Trivia

• This is the first episode which Jamie Davyous Owens takes over the role of Officer Jenny, who had been previously voiced by Megan Hollingshead.
• This is the fourth episode in the anime series with "Caper" in the title. The other three are The Case of the K9 Caper, The Kecleon Caper, and The Corsola Caper.
• When Officer Jenny sprays the Poké Ball with golden color, she says she present world's first golden Poké Ball. This is not completely true. Another fake golden Poké Ball was sold to James by Magikarp salesman in Battle Aboard the St. Anne. Also, the GS Ball is half golden. However, Officer Jenny may not have knew about them.
