==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Psyduck is a yellow {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a {{wp|duck}} or a bipedal {{wp|platypus}}. On top of its head are three thick strands of black hair, and it has a wide, flat cream-colored beak. Psyduck's eyes seem vacant and have tiny pupils. Its legs and tail are stubby, and it has cream-colored webbed feet. There are three claws on each of its hands.
Psyduck resembles a yellow duck or platypus with a vacant stare. It has three small tufts of black hair at the top of its head. It walks on its {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|hind legs, has a stubby tail,}} and has arms rather than wings. Its arms are useful in using its powerful psychic abilities. Its appearance, according to the Pokédex, is meant to trick enemies into thinking it is weak. It has arms with three claws on each to deliver scratches if threatened.


====Gender differences====
Psyduck is constantly stunned by its {{wp|headache}} and is unable to think very clearly. It usually stands immobile, trying to calm its headache. However, when its headache becomes too severe, Psyduck releases tension in the form of strong psychic powers. The use of these powers produces brain waves identical to those seen in sleepers, and the Pokémon is unable to recall these episodes. Psyduck lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|freshwater lakes}} and small ponds, but can be seen in rivers in tropical areas as shown in {{g|Snap}}. As mentioned in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Psyduck suffers headaches while it sleeps.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref> Very rarely, their sights are Psyduck sleeping peacefully while not holding its head.
None.


===Special abilities===
Prior to [[Generation V]], Psyduck and its evolved form, {{p|Golduck}}, were the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that could have {{a|Cloud Nine}} as an [[Ability]].
Psyduck is constantly stunned by its headache. It usually just stands there vacantly, trying to calm its headache. When the headache gets too bad, however, it releases tension in the form of strong psychic powers.


===Behavior===
===Evolution===
Psyduck are usually unable to think very clearly due to having a chronic {{wp|headache}}. Because of the headache, a Psyduck will always hold its head. When these headaches worsen, Psyduck may use psychic powers.
Psyduck evolves into {{p|Golduck}}.


===Habitat===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Psyduck live in freshwater lakes, small ponds, or rivers in tropical areas. It is a widespread Pokémon common in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], and [[Sinnoh]]. It has also been imported to the [[Hoenn]] [[Hoenn Safari Zone|Safari Zone]].

====[[Misty's Psyduck]]====
|type1-2=Water}}
{{an|Misty}} has a Psyduck that she accidentally caught in ''[[EP027|Hypno's Naptime]]''. It is a constant source of frustration for her, as it frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to attempt to battle the opponent in substitution of one of her other Pokémon. Despite this, she has been shown to deeply care for it. Despite being generally shown as dimwitted and oblivious, when its {{wp|headache}} gets bad enough, it has been shown to use phenomenally powerful {{type2|Psychic}} moves which far exceed its normal ability.

Psyduck (Japanese: コダック Koduck) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Golduck starting at level 33.

Biology

Psyduck is a yellow Pokémon resembling a duck or a bipedal platypus. On top of its head are three thick strands of black hair, and it has a wide, flat cream-colored beak. Psyduck's eyes seem vacant and have tiny pupils. Its legs and tail are stubby, and it has cream-colored webbed feet. There are three claws on each of its hands.

Psyduck is constantly stunned by its headache and is unable to think very clearly. It usually stands immobile, trying to calm its headache. However, when its headache becomes too severe, Psyduck releases tension in the form of strong psychic powers. The use of these powers produces brain waves identical to those seen in sleepers, and the Pokémon is unable to recall these episodes. Psyduck lives in freshwater lakes and small ponds, but can be seen in rivers in tropical areas as shown in Pokémon Snap. As mentioned in Pokémon Sleep, Psyduck suffers headaches while it sleeps.[1] Very rarely, their sights are Psyduck sleeping peacefully while not holding its head.

Prior to Generation V, Psyduck and its evolved form, Golduck, were the only known Pokémon that could have Cloud Nine as an Ability.

Evolution

Psyduck evolves into Golduck.

Green
Red(ENG) While lulling its enemies with its vacant look, this wily Pokémon will use psychokinetic powers.
Blue
Yellow Always tormented by headaches. It uses psychic powers, but it is not known if it intends to do so.
Stadium Appears unaware and totally vacant. However, if its chronic headache worsens, it starts exhibiting peculiar powers.
Generation II Johto
#138
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.
Stadium 2 It has mystical powers but doesn't recall that it has used them. That is why it always looks puzzled. (Pokémon Red, Silver, or Crystal inserted)
If its chronic headache peaks, it may exhibit odd powers. It seems unable to recall such an episode. (Pokémon Blue, Gold, or Yellow inserted)

Ruby Psyduck uses a mysterious power. When it does so, this Pokémon generates brain waves that are supposedly only seen in sleepers. This discovery spurred controversy among scholars.
Sapphire 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.
Emerald When its headache intensifies, it starts using strange powers. However, it has no recollection of its powers, so it always looks befuddled and bewildered.
FireRed 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.

Diamond If its usual headache worsens, it starts exhibiting odd powers. It can't remember doing so, however.
Pearl It never remembers using its odd powers, so it always tilts its head in puzzlement.
Platinum Overwhelmed by enigmatic abilities, it suffers a constant headache. It sometimes uses mysterious powers.
HeartGold It has mystical powers but doesn't recall that it has used them. That is why it always looks puzzled.
SoulSilver If its chronic headache peaks, it may exhibit odd powers. It seems unable to recall such an episode.

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.

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.
Brilliant Diamond If its usual headache worsens, it starts exhibiting odd powers. It can't remember doing so, however.
Shining Pearl It never remembers using its odd powers, so it always tilts its head in puzzlement.
Legends: Arceus Suffers perpetual 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.
