* AdaptationalKarma: In ''Journeys'', Morpeko is never punished for all the grief they gave to Team Rocket for making them starve due to their appetite. In the story, Team Rocket delivered them to Team Rocket to get them out of their hair, and also indirectly giving Mattori karma as well.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Alternate Gloria asks Alternate Ryu why he doesn't put his Digimon in a duffel bag, he explains that the one he wanted got a lot of bad reviews due to how people were incapable of keeping their Nebbies from escaping.[[note]]It's a meme from ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'' for how Nebby (Cosmog) would always escape Lillie's bag, to the point people literally left joke reviews in regards to said meme.[[/note]]

It's noted that when a swarm of bats attacks him, Gladion, and Tokio, the tip of Specter's staff unleashes electricity which is impossible because Easter is currently with Ai at this point.

* PragmaticVillainy: Chiller ''could'' trap the Apex in a place that's presumably much safer than the Fog Car but he refuses because he has a store full of dangerous artifacts that, should the Apex take even one of them, would spell doom for the entire train. Case in point, he's got a RewritingReality typewriter, so if the Apex wrote that the ruled the Train, then so be it.

* CallBack: When Team Rocket see that Looker is at the same ramen cart they're at, they call him Mr. Lunchbox and how he hasn't been seen since Unova. The nickname comes from their first meeting, when he bought a train full of bento boxes for the trio to eat.

* IncompatibleOrientation: When Alternate Ryu asks if Aoi has a crush on Specter, Aoi completely denies it with Emma stating it wouldn't work out due to Specter's heart belonging to Ryoken.


Added DiffLines:

* OutsideContextProblem: Tres and those like him, Moonlight Passengers, are this for the Train itself. Normally, the Train only picks up people it senses to be at a crossroads in their life/trying to safe them from death (ie, takes Grace when she's being punished for petty larceny, gets Tulip out of the snow on her trek to coding camp, preventing Amelia from committing suicide). Moonlight Passengers are ''somehow'' able to enter the Train without having to wait for it, and they're signified by a blue moon on the back of their right hands.

to:

* MortonsFork: In hindsight, Gladion realized he was stuck no matter what he did. Stay with Lillie to tell the truth? High chance Faba would've used Hypno to repress the memories or lie to Lusamine of what happened. Run away to train? That meant he deliberately withheld the information and made Lillie suffer in silence. Gladion then notes that if he just did ''both'' -- told the truth and then tell Lillie he'll be off to train but promise to return -- he might've had a better chance than just bolting.
