Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash.png

The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode

• Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster: Aurorus
  • For the TV Tokyo airing, instead of the Pokémon Holo Caster segment, the Mairin's Mega Evolution Corner about Mega Sceptile was shown.
• This is the first Tag Battle in the anime to be a Triple Battle.
• This is the first time the Pokémon Quiz segment features human characters (in this case, Team Rocket) rather than a Pokémon in over 800 episodes.
• Korrina and Ash narrate the preview for the next episode.

Errors

• When Team Rocket trap Tierno, Shauna and Trevor's Pokémon using Leech Seed, the vines successfully trap all three Starters. However, due to Bulbasaur's typing, Leech Seed shouldn't have affected it.
