Biology
Its brain cells multiply infinitely with age, amplifying its psychic powers and allowing it to remember everything since its hatching as an Abra. Its muscles are weak, so it lifts its body with its psychic powers. It may give its spoons to someone it trusts.
Forms
Its muscles and strength have been traded in for more psychic power. Not only can it see a person's entire life in a glance, but when its attacks miss, it is because it is seeing the future with the red organ on its head.

The longer Alakazam lives, the larger and heavier its head becomes. Our tests have shown that the strength of its psychic powers correlates positively to the weight of its head.
Legends: ArceusAlakazam wields potent psychic powers. It’s said that this Pokémon used these powers to create the spoons it holds.
ShieldIt has an incredibly high level of intelligence. Some say that Alakazam remembers everything that ever happens to it, from birth till death.
SwordIf it trusts someone deeply, it will let them have one of its spoons. Anything you eat with that spoon is apparently delicious.
Ultra MoonAlakazam uses its psychic powers to make the spoons it carries. Each spoon is an original that there’s only one of in the whole world.
Ultra SunIts brain cells continue to increase in number until its death. The older the Alakazam, the larger its head.
