There are several psychic fire-type Pokémon. However, it isn’t news that these Pokémon are weak compared to other Pokémon. Don’t get me wrong, I love psychic-type Pokémon.
Their bewildering abilities come in handy whenever I don’t feel like playing offense. I especially love that they can use their intelligence to manipulate the opponent 👌.
However, I sometimes wish they had abilities that counter their weaknesses.
What better way to do that than to be dual-type?
Preferably psychic fire-type. Is that even possible?
Let’s dive in to find out.
Are there any psychic-fire Pokémon?
Yes, there is. Victini is a psychic fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation 5. It is in the shape of a rabbit with pointed ears and teeth.
Its body is cream, except for its arms, legs, and ears, which are orange. Victini can produce infinite energy that it can share with others through touch.
Its psychic abilities are vision and invisibility. It sends visions to people, which is pretty cool 👍.
Victini is believed to bring certain victory in any encounter as long as you befriend it. It can learn moves like Searing Shot and V-Create.
It is also the only Pokémon known to have Victory Star as an ability.
Which psychic Pokémon can learn fire moves?
There are plenty of psychic-type Pokémon that can learn fire moves, most of which are dual-type, like fire/psychic, psychic/ghost, or rock/psychic. Primary psychic-type Pokémon don’t acquire fire moves by breeding or leveling up.
A player has to use Move Tutors, Technical Records, or Technical Machines to teach these Pokémon fire moves.
The various moves that psychic Pokémon can learn include fire punch, flamethrower, mystical fire, and fire spin, among others.
Different game versions present different move abilities. This means that it is technically impossible to have an exhaustive list of psychic Pokémon and their fire moves 🫤.
Below is a brief list of psychic Pokémon and the fire moves they can learn.

What is a psychic fire-type Pokémon weak to?🤔
Victini might seem invincible, but it is weak to Water, Ground, Rock, Ghost, and Dark. Other psychic-type Pokémon that can learn fire moves maintain their primary weaknesses regardless.
For instance, Gallade is weak to Flying, Ghost, and Fairy, while Orbeetle is weak to Flying, Rock, and Bug.
What is the psychic fire-type Pokémon in Scarlet?
In the Pokémon world, psychic fire-type and fire psychic-type are different in terms of weaknesses and resistance.
As we have already established, Victini is the only psychic fire-type, which makes it the psychic fire-type in Scarlet.
On the other hand, Armarouge is the fire psychic-type Pokémon in Scarlet. It is humanoid and the only Pokémon to know the armor cannon move.
Psychic Pokémon are already special, but when equipped with fire moves, they are a victory guarantee ✌.
