Psystrike: Difference between revisions

*Psystrike’s portrayal in ''Smash'' appears to be the exact opposite of its depiction in the ''Pokémon'' series, being a mental psychic pulse. In actuality, it is frequently portrayed as a physical projectile, either as a barrage of stones or a large meteor, hence the move factoring in the opponent’s Defense stat. It is only one of two Psychic-type moves with this property.

**Incidentally, Psystrike's animation was updated in Generation VII to resemble its depiction in Smash.

*Psystrike, as well as Lucario's [[Aura Sphere]], in ''Ultimate'' was the last time Z-Moves were seen before their removal in ''{{iw|Bulbapedia|Pokémon Sword and Shield}}''.
