=== Debuts ===

When episodes of the dub are aired in order, this episode and ''[[Snow Way Out!]]'' are placed between ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'' and ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', as this is the point at which the episodes aired raw. This causes confusion from viewers due to Ash using Charmander instead of Charizard and Misty still having her Starmie and Horsea (and not having her Togepi). Chronologically, these episodes go either directly before or directly after ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]''. Due to not airing when initially intended and being advertised as such by {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Kids' WB!}}, it is considered by Bulbapedia to be a [[List of anime specials|special episode]].

This episode was pulled from rotation shortly after it was aired due to the fact {{p|Jynx}} was accused of being a {{wp|racial stereotype}} of African-Americans by {{wp|Carole Boston Weatherford}}. It can still be obtained on VHS and in the Indigo League Volume 3 DVD Pack Set, and has been made available on {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Cartoon Network Video}}. However, even though Cartoon Network has the rights to rerun Pokémon episodes, this episode has not been aired on the network, likely due to Jynx's appearance. Moreover, despite appearing on Cartoon Network Video, this episode was skipped on [[Pokémon.com]]'s "[[Pokémon TV]]" video service, (and as of April 2013, removed from Pokémon.com entirely) nor has it been made available on Netflix. When the Indigo League Volume 3 DVD was reissued, the episode was removed. It is also not included on the Indigo League Complete Collection.

The English dub became available on Cartoon Network On Demand wherever available on cable providers in late March of 2012, and has been added into the rotation on Boomerang as of 2011. No restrictions were placed on this episode in other countries airing the English dub or a dub based on the English dub, but the episode isn't mentioned on any local versions of Pokémon.com. However, this episode is banned in {{pmin|South Korea}}.

* This is the only main series episode where the title card is read by Jessie in the dub. Jessie also reads the title card for ''[[SS012|Training Daze]]'', a side series episode. Ash read this episode's title card in the Japanese version.

* When an episode's preview is shown in the Japanese version, it usually ends with the words, ''"Everybody, get Pokémon!"'' In this episode's preview, however, Ash said, ''"Everybody, get a present!"'' This is likely due to the Christmas theme of this episode.

* On December 23, 2012 — the 15th anniversary of the episode's originally-planned broadcast date — it aired on [[Pokémon Smash!]] and was edited to make all of the {{p|Jynx}}'s skin purple instead of black. This version has not been dubbed, though, thus it is still banned in the United States.

* Multiple times throughout the episode, the inside of Jynx's mouth was mistakenly colored white, instead of the usual red-pink.

* During the group's battle with Team Rocket later in the episode, Ash's hat continuously changes between forwards and backwards.

* In the remastered version that aired on Pokémon Smash!, Jynx's forearm appears white instead of red when it stands next to the tied up Ash, Misty, Brock, and Santa Claus.

* This episode being dubbed out of continuity creates a continuity error concerning Ash's Pokédex. In the dub, Ash's Pokédex is voiced by Eric Stuart as it has always been since [[EP050|''Who Gets to Keep Togepi?'']] In the dub, the Pokédex's different voice was explained in-continuity to be part of the Pokédex upgrade Ash received in said episode. However this episode takes place chronologically before the above episode, meaning Ash wouldn't have received the update yet.
