Trivia

• Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster: Machamp
  • Instead of Pokémon Holo Caster, Hoopa pops out to announce the viewers to get the legendary Pokémon giveaways and the tickets for the movie.
• Clemont and Serena narrate the preview for the next episode.
  • Just like in Seeking Shelter From the Storm! and The Cave of Mirrors!, no background music plays during the preview.
• The opening animation is updated to remove Ash's Sliggoo (whose spot in his roster is taken up by a Noibat) and includes a new variation of scenes with the Gym Leaders Ramos, Valerie and Olympia, Ash meeting Alain, a Noibat flying around before falling to the ground and then crying and Serena with her Braixen and Pancham, watching an Eevee dancing on a rocky platform at night.
• This episode shares many similarities to Bound For Trouble:
  • Both episodes involve Meowth tied up with someone else.

Errors

• When the Pangoro are attacking for the fifth time, Ash's Fletchinder is gone.
• In several scenes, Pangoro's claws on their paws and feet are colored lighter than they should be.
• When Bonnie and Meowth are falling down to the horde of Foongus, the Pokéball pattern on several Foongus' heads are completely swapped backwards.
• After the Pangoro give apples to Ash and his friends and when they're saying goodbye to them, the long fringes on their backs are colored lighter than they should be.
