* The English name of this move is semantically dissimilar to its Japanese name, ねんりき ''Nenriki'', which can be translated to mean ''mindpower''. This has been known to cause some confusion when depicted in the English dub of the anime.

* In the anime, Confusion seems to have exactly the same effect as the move {{m|Psychic}}.
