Trivia
- Pokémon Stadium 2 makes available a special Gligar that knows Earthquake, a move it cannot have legally otherwise in Generation II.

- Tyranitar is the only Pokémon who learns Earthquake by leveling up to not gain STAB when used.
- This move caused, for the first time ever, an episode being banned in Japan first, due to the 2004 Chuetsu earthquakes having struck the country a couple of weeks before the episode in question was intended to air.
- Earthquake has the highest fixed attack power of any move with 100% accuracy and no drawbacks (tied with Judgment). This is mitigated by the sheer number of Pokémon immune to ground type moves by being Template:Type2 or having Levitate.
- Earthquake has not been used in the anime since AG101 in 2004, which was never aired due to the planned premier being days after the 2004 Chūetsu earthquake struck Japan.
