• In a blog entry posted on May 31, 2010, Shokotan spoke of Peg's love of Electric types and mentioned that, because of this, she wanted to capture a Zekrom. Zekrom was not officially confirmed to be part-Electric type until two weeks later.
• She is similar to Becky: both were Pokémon Sunday hosts and occasionally voiced characters on the movies.
