Oh. A Godox V860II (AU$250-ish on amazon.au.com) and an XPro-P (about AU$90) could do that as an off-camera radio slave. But the V860II wouldn't be TTL/HSS on the camera hotshoe, since a -P version isn't out yet. You'd have to get an "other flavor" version and firmware update it.
It has a built-in transceiver, can do HSS/TTL/power control over radio from an XPro-P (TTL is contingent upon the firmware update), uses a li-on battery pack for slightly faster recycling over NiMh AAs, and if you put the Zoom into the auto setting, you can remotely zoom it by group from an X-Pro transmitter.
The cheaper AA-powered TT685 should hopefully be able to do the same, but doesn't yet have the firmware upgrade for P-TTL.
If you're willing to give up the zoom capability, and the 0.25s slower recycling on NiMh vs Li-on is okay for you, you could also go with the about AU$80 TT600 in the meantime until a V860II-P or TT685-P arrives on the scene.

..or the AD200 (now that it's got a firmware update for Pentax), if a smaller unit is required. And the extension head and pouch means you might be able to mount the head on a bracket while the XPro-P is on the hotshoe. Unfortunately, there's no X1T-P, so you can't just stack it on an X1T, like the Canon/Nikon shooters are doing to get the AD200 "on-camera."
The AD600 has a similar extension head and bag, but it's a lot bigger/heavier. Better for a VALS to carry it, vs. the photographer.
The AD400 Pro's extension head hasn't been released, AFAIK.

The Strobie is a rebranded Godox AD360, so these are actually the same unit.
The AD360 probably underwent more rebranding than any other Godox unit, and B&H listed it both as the Strobie and as the Volt VB-22.
There is a later version of the AD360, the AD360 II, which has a built-in a Godox X transceiver. But it only has compatible feet for Canon and Nikon, and can only be a TTL/HSS radio slave to the currently supported systems (Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, and micro four-thirds). As Class A pointed out, Godox isn't yet supporting P-TTL/HSS directly for Pentax users, yet.
