* WinsByDoingAbsolutelyNothing: It still takes a special Poké Ball (a Luxury Ball that [[ContrivedCoincidence James just happened to have]]), but as Meowth [[LampshadeHanging points out]], Jessie didn't have to weaken Mimikyu any to catch it. It's still the most effort she's ever put into a catch besides [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown Seviper]] back in Hoenn.

* CarnivoreConfusion: A weird example. Rowlet, as an owl, should logically be a predator. And it does attack Mallow's Bounsweet. . . but only because ''it mistakes it for a fruit'', not because it actually wanted to eat the other Pokémon.

* CarnivoreConfusion: Rowlet thought Bounsweet was fruit instead of a Pokémon. Fortunately, Bounsweet can take care of herself, ultimately fainting it with little effort.

As Team Rocket tries to deal with Bewear's insistent hospitality, Ash takes interest in a Rowlet that was attracted to Mallow's Bounsweet. When Team Rocket target Rowlet's diverse family, the twerps find that Mimikyu has chosen its side.

!!This episode contains examples of the following tropes:
* BalloonBelly: Meowth and Wobbuffet have this when Bewear finally leaves them alone in its den.
* DiverseFamily: Somehow, Rowlet's egg ended up in a Pikipek nest. Trumbeak and Toucannon have been raising it with their Pikipek children ever since.
* DivingSave: On the last strike from Bounsweet, Rowlet is sent flying into power lines, and falls to the ground. Ash dives in to catch it.
* ExactWords: Meowth told Jessie and James that Bewear said it was "dinner time". They immediately fear that ''they'' are on the menu. That is, until Bewear starts feeding ''them'' Combee honey.
* IJustWantToBeLoved: Mimikyu swats away Jessie's Poké Ball. But lets itself be caught when Jessie swipes James's Luxury Ball.
* LostFoodGrievance: Team Rocket targeted the Pikipek because they flew in and grabbed all of Bewear's fruit stock.
* MistakenForFood: Rowlet thought Bounsweet was fruit instead of a Pokémon. Fortunately, Bounsweet can take care of herself, ultimately fainting it with little effort.
* ATwinkleInTheSky: {{Averted}}. When the going gets tough for Team Rocket, Bewear rushes in and grabs them all, carrying them off. They failed to swipe the Pikipek, but they did get Bewear's fruit back.
