* The Trainer's Choice question was, "Which Pokémon is the best choice to battle {{p|Kirlia}}?", and suggested answers were {{p|Togetic}}, {{p|Combusken}} and {{p|Graveler}}. Judging by type effectiveness and Generation III learnsets, the given answer ({{p|Combusken}}) is at least doubtful, since Kirlia is a {{t|Psychic}} Pokémon and Combusken belongs to {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Fighting}} types. This makes Combusken vulnerable to Psychic attacks and, additionally, in Generation III it could not learn any attacks that Kirlia is vulnerable to. The best choice of these three would be Togetic, as Psychic attacks are normally effective against it and {{t|Grass}} attacks (that Kirlia also can learn) are not very effective. Moreover, Togetic can learn {{m|Shadow Ball}} via TM and Kirlia is weak to {{t|Ghost}} attacks. Graveler is not the best choice, as it has 4x-vulnerability to Grass attacks.

** Kirlia, however, can learn moves such as {{m|Shock Wave}} and {{m|Thunderbolt}} that are super effective against Togetic via TM. The TM capabilities of these Pokémon leave the given answers for this Trainer's Choice disputable.
