"Narrator: It's Kevin Levin! And he looks like he fell from the ugly alien tree, and hit every ugly alien branch on the way down! And fell in an ugly puddle. And sat in it for a while. What I'm getting at is that he's really ugly looking."
 * A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Semi-subverted: The narrator never knew that.
 * All Your Powers Combined:.
 * And Your Reward Is Clothes: You can buy clothes from the shop, such as Samurai Jack's ninja attire, Teenage Ben's Plumber suit, Vilgax's original outfit (the version in the game is based off of Alien Force), and Him's exercise outfit. Bonus points go to the developers for including the Rowdyruff Boys and Captain Pollution.
 * Artificial Stupidity: During the Cheese protection mission, sometimes Cheese will simply walk off the stage and die, yet the game will penalize the player for not protecting him anyway.
 * Considering Cheese's intelligence, this makes perfect sense.
 * Artistic License: Aku can only be defeated by the sword Jack wields in the show he hails from. In this game, he can be harmed by any other playable character and a laser in Dexter's lab (which can defeat him in one hit).
 * Ascended Extra: Aku, Him, Johnny Bravo, and Kevin Levin were all Assist Characters in the 3DS version. In the Console versions? Not so much.
 * Ascended Meme: Dexter's Famous Last Words on his trailer: "My hair is on fire! My hair is on fire!"
 * Big Bad:
 * Big Boo's Haunt: Endsville.
 * Bigger on the Inside: The capsule the characters use to travel from dimension to dimension.
 * Boss Arena Idiocy: Aku's dragon form.
 * Brainwashed and Crazy: Many of the good Cartoon Network characters were mind controlled.
 * City of Adventure: Endsville, Stormalong, Marzipan, Townsville, and Bellwood.
 * Crossover
 * Crosshair Aware:
 * Cutscene Boss: The army man-esque character from the first part of the KND stage.
 * Damage Sponge Boss: All of them.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Mandy and, on occasion, the narrator.
 * Deus Ex Machina:  Though, considering his primary role in his series...
 * Enemy Mine: Averted, surprisingly, due to being a crossover game.
 * Everything's Better with Monkeys: Monkey (obviously) and Mojo Jojo.
 * Evil Versus Evil: It plays out that way if the player redoes the final boss with a villain, as the villains never joined the heroes during the story mode.
 * Final Boss: In the story mode, . In the Arcade Mode, Him.
 * Final Boss, New Dimension
 * Flunky Boss: Stickybeard and
 * Follow the Leader: To Super Smash Bros..
 * Game Breaking Bug: If you lose a life at the same time you fail a protection mission, the entire 3DS will freeze.
 * Gang Plank Galleon: Stormalong Harbor
 * Genre Shift: One minute you'll be fighting mooks, the next you'll be on a Minecart Madness segment or a FPS.
 * Heart Beat-Down: Captain Planet's Punch Time Explosion attack has him use all of the elements and he ends it with an explosion of heart energy, proving that Heart Is an Awesome Power.
 * The Hero: Ben Tennyson seems to fill this role in the story mode.
 * Hijacked by : The plot of the Story Mode.
 * Large Ham: Aku, of course!
 * Let's You and Him Fight: To determine who's going to fight Mojo Jojo, the characters fight each other to prove who's strong enough for the task. Kind of makes one wonder why they just don't gang up on Mojo.
 * Mascot Fighter
 * Massive Multiplayer Crossover
 * Metaphorgotten:


 * Oh Crap: After the mine cart thing in the second Ben 10 level in Story mode, a Forever Knight and a Vilgax Bioid get this reaction.
 * Pirate: Stickybeard and the Candy Pirates from Codename:KND AAARRRR perfect examples. There are even three kinds of Candy Pirates: the small ones that hobble around, the medium sized ones that only appear in one point in the game, and the large ones that hit harder than any of the other pirates.
 * Planet Heck: Endsville's Underworld.
 * Puzzle Boss:
 * Reactor Boss: When you have to simultaneously have to keep Mojo Jojo at bay and destroy the core of Mojo's robot.
 * Sequel Hook: At the end,.
 * Shapeshifting: Aku. Complete with Morphic Resonance.
 * Shout-Out: If Jack wins, he may say "You must defeat my Dragon Punch to stand a chance."
 * Captain Planet borrows Captain Falcon's knee of justice.
 * Going through the Endsville Cemetery without dying while playing as Hoss Delgado in XL gets you the achievement/trophy "Like a Hoss".
 * By getting 9001+ points in XL, you get the achievement/trophy "It's Over 9000!"
 * Spam Attack: Enemies do this alot, to the point were they sometimes play tennis with you; it is one of the most common complaints for the game.
 * Stationary Boss: Aku's dragon form.
 * Stealth Pun:
 * Tactical Suicide Boss: Kevin Levin repeatedly slams his arms into the ground to use two of his attacks and occasionally will get them stuck, giving you free hit time.

Also, eight new characters have been added to the game, those being:
 * Johnny Bravo
 * Him
 * Aku and The Scotsman

 * The Toiletnator
 * Hoss Delgado
 * And most of the original voice actors returned for the consoles.
 * Villainous Breakdown:
 * Villain Team-Up: All of the villains in the game.
 * "Wake-Up Call" Boss: Argueably Kevin, his attacks have high knockback, he does not keep still most of the time, and after getting his health to a certain point he goes into a temper tantrum that will more than likely hit you.
 * Womb Level: There's a Flapjack stage that takes place on some floating debris. After a while, Bubbie swallows you and the fight continues in her mouth.
