→‎Trivia: Since Bulbapedia numbers the episodes in the order they originally aired (see Holiday Hi-Jynx and Snow Way Out!, which are not numbered because they did not originally air as standard numbered episodes of the series, they were only made that way for Japanese reruns, home video and streaming releases and all worldwide dubs), I think it is best to include a trivia point noting what order the reruns put it in compared to what order this episode was originally aired in.
(The Korean dub, Japanese reruns/digital streaming releases, and the English dub all place DP169 before DP168 because that's the normal order of these episodes. It's just that TV Tokyo originally broadcast these two episodes in reverse order, but all reruns consider DP169 to be DP168 and this episode to be DP169. So no, this is not India exclusive.)
