- "Eyes brimming with dark flame, this man rejected everything other than himself in order to bring about one singular justice...' That's part of a novel I'm writing. I was inspired by the challenger who was just here, and somehow I got a little sad... Excuse me. You're a challenger, right? I'm the Elite Four's Ghost-type Pokémon user, Shauntal, and I shall be your opponent."
- — One of Shauntal's speeches in Pokémon Black and White, this one involving N.

Trivia
The Battle against Shauntal.
- Shauntal's usage of Ghost Pokémon coupled with the fact that she carries around a book and pen may be a reference to a ghostwriter, a person who writes a novel or article for someone else and gives them the credit.
- Shauntal resembles to Velma, a female character from Hanna-Barbera's animation Scooby Doo: she has similar short-bobstyle hair, and related to a ghosts or mystery and may be the inspiration.
- Shauntal's Pokémon have a secondary type which seems to be based on the four classical elements with Chandelure being Fire, Golurk being Earth, Drifblim being Air, and Jellicent being Water.
- With the exception of Golurk, who is genderless, all of Shauntal's Pokémon are female.
- Shauntal sometimes carries around with her a pen and a blank book so that way she could write the next chapter of her story.
- Golurk is her only Pokémon not to know the move Shadow Ball and is her only genderless Pokémon.
- A part of Shauntal's name is "haunt" which is something ghosts are known for when they don't cross over.
- She is the third female Elite Four member to use Ghost-type Pokémon. The other two being Phoebe and Agatha.
- She gets her stories based on her Pokémon team.
- Cofagrigus (along with Banette and Mismagius in B2W2) is her only pure Ghost-type Pokémon.
- She mentions Volkner, a challenger she battled in the past.
