Trivia

File:Kitchen Timer.JPG

The Kitchen Timer on Dawn's Pokétch.

• The English title of this episode is a reference to the line "Do you know the Muffin Man?", a classic fairy tale.
• This episode originally aired as a one-hour special with DP024.
• Music from Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, Pokémon Heroes, and the old Team Rocket theme is used as background music.
• Dawn used the Kitchen Timer on her Pokétch when she was cooking Poffins.
• Forsysthia and her Roserade are seen holding a Sprayduck on different occasions.
• Kikuko Inoue replaces Yuriko Yamaguchi, who is on maternity leave.
• A new version of By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~ with new animation and a different mix is used as the ending theme.
• An interview with Kunihiko Yuyama and new Dialga vs. Palkia vs. Darkrai footage followed the episode.
• Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture: James's Cacnea
  • Pokémon senryū: サボネアは　ふれるとチクチク　トゲトゲよ Cacnea, prickly spikes, when it touches.

Dub edits

• In the Japanese version, there was an original intro for this episode, yet Pokémon USA starts out the episode with a cold open format (not present in the Japanese version), and then using the original intro after the theme song is played. This is also true for Cooking Up A Sweet Story.
