Trivia

• This is the 600th episode of the entire anime if Holiday Hi-Jynx and Snow Way Out! are not counted.
• The opening theme changes to a remix, High Touch! 2009. As with Together2008, the animation footage is completely unchanged from the previous opening.
• Contrary to internet rumors, Tangrowth or the other forest Pokémon never use Secret Power or Natural Gift in this episode. In the Japanese dialogue they explicitly state that the red beam that Tangrowth emits is Absorb, which drains energy from the opponent. Later in the episode Tangrowth and the other Grass-types use Growth, a green beam that gives energy back to make a tree grow.

Errors

• In one scene, Piplup's crown is the same color as its forehead.
