* ColbertBump: Indie actress Miriam Pultro voices Mewtwo in the English dub. Ironically, this movie and the whole controversy surrounding it helped raise awareness of Pultro and her other work, and consequently gained her a small following for being OneOfUs and for taking the whole Mewtwo controversy with grace.

* MissingTrailerScene: By now it seems to be mandated by Japanese law that ''Pokémon'' movie trailers have at least one. Each of the Japanese trailers had some, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn5BvytJooA the English trailer]] is made up ''entirely'' of these:
** The Genesect Army being created in tubes similar to Mewtwo (as opposed to a more elaborate machine with coffin-like pods) and fleeing immediately upon activation.
** Ash seeing the Red Genesect flying past several buildings, shattering their windows and knocking him on his ass through its speed alone.
** The Genesect Army attacking Pokémon Hills in broad daylight with Ash and co. present.
** The Genesect nest being farther up in the park, and Team Rocket falling on top of it.
** The Genesect Army attacking New Talk City itself, causing large scale destruction as civilians flee and Water-type Pokémon try to quench the ensuing blazes.
