* In the opening scene where Brock explains how {{Ash}} met {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash is pictured fully clothed. However, in the [[EP001|episode]] in question, Ash was still in his pajamas. Also in the opening scene, Pikachu is portrayed as having been friendly with Ash as soon as they met, yet in the episode Pikachu was not friendly with Ash at first.
* During the opening scene, Brock narrates how {{Ash}} met {{AP|Pikachu}} as the events of [[EP001|the first episode]] are shown with new animation, but fraught with inconsistencies and errors.
* Also in the opening scene where it is explained how Ash met Pikachu, during and after the encounter with {{p|Spearow}}, Ash's hat is facing the wrong direction. In the first episode of the anime, his hat is turned backwards, while in the movie scene, it's shown to be facing the normal direction.
** Ash is pictured fully clothed when he receives Pikachu, but he was in his pajamas at that point in the episode. Also in this scene, [[Poké Ball#In the anime 2|Pikachu's Poké Ball]] surges with electricity as Ash holds it and Pikachu shakes his head after being released, neither of which occur in the episode.
** In the very next scene, Ash and Pikachu are running on foot from the flock of Spearow while a storm covers the sky, but the storm doesn't occur until after Ash takes {{an|Misty}}'s bike in the episode.
** Ash's hat faces forward during this entire cinematic, even while Ash and Pikachu are lying on the ground after defeating the Spearow. In the episode, he turns it backward right before jumping into the river with Pikachu and it stays that way for the rest of the episode.

* The entire backstory of the movie was changed in the dub. A segment of approximately two minutes, which told the story of the origin of the Soul Dew in Alto Mare's ancient history, was cut. This cut also removed the reference to the fact that many Latios and Latias came and went to and from Alto Mare frequently, causing some confusion to dub watchers when two Latios and a Latias appeared in the credits. This scene is very unique because the animation was done in a storybook-like fashion, something that had never been done before in the Pokémon anime and has been repeated [[M14|only once]] (where it also appeared in dub).

* A replacement backstory was added in the form of dialogue telling about an evil Trainer who once attacked the people of the city with a Kabutops and Aerodactyl until Latios brought water to the town, drowning the evil Pokémon and turning the streets into canals.

* Latios does not keep its Japanese voice in the dubbed English version, and it sounds almost like Latias as a result.
* [[Masashi Ebara]] and [[Megumi Hayashibara]] provide the voices for Latios and Latias in the Japanese version, but Hayashibara provides each Pokémon's voice in the English dub. As a result, Latios's voice sounds much like Latias's and is almost as feminine.
* In the American DVD release of the movie, an intense blue tint was applied, making most of the colors much darker than in the original.
