* Grimsley & Liepard's debut banner was originally scheduled to last until December 19, 2019. However, a glitch occurred that caused parts of the scout display to appear corrupted, which could cause issues for players. As a result, his banner was closed a week earlier than scheduled, and the scout was re-opened on December 26, 2019. <ref>[https://pokemonmasters-game.com/en-US/announcements/Scout_1110_1W_1 Announcement about Grimsley's debut scout]</ref>

** This makes Grimsley & Liepard the sync pair with the shortest gap between their initial run and first rerun, at 28 days.

* The introduction to Grimsley's battle theme features a stock sound effect corresponding to {{wp|coin flipping}}, referencing his post-battle dialogue in [[Generation V]] and his dialogue on [[Alola Route 15]].
