** The ''Orange Islands'' arc was originally disregarded as {{Filler}} that didn't really amount to anything since the Gym challenges weren't always actual battles and the League itself wasn't based on an in-game region. Nowadays, whenever a debate starts concerning Ash's competence as a trainer, people will often mention it immediately, since his victory there technically means Ash qualifies for the title of Champion, and that also marks the first real sign of his growth as a Pokémon Trainer. It is also pointed out that the Orange Islands brought several fan-favourites such as Ash's Lapras, Ash's Snorlax, and the Crystal Onix, and that the battle between Ash and Drake was the series' first full battle. Furthermore, the Orange Island arc acting as a precursor to regional variants and Teraststalization gives the arc more weight to the franchise's history. The parallels between Ash vs Drake and Ash vs Leon in ''Journeys'' also made the battle with Drake a bit more popular as well.

** Despite the toy sales being higher the series it was a sequel to, ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5GoGo'' suffered the fate of not only having mixed reception, but airing opposite the 2007 adaptation of ''Manga/GeGeGeNoKitaro'', which got higher ratings.
