Pokemon 3: The Movie

Factual error: In "Pikachu and Pichu," when Pikachu and the Pichu brothers come to the big play structure thing, there are a bunch of Pokemon around, including a red-and-white, ball-shaped Pokemon called Voltorb. The dubbers for the English version made a very noticeable error here: instead of Voltorb saying "Voltorb," (almost all Pokemon say parts of their names when they speak) it says "Electrode," which is the name of a similar-looking, but different Pokemon. The two are both red and white, but the difference is that Voltorb has eyes on the red part of its body, while Electrode has eyes on the white part of its body.

Continuity mistake: When Entei is running off with Delia, Ash yells "Mom! Pikachu!", and then the cameraman notices Ash as he runs by. However, when Charizard is viewing the TV broadcast, Ash says the line as he is passing by the camera, not before. (00:22:57)

Trivia: Much like Movie 2, the Japanese version has two titles. "Emperor of the Crystal Tower" was written in Kanji, but "Lord of the Unknown Tower" is written in English. The second title was used as the English Version title in the original trailers, but was changed to "Spell of the Unown" so as to not offend any religious groups. Also, the mini-movie's title is similar. The Japanese one is "Pichu & Pikachu" while the English one is "Pikachu & Pichu."
