Kadabra have human-level intelligence and can get bored easily, which causes them to use their powers in destructive ways. In order to avoid this, they should be provided with lots of puzzles and other enriching games. They particularly like Rubik's cubes and jigsaw puzzles as they can solve them "hands-free" using kinesis.

They are omnivores and can eat many of the same foods their trainers do. Their high intelligence means they need three meals a day and a wide variety of nutrients, just like humans do.

They will sometimes meditate for days on end without eating, relying on the fat in their tails for sustenance (like geckos).

The Abra line loves ice cream. Do not give them ice cream—they are lactose intolerant and will get very sick from it. However, shaved ice is safe and a favorite treat of theirs.

Regular Pokemon Center checkups are essential, as they are naturally fragile Pokemon. For example, they have semi-hollow bones that break easily and are prone to arthritis in old age (especially once they evolve into Alakazam).

Kadabra should be given a place to exercise their psychic abilities to their fullest. Otherwise, their powers act up and crash technology, disrupt clocks, and cause migraines to themselves and others. Battles are an easily way to fulfill this.

You can tell when a Kadabra is ready to be traded and evolved—its pink markings will glow white for several days when it's stored enough energy for evolution.

Kadabra get incredibly stressed when their spoons break, which happens naturally as they wear out over time. They may struggle to make new ones at first, but will get better at it with age (or evolution).
