Psimon is a supervillain and enemy of the Teen Titans.
Character history
Nothing is known of Psimon's background, the origin of his powers and how he first came into conflict with the Titans before he joined the Brotherhood of Evil in its efforts to eliminate young superheroes worldwide. When the Brotherhood executed its world-wide strike, Psimon teamed up with Kyd Wykkyd to ambush Raven as she came to the aid of Más y Menos. After a fierce aerial battle, in which Psimon matched his mental powers with Raven's magic, he opened a dimensional portal through which Raven was pushed by Kyd Wykkyd, banishing her to an unknown location.
However, Raven managed to return, summoning her former protegees Melvin, Timmy Tantrum, Teether and Bobby on the way, and made her way to the Brotherhood's base to join Beast Boy and the remaining Titans in their final all-out assault against the assembled supervillains. During the fight, Raven confronted Psimon yet again, and using her raven aura to shield herself from his powers, she approached him closely enough to deliver a kick which knocked him out. Right afterwards, Psimon was picked up by Kid Flash and flash-frozen along with the rest of his compatriots.
Powers and abilites
Psimon is in command of vast mental powers. The full extent of his abilites remains unknown; the only powers he has demonstrated so far are levitation, mind-blast projection, and opening psychoportative gateways. His psychic energy is shown to be on equal strength with Raven's. He also seems to have the ability to teleport wherever he desires, because after Kyd Wykkyd teleported onto Raven's mini T-Ship, he subsequently appeared shortly afterward. This may be incorrect, though, as he could be there in the first place, waiting for Kyd Wykkyd. Also, he has been shown to move objects with his mind, which is considered telekinesis.

The potential candidate
In #43, He assembled many supevillians to join him and Dr.Light's Fearsome Five. He impeached that the adding 3 more to the group is the optimum
Fight till the last 3
numbers to destroy the teen titans, furthurly indicted that the Brotherhood of Evil failed because "too many cooks spoil the broth".
The test was to fight each other until the last three stands. However, all of the villians were knocked out cold after the match. Gizmo and Mammoth who arrived late were willy-nily selected, Jinx who went undercover for the titans also made the cut. The Fearsome Five infiltrated the tower but their plan was spoiled by Jinx who finally became a true titan and offically received her commutator.
