Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash V2.png

The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode

• Poké TV: "Burn! Pokémon Challenge!!" focusing on Hawlucha.
• Serena reads the title card for this episode.
• Serena narrates the preview for the next episode.
• Ash's Noibat is confirmed to be male in this episode.
  • Ash's Hawlucha is also confirmed to be male in this episode's Poké TV.
• Team Rocket's Team Song and Brilliantly are used as insert songs in this episode.

Errors

• When Ash and his friends are relaxing at the flower field, Bonnie is sitting at the table. When the camera focuses on Squishy, Bonnie is hiding behind the rock it's standing on.
• In the dub, when Noibat saved Floette from falling, Noibat's Japanese voice can be heard when they're circling in the air.
  • This may have been done so Floette's voice could be retained, however.
• In one scene, Noibat's eyelids are colored light-purple instead of black.
• When James commands Inkay to use Psybeam, it is seen charging up the move, but in the next shot when Clemont sends out Luxray to battle, Inkay is shown just getting ready to charge up the attack, despite already starting to do so in the previous shot.
• The wild Breloom used Headbutt on Jessie's Gourgeist even though it should have no effect on Ghost-types.

Dub edits

• The title card segment is read by Ash instead of Serena.
• In the dub, when Jessie sends Gourgeist to battle, she tells her to "teach them to be polite" instead of commanding her to use Seed Bomb. In the Japanese version, Jessie tells her to use that attack.
