A Shipful of Shivers - S2-E14

Other mistake: When Team Rocket is running away with the trophy, James falls flat on the ground, and an indentation of his body as well as the trophy is made. The indentation shows a perfect match to the trophy, but James' arms were partially covering it, so there shouldn't be a perfect indent of the trophy in the ground. (00:05:18)

Tracey Gets Bugged - S2-E16

Character mistake: Misty is notoriously afraid of bugs. She makes this clear whenever bugs are around. She seems to be OK with Tracey's Venonat, but for some reason doesn't think it should be classified as a bug, when its type is Bug/Poison, and it's quite obvious that "Venonat" comes from "venom gnat, " a gnat being an insect. She even directly states that "At least they're [Venonat and Marill] not Bug types." [This error doesn't happen in the Japanese version.]. (00:03:19)

The Pokémon Water War - S2-E25

Plot hole: When Officer Jenny says why Captain Aidan needs to get Team Wartortle to the location of the final fire, she says that Team Blastoise's path is blocked by a lorry, and Team Squirtle is not powerful enough for the fire. This does not make sense for the former as Team Blastoise later pushes the same lorry aside. (00:13:41)

Enter the Dragonite - S2-E31

Plot hole: When Team Rocket decides that they're going to capture Dragonite after it's been worn out, they appear in the blimp above the battlefield no less than ten seconds after they were shown in the stands. There is just way too little time for them to have possibly gotten up there that fast, even allowing for anime physics. (00:14:30)

Viva Las Lapras - S2-E32

Plot hole: Officer Jenny asks Ash what he knows about the "trio" when he tells her that the pirates are likely Team Rocket, but he hadn't said anything about there being three of them before that. And Jenny obviously didn't know anything about Team Rocket, either. (00:05:30)

Trivia: Ash's original Japanese name, Satoshi, is a reference to Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of the Pokémon franchise.
