Trivia

• Professor Oak's Pokémon Live Caster: Boldore
• This episode marks the proper anime debut of Team Plasma and the proper return of Looker, since the episode in which Team Plasma was supposed to debut and Looker was supposed to return was originally postponed — and, as of this episode, retconned from continuity.
• The disguise Looker used when meeting Ash and his friends resembled a Hiker.

Errors

• TV Guide lists the episode as "Team Plasma's Pokemon Power."
