His strategy consists of using Alakazam's Damage Swap Pokémon Power to move damage counters to higher HP Pokémon like his Chansey, Snorlax, and Kangaskhan. He then uses Scoop Up to remove the heavily damaged Pokémon to his hand and return them to the Bench, removing all damage from them. He also uses Gust of Wind and Energy Removal to annoy the player, and Gambler and Professor Oak to find cards vital to his strategy. He also has 2 Pokémon Center Cards as a last resort. His strategy constantly draws cards, which if the player can stall him, he can run out of cards in his deck and lose. A deck consisting of Colorless Pokémon with Psychic resistances and/or Gastly and its evolutions, combined with Fighting types without Psychic weaknesses can defeat his Psychic and Colorless Pokémon, respectively.

:''"Hi, I'm Murray, master of the Psychic Club. You're the one who's visiting the clubs to win the medals. How do I know this? Because I'm Psychic! Ok, let me test my new card strategy... against your deck! Are you ready? When you duel me, it's for 6 prizes. Shall we start then!?!"''  

 

 

 

This battle cannot be entered into until the player has visited the [[Lightning Club]] and forced GR-4 to flee. When this battle is first encountered, the battle is forced upon the player by GR-4, who has also taken over the [[Psychic Club]] and put everyone under a trance. This deck remains available to play against until [[Club Master Mitch]] has been freed from the [[GR Fighting Fort]]. Once the second deck is unlocked, this deck can no longer be battled against.

 

===Psychic Elite Deck===

'''Psychic Elite Deck''' (Japanese: '''ちょうエリートデッキ''') is the second deck played by Murray. Defeating Murray while he plays with this deck gets the player one {{GB|2|Team Rocket's Ambition}} booster pack and one {{GB|2|We Are Team Rocket}} booster pack.

 

This deck is not available to play against until [[Club Master Mitch]] has been freed from the [[GR Fighting Fort]]. Once unlocked, this deck will always be played against.
