Pokémon Trainer's Choice: Dewgong

• Pikachu (Ash's)
• Meowth (Team Rocket)
• Wobbuffet (Jessie's)
• Treecko (Ash's)
• Corphish (Ash's)
• Skitty (May's)
• Seviper (Jessie's)
• Cacnea (James's)
• Marshtomp (Nicolai's)
• Zigzagoon (Nicolai's)
• Zangoose (Nicolai's; debut)

Trivia

• In Pokémon Trainer's Choice, all three choices are actually correct, the complete opposite of the previous episode's in which none were correct. Dewgong's Template:Type2 is effective against Ninjask's Template:Type2, Torkoal's Template:Type2 is effective against Ninjask's Template:Type2, and Nosepass's Template:Type2 is actually effective against both of Ninjask's Bug/Flying-types, which would make Nosepass the most effective choice.
• This episode aired exactly one year in Japan before it was aired in America, along with Maxxed Out!.
• In this episode, for the second time, Meowth fills in for Jessie in the Team Rocket's motto.

Errors

• When Meowth started to say the Team Rocket's motto with James, both of them act like it was the first time this has happened. However, they did this before in The Stun Spore Detour.
