Notes

|
A yellow-orange ball forms in front of Lugia's mouth. Lugia's body then starts to glow blue and it fires multiple beams of yellow-orange from its mouth which eventually converge into a single destructive beam, surrounded by a vortex of wind, which is fired at the opponent, or Lugia opens its mouth and blue energy gathers inside it. It then fires a massive beam of blue energy from its mouth at the opponent.

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 second 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.
- Aeroblast is the only Flying-type move introduced in Generation II.
