During the early days of the TV series, there were many rumors going around that Giovanni, the head of Team Rocket, was Ash's father. This was the first (and so far, only) time the two meet, yet they don't seem to recognize each other. This film disproved that rumor. [Ash's Father left when Ash was only a kid, around the age 2. Ash is at least 11 in this movie. Nine years have passed, so they wouldn't recognize each other.]

Mistakes
There's no visible evidence that Team Rocket has taken away Ash, Misty, and Brock's Poké Balls when the gang was in the cage, so why don't the Trainers call out their Pokémon (Brock's Onix would've helped out very much) and escape the cage? See more...
Trivia
Whenever the clone Meowth talks, if you listen hard enough it's possible to tell that it isn't saying its name or variants on it. Instead, it says 'nyaa' and 'nyaarth' - the Japanese name for Meowth. Apparently they decided that it sounded enough like it was supposed to to make it not worth getting a voice-actor for the Meowth clone. Interestingly enough, I believe the Meowth clone in Mewtwo Strikes Back /did/ say its American dub name. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

When all the good guys are in jail, they try to figure a way out, and then happily escape when the explosion from the factory destroys the jail cell. Now, we see that the bars aren't electrified, as Ash grabs onto the bars many times. Why don't the cloned Pokémon just break out of there? I'm sure that giant Gyarados could easily break those metal bars. [The Pokemon only do what their master or trainer tells them to do. In the case of the clone Pokemon, Mewtwo is their trainer, so they won't do anything unless they are specifically told by Mewtwo what to do.]
In the scene where Mewtwo is caught in the beam from the two robots, Ash, Brock and their pokemon destroy the red robot, and the black robot goes haywire, then it switches to the shot with Mewtwo falling, then back to the shot with the black robot, which miraculously, is now red. [Both robots turn a bright red when they start torturing Mewtwo.]
