* This is the first movie where {{an|Brock}} isn't a main character, though he has a cameo; when Professor Ivy calls Professor Oak to inform him of the unstable weather situation, Brock can be seen in the background, running from side to side in a frenzy (presumably doing multiple chores at the same time, as he can be seen carrying a {{p|Nidorina}} and a {{p|Paras}}).
