  • After seeing a Gardevoir during the creation of her Trainer ID, Louise tries looking them up on The Internet and is happy to see there are pictures. Then she sees just what kind of pictures the Internet has to offer and obliterates the computer.
  • How Saito met Tanuki: the Riolu lived at Flocessy Ranch and tricked him into walking under a Bucket Booby-Trap, prompting Saito to call Tanuki an amateur and declare he could do better. Cue an Escalating Prank War that culminated in them turning an entire herd of Bouffalant pink and being run out of town by a Thundering Herd of pink, pissed-off Afro Asskicker bison and their equally pink handlers.
  • Elizabeth's Machamp, having zero respect for her, zero interest in harming a far weaker opponent (especially after seeing Brennaraki's fighting spirit), but not wanting to just forfeit, decides to pull a page from Shawn Michaels and oversells Brennaraki's moves like crazy, even mentioning pro-wrestling before explaining the plan to Brennaraki. Saito realises what's going on, and can barely talk due to laughing so hard.
  • All of the antics that Mew gets into while playing around at the Tristain Academy of Magic, from becoming an Alolan Dugtrio and mocking Guiche's hair flipping to effortlessly putting all the staff at the school AND Louise's parents to sleep and haphazardly piling them onto beds afterwards.
  • Henrietta's reaction to eating chocolate for the first time.
  • Mew giving Louise the Prayer Book by lobbing it at her at high speed.
  • Arceus scolding Mew for having teleported Henrietta to Kalos to help her find Louise and the Alpha Pokémon is fully prepared to transport Henrietta back, only for Celebi to interject and say that Henrietta stays, apparently having been told so by Arceus Himself. After the Grass/Psychic-type leaves, Arceus begins wondering why he would say Henrietta would stay before giving up as he'd created Dialga and Celebi to deal with complicated time shenanigans. Then, Arceus reluctantly says that Henrietta can stay.
  • Louise runs out of magic while teleporting with her new Void spell and ends up stuck in a Spinarak nest. Saito is fully prepared to rub it in for the rest of time, to his and Henrietta's shared amusement.
  • The fishing competition:
    • Louise and Henrietta stumble on a man "noodling" in the water - sticking his hand out of a hole and wiggling it to catch whatever bites. He assures them it's totally safe, his friend only lost two fingers doing it. The two girls move on very quickly.
    • Louise uses weak Explosion spells to go blast fishing, looking for something good... right up until a very unamused Gyarados gives her the stink eye. She apologizes and decides she's out of the competition.
    • The final winner of the competition is the noodler, who somehow caught the Gyarados Louise angered, which is still glaring at her. Louise has a lot of questions on how this worked, but she doesn't want to ask because the man might answer.
  • From the Alola Adventures OVA:
  • Saito cheekily reminding Louise about how she got beaten by a single Surskit when she tried to rely purely on Type advantage to beat Viola, with Louise commenting that that Surskit was from Hel.
  • Odachi's incredible enthusiasm when she hears that Maindo has come up with a new game.
  • Louise gets a bit distracted in confusion when she learns that Light Screen doesn't work on physical attacks, like what Seed Bomb is considered.
  • Everyone pretending like it's a total mystery how the Pokémon Carlos let his Tinkaton bother found the trainer and his Fairy-type, when it's clear that Maindo and Aile told them in payback for what she did to Odachi.
  • The first time that Saito and Louise try to challenge the Lumiose Gym, they meet Bonnie, who predictably asks Louise to marry her brother within two minutes of meeting her. While this is hilarious enough in and of itself, a number of chapters later Saito tells Henrietta about it, much to Louise's embarrassment.
  • Louise going into an Anger Born of Worry rant to Henrietta after rescuing her from Team Flare. The scene then cuts to when Saito is talking to Smith, what must be several minutes later, and it's still going on, and has transitioned to Old Kalosian. We don't hear what she's saying, but a Jenny notes that she's surprisingly loud for such a small girl, and Smith notes that it's very colorful language.
