Trivia
- Psycho Boost has the same description texts as Overheat.
- This move is the last Generation III move in index number order.
- Unlike other similar moves, the power of Psycho Boost was not lowered to 130 in Generation VI.
- As Deoxys is unobtainable in Pokémon Sword and Shield, the only Pokémon that can legally know the move in those games is a purified Lugia transferred from Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
- However, the move cannot be selected in battle, making the move unusable in Generation VIII until the release of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, where the only Pokémon that can legally know the move is Deoxys as a result of movesets being altered in Pokémon HOME.
- A Shattered Psyche based on Psycho Boost or Prismatic Laser has the highest base power of all Psychic-type moves.
