Trivia

  • This episode's dub title is a reference to the popular saying, "stage fright."
  • The first lines of the poem that Kay recites is from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
  • The part of the show where Hitmonchan and Machoke were fighting each other is a reference to the Rocky movies.
  • When Ash helps with the performance at the end of the episode, he remarks, "It's kinda hard to match the lip flaps, isn't it?" This is a reference to "lip-flap," which is a problem faced by production companies such as 4Kids when dubbing anime.
  • In the last scene where all the Pokémon are dancing, Aim to Be a Pokémon Master was played in the background. In the English version, Pokémon World was played.
  • The dancing scene is the only time a Jynx's feet have ever been seen. It should be noted that even the Pokédex doesn't show Jynx's footprint.
  • When Victreebel bites down to James's head, Jessie calls James's Weezing out instead of him and tells it to use SmokeScreen.

Errors
