Trivia

• This is the first ending theme song to feature Gym Leaders since Brilliantly.
• This ending theme features the most Gym Leaders.
• The hand gestures that Liko, Roy, and Dot are doing are based on 9Lana's persona's pose for this song.
• This is the first ending theme song to feature Elite Four members.

Errors

• Despite evolving in HZ059, the ending was updated in HZ060 with Dot's Quaxwell, but not all scenes with Dot's Quaxly were updated with his evolution. Dot's Quaxwell was still portrayed as a Quaxly in the following scenes:
  • When Liko, Roy, Dot, and their starter Pokémon are taking a group photo in the beginning of the ending and Quaxly leaps out, accidentally knocking over Roy's Rotom Phone.
  • When Liko, Roy, Dot, and their starter Pokémon are walking throughout Paldea and Koraidon and Miraidon run past them.
  • The ending shot of Dot looking at her Rotom Phone while Quaxly is laying on her stomach followed by the shot of Liko, Roy, Dot, and their starter Pokémon gazing at the stars.
