==Trivia==
* In her sync pair story, Anabel reveals that Snorlax was her first partner Pokémon. She also reveals that she has multiple other Pokémon that she chooses not to disclose to the player at the present time.
* The background music used on Anabel's sync pair scout screen and in battles against her is the Pokémon Masters EX version of the Hoenn Frontier Brain theme, mimicking how battles with her in the Battle Tree can use the original theme from .
* All versions of Anabel use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon). Those Trainers include , , , and .
** Anabel also uses special voice-over lines upon winning a battle with Looker or Emma in the same team.
* Starting from version 2.31.0, if the player had recruited Anabel and she appeared in the Pokémon Center, she would occasionally appear talking to the she rented in the event. Unlike in the event, she could appear anywhere in the Pokémon Center, have her Snorlax in addition to Togepi, and wear her EX outfit. Her dialogue was identical to that of the event, but when the player spoke to her, she and Togepi abruptly rotated 180 degrees to have the conversation while facing away from the player. If the player spoke to her again, she and Togepi would rotate around again to have the conversation while facing the player. This bug was fixed in version 2.33.0.
* Anabel and are the only characters who could be battled in any area in the Battle Rally upon its debut.
