==Trivia==
[[File:Saiko Soda Collection.png|thumb|200px|Saiko Soda merchandise collection's logo]]
* The Saiko Soda Pokémon Center Collection, a summer merchandise line released at Japanese Pokémon Center stores in May 2018, uses the Soda Pop in its title and branding.
* At normal purchase prices, the Soda Pop is the most cost-effective HP recovery item, recovering 1 HP per {{pdollar}}6 spent. However, the [[Max Potion]] (as well as [[Full Restore]] and [[Revive]]s in some cases) can potentially be more cost-effective if used under certain circumstances; the ideal situation for a Max Potion is a {{p|Blissey}} with maximum {{EV}}s and {{IV}}s in HP with 1 HP remaining, which would recover around 1 HP per {{pdollar}}3.5 spent.
* Soda Pop may be based on {{wp|ramune}}, a type of drink originating from Japan.
