:::I just re-watched the episode (EP022) and it indeed says that.  The exact quote from the dub -- "You can't control a Psychic-type Pokémon without using telekinetic powers."  However, it seems that he's referring to ''telepathic'' powers, not ''telekinetic'' powers like he says (as it makes no sense that being able to bend spoons and move things with your mind has any impact on controlling Pokémon).  Or maybe what he's saying is that the Psychic-type Pokémon is the one using the telekinetic powers, but that's not what it sounds like.  But anyway, this quote, and the fact that Sabrina has an obvious telepathic link to her Abra / Kadabra leads me to believe that you must be a psychic to control a Psychic-type Pokémon.

::::I always found this intersting as well. Also, in the games, all of the Psychic users either have some type of psychic ability or have an extremely high I.Q. The anime seemed to do this with Sabrina's Abra and said this, but quickly discarded it, I assume so they could show all the Pokemon in the episodes. I suggest adding this in the Trivia section or something instead of adding a whole other section. ^-^ I mean, the player character in the games also has no psychic abilities, but they can use Psychic-type Pokemon without any difficulty at all.

== I have some questions regarding one trivia. ==
[*]All of Psychic's weaknesses (Bug, Ghost and Dark) are based on typical fears. This is most likely because fears can manipulate the mind. Hence, the Ability Rattled.
Alright, let me ask something. If the types psychic is weak it is really based on typical fears, then why aren't psychic-types weak to fire or water? There are some people who fear fire or water. How about ice?
I'm sorry, but I'm just confused on what this trivia means. [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|TheBlazikenMaster]] ([[User talk:TheBlazikenMaster|talk]]) 23:50, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
