- "Chrononaut" is a portmanteau of the Greek word for "time" (χρόνος chronos) and "sailor" (ναύτης nautes), which combined, would mean "time traveler".

- Fittingly, in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime, this card is first Xyz Summoned using the two aforementioned monsters as Xyz Material.
- This card isn't part of the "Alien" archetype, due to its name written different in katakana (エイリアン) than the existing "Alien" cards (エーリアン).
- This card's OCG/TCG artwork is based on its appearance in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL episode 34: "Shark Bait", specifically from the scene where this monster is Summoned in a similar pose.
