Trivia

 * This season's name is an allusion to Pokémon: Master Quest.
 * This is the final season directed by Tom Wayland, and the first to be directed by Theresa Bucheister. Bucheister took over in the middle of this season.
 * Due to An Undersea Place to Call Home! being postponed in Japan, it was originally set to be apart of the 17th season, however since it was postponed, the dub considers it an episode of this dub season.
 * Like the subtitles "Indigo League" and "Adventures in the Orange Islands", the "XY Kalos Quest" subtitle did not exist during the original production (and thus it is not used within any of its episodes) but was invented by the official site and the digital and home video releases. Like the first two subtitles (when the show was only known as nothing more than just "Pokémon"), it is named differently within the episodes as "Pokémon the Series: XY" without "Kalos Quest" mentioned.
