Trivia[]

- Needle has been a part of four teams in BFDIA and Leafy has been a part of four teams in BFB. This is the most teams a contestant has been on in a single season.
- Firey and Rocky compete on all three teams in BFDI, making them the only contestants to compete on every available team in a single season.
- All of the three finalists in BFDI were on different teams: Firey in Another Name, Leafy in Squashy Grapes and Bubble in Squishy Cherries. Firey, however, has been on all 3 teams, but his last was Another Name, so it could be considered that he represented for Another Name in the finale.
- BFDI is the only season that has a team captain choose its members.
- The teams are all color coded. The colors representing each team are:
- There is no team representing Orange.
- The Squishy Cherries' logo is red, just like its team captain, Pin.
- The Squashy Grapes' logo is green, just like its team captain, Leafy.
- Another Name is the only BFDI team whose color does not match its team captain's color.
