Psyduck

Gold
It has mystical powers but doesn't recall that it has used them. That is why it always looks puzzled.
Silver
If its chronic headache peaks, it may exhibit odd powers. It seems unable to recall such an episode.
Crystal
The only time it can use its psychic power is when its sleeping brain cells happen to wake.
