Psychopath, also known as Thought Peek[1], is a special technique that Mallow learns in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its Nintendo Switch remake.

If the player can push Y Button right before the two lights converge on the enemy, Mallow will also be able to read the enemy's mind, revealing an amusing (and usually nonsensical) quote. Occasionally, this mind probe reveals a weakness or even more rarely a revelation of further plot points or a point of character development for the enemy in question.
