* Even though Celebi's twig monster [[NightmareRetardant wears out it's welcome]] with it's [[SpecialEffectFailure obvious, dated CG]] after a while, it does make a ''very'' unnerving entrance. After the Iron-Masked Marauder orders Celebi to transform it's bizarre, spiked ball made of twigs, we're treated to some shots of said ball morphing through rather uncomfortably poor CG rendering, before the beast explodes out of the ball as the music swells. We're then shown a shot of the creature's strange, crab-like legs, before the camera pulls upward and we get a glimpse of it's face as it unleashes a creepy, unearthly bellow, before it blasts a huge pink beam across the forest and into the lake, creating a splash the size of a ''mountain''.

* The Iron-Masked Marauder in general. He is probably the most evil villain in the Pokémon franchise, perhaps only rivalled by [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Ghetsis]], [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Hunter J]], or [[Anime/PokemonZoroarkMasterOfIllusions Grings Kodai]]. He wears a mask with red eye holes and shows [[{{Sadist}} sadistic glee]] in torturing both humans and Pokémon. Despite being a Team Rocket agent, he acts disturbingly more like a ''[[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Cipher]]''. Even ''Jessie, James and Meowth'' were horrified by his [[VileVillainSaccharineShow sadistic methods]].

* After Celebi is freed from the Dark Ball, [[HopeSpot it looks like everything will be alright]]...and then it ''dies,'' with its corpse looking like a realistic one, complete with withered, grey skin. Since it's half Grass-type, it also resembles a wilted plant.

* Celebi getting caught by the Dark Ball and instantly brainwashed into the Marauder's loyal minion. Its colors wither, its InnocentBlueEyes turn into emotionless BlackEyesOfEvil, and it goes from an adorable, friendly little Pokémon to a mindlessly destructive force of nature that can do nothing else but follow its master's orders without question, unleashing tidal waves of destruction upon the forest.

** When he interrogates the old poacher in the opening to tell him Celebi's location. When the poacher refuses to talk, Marauder demonstrates the power of his dark balls in front of the old poacher, who is so terrified that he confesses and the Marauder cackles evilly.

'''Iron-Masked Marauder''': Allow me to demonstrate. (''He throws the Dark Ball at Tyranitar, capturing it in a cloud of black smoke, then the Dark Ball flies back to the Marauder's hand'') The Pokemon I catch with a Dark Ball become evil Pokemon. And their power instantly increases to the highest level. Come on out, Tyranitar! (''he tosses the Dark-Ball, releasing a dark-skinned Tyranitar'') Hyper Beam attack! (''Tyranitar begins firing Hyper Beam at the poacher's camp, everything exploding in bursts of flames'')\\

* The Iron-Masked Marauder [[{{Fingore}} stepping on Ash's fingers]] to get him to let go of the Dark Ball containing Celebi, and Ash subsequently passing out from the pain. While there's no graphic detail, it's still a pretty horrific act of violence, especially to those who have had their fingers crushed before.

* Dark Celebi. Those emotionless eyes...
