The song states that there are "at least 127 more" Pokémon. This is because the number 27 is a running gag within Weird Al's songs.[1] Since this song was released during Generation II, this is actually accurate, since there are 210 remaining Pokémon between Generations I and II that aren't listed in the first two verses and the bridge (and 196 more that aren't listed in the song as a whole).

In 2017, Weird Al tried to include the song on Medium Rarities, an exclusive bonus disc consisting of singles and other rare tracks, as part of his compilation box set Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic, but he was denied permission,[2] allegedly due to Pokémon's recent rise in popularity resulting from the 20th anniversary events and Pokémon GO.[3]
