Trivia

• This is the first time the Master Ball was used in the anime.

• Whiscash swallows Sullivan's Master Ball, and is not captured. However, in Berry, Berry Interesting!, a wild Munchlax swallows a Poké Ball and is captured from the inside out.

• Ironically, Whiscash has a large W on its head, and the Master Ball has an M on it, which looks the same as a W when turned upside-down. This possibly represents Sullivan and the Whiscash's rivalry, similar to Mario and Wario, who has an M and a W, respectively, on their hats.
