Trivia

• Astral Barrage is tied with Shadow Force for the highest base power of all Ghost-type moves, excluding Z-Moves, Max Moves, and G-Max Moves.
• Astral Barrage can only be registered in the mobile version of Pokémon HOME's move Pokédex using a Smeargle that used Sketch to learn the move. This is possible in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet after the Indigo Disk DLC introduced Smeargle. It shares this trait with Glacial Lance, Behemoth Blade, Behemoth Bash, Ice Burn and Freeze Shock.
