Trivia

• Get Inspired! Let's Solve a Poké Riddle!!: Gengar
• The episode's title card has a horror movie theme to it, due to the episode centering around Gengar.

  • With Gengar's capture, Ash has now officially owned at least one Pokémon of all 18 types, including Pokémon whose typing has been changed since their introduction.
• This episode marks the first appearance of a Dusclops in the anime since Team Shocker!, 574 episodes earlier.
  • This episode also marks the first appearance of a Glameow in the anime since its cameo in Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, nearly four years earlier.
• James using a vacuum cleaner to suck up and contain Gengar is likely a reference to Luigi's Mansion.
• Gengar being abandoned by its Trainer who told it to wait for him, while they had no intention of ever returning, is similar to how Ash's Charmander was abandoned by Damian.
