Trivia
- Poké Problem: Which Pokémon appearing in this episode is Rattata's natural enemy?
- Ash, Ash's Rowlet, Ash's Pikachu, and Rotom Pokédex narrate the preview for the next episode.
- The fantasy which depicted the Gumshoos and some Yungoos scaring away the Alolan Rattata and Raticate may be a reference to the title card for the animated series Gamba no Bōken.
- Despite it having existed since Generation I, this is the first time Raticate's Pokédex entry is seen in the anime (although technically the entry was that of Alolan Raticate and not the original form).
