Trivia
- In Generation III, Roselia is the only Pokémon that is able to learn this move via leveling up. Thus, other Pokémon who learn it via breeding must have Roselia as a father.
- Despite several of Nuzleaf's Pokédex entries saying that it uses the leaf on its head as a flute, Nuzleaf cannot legitimately learn this move.
