==Effect==
==Effect==
Psystrike inflicts [[physical move|physical]] damage. Despite being classified as [[special move]], this move calculates damage using the user's {{stat|Special Attack}} and the opponent's {{stat|Defense}} stat (similar to {{m|Psyshock}} and {{m|Secret Sword}}).
Psystrike inflicts damage. Despite being a [[special move]], Psystrike uses the target's {{stat|Defense}} instead of its {{stat|Special Defense}} to calculate damage. Due to being a special move, it uses the user's {{stat|Special Attack}} to calculate damage. It activates {{m|Mirror Coat}} (not {{m|Counter}}), has its damage reduced by {{m|Light Screen}} (not {{m|Reflect}}), activates the [[Maranga Berry]] (not the [[Kee Berry]]), etc.
