'''Psychic''' (Japanese: サイキック ''Saikikku'') monsters had their debut is a [[Type]] of [[Monster Card]]. It debuted in ''[[The Duelist Genesis]]'', and they are used by [[Sayer]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D'sOCG]]''. Psychic-/''[[TypeTCG]]s often resemble cyberpunk androids, cybernetically-enhanced humans, or strange mutants, and often feature elements of cyberspace, circuit board patterns, green coloring'', and yellow electricity in their art. It is worth noting that many Psychic-Type monsters resemble what in the past were ''[[MachineDeck Mod Pack: Hyperspeed Rush Road!!]]-Type, '' in ''[[FiendRush Duel]]-Type, or [[Spellcaster]]-Type monsters (such as "[[Mutant Mindmaster]]", "[[Cipher Soldier]]", "[[Mind on Air]]" and especially "[[Jinzo]]")''.
Being a Type that debuted at the dawn of [[Synchro Summon]], Psychic-Type monsters also support a heavy Synchro Summoning element with cards like "[[Emergency Teleport]]", "[[Mind Master]]" and "[[Overdrive Teleporter]]"enabling easier access to Synchro materials. They also contain many notable Synchro Monsters, including with many early Synchro Monsters being Psychic, such as "[[Thought Ruler Archfiend]]", and "[[Magical Android]]", "[[Hyper Psychic Blaster]]", and "[[Overmind Archfiend]]". For a long while, there was no pure Psychic [[archetype]], though half of the "[[Gusto]]", "[[Ritual Beast]]", and "[[Kozmo]]" archetypes were composed of Psychic-type monsters. The first pure Psychic-Type archetype was released in ''[[Booster SP: Highspeed Riders]]''; "[[PSY-Frame]]", followed by the "[[Metalfoes]]" in ''[[The Dark Illusion]]''.

==Playing StylesAppearance in media==The following characters use Psychic monsters across the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' franchise.
{| style="width:100%"| style="vertical-align:top" |===Life Point ManipulationManga===Older Psychic Decks focus on a combination of the manipulation of ;''[[Life PointsYu-Gi-Oh! OCG Structures]] and swarming. When played properly, they can be one of the most versatile and unpredictable types in the game, considering their ability to summon powerful monsters in short amounts of time. While most of the Life Point payment costs (or damage in some card's case) are somewhat hefty, they often wield powerful effects that is usually worth the payoff. For example, "[[Overdrive Teleporter]]" can Summon 2 monsters from the Deck at once, "[[Destructotron]]" can obliterate all backrow cards, "[[Telekinetic Power Well]]" can Summon multiple monsters at once from the Graveyard, and "'* [[Mind MasterShoma Yusa]]" (now Forbidden) enabled OTK moves and loops.
