Trivia
- The group have their Pokémon transferred between Pokémon Centers. This presumably has the same physical effect as trading, which is required for Poliwhirl to evolve into Politoed.
- The device used by Team Rocket for this episode bears an uncanny resemblance to the Strength Intensifiers A.J. used on his Pokémon.
- It's purpose is also similar to the device Namba used on Electabuzz and hoped to use on Lugia.
- Not for the first or last time, Jessie battles with her own body.
