* Shaymin is implied to be behind the creation of [[Floaroma Town]], as one person notes it was a barren wasteland until one day flowers mysteriously covered it all after someone gave thanks for life's blessings. Additionally, the woman who gives the {{player}} a {{OBP|Gracidea|flower}} flower can be found in Floaroma Town.

* [[Marley]] makes brief references to Shaymin in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} if spoken with during the player's travel with her in {{si|Victory Road}}. She wants to reach the smooth rock on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}. Additionally, if a Shaymin is in the player's party, she will take notice.

* Shaymin's Sky Forme has a different [[cry]] than its Land Forme.

** Despite this, the only cry used in [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]] is the one of its Land Forme.
** Despite this, the only cry used in [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]] is the one of its Land Forme.
** Due to the Pokédex only registering the first forme's cry, it is impossible to listen to the Sky Forme's cry on it. This is because Shaymin traded in their Sky Forme revert to Land Forme, and wild Shaymin are always in their Land Forme. Also, Pokémon battled between players are not registered in the Pokédex, meaning that it is impossible to register a Sky Forme Shaymin before the Land Forme. It shares this trait with [[Red's Pikachu (game)|the starter Pikachu]] in Pokémon Yellow. In [[Generation V]], the Pokédex allows switching between which form is the primary one displayed, therefore allowing Sky Forme's cry to be listened to.

* A Shaymin caught at the Flower Paradise in {{game|Platinum}} will be a [[fateful encounter]] Pokémon, making it the only Pokémon able to be caught from the wild that has this status. This is to allow it to transform into Sky Forme, as non-fateful Shaymin cannot transform.

* Shaymin follows the trend of every generation introducing a legendary Pokémon with a base stat total of 600 and a stat distribution of 100 all around. Others that follow this trend include [[Mew]], [[Celebi]], [[Jirachi]], and [[Victini]].

**Of all of these, [[Shaymin]] and [[Mew]] are the only ones to not have dual-typing. However, [[Shaymin|Shaymin's]] Sky Forme does have two types, but it does not have 100 in all of its base stats.

**Shaymin is the only Pokémon in this trend that is able to change its formes.
***It is also the only Pokémon to not be part [[Psychic-type]].
**Shaymin and [[Jirachi]] are the only Pokémon in this trend with a signature move to this day. Shaymin has [[Seed Flare]], a very powerful and devastating [[Grass-type]] [[move]] that has a chance of lowering the special defense of the target by 2, while [[Jirachi]] has [[Doom Desire]], a powerful and destructive [[Steel-type]] [[move]] that behaves similarly to [[Future Sight]].
