* Ghetsis's right arm is almost always concealed. In the games, it is only seen in Pokémon Black and White's opening, where it is shaded darker than his left arm, while in the {{pkmn|anime}}, it is not seen at all. In [[Pokémon Generations]], both of his arms appear to be fully functional, albeit he still primarily uses the left one. In [[Pokémon Evolutions]], which features animated adaptations of many scenes from Black and White, he is depicted with both arms intact, but is seen wearing a dark glove over his right hand and arm.

** If Ghetsis's model in [[Pokémon Masters EX]] is viewed with his cape removed, it can be seen that his right arm is intact and is usually held behind his back. The model cannot be viewed in this fashion in normal gameplay, but his right arm can be glimpsed in some animations.<ref>https://twitter.com/PokeMasModels/status/1404594315364651013</ref> The [[Pokémon Center (store)|Pokémon Center]] Boss Pikachu plush of Ghetsis also has its right arm in a similar position.
