Psycho Boost (Japanese: サイコブースト Psycho Boost) is a damage-dealing Psychic-type move introduced in Generation III. It is the signature move of Deoxys.

Effect

Psycho Boost inflicts damage and lowers the user's Special Attack stat by two stages.

Psycho Boost can be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining extra six appeal points if Calm Mind was used in the prior turn.
