Trivia
- Excluding sync pairs with Pokémon able to evolve, Kieran & Hydrapple is the first sync pair whose sync move type does not correspond to one of his Pokémon's base types.
- However, it does match his Hydrapple's Tera Type from the core series games.
- All versions of Kieran use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon) and victory with them. Those Trainers include Florian, Juliana, Carmine, Lacey, and Drayton.
- The Terastal Moves of Kieran's Pokémon contain names of real-life minerals:
- The "topaz" in Hydrapple's Terastal Move Topaz Tera Blast refers to a gemstone whose color also ranges from golden-brown to yellow-orange.
- The "cryolite" in Furret's Terastal Move Cryolite Tera Blast refers to a generally colorless to white mineral whose name is derived from the Ancient Greek word for "frost".
- Kieran shares similarities to Juliana:
- Both are Fighting-type sync pairs from the Master Fair Scout with Tech EX Role.
- Both (alongside Florian) were released to commemorate a run-up to an anniversary event (5.5th Anniversary and 6th Anniversary, respectively).
- Both of their original sync pairs create sunny weather (Juliana's Koraidon uses Hungry Pulse, while Kieran's Hydrapple uses Red-Ripe Sunny Day).
- Both of their respective normal attires depict them holding a Poké Ball.
- Kieran is the first Trainer to become capable of using Sync Terastallization with more than one Pokémon.
- Sygna Suit Kieran's debut EX Master Fair sync pair scout had higher than intended rates for off-focus Fair-exclusive sync pairs. The rates were corrected following maitenance on May 12, 2026, and players received 300 gems as compensation.
Origin
Kieran's design is based on his appearance in The Indigo Disk expansion of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Hydrapple is Kieran's signature Pokémon when battling the player at Blueberry Academy, where it is also capable of Terastallizing into a Fighting-type. Hydrapple's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Violet.
Furret is a Pokémon Kieran uses in the core series games. Furret's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.
