Line 26:
* [[Bald of Awesome]]: Bonk, oh so much.
* [[Big Bad]]: King Drool the Third, in both series [[Fridge Logic|(despite Air Zonk taking place in the future)]].
** {{spoiler|Although at the end of ''Super Bonk'', King Drool gets sent forward into the future, so it's possible that explains his presence in the ''Air Zonk'' games}}.
** Actually, the King Drool in the ''Zonk'' series is most likely a descendant of the one from the ''Bonk'' series.
* [[Book Ends]]: ''Super Bonk'' begins with Bonk falling into a trap by King Drool and being sent into the future,
* [[Boss Rush]]: The last level in most of the ''Bonk'' games involve fighting all of the game's previous bosses before fighting King Drool.
* [[Bowdlerise]]: In the sequels, Bonk's feminine form was replaced with his angry forms from the first game.
** It wasn't removed from [[Mythology Gag|Bonk's idle animations]] in ''Super Bonk'' though.
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: The bosses in ''Bonk's Adventure'' are in this state due to mind control eggshells on their heads.
** This applies to the [[Mook|Hatchets]] too, which actually are brainwashed little dinosaurs living in Bonk's world.
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Bonk resembles Krillin from the ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' series, especially in the 2003 remake. The mobile phone game and the cancelled ''Brink of Extinction'' redesigned Bonk, primarily his eyes, to lessen the similarities.
** It's unclear if this was the case with
* [[Co-Op Multiplayer]]: ''Bonk 3'' and the arcade game had another player play as a [[Palette Swap]] of Bonk.
* [[Contemporary Caveman]]: Subverted in ''Super Bonk'', where King Drool uses a time machine to send Bonk into the future. Although he visits a city and a space station, they also have some structures made out of bone frames. This might be because the Hatchets have pretty much taken over the world.
Line 49:
* [[Mook]]: The Hatchets, small dinosaurs that wear eggshells as helmets.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: In ''Super Bonk'', some of Bonk's idle animations are all of his transformations from the previous games.
* [[Naka Teleeli]]: He did Let's Plays for all the major ''Bonk'' games, including ''Super Bonk 2'', the 2003 Japanese remake of the first game, and even one of the Game Boy titles.
* [[Power-Up Food]]: Meat which seems to increase Bonk's rage/[[Fire-Breathing Diner|make him irritated by the spiciness of the meat]], and candy which affects his size from the third game onwards.
** In ''Chō Genjin 2'', Bonk finds quite [[Extreme Omnivore|many things to eat]]: an [[Video Game Flight|egg which transforms him into a bird with the angry eyebrows]], a ''pink meat'' which again lets him turn into a girl with a tutu and ''very strong'' feet, ''weird green glasses'' that turn him into a [[Overly Long Tongue|pseudo-frog]] and a shovel which oddly enough gives him a [[This Is a Drill|DRILL on his head!]]
Line 58:
* [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]]: The Hatchet bosses in ''Chō Genjin 2'' are this.
* [[Recycled Soundtrack]]: About 1/3 of the music in Bonk's Revenge is reused music from Bonk's Adventure.
* [[Reformulated Game]]: The [[Game Boy]] and [[Arcade]] versions of ''Bonk's Adventure'' are not ports of the original game, but are in fact completely different games with unique levels and bosses.
* [[Schmuck Bait]]: Many of the red Floras (those flower things) are usually Venus Bonktraps, enemies that try to bounce on Bonk after he smacks them in their disguises. Another telltale sign is that the Bonktrap disguised as a Flora doesn't move, unlike the real ones.
* [[Sizeshifter]]: Beginning with ''Bonk 3'', eating candy will either make Bonk huge or make him tiny.
