How to Get a Pokemon With Psycho Cut in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

The only way to get a Pokemon with Psycho Cut in Pokemon Legends: Z-A is through level up. There is no Psycho Cut TM (Technical Machine) available in PLZA, meaning only Pokemon that learn the move naturally as their levels increase can do so.

Luckily, there are quite a few Pokemon who have access to this move, and some of them are very easy to get early on in the game.

The following table shows the names and locations of all Pokemon that learn Psycho Cut by level up, as well as what level they need to be before they can do so:

Pokemon	How to Get	How to Learn Psycho Cut
Kadabra	Catch and evolve Abra in Wild Zone 5. Catch Kadabra in Wild Zone 9.	Level 20
Alakazam	Evolve Kadabra. Catch Alpha Alakazam in Wild Zone 20.	Level 20
Honedge	Catch Honedge in Wild Zone 4 at night.	Level 22
Doublade	Evolve Honedge.	Level 22
Aegislash	Evolve Doublade. Catch Alpha Aegislash in Wild Zone 20.	Level 22
Metang	Catch and evolve a Beldum found in Lysandre Labs during Main Mission 35.	Level 34
Metagross	Evolve Metang. Catch Alpha Metagross in Wild Zone 20.	Level 34
Gallade	Catch and evolve a male Ralts into Kirlia, then use a Dawn Stone. Catch an Alpha Gallade in Wild Zone 20.	Level 42
Inkay	Catch Inkay in Wild Zone 11.	Level 33
Malamar	Evolve Inkay. Catch Malamar in Wild Zone 20.	Level 33

Although Absol did have access to Psycho Cut via level up in earlier Pokemon games, it cannot learn it naturally in Pokemon Legends: Z-A.

Once you have a Pokemon that can learn Psycho Cut, select the Pokemon in the Boxes or Party menu and choose “Change Moves.” If they’re at the required level, Psycho Cut will be found under Available Moves.

The easiest Psycho Cut Pokemon to get is either Kadabra, since Abra, its pre-evolution, is found very early on during the game in Wild Zone 5, or Honedge, which is found in Wild Zone 4 during the night. Of course, if you have already captured one of the other Pokemon, it’ll do just as well.
