Differences between the anime and the manga
- Ash and Cross first encounter each other at Professor Oak's Laboratory.
- Cross received his Charmander from Professor Oak.
- With the exception of capturing Caterpie, the montage of Ash and Pikachu's journey before going to the Pokémon Center is skipped over entirely.

- Verity and Sorrel are first seen when Ash encounters Entei instead of showing up at the Pokémon Center.
- Verity's mother is never brought up.
- Cross does not learn that Ash possesses the Rainbow Wing at the library.
- Agatha's cameo appearance as Ash's teacher in the nightmare sequence is omitted.
- The brief battle between Ash and Pikachu against Ho-Oh is not shown.
