Trivia

• Aeroblast and Spacial Rend are variations of one another, and are the signature move of the version mascots of the secondary versions of the even-numbered generations.
• In Generation II, the anime, and the 2nd Pokémon movie, Aeroblast is portrayed as a beam/beams of destructive energy. However, starting in Generation III and the Super Smash Brothers series, Aeroblast is depicted as a concentrated, hurricane-like vortex stream.
