* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Not only an episode where Team Rocket capture ''all'' the twerps' Pokemon and remain a threat from start to finish, but Meowth and Wobuffet's small skill boost is shown again, with Pikachu having a much harder time shaking them off. First time Meowth successfully landed an attack on Pikachu the entire series (after only 877 episodes of being blasted off by the electric mouse). Ash is actually wary about sending Pikachu to fight Meowth, something that would be [[CurbstompBattle considered a joke]] in previous seasons.
* PrehensileTail: Meowth uses his to hide the Pokeball behind his back before his face-off with Pikachu.
* RoadRunnerVsCoyote: Meowth uses Pikachu's designated Pokeball to try and catch Pikachu, leading to what becomes a near literal cat-and-mouse chase.

* SuperPersistentPredator: Meowth. While it's on par for the trio, this time he goes after Pikachu with nothing but a Pokeball, and Pikachu's attacks that usually took him out easy only make him more angry and incensed on capturing him.
