Trivia

• This is the first Japanese ending in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl that wasn't updated with additions or evolutions to the main characters' teams, although it does fit with the "memories" theme of the song.
• A new version with a slightly different arrangement sung by Megumi Toyoguchi (Dawn's Japanese voice actor) is featured in the CD release of Which One ~ Is It?.

Errors

• In the scene where all of the Pokémon are running towards Piplup, Dawn's Ambipom is nowhere to be seen.
