Trivia

• Get Inspired! Let's Solve a Poké Riddle!!: Slowpoke
• This is the first episode of the anime to be split into two different segments.
• Instead of an individual title card at the beginning of the episode, there are two title cards, each played at the beginning of their respective segment.
• James's Poké Ball collection from Acting True to Form! reappears at the beginning and end of this episode, now including a Dive Ball and a Nest Ball in addition to most of the previously seen Balls.
• The Magikarp Song and Slowpoke Song are used as insert songs in this episode.
• The Magikarp High Jump Tournament and Goh's training methods for it are references to Pokémon: Magikarp Jump.
• Even though Slowking is said to revert back into a Slowpoke if the Shellder on its head is removed, this does not occur in this episode.
• This episode marks the first appearance of a Slowking in the main series since Conway's last appeared in One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!, 554 episodes earlier.
• Wobbuffet is seen playing with a toy car version of Team Rocket's van from Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon.
• Ash, Goh, Pikachu, Raihan, Leon, and Raboot narrate the preview for the next episode.

Errors

• When Jessie calls for the Rocket Prize Master, the Premier Ball on James's Poké Ball collection disappears.
• When explaining how Slowpoke evolves into Slowking, there is no mention of the King's Rock's involvement in the process.
