* Alakazam could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Machamp}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, they reach their final stage by [[trading]], and they both have a 75% male gender ratio. Also, Alakazam excels at the {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat, while Machamp excels at {{stat|Attack}}. They are both in all regional Pokédexes (excluding the [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Unova dex]]). Their evolutionary families are also next to each other in the National Pokédex. Moreover, a girl in [[Oreburgh City]] will trade her Abra for a Machop.

** Alakazam could also be seen as a counterpart to [[Gengar]]. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, which can only be achieved by trading, both have mega evolution, Gengar is weak against Psychic moves and Alakazam is weak against Ghost moves, so they are weak and at the same time strong against each other. They have the same length, and both get smaller when they mega evolve. Their base friendship is also the same, with 70. In the animé episode: ''The ancient puzzle of Pokémopolis'' there are a Gengar and a Alakazam put against each other. Since Generation VI, they both have a Base stat total of 500. Both are weak to Dark type Pokémon.
