* ArtShift: Ash briefly turns into his anime counterpart when he calls out Charizard.
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: Darwin accuses Ash of this by pointing out that he's forcing enslaved creatures to fight for his amusement, calling him "Mighty Morphin" Michael Vick--in reference to the NFL Player who was discovered to be engaging in illegal dog-fights.
* CanonMarchesOn: Ash opens the battle mentioning his excitement that he finally gets to catch a ghost type Pokemon. At the time of the episode, he had no ghost types, but by 2020, he finally did get one in the form of a Gengar.
* TheCameo: Ash manages to bring out both Charizard and Pikachu, while Charles Darwin summons [[Film/EvilDead Ash Williams]].
* FandomNod: Darwin ends the battle by referencing the fan theory that Ash's father is Professor Oak.
* KissingCousins: Ash mocks Darwin for getting married to his cousin, claiming this is what led most of his children to dying from serious diseases. Also counts as KickTheDog, since Ash mocks their deaths.
* MythologyGag:
** The opening of the battle has notes similar to the ''Pokemon'' anime's original theme.
** Darwin's opening lyric references Oak's greeting in the original games.
** Darwin dishes Ash by claiming he's "so ineffective", in reference to the game's ElementalRockPaperScissors style of attacks not being very effective against various Pokemon of opposing types.
** Ash calls Darwin "a glitchy old man best left out at sea", referencing the infamous [=MissingNo=] glitch in the original game.
* NotAllowedToGrowUp: Darwin makes fun of Ash for his inability to grow beyond 10 years old, despite the fact the anime has been running for over 20 years.
* PretenderDiss:
--> '''Charles Darwin''': You've got no Game Boy, so you'll get the broom quick!
--> The [[Film/EvilDead real Ash]] packs a much bigger boom stick!
* ShoutOut: Darwin calls as [[Franchise/PowerRangers Mighty Morphin]] Michael Vick.
