Line 4:
The plot is heavily inspired by the ''[[Paper Mario (franchise)|Paper Mario]]'' game, ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Although, not so much inspired as it is a [[Darker and Edgier]] retelling...With [[Recycled in Space|Pokemon!]] Ash, reborn as a Lucario, and Pikachu, Reborn as a [[Captain Obvious|Pikachu]], travel to find the Crystal Stars before the [[Big Bad]].
 
Like Ri2's other fanfiction, this one has its healthy share of comedy, romance, action, [[Complete Monster|psychopaths]], and [[Nightmare Fuel|stuff that WILL''will'' keep you up at night]].

Line 15:
{{tropelist}}
* [[Abusive Parents]]: Bellum not only abused Lily for a good portion of her life (Or unlife, based on how Ghost Pokemon work), but she's been verbally abused, mentally, constantly crushed, but the worst has to be {{spoiler|when Bellum attaches magical chains to her, meaning, no matter how hard she tries, she can NEVER LEAVE.}}
** {{spoiler|She shaped Lily while she was in the egg to look and have the same powers as Fantina, her hated rival.}}
* [[Actually a Doombot]]: Chobin/Arackaiser makes this excuse for his failure in the Tree of the Beginning arc. Leo says its a lame excuse but that's actually what happened. [[Expendable Clone|sort of.]]
* [[Affably Evil]]: Admittedly, while Tarantulas may seem like a total psycho, he does have the occasional gentlemanly side with the patients he's horribly mutilated. It's mostly based on his mood.
** [[Big Bad|Oblivion's Shadow]] also has shades of this. He's fairly notable as being the most polite, well-mannered and reserved person in the entire series. He's actually fairly comparable to [[Complete Monster|Deoxys]] from Latias' Journey, except {{spoiler|that he has shades of being a [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]].}}
** Barbedo is unusually for this trope not an antagonist; he was the most vicious and monstrous pirate to ever live, and he got worse after he and his crew were cursed with immortality. To everybody's surprise, Barbedo's friendly enough to Team Aurabolt when they meet him, {{spoiler|handing over the Star Badge animating him without any fuss, agrees to a fight for his ship and takes his defeat to Tiny in a drinking contest with good humor.}} He's unapologizingly brutal and loves being the worst sort of pirate, but his friendly demeanor and fondness for his [[True Companions|crewmates]] make him likable in spite of that.
** {{spoiler|If you can get past the fact that Ford is a sinister creature who has taken fighters and been draining their powers over the course of years}}, he's really quite nice and charming.
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: Blackarachina has one in Tarantulus. "…Is this seriously happening? Am I seriously being propositioned by a creepy evil cyborg Ariados using unbelievably cheesy and outdated pickup lines?"
* [[JustAll AsAccording Plannedto Plan]]: Cherry an {{[[[Seers]] oracle}} is quick to remind everyone that she foresaw whatever just happened (usually) and no matter how strange the events are they are part of [[The Plan]].
* [[All Webbed Up]]: {{spoiler|Ash, Richie, Tiny, Cruse, Cherry and Rebecca at the talons of Denchu}}
* [[All Women Are Lustful]]:
Line 131 ⟶ 132:
* [[Do Not Taunt Cthulhu]]: Or Frost Giants.
* [[Doom Magnet]]: Team Nightshade, more often than not, ruins people's lives instead of helping them.
* [[Doorstopper]]: This fanfic is so far at 59 chapters and '''1,965,453''' words. For comparison, ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and Thethe Order of Thethe Phoenix (novel)|Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix]]'', the thickest book in the ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'' series, was only about 255,000 words.
* [[Dropped a Bridget On Him]]: Buzz to Jessie.
* [[Dysfunction Junction]]: Team Aurabolt, full stop.
Line 173 ⟶ 174:
** Leo gets one out of {{spoiler|''[[The Stoic|Dawn]]''}} when he reveals he's {{spoiler|an ordained cultist nun.}}
** Likely to be uttered by you at least a few times per chapter.
* [[Just As Planned]]: Cherry an {{[[[Seers]] oracle}} is quick to remind everyone that she foresaw whatever just happened (usually) and no matter how strange the events are they are part of [[The Plan]].
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: "They were all very cute, and reminded Latias somewhat of Mew, Celebi and Jirachi…which also meant that they had to possess some awesome power, since the cute ones always did."
* [[Friendly Enemy]]: {{spoiler|Judgement and Ritche's team.}} The former are a nice, if deluded, bunch, and one of them, Silverbolt, is even praised as a 'true knight' by none other than Sparky. {{spoiler|They show up to help fight the Nihilators.}}
