Trivia

• As stated by Ash himself, the battlefield he and Serena have their battle on is the same one where Ash had his first battle with Clemont when he first came to Lumiose City.
• This episode was followed by a preview for the Sun & Moon series.
• DreamDream is used as an insert song and as the ending theme for this episode.
