* This ghost Marowak is one of the few [[wild Pokémon]] encountered by the player after the player has access to Poké Balls that is impossible to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}}. The only other two to share this trait are the Black {{p|Kyurem}}{{sup/5|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup/5|W2}} in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]] and {{p|Nihilego}} at [[Aether Paradise]] in {{g|Sun and Moon}}; however, when battling against Black {{p|Kyurem}} or White Kyurem, Poké Balls cannot be used at all, whereas it is possible to throw Poké Balls at the ghost Marowak or Nihilego.

* Despite the fact that this Marowak is a {{OBP|ghost|literal}}, it is not treated as a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon by the game, and thus is still affected by {{t|Normal}} and {{type|Fighting}} moves.
