Trivia
- Starpedo (transformation of Starfy)'s voice has been compared as very similar aesthetically to the Pokémon species Togepi. Satomi Kōrogi also voiced Togepi in media, but whether the similarities just came subconsciously or if it was an intentional reference to Togepi is unclear. (see also: voice clip rips)
