The Tarrasque seems like a non-thretening encounter for a group of epic characters, but when it has the brain of a level 45 psion: Telepath discipline, just barely enough caster level to cast mindswitch, true on the weak willed creature, and able to use a dominate/psychic chirurgery combination to force psions to learn psychic chirurgery and in turn use it on him to teach him all non-epic psionic powers. Standard practice (DMG) dictates that this is a level 45 CR, period. However, the (ab)use of the loosely bound rules of psionics, and the chance to catch the PCs off guard, (especially when the psion uses a certain magic/psionic item to appear like or temporarily become a small or medium size humanoid, despite his new true body)
What's your take on what CR I should put this at? Given that the Tarrasque's only conceivable weaknesses are covered by a psion's adaptability.
Note, I know there's other better classes than psion, but that class is the only way that I could make it work within the rules of the game, so the PCs don't whine about how what I did was impossible.
