavender Town, which makes him a lot weaker. Also, No Guard only comes with Gen 4, Machop line only has Guts in Gen 3. Lots of people have difficulty remembering the various changes between the generations. This was an incredible video, though. Great effort on your part, particularly with getting past Lance. Hope you've let your nerves rest a bit.

Hey MDB, great Challenge again. I have two ideas for some challenges. How about a Vulpix only run, this one in gen 4. It can learn some decent moves and fire is decently strong in Sinnoh. I think, you might get an interesting run out of it. The second one would be an Eeveelution run. Not to hard i guess, but you need some easier runs from time to time as well. If you want a harder one, you should go for gen 2. You get at maximum 5 and in crystal you should be able to evolve all before the league. The easiest should be gen 4 in Sinnoh. You can get 7 in total with a wide variety.

@marcustrincia9656 11 месяцев назад

Okay, I'm no linguist, but Bulbapedia says the Japanese psychic type translates more accurately to "Esper," or "ESPer" I think, which is someone that has "extrasensory perception." I think the reasoning for psychic being strong against poison is that an ESPer would sense someone sneaky with a poisoned weapon coming after them or be able to perceive the poison in a poisoned food/drink item and thus be able to stop the poisoning before it happens. Just look at Espeon: it’s not just the Psychic Eevee, it’s quite literally the ESP Eevee.

I have been summoned with questions about poison type matchups. I don't remember where I heard this but supposedly, psychic is strong against poison because the mind is stronger than what can affect the body. Poison is weak against ground because hazardous wastes (which make up part of the poison type) are buried underground to neutralize them (even though the ground itself isn't stopping them, they're put in sealed barrels).

Some type matchups follow a logic where you're not supposed to take their names literally, but assume they represent some other similar-enough concept. In the case of Psychic beating Poison, I think I remember an explanation where you're supposed to sorta scale them down, so from psychic powers you're left with willpower or mental fortitude and poison becomes just sickness or disease. Thus, we arrive at the idea that someone with enough willpower can overcome the effects of, say, a fever.

My theory with Psychic type being strong against Poison was because during conception, Psychic types possess mystic and curative powers. Most Pokémon that learned Recover were Psychic types (or evolve into one) in Gen I and II. And Rest is a Psychic type move as well. I kinda understand how Ground RESIST Poison, but I don't get how they hit them Super Effectively.

I'm so used to the pokemon type chart I never stopped to think about how weird the poison type weaknesses are 😂

In medieval Europe, there was a popular form of poison cure called “terra sigilata”, or sealed earth. Essentially, it was a baked clay biscuit with a stamp on it that supposedly imbued it with anti-poison powers. They actually did work against an ingested poison if someone ate it soon after: much like activated charcoal today, the clay would absorb the posion in the stomach and let it pass through without absorbing into the bloodstream.

For Psychic > Poison, I've always thought it was because scientists (so smart people) come up with antidotes and medicine and stuff.

It's funny you mention that about poison. In Temtem, poison is super effective against water types due to the contamination reason. That is an interesting question though. I like Hazama's explanation on it. They say "mind over matter". Now, when I think of Psychic, I think of normal people in real life with abilities like reading minds, seeing into the future and being able to commune with ghosts. This is to explain why dark and ghost are super effective to them. I can't forget about bug though. Maybe they're weak to parasites?

To your type question: Psychic types put up barriers and manipulate over distance, so it's obviously good against smog, acid etc. Ground negates poison, it sucks it up and it slowly vanishes. Over the contamination course the ground can't grow plants. The other type interactions that you mentioned aren't picked for balance reasons. It makes sense, that flying should also be strong against poison and weak against psychic, but they are really picky with their type balance. Don't overthink that part too much.
