* ShipperOnDeck: After watching Brock flirt with every girl he meets, Misty gets frustrated watching him get completely flustered by Temacu's affections and decides to give him a verbal kick in the pants.
-->'''Misty:''' What's the matter with you, Brock? That girl really likes you. Why can't you talk to her instead of grunting and groaning?\\
'''Brock:''' Well, I don't know. I've never been in a situation like this before. I don't exactly know what to say to her.\\
'''Misty:''' That's lame. Just say anything. She's lobbing you one big softball after another, and all you have to do is step up to the plate and take a swing and you'll hit a home run every time.
* ShipTease: While Ash and Misty watch Temacu plan her wedding with Brock.
-->'''Misty:''' You and I will be married someday too.\\
'''Ash:''' ''(nods, and then has a DoubleTake)''

* MeaningfulName: Temacu explains that her name is a portmanteau of Pokémon that she shares attributes with: "Te" for cute Teddiursa, "ma" for super-cuddly Mareep, and "cu" for lonely little Cubone. She also suggests a MeaningfulRename for both Brock and James using similar logic.

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: Brock decides he's in love with Temacu just when she and James get engaged. Temacu is hurt and rendered unconscious while trying to protect James later, until he blasts off with the other Team Rocket members. She wakes up in the hospital with Brock ready to reclaim her love... and she falls for her doctor. As it turns out, the doctor is as much a believer in rushing as she is. (Considering how Brock's LoveEpiphany was "If she's good enough for James, she's good enough for me", though, it's probably for the best.)
