Trivia

• Caitlin is not the first Elite Four member who was introduced in an earlier generation and then attained the title: Koga did the same, being a Gym Leader in Generation I and Generation III Kanto, then becoming a member of its Elite Four in Generation II and Generation IV.
  • Unlike Koga, however, Caitlin was never able to be battled herself, with Darach doing the honors for her.
• If Caitlin is a Frontier Brain, she is the only one among them to share her name with other Trainers that can be battled in the game.
• Caitlin dresses in the Japanese himegyaru ("princess gal") style.
• A minor character in the Battle Castle mentions that Darach has feelings for Caitlin, but refuses to show these emotions to her.
