Psy?

[@ezrawyvern6795]

Psyduck may have been rather high-maintenance at first but it's evident that high-maintenance doesn't mean impossible. Also, the fact that Misty didn't abandon Psyduck despite having multiple chances to do so and being driven nuts by him numerous times shows how good of a trainer and Gym Leader she is. Paul could certainly learn a couple of lessons from her.

[@ProfessorAlexSilver]

Very true! Though she was stilla bit too rough ahah

Misty: "God this psyduck is so stupid and useless I hate it!" Ash: "Well why don't you get rid of it?" Misty: "No"

To me, Psyduck was one of the best comic reliefs in pokemon ever. I actually thought he was better than pikachu because he gave more personality and laughs to the original seasons of pokemon, that I think he was the real reason pokemon was good to begin with, not pikachu. If Misty had trained him more and taught him calm mind before anything else, he might have been able to use his psychic attacks without getting a headache, and could have defeated pikachu with ease, proving he's better and more powerful than ash's pikachu to this day.

It’s times like this I remember that, as immature as Ash was, Misty wasn’t too far behind. I’ll bet she and Psyduck got along much better after a “Calm Mind” TM was involved.

That would be hilarious if Psyduck learned it

[@kylestubbs8867]

​@@ProfessorAlexSilver​ Got the idea from a fanfic - soon after application, it redeveloped Psyduck's mindscape, allowing him to "distance" most of the head-throbbing energy until he needed it for a Psychic attack, and using the rest of it to speak telepathically. Then Misty brought up swimming lessons. _Er, I mean, Ow the pain the pain my head is aching._

[@narxmagee727]

I loved Psyduck but I hated how Misty treated it. She was always so angry at it (some of that anger not being warranted) only liked when it benefitted her and had multiple chances to let it go if it was so unreliable to her but chose not to and leave it in this love hate relationship. Okay so hear me out on this, I got this idea from a KZbinr and thought it was interesting. What if Psyduck actually evolved into Golduck in that one episode? It became much more powerful and capable but also smarter. Misty loved this change but Golduck thinks about their relationship and how problematic it could be at times. This could lead him to not really listen to Misty anymore doing it's own thing like lounging, basically becoming like Charizard. Misty would be infuriated by this and they would frequently bicker with each other. But in time they would realize the faults both of them made and form a stronger bond because of it. Those are just rough ideas I had that I think would've been interesting to see. Overall I still love Psyduck and it's most recent appearance in Sun and Moon with how mellowed out Misty is about it. I just thought I'd throw an idea I heard out there.

honestly the constant abuse that psyduck suffered from misty always infuriated me.... she hits it,talks down to and insults it and sees it as completely worthless until it displays its psychic powers....after which she is willing to encourege more suffering at its expense to tap into that power. and what pisses me off about this is that (if memory serves) nobody EVER calls her out on this terrible behavior.

[@PixelPandas]

At least it seems like she stopped doing that, although it’s kinda weird how in the first seasons that seemed to happen with a lot of pokemon, Ash threw rocks to a Pidgey, dragged Pikachu to his adventure, and while you can blame that on Ash being dumb I remember stuff like that happening with a lot other characters.

Thanks for the video! I love Psyduck!

Any time 😀

I remember unlocking a Misty-like Psyduck on Pokémon Stadium which had the back then otherwise unobtainable move Amnesia. I'd love for Misty's psyduck to be an event Pokémon: unable to evolve, unable to learn any move other than amnesia and psychic, and capable of reflecting any blow tripple its strength after being beaten 3 to 5 times in a row. That'll be so unique.

Psyduck ftw!

[@pilotpequod]

he'll always be my fave!

[@ProfessorAlexSilver]

He is pretty dope!

psyduck with a headache puts Mewtwo to shame

That would be the battle to end all battles
