Trivia

  • The Pokémon Ash uses in the exam are the same species as those that Team Rocket uses to battle him outside of it: Arbok, Weezing, and Meowth. James does almost the same, in reverse: he gets a Pikachu, Ivysaur, and Charizard to use.
  • This is one episode where Charizard doesn't keep its Japanese voice and its voice is provided by Eric Stuart.
  • According to the dub, Jessie is 17 years old. It is not known how accurate this is.
  • James receives the a similar team to the one that Pokémon Trainer has in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, except with a Pikachu instead of a Squirtle.

Errors

  • The instructor shows an image of a Poliwrath and Poliwag but calls them Poliwhirl and Poliwag.
  • The instructor says Electric moves don't work on Rock Pokémon, in reference to Pikachu's Thunderbolt failing to affect his Graveler. In actuality, Electric moves don't work on Template:Type2s, which Graveler is also.
  • In one scene where the gang talks to Nurse Joy and Todd takes pictures of Pokémon, there is a trainer with a green-colored Weedle.
