Played straight with Dr. Zager, who is never seen again after this episode aside from a split second cameo on the final end credits of ''Best Wishes'', which is never seen in the international dub.

** The ''Pokémon Live Caster'' at the end of the Japanese episode's initial airing showed Team Rocket's previous Pokémon. They then showed three phone numbers where fans could vote for either Wobbuffet, Mime Jr., or Dustox to return to the series. A winner would be drawn to win a Nintendo 3DS XL. [[spoiler:Wobbuffet won, and would return in the final ''Best Wishes'' episode to be added for ''Pokémon XY''.]] Subsequent airings would put Drilbur on the ''Live Caster''
