Trivia
- The names of Pikachu's Tackle (たいあたり, lit. to hit someone with your body) and Kirby's Wheel (タイヤあたり, lit. to hit someone with a tire) attack seen in the manga are puns. タイヤ is also the name of Kirby's "Wheel" Copy Ability in the Japanese version.
- When Phantom X first appears, he says "わたしを倒せたら天才ぞな~" ("You'd have to be a genius to defeat me zona~"). Mario replies with "怪人ゾナーかー!?" ("Who are you supposed to be, Phantom Zona!?"). Phantom Zona is the name of a character who used to appear on popular kids' variety show Oha Suta from 1998 to 2004.
- Additionally, Phantom Zona received a video game adaptation released for the Game Boy Color, which is listed on the Chronicle in the Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
