* Brainchild of the ''Roleplay/GlobalGuardiansPBEMUniverse'' combines superhuman intelligence with powerful PsychicPowers to make his way as a supervillain. Likewise, The Brain combines lots of smarts with telepathy.
** For the most part, the ''Global Guardians PBEM Universe'' avoids this trope. Most of the smartest people in the setting are [[GadgeteerGenius super-inventors]] rather than [[PsychicPowers mentalists]].

* Inverted in ''Minority Report'' and a few other stories of Creator/PhilipKDick that recycle the same theme: humans that have an "ESP lobe" that gives them psychic powers, in particular the ability to predict the future, are severely mentally retarded, with most of the rest of the brain tissue shriveled and atrophied, and their predictions of the future are deciphered from incoherent babble.

* When Mandark first appeared in ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'' he was shown to be telepathic, to underline the fact he was [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter smarter than Dexter]] (that's before DiminishingVillainThreat settled in, of course). This is used to an eerie effect when, in his first spoken line, he answers the question the teacher was going to ask next.
