>>22189181and my argument is that psychic powers are not indicative of intelligence. you're not a superhero because you have senses other animals couldn't comprehend. explain smell to a jellyfish or describe the taste of salt to someone
just because you can tell the future, move objects with your mind or project your own thoughts to others doesn't make you smart. you could hand a book to a gardevoir and it would just stare at it blankly. give it a rubicks cube and it will think its pretty and go hide it under your bed with the rest of its stash.
now that i think about it, we can apply psychic pokemon to the turing test.
