Trivia

• Giima's appearance seems to be inspired by vampires, backed up by his ominous candlelit room, styled with influence from vampire backdrop such as Bram Stoker's Dracula. It also maybe inspired by Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera.
• Giima uses a male Zuruzukin upon battling him the first time. It is then replaced with a female Zuruzukin upon battling him a second time.
  • Notably, Sharpedo, who is in Zuruzukin's slot in subsequent battles, is the only male Pokémon on Giima's team, meaning that only the first Pokémon in Giima's party is male while the rest are female.
• Liepard is the only non dual-type Pokémon that Giima uses in battle.
• Before obtaining the National Pokédex, Giima's Kirikizan is underleveled; Komatana does not evolve until level 52.
• All the moves of Giima's Pokémon are either Physical or Status moves.
  • In the rematch, Liepard is Giima's only Pokémon that has a Status move.
• As of Pokemon Black and White, Giima is the only member of the Elite Four not to appear outside the Unova League. Both Shikimi and Caitlin visit Cynthia in the Villa she rents, while Renbu appears on the Victory Road.
