Errors
File:Snorlax preview dp76.png
Snorlax with Munchlax's color
- The Snorlax in the next episode preview was incorrectly given Munchlax's color scheme. This was fixed for the preview that aired on Pokémon Sunday and in the actual episode.
- At the head of the dub, the narrator talked about the "Pokémon Contest of Pastoria City". There is no contest in Pastoria City. However, there is a gym.
- When Ash sent out Buizel to battle with Dawn, the spot on the top-left corner of his face was not filled in.
- In one scene, Nurse Joy had two different shoe colors: green and white. This can be seen when Rhonda is yelling at Jack for hitting her with the microphone.
Dub edits
In other languages
- German: Lucia sucht den Superstar!
- The german episodes title is a reference to "Deutschland sucht den Superstar", which directly translated means "Germany is looking for the Superstar" and is the german equivalent to "America´s got talent".
- Polish: Puchar Mistrza
- Italian: La visita del maestro!
