* Milotic is the only Pokémon so far to have a particular [[gender differences|gender difference]] visible only in its {{Shiny}} form. In Platinum, female Shiny Milotic have blue eyebrows while males have red ones.

** Unlike the case with Eevee in {{Pokémon XD}}, which cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon its normal way due to a lack of in-game clock, a Feebas that has maximum Beauty (via transfer from Generation IV) can still be evolved by leveling it up in Generation V, as Beauty, while a hidden stat like the rest of the Contest conditions, still exists in the data structure of each Pokémon. | |||
