• Serena reads the title card.
• Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster: Fletchinder
  • Instead of Pokémon Holo Caster, Hoopa pops out to announce the viewers to see the trailer of the upcoming movie.

• Ash, Clemont, and Rotom read the preview for the next episode.
• Bonnie seems to be aware of Serena's crush on Ash.

Errors

• When Aria is shown watching Serena's performance, her collar is white instead of black. This error repeats in the next two scenes.
