What is the story behind Kadabra and Alakazam's spoons?

I thought it was quite obvious...
People usually try to bend metal spoons to test out their psychic ability. Ever seen the Matrix?
Both Pokemon are psychic types.

I was quite surprised as well after seeing the topic creator ask a question whose answer, for me, is obvious. I thought the "spoon bending stuff with some psychic powers" is known around the globe.

Like many people mentioned a psychic exercise is to try and bend spoons with your mind. It does make Alakazam seem a bit weird... ESPECIALLY if he is shinny... The pink doesn't go well with him XD

Unfortunately, I'm one who does not watch a movie over and over again, and I hardly remember scenes from The Matrix. Does the bending spoons theory actually work? I've never heard of it. I'm aware that these pokemon can bend spoons, but all I could think of was finger strength.

LOL same. But i've never seen the matrix so ..

Lol well ya like every one else said it's that old idea that people with psychic powers could bend spoons and twist forks with their mind (because they obviously had nothing better to do with their power)

Let's see what the world will think of me once I master the ability to bend sporks. mrgreen

OMG you could have a all dancing all singing spork bending show

Pokedex says...."Kadabra holds a silver spoon in its hand. The spoon is used to amplify the alpha waves in its brain. Without the spoon, the Pokémon is said to be limited to half the usual amount of its telekinetic powers."
I thought it was common knowledge about spoon bending and psychics. I knew for a very long time. Just seems to go hand and hand with each other.

Even Mewtwo uses a huge one in the manga.

If you would have seen the anime episode where ash beat sabrina's gym, you would understand.
Sabrina's a hardcore b***h.

I Think The spoons boosts their phsicic Powers , And the star that in on Kadabra's head is like, representing something, I Think that the red represents the creepier kadabra is, Look at HIS NAME! ''Kadabra'' In spanish means like, The work most likely ''Descalabra'' , That means like breaking someones head... O.o

Moving the spoon with the mine means: Tenecheneses
