  • Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: In a webcomic that's been going on since 2003, Recon has naturally made several errors within the comic.
    • Brendan's Torchic initially knows Tackle, which it's unable to learn. When Recon realizes this, he has it pointed out during Brendan's first battle with May, Brendan reasoning that it's not so hard to simply run into something.
    • Makit's Vital Throw misses it's opponent due to a Sand-Attack despite Vital Throw being guaranteed to hit.
    • A Zubat's Astonish is capable of hitting May's Zigzagoon despite Normal type Pokemon being immune to Ghost type attacks.
    • Recon Dye claims that Tabitha is a woman and that Pokémon Adventures changed Tabitha to a male. However, Tabitha is a man in the games and anime as well.
    • When Brendan fights a trainer's Tailow with his Machop, the story acts as if all of Machop's fighting type moves, bar Seismic Toss, would be resisted since Taillow is a Flying type. However, Tailow is also part Normal, which Fighting is super effective against, resulting in neutral damage being dealt overall.
  • Schedule Slip: The comic's current situation. Recon updates them periodically, though he keeps the same date as when they should have been posted.
    • The most recent comic, uploaded on June 13, 2020, is dated as February 23, 2011.
    • He even makes a point of catching up on holiday special comics — so we had an April Fool's strip in August, for instance, as well as a Valentine's Day strip in June.
    • Though to his credit, he faithfully keeps the schedule slip from affecting the content of said strips. For example, the Valentine's Day 2010 comic is very bitter, reflecting his feelings as of February 2010, even though as he explained in the author's notes, he found a decent girl within a month of then (which would be more than a year before the comic was actually posted).
    • Updated Every: Monday, Wednesday, & Friday!
  • Similarly Named Works: This is the first of three titles named Pokemon X: the second is a collection of English songs from the anime used to commemorate the series' 10th anniversary and the third and perhaps most well-known of the three is the former of two 3DS adventures set in the Kalos region.
  • You Look Familiar: Recon makes numerous appearances as minor characters. Brendan is the only one who seems to notice.
