Trivia
- The episode was temporarily banned from re-airing after the September 11 attacks on Kids WB, as the title was reminiscent of the incident. It was aired later on January 29, 2002.
- Due to the nature of the episode title, Kids WB refused to give the tape to Cartoon Network for them to air this episode in 2002. Because they have rights to air it, it's possible this episode will make a first debut around October 2007.
- When Meowth points at the Gastly, it looks as though he is pointing his middle finger at Jessie,who then hits him with a hammer.
