| Jimmy is a playable character in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and Marina is available to players in Crystal.
| This episode is the Series Premiere of Pokémon Chronicles.
| The tune heard in the establishing shot of the Pokémon Center is the one heard when you heal your Pokémon there in the games.
| The Pokédex recognizes Raikou, but the usual picture is replaced by a drawing of it in action.
| Marina's Nicknames:
Misdreavus: Little Miss
Jigglypuff: Pink
Croconaw: Wani-Wani.
| This is the first appearance of the Team Rocket scientist, Professor Sebastian. He later appears in the Season 5 Pokémon episode Talkin' Bout an Evolution which takes place a short time after this episode.

Episode Goofs |
| |
Jimmy mentions that all sound waves don't reach Beedrill because its wings flap so quick that it erases every bit of it. If that is true how are Jimmy's commands reaching it?
| In the Japanese Version, Bashou was a male and had the deepest voice in the episodes. In the dub, he was switched to a female and named Hun.
| The names of the heroes of this episode are different to what they were in the Season 5 Pokémon episode Tie One On! Jackson, in Tie One On!, waved to the camera and said "Hi!" to Yoshi and Dani, who have been renamed Jimmy and Marina. Jackson has also been renamed, to Vincent, and appears in the second and third parts of the episode.
| The Title Screen changes from the television broadcast to the DVD version. On television, this episode and Parts 2 & 3 are shown as separate episodes and the Title Screen is on all three of them, displaying each Part # respectively. But, on the DVD, it is one long episode and the Title Screen notes "The Movie."

Atilla comments that rounding up all of the electric Pokémon was like living on his uncle's ranch in the Black Hills. The Black Hills is an actual range of hills in southwestern South Dakota.
| The two main villains are an obvious homage to Atilla the Hun, continuing the tradition of Team Rocket duos being named after famous historical villains.
