His {{an|Barry|anime}} and {{adv|Pearl|manga}} counterparts also wear the orange Pokétch in its Platinum design. [[Zoey]], on the other hand, has a Diamond and Pearl one the same color as her shirt. | * Officially, as stated by the owner of the Pokétch Company, there are two models of the Pokétch: a blue one for boys and a pink one for girls.

* The father of the company's President remarks on the Pokétch: "''Pokémon Watch! That's Pokétch for short. Say it the long way and... What does Pokémon stand for again?''" This is the first time that the fact that [[Pokémon]] is short for Pocket Monsters is referenced in the English translation.
