* Forretress could not learn any {{type|Steel}} moves until [[Generation IV]], and could only learn one {{type|Bug}} move (and this only by breeding) up until the release of {{v2|Platinum}}.
** In {{v2|Platinum}}, {{2v2|Black|White|2}} it is possible to have Forretress learn {{m|Bug Bite}}, which would mean it would have to show its face or mouth to bite the foe. This would possibly mean the elimination of the mystery of what is inside its shell. Based on its {{v2|Emerald}} Pokédex information however, this seems unlikely. The 'biting' motion could also simply be Forretress clamping its shell on the opponent, something Forretress is known to be able to do.
* {{p|Pineco}} and Forretress share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Burmy}} and {{p|Wormadam}}. They are all known as Bagworm Pokémon.

* Forretress can learn {{m|Swift}} by breeding in [[Generation III]], but it can't learn it from the [[Move Tutor]]. This also happened to its pre-evolution {{p|Pineco}}.
* Forretress is the first original {{t|Steel}} Pokémon in the National Pokédex order. ({{p|Magnemite}}'s evolutionary line, which precedes Forretress, wasn't Steel-type in [[Generation I]]).

* Forretress's {{v2|Crystal}} still sprite is different from that of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, making it one of few Pokémon to have three distinctly different sprites in [[Generation II]].
