Trivia
- Poké Problem: Where does everybody go in today's episode?
- Host: Poni Island's Nurse Joy
- Choices: Akala Island, Ula'ula Island, Poni Island, Aether Paradise
- Answer: Poni Island
- Notebook of the Heart replaces Twerp, Twerpette as the ending theme.
- As of this episode, all four variants of Oricorio have appeared in the anime.
- This episode marks one of the very rare cases when a Pokédex entry is shown for a Pokémon that doesn't otherwise appear in the episode. The last time this happened was in The Battle Club and Tepig's Choice!, 382 episodes earlier.
- Hapu, Rotom, and Ash narrate the preview for the next episode.
- Ash's facial reaction to realizing that there isn't an Island Kahuna on Poni Island is similar to that of Pablo Picasso's art style.
Errors
- Rapp's Zubat took damage from Mudsdale's High Horsepower, even though Flying-type Pokémon are supposed to be immune to Ground-type attacks.
