== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | * In the beginning of the short, Meowth is dancing beside a roller showing various things taken from Pikachu shorts: the mountain from ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' (still misspelled as "Pokemon"), the tree from ''[[PK04|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]'', the house of tires from ''[[PK07|Pikachu & Pichu]]'', the stairs from ''[[PK10|Pikachu's PikaBoo]]'' and the mine from ''[[PK11|Camp Pikachu]]'', respectively. | ||
* {{ | * This is the first time {{TR|Meowth}} has had a [[boss fantasy]] outside of the main series. | ||
* Although [[Ash's Treecko]], [[May's Torchic]], [[Brock's Lotad]], and [[Brock's Mudkip]] are present alongside Pikachu, Ash, May, Brock, and Max are not present at all, meaning the only humans that are present in this short are Jessie, James, and Giovanni (he appears in a fantasy sequence). | |||
* Also, in this short, the Hoenn starter Pokemon (consisting of [[Ash's Treecko]], [[May's Torchic]], and [[Brock's Mudkip]]), [[Brock's Lotad]], and Pikachu, as well as the Pokemon owned by Team Rocket remain outside of their Poké Balls for this whole entire short. | |||
* Although the main anime was using the digital animation process, this short along with the movie "Jirachi: Wish Maker" were all produced using traditional hand-painted cels. | |||

* | *During the practice, {{p|Seviper}}'s bottom jaw is colored orange instead of yellow. | ||
