Trivia
- The other three trainers who left Pallet Town on the same day as Ash have already passed through Celadon City and earned their fifth badge.
- Ash sent in 100 postcards to receive his official Pokémon League cap. Misty entered the same competition but only sent in one entry, thus not recieiving a hat.
Errors
- In Mystery at the Lighthouse, Professor Oak tells Ash Gary has caught 45 Pokémon. However, in this episode, Professor Oak tells Ash Gary has caught 30 Pokémon.
- The writing on the Pokéball in the advert is spelt "POCKEMON LEAG". This was not corrected in the dub, possibly as it is hard to read anyway.
Dub edits
- Professor Oak's poem:
- English: Everyday it's cake and tea/Just my Pokémon and me
- Japanese: Eat Pokémon and premonitions/Delicious isn't it?
- Brock's rice balls are called donuts.
- When the narrator asks if Ash can catch up with his rivals in the dub, the original had him remembering Professor Oak's words about catching Pokémon.
In other languages
