Psychic Terrain (Japanese: サイコフィールド Psycho Field) is a non-damaging Psychic-type move introduced in Generation VII.

Effect

Psychic Terrain creates terrain that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.

This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are on the ground and not in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move.

• It prevents affected Pokémon from being hit by moves with increased priority.
• It boosts the power of Psychic-type moves used by affected Pokémon by 50% (regardless of whether the target of the move is affected by Psychic Terrain).

If Psychic Terrain is in effect, Nature Power becomes Psychic, Secret Power uses the animation of Confusion and may lower its target's Speed, and Camouflage causes the user to become Psychic-type.

If a Terrain Extender is held when Psychic Terrain is used, the terrain will last 8 turns instead of 5.

When a Pokémon with the Ability Psychic Surge enters battle, Psychic Terrain is automatically created which lasts for 5 turns (8 if the Pokémon holds a Terrain Extender).

Upon successfully doing damage, Genesis Supernova creates Psychic Terrain on the field which lasts for 5 turns.

If powered up by a Psychium Z into Z-Psychic Terrain, the user's Special Attack stat rises by one stage.
