Apparently my liking of the psychic type comes from the plethora of psychic legendaries I enjoy, and I seem to want to list my top 10 favorite Pokemon by type without using legendaries……so my pickings are limited. On the plus side, first rating with a gen 8 Pokemon, so that's neat.
10. Medicham (I really like the monk like ascetics of this Pokemon and have enjoyed using it in a few let’s plays)
9. Sigilyph (This weird looking Nazca line, totem pole bird thing just tickles my fancy in ways that I don’t think I can fully explain. I probably like it because I enjoy historical sites and history in general, I don't know.)
8. Slowking (I have a bit of a fondness for this regal looking Pokemon thanks to the second Pokemon movie)
7. Gardevoir (A Pokemon that can look both like an elegant woman in a gown and a fancy mage? Sign me up!)
6. Metagross (Surprised I enjoyed using this Pokemon as much as I have in the past. I love its robotic, metal golem-like look)
5. Gallade (I enjoy this gallant knight, and was so happy to see Wally mega evolve his in the 3rd gen remakes)
4. Meowstic (I love cats, and Nekomatas are so cool. I prefer the male design to the female one but both are really great)
3. Orbeetle (Wow, this Pokemon shot right up to my #3 spot. Orbeetle was a beast in my very first playthrough of 8 gen, and I absolutely adore it.)
2. Delphox (Another Pokemon with a mage ascetic, and I adore foxes. It also reminds me a bit of mages from the Dragon Age games which is another game series I love)
1. Espeon (Another nekomata inspired psychic type, and an eeveelution to boot, I just can't get enough of this beautiful psychic type)
