==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} game data, Nosepass is able to learn Head Smash via {{pkmn|breeding}}; however, no Pokémon that can actually learn it has an [[Egg Group]] compatible with Nosepass'. Due to this, the move later was removed in {{2v2|Black|White}} game data.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}'s game data, {{p|Nosepass}} can learn Head Smash via {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no Pokémon that could learn it at the time were in Nosepass's [[Egg Group]], {{egg|Mineral}}, making it impossible to pass down the move without the use of the [[Rage glitch]]. This learnset data was then removed in [[Generation V]] and brought back in [[Generation IX]].
* Head Smash is  tied with {{m|Rock Wrecker}} for the highest [[Power|base power]] of all {{type|Rock}} moves, excluding [[Z-Move]]s, [[Max Move]]s, and [[G-Max Move]]s.
** A {{m|Continental Crush}} based on either of them has the highest base power of all Rock-type moves.
* Head Smash is the only Rock-type move that causes [[recoil]] damage.
** It also has the highest base power of all recoil moves.
