In ''[[AG183|Aipom and Circumstance!]]'', Aipom became jealous of Pikachu's closeness to Ash. Aipom also seems to have a certain penchant for headgear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. The members of a crowd who wanted to crown, as well as Ash and his friends, attempted to remove the crown from her head so she would not become their king for a year. With the help of a [[Belue Berry]]'s sourness, the crown was finally taken off. Ash then hugged Aipom and told her not to get into trouble all the time. As Ash laughed a bit when he told her this, Aipom blushed. | In ''[[AG183|Aipom and Circumstance!]]'', Aipom became jealous of Pikachu's closeness to Ash.

Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of the said episode while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers. {{an|May}} said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね?」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''. In [[DP048]], Dawn also explicitly calls Aipom a girl, and in the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies!]]'', both Aipom and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} are referred to as girls, confirming them to be female. | Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of the said episode while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers. {{an|May}} said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね?」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''.
