Trivia

File:Title Card XY Team Rocket V2.png

The title card segment focuses on Team Rocket for this episode

• Poké TV: "Pokemon Unbelievable" focusing on Shiny Pokémon.
• In the Japanese version, the title card segment focuses on Team Rocket.
• Ash and Diantha narrate the preview for the next episode.
• Meowth wears the same Kirlia disguise that he wore in Do I Hear a Ralts?.

Errors

• After Ash scans the Shiny Phantump with his Pokédex, the macaron it was eating got larger as if it hadn't eaten much of it though while the Pokedex entry was being read, it ate most of the macaron.
• When Team Rocket disguises themselves as Phantump and take the Shiny Phantump away, when Clemont, Bonnie and Dedenne come around the corner, Dedenne is heard but his mouth doesn't move.
• Before being blasted off, the group of Phantump trap Team Rocket in Forest's Curse. However, this should not have affected Gourgeist because she is part Grass-type.
