Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash.png

The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode

• Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster: Aurorus
• Bonnie, Clemont's Dedenne and Meowth narrate the preview for the next episode.
  • Just like in Kindergarten Chaos!, at the end of the preview, Bonnie says "Everyone, keep Pokémon!" instead of Ash saying his "Everyone, get Pokémon!" phrase.
• Mega V is replaced by Mad-Paced Getter as the Japanese opening.
• This episode marks the first appearance of a Yanmega in the main series other than the one that belonged to Jessie.

Errors

• When Clemont is about to turn on his invention, Bonnie's legs are missing.
• In one scene, the colors of Pinsir's mouth are inverted (ie. white innards with black teeth).
• When Pikachu tried breaking out of the cage he and Goomy were in, he got covered in bruises. When Goomy made him all slippery so he could squeeze out of the opening he made, the bruises disappeared.
• Goomy's Bide damaged Jessie's Pumpkaboo despite Ghost-type Pokémon being immune to Normal-type moves.
