Wait what?

Acording to this trivia:

Jessie shows her skill at mathamatics, when on old woman says that she is 120 years old, Jessie claims that that's "ten times old than I am!"

How is that possible? She looks like a grown woman to me, is she really twelve? I have hard times believing it, since I always see her as a woman, instead of a girl. TheBlazikenMaster 21:32, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I think that's the point - especially as Meowth immediately responds as such. --FabuVinny T-C-S 21:37, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Additionally, there are several references throughout the anime that cloud Jessie's true age. EP056 has her claiming to be 17, partly supported by EP161 but not mentioning a specific age there.
There's also the possibility that Jessie's "multiplication" might be a dub error. --Shiningpikablu252 21:48, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
So the point is she sucks at math. 17 would make more sense. But it isn't important anyway, I was just curious. TheBlazikenMaster 21:54, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
I think it was just a joke to point out that Jessie is bad at math, not a dubbing error. But who knows for sure? Chuck67322 21:46, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Add trivia: Movie homage

This episode is an homage to Seven Samurai, later adapted in the U.S. as The Magnificent Seven. A village is threatened by thieves, and a handful of warriors are asked to save the village. The warriors teach the villagers to fight and lay traps, then together they defend the village when the invaders come.

How about something like this as a Trivia point? "This episode's plot is based on the 1954 Japanese film Seven Samurai. The European French episode title references this, counting Ash, Misty, Brock, Jessie, and James as the village's defenders." Thekaratekirby (talk) 08:03, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
