Psyduck (Japanese: コダック, Hepburn: Kodakku) (SY-duck[1]) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
Biology[]
Physiology[]
Psyduck is a medium-sized, yellow platypus-like or duck-like Pokémon. Only the feet and bill are tan. The other body parts are all yellow. Psyduck has three black hairs on top of its head, and its hands are always on its head due to its constant headache.
Behavior[]
Psyduck always hold their heads due to the fact that they have a near-constant headache. This makes them seem like they are unintelligent, when in fact they are quite clever and wily.
Natural abilities[]
Psyduck suffers from a constant headache. From time to time, its headache causes it psychic abilities to increase tenfold, but it always forgets when this happens.
Evolution[]
Psyduck evolves into Golduck at level 33.

Pokédex entries[]
- Red and Blue
While lulling its enemies with its vacant look, this wily Pokémon will use psychokinetic powers.
- Yellow
Always tormented by headaches. It uses psychic powers, but it is not known if it intends to do so.
- Gold
It has mystical powers but doesn't recall that it has used them. That is why it always looks puzzled.
- Silver
If its chronic headache peaks, it may exhibit odd powers. It seems unable to recall such an episode.
- Crystal
The only time it can use its psychic power is when its sleeping brain cells happen to wake.

If it uses its mysterious power, Psyduck can't remember having done so. It apparently can't form a memory of such an event because it goes into an altered state that is much like deep sleep.

It is constantly wracked by a headache. When the headache turns intense, it begins using mysterious powers.
- LeafGreen
While lulling its enemies with its vacant look, this wily Pokémon will use psychokinetic powers.

- Alpha Sapphire

- Sun
As a result of headaches so fierce they cause it to cry, it sometimes uses psychokinesis without meaning to.
- Moon
This Pokémon is troubled by constant headaches. The more pain it’s in, the more powerful its psychokinesis becomes.
- Ultra Sun
Using psychokinesis gives it a headache, so it normally passes the time spacing out and doing as little as possible.
- Ultra Moon
It has been found that its brain cells are 10 times more active when Psyduck is experiencing a headache.
- Let's Go, Pikachu!
Always tormented by headaches. It uses psychic powers, but whether it intends to do so is not known.
- Let's Go, Eevee!
Always tormented by headaches. It uses psychic powers, but whether it intends to do so is not known.
- Sword
Psyduck is constantly beset by headaches. If the Pokémon lets its strange power erupt, apparently the pain subsides for a while.
- Shield
As Psyduck gets stressed out, its headache gets progressively worse. It uses intense psychic energy to overwhelm those around it.
- Legends: Arceus
Suffers powerful headaches. If the agony grows too great, Psyduck's latent power erupts, contrary to Psyduck's intent. Ergo, I am exploring ways to ease the pain.

Trivia[]
- Despite having psychic powers and its name having "psychic" as part of it, Psyduck isn't a Psychic-type Pokémon.
- Psyduck and its evolution Golduck are the only Pokémon to have Cloud Nine as an ability and not have it as their hidden ability.
- Junichi Masuda revealed that Psyduck was considered for the secondary role in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee! instead of Eevee, but was not chosen because it was the same color as Pikachu.
- Junichi Masuda himself said that Psyduck is his favorite Pokémon.
- In the Pokémon Ranger games, it is the hardest Pokémon to catch, with even Metagross being easier to catch.
- Although Psyduck and its evolution Golduck can learn Rain Dance, it cannot actually benefit from the move if it has the Cloud Nine ability.
Origin[]
Psyduck is based on a Platypus and a Duck. Given its Japanese name can mean "child duck", its coloration may be based on a duckling. Its cartoonish appearance and feather-covered claws maybe a reference to anthropomorphic ducks such as Donald Duck and Daffy Duck. It may also be based on a rubber duck, since it has a simple body design and yellow coloration.
Etymology[]
Psyduck's name is a combination of the words "psychic" and "duck".
Its Japanese name can be taken to mean "small duck" or "child duck".
