These are incorrect statements in the questions or answers.
* The tenth question of level one states that {{p|Numel}} levels up the slowest when compared to {{p|Tentacool}} and {{p|Aron}}. In fact, Numel levels up the fastest compared to them.
* The fifth question of level two states that {{p|Seadra}} evolves by "swapping records". In reality, Seadra evolves into {{p|Kingdra}} by [[trade]], and [[record mixing]] is a mechanism to share player information.
* The level 1, question 10 states that {{p|Numel}} levels up the slowest when compared to {{p|Tentacool}} and {{p|Aron}}. In fact, Numel levels up the fastest compared to them.
* The seventh question of level three states that {{p|Numel}}'s belly contains "1200F~ magma boiling". This contradicts the Pokédex, which states the correct temperature is 2,200°F, or 1,200°C.
* The level 2, question 5 states that {{p|Seadra}} evolves by "swapping records". In reality, Seadra evolves into {{p|Kingdra}} by [[trade]], and [[record mixing]] is a mechanism to share player information.
* The seventh question of the fourth level states that {{p|Feebas}} "levels up and evolves as its Beauty condition rises". In reality, Feebas's Beauty does not affect its level. This may be a wording mistake from the fact that Feebas with maximum Beauty is able to evolve when it levels up.
* The level 3, question 7 states that {{p|Numel}}'s belly contains "1200F~ magma boiling". This contradicts the Pokédex, which states the correct temperature is 2,200°F, or 1,200°C.
* The fourth question of the fifth level states that the player can't catch {{p|Shedinja}} without a [[Poké Ball]]. While true that Shedinja still can’t be caught in the wild, a Poké Ball was not made a requirement to allow for {{p|Nincada}} to evolve into Shedinja until [[Generation IV]].
* The level 4, question 7 states that {{p|Feebas}} "levels up and evolves as its Beauty condition rises". In reality, Feebas's Beauty does not affect its level. This may be a wording mistake from the fact that Feebas with maximum Beauty is able to evolve when it levels up.
* Two questions later, it states that {{a|Swift Swim}} doubles a Pokémon's "agility", but the correct stat doubled is {{DL|Statistic|Speed}}.
* The level 5, question 4 states that the player can't catch {{p|Shedinja}} without a [[Poké Ball]]. When Pokémon Masters Arena was released in 2004, the Poké Ball was not required to make Shedinja appear when {{p|Nincada}} evolves into {{p|Ninjask}}. This game predates the [[Generation IV]], which added the requirement of having a Poké Ball to make Shedinja appear.
* The level 5, question 6 states that {{a|Swift Swim}} doubles a Pokémon's "agility", but the correct stat doubled is {{DL|Statistic|Speed}}.

This trivia game is accessed by clicking on the Torchic at the main menu. The first screen contains the in-game description of the Pokémon Trivia Challenge, as well as a "Play" button to start playing and a "Score" button that does not display any scores, but instead displays the pieces of the posters that have been unlocked by the player, if any. There are additional buttons to check the descriptions of other minigames. An arrow at the top-left corner may be clicked to go from the main trivia to the game description, or from the game description to the main menu.
The trivia game starts once the player clicks on "Play" at the Pokémon Trivia Challenge description screen. The answer to all questions is always a Pokémon species. For each question, there are three images of Pokémon (the Pokémon names are not shown); only one of them is the correct answer. When the player clicks on an answer, the text "That's right!" or "Nope, that's wrong!" appears, depending on whether the player has chosen the correct answer.
The trivia consists of six levels. They are numbered from level 1 to 6 in normal gameplay. Some internal game files refer to them as level 00 to 05. Each level has a set of 10 possible questions. However, only a few of these questions are asked randomly to the player. At the right side, there is a Poké Ball meter (a vertical meter with a Poké Ball shown at the bottom) that starts full but decreases when the player answers incorrectly. When the player finishes all levels, they win one of the six pieces of a poster.
Glitches and cheating
Usually, the player starts a new game from the level 1. However, if the player has lost a previous game but didn't close the game application yet, they start a new game from the beginning of the level where they lost. (for instance, if the player loses at the level 4, they will start a new game at the level 4 rather than 1) This contradicts the in-game description and game over screen, which indicate that the player was supposed to start from the beginning.
When the player leaves the trivia (by clicking on the return arrow at the top left) and then opens the trivia again without closing the game application, this happens:
The game remembers the current level and number of correct answers, as if the player didn't leave.
The Poké Ball meter resets and the game forgets the number of wrong answers. (Therefore, it's possible to get infinite chances by repeatedly leaving and returning to the trivia.)
The current question is replaced by another question from the same level. (This is usable in case the player does not know the answer; they can answer another question instead.)
Blurb
Test your knowledge of Pokémon by clicking on the image that correctly answers the trivia question. Try to answer all the questions in each level. If you get an answer wrong, you lose a level in your Poké Ball meter. If you lose them all, you have to start again. Win all 5 levels to get a piece of your Pokémon Masters Poster!
List of questions
The questions below are exactly as they appear in the game. Some are written in an unusual way, such as lowercase "route 101" instead of "Route 101", and evolution by "swapping records" when the question is about evolution by trade.
The tenth question of level one states that Numel levels up the slowest when compared to Tentacool and Aron. In fact, Numel levels up the fastest compared to them.
The fifth question of level two states that Seadra evolves by "swapping records". In reality, Seadra evolves into Kingdra by trade, and record mixing is a mechanism to share player information.
The seventh question of level three states that Numel's belly contains "1200F~ magma boiling". This contradicts the Pokédex, which states the correct temperature is 2,200°F, or 1,200°C.
The seventh question of the fourth level states that Feebas "levels up and evolves as its Beauty condition rises". In reality, Feebas's Beauty does not affect its level. This may be a wording mistake from the fact that Feebas with maximum Beauty is able to evolve when it levels up.
The fourth question of the fifth level states that the player can't catch Shedinja without a Poké Ball. While true that Shedinja still can’t be caught in the wild, a Poké Ball was not made a requirement to allow for Nincada to evolve into Shedinja until Generation IV.
Two questions later, it states that Swift Swim doubles a Pokémon's "agility", but the correct stat doubled is Speed.
