Trivia

• Grimsley'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.
• Grimsley uses a male Scrafty upon battling him the first time. It is then replaced with a female Scrafty upon battling him a second time.
  • Notably, Sharpedo, who is in Scrafty's slot in subsequent battles, is the only male Pokémon on Grimsley's team, meaning that only the first Pokémon in Grimsley's party is male while the rest are female.
• Grimsley's Bisharp is underleveled in the first match against him; Pawniard does not evolve until level 52.
• Grimsley's Liepard is the only Pokémon without a unique type combination in the first match against him.
• None of Grimsley's Pokémon use Special moves.
• Grimsley is the only member of the Unova Elite Four not to appear outside the League.
