Question

What Pokémon aren’t Psychic-type, but can learn damaging Psychic-type moves and are obtainable in-game in DPP?

Comments

Every Pokemon can learn Hidden Power and you can grind to get whatever Pokemon you want with Psychic hidden power.

---

Do you really want every Pokemon that's obtainable in DPPt or only the ones on the regional Pokedex?

---

I think they only want Pokemon you can catch in DP

**Pokemon in Platinum that can use Psychic type moves**
This will only be covering fully evolved Pokemon (No mythicals or Legendaries), and will cover moves with decent BP.

***Pokemon That learn Psychic-***
Blissey
Gengar
Lucario
Dusknoir
Electivire
Snorlax
Togekiss
Umbreon
Froslass
Honchkrow
Porygon-Z
Yanmega
Clefable
Mismagius
Spiritoumb
Jynx
Lapras
Magmortar

***Pokemon that learn Future Sight***
Dusknoir
Togekiss
Absol
Azumarill

***Pokemon that learn Extrasensory***
Roserade
Togekiss
Exploud

***Pokemon that learn Zen Headbutt and Psycho cut***
Blissey
Lucario
Snorlax
Togekiss
Crobat
Porygon-Z
Absol (Only one on this list that can learn Psycho Cut)
Blastoise
Metagross

***Best Options For Psychic-Attackers***

Special Moves - Porygon-Z/Gengar/Togekiss. Porygon-Z has more punch, Gengar is faster, and Togekiss can actually take a special hit.
Physical moves - Metagross/Absol. Both of them hit really hard, but Absol trades 5 points of attack for 5 points of speed.

Why are you ignoring a bunch of Pokemon and moves that the question never asked you to ignore?
@therence Do you want me to put your question back on the unanswered list?

---

@sumwun Judging by the question, i'm assuming they wouldn't want a Hoothoot for the whole game. I filtered out legendaries because of obvious reasons, and picked Pokemon that could actually work inside of a playthrough.

---

Literally nobody's gonna be like "yeah i'd rather have this Wormadam instead of a Gengar, yeah makes sense, no flaws here"

---

This answer is still wrong if you think it's more helpful than a correct answer. If you really want to go that way, I can argue that psychic attacks are useless on almost all of these Pokemon because their STAB moves already do plenty of damage against fighting and poison opponents. Literally nobody's gonna be like "yeah i'd rather have an extrasensory Roserade instead of giga drain, petal dance, sludge bomb, shadow ball, growth, stun spore, and leech seed, yeah makes sense, no flaws here"

---

Fair point, but the OP didn't actually state how powerful and on what specific Pokemon they wanted it, while it was probably for Poison and Fighting Pokèmon, they didn't specifically say it was for those two. If they had (or will reiterate), I'll just remove those options from the list

---

The OP also never stated he/she/they/it didn't want to use an extrasensory Hoothoot.

---

Should this be hidden for being an incomplete answer?
