## Trivia

* This marks the first time that Ashley has defeated Yui onscreen as she lost to her numerous times previously.
* This episode marks the first time that:
	+ Yui loses her first Contest, and also get her first Battle-Off.
	+ Ashley wins her first Contest and her first Ribbon as well.
	+ Drew cries onscreen, after his humiliating defeat.
		- Drew later reveals his secret to Ashley, and told her about the time he and Roselia cried after losing to Solidad offscreen, this story was not revealed again until a later episode during *May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!* when Solidad explained it to everyone.
* Miki cries upon her loss against Ashley, who is later consoled by Yui, but later resolves herself to get stronger and not lose again. This is referencing to how May lost against Drew in Win, Lose or Drew.
* Unlike May who cries for her loss with Drew in the Slateport Contest in "Win, Lose or Drew", Yui doesn't cry for her loss, but rather felt disappointed instead, but then she later felt proud and refreshed, not just for Huggy's performance, but was happy for Ashley winning her first Ribbon.
