Come the Apocalypse - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is flying toward Adler's lab, you can see the building is several stories off the ground. When she flies in through the hole in the roof, the interior of the lab is on the top-level, whereas the previous episode showed that the lab was on the ground level. (00:12:55)

Come the Apocalypse - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is shackling Dr. Adler to the platform, she only applies the restraints to his arms and left foot, leaving the right foot unshackled. Moments after Adler reveals himself to Rogue to being Mystique, the right foot is now shackled as well. (00:13:31 - 00:14:08)

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Wolverine is asking Bishop if he knows him from somewhere, his pupils have been drawn as small black circles inside a blue circle that are the same color as his eyes. Within the same shot, his small pupils suddenly become larger by filling in the rest of the blue circle, and then just as quickly go back to being small. (00:04:27)

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Bishop is holding out his ID card for the Sentinel to scan, the card is gray with a red stripe on top, a lighter gray stripe underneath it, and a white mark underneath that. When the shot changes, the entire card is the same shade of gray. Additionally, in some of the shots of Bishop holding out the card, the he is wearing the temporal band on his arm that he doesn't receive until a few minutes later in the episode. (00:04:55)

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Bishop peeks out of the alley after arriving in the past, there is a wrecked car on the right side of the screen, with a fire hydrant near its front bumper, on an uninterrupted sidewalk. When the shot changes to Bishop stepping out of the alley, the fire hydrant is now by the car's rear bumper, and there is a driveway leading into the alley. Additionally, the building that is behind Bishop changes color from red to green. (00:10:09)

A Rogue's Tale - S2-E9

Plot hole: In the season one episode The Cure, when Pyro and Avalanche are in the bar on Muir Island waiting for Mystique to arrive, Avalanche says "This friend of yours better show up soon or I'm going back to jail, just for something to do!" Rogue then comes in and Pyro suggests to Avalanche that Rogue could be Mystique, to which Avalanche responds "What do you mean it could be? Don't you know what she looks like?", leading Pyro to tell Avalanche that Mystique is a shape-shifter. This dialogue implies that Avalanche has no idea who Mystique is, which is further substantiated when Pyro and Avalanche kidnap Mystique later in the episode while she is in the guise of Dr. Adler, and Avalanche didn't recognize Mystique when she revealed her true form. However in this episode it is shown that Pyro and Avalanche were both previously members of Mystique's Brotherhood of Mutants, so Avalanche should already know who Mystique is without Pyro having to tell him. Rogue was also a member of that group yet neither Pyro nor Avalanche recognize her.
