* When it was discovered that Arceus ''wasn't allowed in Galar'' but Silvally was, fans began to draw parallels between the game and the English Reformation: Arceus was Catholicism, which ended up being uprooted and largely destroyed as England's national religion, and Silvally was Anglicanism/Protestantism, which quickly became the new religion.

*In one scene, Sonia sees a tapestry of the legend in a restaurant and declares she’s made an important discovery, asking the player to guess what it is. You’re given the option to either pick from two correct choices or.....comment on a nearby poster of the restaurant’s mascot. If you do, Sonia will decide he must be part of the legend because of his “brilliant smile”, then realize what she’s saying and yell at the player for sidetracking her.

The sweet it's holding also influences the result slightly, so accounting for the seven sweet types that exist, that makes it a grand total of '''fifty-six''' possible combinations it can take!

* Some of the [[GuideDangIt ridiculous]] ways Pokémon evolve in this game. Inkay makes a return, and the game introduces Sirfetch'd (land three critical hits in one fight), Alcremie (give Milcery a Sweet and spin the analog stick), and Runerigus (walk around the Dusty Bowl while Galarian Yamask's HP is below half). The sheer absurdity of these is worthy of a chuckle.

* The reasoning behind the endgame raid on the Rose Tower is nothing short of hilarious. In most games, you storm the bad guy's lair as their evil plans start getting truly dangerous, or after a direct attack against you and your friends. But Rose has so little in the way of bad intentions that you and your pals ended up assaulting a heavily defended building because ''Leon was late for dinner''. They did nothing except talk. The whole thing spiraled out of control thanks to Piers and Team Yell jumping at a chance to do anarcho-punk anti-establishment stuff on one side, and Oleana being a nutter on the other side.

* After becoming champion, the post-game story introduces two new villains: Sordward and Shielbert, two brothers who are descended from the old royal lineage of Galar and have ridiculous hairstyles resembling a sword and shield respectively. The pair look goofy even by Pokémon standards, are ridiculously foppish, constantly going on about how they're celebrities, and are completely astonished whenever they suffer defeat. They're the most directly antagonistic and self-serving characters in the game, but also too clownish not to be entertaining.

Frank then reveals that Paula was his childhood friend, but she was very sickly, and he wasn't able to see her in years. He then asks you how Paula is doing, and you can either say that [[BlatantLies she's fine]] or reply with stunned silence as the realization sets in.

!!The Game

* During Opal's Gym mission, you get asked two-choice questions during battle; answering right gives your Pokémon a stat boost, and answering wrong reduces their stats. When you battle Opal herself, she asks "How old do you think I am?" with the choices being 16 years old or 88 years old. Should you choose the latter, she will admit that is not wrong, but calls you out for being insensitive... and your Pokémon get the stat reduction as if it was a wrong answer.

* At one point in the 24 hour Glimwood Tangle stream, an Impidimp takes a close look at the camera, fogging the screen with its breath. [[https://twitter.com/serebiinet/status/1180330132587913218 This ends up obscuring a good view of a Galarian Ponyta galloping by.]]
