  • In some English Yu-Gi-Oh! video games, the name is spelt "Dreadroute".
  • In the Yu-Gi-Oh! R Manga the attack name of this card is "Fears Knockdown" (read as Fierce Knockdown on one occasion).
  • In the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime, it appears in the 2nd ending of the Japanese version; WAKE UP YOUR HEART and in the 2nd opening (version two)of the Japanese version; 99%.
  • "The Wicked Dreadroot" is based off of Bagra, a demon that has a half-skeletal, half beast-like body.
  • Although The "Wicked Dreadroot" is a "Wicked God", it is not unique as it is used by both Yako Tenma and Gekko Tenma (with Gekko ripping his copy of the card in two after his duel with Yugi Muto).
  • Though this card's artwork and its limited appearances in the manga seem to portray it as having a snake trunk rather than legs, it does indeed have lower limbs, something that is seen most clearly when Yako summons it in Duel Round 10.
  • When upgraded with "Divine Evolution", "The Wicked Dreadroot's" neck grows longer, its fingers become sharper rather than rounded, and its legs become a snake trunk, leading to some confusion as mentioned above.
  • The effect of this card is the reverse of that of "Obelisk the Tormentor". "Obelisk's" effect Tributes the controller's own monsters to destroy the opponents, while "Dreadroot's" effect affects all other monsters and instead lowers their attack points. In some fanfiction works, this has been described as "Obelisk gaining strength from its allies, while Dreadroot gives fear to its enemies."
