- Beware the Nice Ones: Crossing over with Beware the Silly Ones; Spark can hold his own despite being a dorky goofball most of the time. When Zapdos emerges, it can be downright scary. For example...Go: How many poachers are there?
Spark: Were there. - Cain and Abel: Blanche and Noire.
- The Cameo: A familiar trio makes a surprise guest appearance in this comic.

- Meaningful Rename: Noire and Blanche were raised as part of an experiment by Team Cipher, where names were given based on success rate. Noire, being fully successful, was ranked as a Blanche. Blanche was considered a failure and named Claire. After being rescued, Noire changed their name and gave their former name to their twin.
- That Man Is Dead: Noire does not take it well when Professor Willow refers to Blanche as Claire.

- Surprisingly Normal Backstory: The worst thing that happened to Go, according to Word of God, is sleeping through a final. This is a sharp contrast to the relatively tragic backstories of the rest of the main cast.
