I recently noticed something in Temari's fight with Shikamaru. At the end, she plans on using the clone jutsu for him to catch with his shadow. However, clones do not have shadows to catch. She clearly calls it the clone jutsu and not the shadow clone jutsu, so her plan would have failed.

I find it strange that she would make a mistake like that. I understand that she wouldn't have the shadow clone jutsu as a genin, but that is still a large oversight for someone as analytical as her.
