Trivia
- Music from The Rise of Darkrai and Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea is used as background music.
- Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture: Starly
- Jessie, disguised as Jessalina, dresses up like Fantina for this episode's contest.
- James and Meowth wore the same outfits they wore in Gymbaliar!.
- This is the first time Dawn wins a ribbon in which the events of the contest take place in one episode.
- It is implied that ribbons never expire, and that multiple years can be used to collect the needed five ribbons for the Grand Festival. However, after competing in the Festival, the five cannot be used in another competition.
- This episode contains the anime's first representation of Substitute, an attack that has existed since Generation I.
- In the games, Cherrim can only transform when Sunny Day is in effect, while in this episode, Cherrim transformed immediately after coming out of its Poké Ball. However, this was most likely due to the stadium lights.
- Another notable difference between the anime and the games is the status ailment Attraction which, in the games, does not wear off on its own.
- When Lila commands Delcatty to use Sing, the tune he produces is the same used in Jigglypuff's song, and is also identified as Jigglypuff's song on the closed caption.
- Dawn changes clothes and hairstyles throughout the contest.
- In addition, her appearance also changes on the scoreboard.
Errors
- Ambipom's pupils drastically shrank in one scene.
