Trivia
- Arven has the same Japanese voice actor as he does in Pokémon: Paldean Winds, Makoto Furukawa.
- All versions of Arven use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon). Those Trainers include Cilan, Chili, Cress, Siebold, Mallow, Florian, Juliana, Nemona, Penny, and Clavell.
- Arven also uses special voice-over lines upon winning a battle with Cilan, Chili, Cress, Florian, Juliana, Nemona, Penny, or Clavell in the same team.
- Arven & Nacli having the passive skills Status Immunity and Ghost Guard is likely a reference to the Nacli line's signature Ability Purifying Salt, which protects the user from status conditions and halves the damage dealt by Ghost-type moves.
Origin
Arven's design is based on his appearance in Pokémon Scarlet. Mabosstiff is Arven's signature Pokémon in the core series games. Mabosstiff's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Violet.
Arven uses a Nacli when helping the player battle Bombirdier, the Open Sky Titan, in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Nacli's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Scarlet.
Arven uses a Skwovet during his first battle against the player in the core series games. Skwovet's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Shield.
Arven uses a Scovillain when helping the player battle the Quaking Earth Titan, as well as using it to battle the player beginning with his second battle against the player. Scovillain's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Scarlet.
