*The roar used for Zekrom is Megaguirus', a monster from the Godzilla franchise. In Movie 14, though, he had the roar of Baragon, another monster from the same franchise. Reshiram received Megaguirus' roar, as a result.
*Zekrom when speaking telepathically is voiced by Hideki Takahashi in Pokémon The Movie: Black/White and Marc Thompson in its dub. Zekrom's speaks in a raspy voice similar to Kyurem.
*Zekrom also appears in a Dream World minigame. If the WIFI Zekrom from the Black version game is brought over to the Dream World, in the special home, Victini appears. Afterwards, Victini attempts to break the barrier, but its attacks were futile, so the player has to ask their WIFI Zekrom for help by collecting power ups. The finishing move is Zekrom using an electrical attack to blow up the barrier.

===Origin===
Zekrom, when paired with Reshiram, may be based on yin and yang, a concept originating in Chinese philosophy. Yin and yang are intended to represent dualism, which can be seen in the design of Zekrom which has a darker, masculine, and more industrial appearance in contrast to Reshiram's lighter, feminine, and more natural appearance. It may also be based on deities in Zoroastrianism, two of which are depicted as equally powerful, though they represent different powers and values, with Zekrom being based on Angra Mainyu, who was associated with darkness. Physically, Zekrom overall seems to resemble a dragon and an electrcic turbine.
===Etymology===
Zekrom comes from kura (Japanese for "black"). Ze was also used in its name as it sounds harder compared to the Re in Reshiram's name. This was done due to Zekrom being considered a more physically powered Pokémon.
