9!!This episode contains examples of the following tropes:
10* BreatherEpisode: After the heavy Team Galactic climax, lets enjoy a silly, comical romp.
11* ChekhovsGag: Jessie disguises herself as Jessebelle in order to steal the treasure chest. At the end of the episode, Team Rocket gets sent blasting off, and somehow it was ''Jessebelle'' who was sent flying with James and Meowth, to James' horror.
12* EnemyMine: Ash, Brock and Dawn help protect James when Jessebelle comes knocking.
13* EvilDetectingDog: Growlie didn't like Jessebelle from the start. With good reason, as time proved.
14* HopeSpot: After Ash complies with James' request, James was ''happy'' in his "flight path", only to [[OhCrap realize]] that it wasn't Jessie who was sent flying with him and Meowth.
15* ImplacableMan: Now that she's got a lead on her betrothed, Jessebelle is pulling out all the stops in order to capture him this time.
16* MiniMecha: The treasure chest can trasform into one to fight, if somebody tries too many wrong passwords.
17* NeverMyFault: Despite digging up the chest and bringing it right to the estate, the twerps (specifically Dawn) refuse to see why they should help James escape his fiancé. Slightly justified since he is technically a criminal.
18* NiceJobBreakingItHero[=/=]SpannerInTheWorks: James actually came close to getting his treasure chest away from his servant Sebastian without getting discovered, until he finds out too late that his Growlie is also in the estate. Growlie proceeds to pounce on his master, revealing the whole facade.
19* ThePasswordIsAlwaysSwordfish: Even easier... James remembers right at the end that the vocal command to open the chest was "Open, password".
20* RetCanon: Here, it’s shown that Jassiebelle turned James off when she suggested he replace Growlie with a Skitty. This was probably not the intention of the writers for the episode this one is a sequel to, since Skitty didn’t exist back then.
21* SequelEpisode: To Holy Matrimony ''way'' back in the first season
22* TransformingMecha: James's treasure chest can turn from a little robot to a rocket.
