Description Psyduck are interesting animals. Originally thought to be some kind of bird due to the bill, it has been found to be a mammal.

Living primarily in fresh water, they can be found in swampy like areas where they can be seen swimming deep under the water, returning with clumps of weed or occasionally a fish.

They are known for not being the most smart creatures, however if trained correctly can be powerful allies due to its surprisingly powerful psychic abilities. These abilities have been associated to self defense, rather than offensive attacks as they only tend to be powerful when the pokemon is scared, angry or in pain. Many Psyduck's are effected by strong migraines that amplify these attacks, however causing them a great deal of pain.

They are also strong water pokemon and have a powerful water bladder that can hold many gallons of water at a time.

Hope you like it

Many of you voted to Psyduck being a platypus rather than an actual duck, so sorry to all you people who wanted it as a bird

I'm so glad you came up with this idea! I was always wondering, "What is psyduck if he evolves into a creature with claws?" Platypus is genius! Great job!

I always saw them more as a dinosaur chick, with Golducks being featherless adults.

It also explains Golduck's weird gem and horns. They are simply hadrosaur head crests.

Ha ha! In the faces of those who think Psyduck is a duck! It's obviously a platypus. It has fur on its head, it has claws, its bill more closely resembles that of a platypus, and it lacks wings.
