Overview
The PSI data table contains parameters for each PSI move in the game. The ordering is consistent with the game's internal PSI names listing.
PSI are programmed not to have smashes.
Format
Each entry in the table uses 56 bytes.
Field listing
- 00-03 (04) = [ A ] PSI number
- 04-07 (04) = [ B ] Type
- 08-0B (04) = [ C ] Usable in overworld
- 0C-0F (04) = [ D ] PP cost
- 10-37 (28) = [ E ] PSI/Item/Actions Info Chunk

About PP cost
Even though the game considers only the first two bytes of PP cost, the developers left two more bytes.
This was probably done so the table has the same structure as the Level-up stats table.
Type
The type value determines in which category it is placed:
| 00: Offense |
| 01: Recover |
| 02: Assist |
Overworld usable
If these bytes have a total value different from 03, the PSI won't be usable in the overworld.
Info chunk
PSI data, Item data, Battle skills table and Battle actions table all share this group of 0x28 (40) bytes.
It is called Battle Info chunk.
