* Although the man who gives out [[TM41]] in [[Generation I]] says that only {{p|Chansey}} can learn Soft-Boiled, it can also be taught to {{p|Mew}}.
* Although Soft-Boiled is available in {{game|Emerald}} as a [[Move Tutor]] move, no Pokémon naturally {{pkmn|availability|available}} in the game can learn the move; all Pokémon capable of using the Move Tutor must be traded into the game from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} or caught using an [[Old Sea Map|event item]].
* Male Pokémon can use this move despite its Japanese name being タマゴうみ ''Tamago Umi'', which can be translated to "egg lay".
* In [[Generation III]], the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it targets the user (thus it ignores accuracy and evasion checks).
* In Generation III, if this move is used immediately after {{m|Brick Break}}, the egg that appears will be transparent rather than solid. This is only a graphical error and doesn't affect the execution of the move.
* In the 1.0 release of the English versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, whenever the player uses Soft-Boiled on a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is [[Fainting|fainted]] or at full health, the game erroneously states "This '''item''' can't be used on that POKéMON." In the 1.1 release, the word "item" was removed and the message correctly says "This can't be used on that POKéMON." This error does not exist in the Japanese versions, meaning it was a localization oversight.
* The [[TM]] for Soft-Boiled can be taught to the fewest number of Pokémon of any TM.
* The [[TM]] for Soft-Boiled can be taught to the fewest number of Pokémon of any TM.
* The [[Non-player character|NPC]] who gives out [[TM41]] in [[Generation I]] says that only {{p|Chansey}} can learn Softboiled. However, {{p|Mew}}'s existence was supposed to be kept secret, which explains the apparent omission.
* Although Softboiled can be learned in {{game|Emerald}} from {{DL|Move Tutor|Battle Frontier Move Tutors|a Move Tutor at the Battle Frontier}}, no Pokémon naturally {{pkmn|availability|available}} in the game are able to do so. Therefore, all Pokémon capable of using the Move Tutor must be traded into the game from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} or caught using an [[Old Sea Map|event item]].
* In [[Generation III]], Softboiled has several oversights:
** The [[summary]] states that the move has 100% [[accuracy]], even though it targets the user and thus ignores accuracy and {{DL|Stat|evasion}} checks.
** If used immediately after {{m|Brick Break}}, the egg will be rendered as transparent rather than solid.
** In the 1.0 release of the English versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, whenever the player uses the move on a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is [[Fainting|fainted]] or at full health, the game refers to it as "this item". In the 1.1 and 1.2 releases, the word "item" was removed.
