• Despite Moani having made her debut appearance in First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!, 78 episodes ago, this is the first time when her name is mentioned.
• The dress that Moani wears during the PokéDance class is similar to the dresses work by Alolan Dancers in the games. Her dialogue also implies that she used to be one when she was younger.
• Similar to A Seasoned Search!, this episode features an evolution of Mallow's Pokémon, said Pokémon learning two new moves, and the anime debut of an Oricorio form.
• Steenee's evolution occurrs under somewhat similar circumstances as her evolution from Bounsweet, with her being the only individual present not captured by Team Rocket and her evolving in order to save the others.
