* In HG/SS, you can use your Pokédex to check the size and weight compared to the player character. Weight is represented by a scale, holding the Pokémon and the player in each of the cups. If the Pokémon is very heavy, the PC will bounce so high that [[PaintingTheMedium they momentarily appear in the upper screen of the DS.]] If you use a Steelix or a Snorlax, the heaviest Pokémon available in a normal playthrough, the PC is ''catapulted straight through the upper screen and never comes back down''.

* From the remakes, when Lance suggests a tag team battle between you, [[TheRival Silver]], himself, and his cousin Clair... for some reason, Silver ''really'' isn't too keen on the idea of Clair being on his team...or [[HoYay Ethan]]/[[FoeYay Lyra]] being on a team with Lance. He immediately scoffs at Clair, insulting her wardrobe choice, then telling the hero character (regardless of gender), that you are on his team. We all know [[NoHuggingNoKissing what kind of game Pokemon is]], but many people couldn't help but find Silver acting like a [[ClingyJealousGirl jealous]] {{tsundere}}. It came off as rather hilarious.
** Also [[FoeYay despite]] [[HoYay gender]], the scene where Silver strips your character of their Team Rocket disguise...mostly because of the [[{{Rule34}} dozens and dozens]] of fanarts that have spawned from this one scene!

It only occurs in the remakes, which were released after that movie, so it\'s likely an intentional Shout Out. It\'s still hilarious, so the rest of it\'s staying on the page.


* In [[HilariousInHindsight hindsight]], this is pretty freaking hilarious: When you're battling Silver in the Radio Tower, he will say the following below when he's down to his last Pokemon. If you've seen [[MemeticMutation this]] [[Film/TheDarkKnight movie]], then this comment will cause you to either snicker, giggle, snort, or a combination of all the above.
