Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash V2.png

The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode

• Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster: Farfetch'd
• Instead of a normal preview, a special preview of the Cosplay Pikachu shorts and XY077 were shown.
• Ash's Fletchinder and Hawlucha remain outside of their Poké Balls throughout this episode.
• Ash's Fletchinder used its Flame Body to help Noibat hatch. This is a reference to the games, where Flame Body and Magma Armor make Pokémon Eggs hatch faster.
• With Noibat, this is the first time Ash has three Pokémon of the same type in his team; the others are Fletchinder and Hawlucha.

Errors

• When Noibat drank the water Ash gave it, its feet are colored black instead of purple.
• When Ash is petting Noibat's head, its two teardrop-shaped spots are black instead of purple.
• When Ash is catching his falling Noibat, its three triangles on its fur are colored black instead of purple.
• When Hawlucha and Noibat are quietly trying to escape from Team Rocket before they notice them, the two purple teardrop-shaped spots on the front of Noibat's face are colored the same way as the background.
• After being hit by Pikachu's Thunderbolt, Team Rocket flew off in the following order: Pumpkaboo, Jessie, Meowth, James and Inkay. When they were blasting off, they were in this order: Jessie, Pumpkaboo, James, Meowth, and Inkay.
• In the Pokémon Holo Caster segment, when Hoopa is popping out from its ring, its scleras are colored white instead of yellow.
• When a scene where Ash and the Gang are looking for Ash's Hawlucha, Chespin and Pancham are missing, but it appeared back when Ash and Pikachu founded it carrying an egg.
