Trivia

• Techno Blast is the only legendary signature move for which the user does not get STAB.
• Techno Blast is inferior to Genesect's other moves, as Flamethrower, Ice Beam, and Thunderbolt are superior in power, have more PP, and sport additional effects. The exception is when Genesect is holding the Douse Drive or when holding no Drive, as Genesect does not have access to any Water-type moves other than potentially Hidden Power.
