Trivia

The reference to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial

• Poké Problem: Which Pokémon scares us in today's episode?
  • Host: Lana
  • Choices: Gastly, Morelull, Haunter, Mimikyu
  • Answer: Morelull
• The scene near the end of the episode where Ash and Shiinotic touch each other's fingertips may be a reference to a similar scene from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.
• Ash, Shiron, Lillie, Mallow, Sophocles, Kiawe, and Lana narrate the preview for the next episode.
• Both of Lillie's camping bags shown in this episode are the same ones her game counterpart has in the games.
• A remix of Connecting Cave, Glittering Cave, Terminus Cave and Route 14's music from Pokémon X and Y is used as background music during the scene where the group reunites at the camp after having their energies drained by Morelull.
