Trivia

Errors

• The lower half of Pancham's body would vary between having the standard gray lower half to only having a gray stripe and the rest of its lower half being black.
• When Clemont was so excited about Pancham having a big appetite, one of Pancham's leaves is colored the same way as their heads instead of green.
• When Pikachu and Froakie pulled Chespin out of the ground, the two brown triangles on Chespin's face disappears for a few frames.
• When Jessie threw a Poké Ball to catch a Pumpkaboo, its fangs are missing.
• When Dedenne found the track where Pikachu and the other Pokémon are, its tooth is missing.
• When Pangoro got hit by a twig thrown by Chespin and became very mad, Pangoro's ears are colored the same way as its eyes, and its paws are colored black instead of dark-gray.
• Pangoro's Hammer Arm worked on Jessie's Pumpkaboo, even though it was a Ghost type.
