''Brendan Namron: Ace Attorney'' is an ongoing series of "cases", written in the style of an ''[[
Brendan is accompanied by two Pokémon, Phoenix (a Torchic) and Skye (a Kirlia). Little is known about them, except that they are the children of two of the Pokémon that Brendan traveled with during his years as a trainer.
The series is currently being posted on [http://forums.dragonflycave.com/showthread.php?t=10315 The Cave of Dragonflies forums], where members are given the opportunity to "play" the trials, in a similar manner to the traditional ''[[
[[Needs More Love|Wants More Love]]
{{tropelist}}
* [[Always Murder]]: Played straight so far.
* [[Amateur Sleuth]]: Skye doesn't appear to have any proper police training, given her accident in Turnabout Tragedy, but she is on the forensics team all the same. Brendan, much like Phoenix and Apollo in [[Ace Attorney
* [[Author Appeal]]
* [[Author Tract]]: The evidence is the end of [http://forums.dragonflycave.com/showpost.php?p=409597&postcount=80 this post].
Line 23 ⟶ 22:
* [[Big Word Shout]]: The author tries to make it clear that, were this an actual game, it would use the [[Big Word Shout|Big Word Shouts]] found in the ''Ace Attorney'' games.
* [[Continuity Drift]]: Despite the trope below, several of the characters have been taken in unexpected directions.
* [[Conviction
* [[Courtroom Antic]]: Case one attempts to introduce a new one: [[What Do You Mean
* [[Development Hell]]: Roughly ''half a year'' passed from the release of parts four and five of case two.
* [[Doing It for
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]
* [[Dramatic Irony]]: The first case's culprit is made known before the "game" begins, and most people seem to figure out pretty quickly that the murder in case two is {{spoiler|Mars}}.
* [[Economy Cast]]: So far, there are VERY few original characters (not that that's a bad thing) and virtually no minor ones; however, many of the non-originals get their personalities and backstories elaborated on a ''lot''.
* [[
* [[Foreshadowing]]: While present, the attempts are lukewarm.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: At first, the remark from Slooth about how all of the office "computers" are dumb terminals ''seems'' like a lame plot device to make getting Brendan's results take longer. But then, you remember that the only thing you were allowed to do with, say, the Pokémon Center PCs, was to access ''other computers''.
* [[Good Lawyers, Good Clients]]: So far, it appears that Brendan has had nothing but good clients - not that that's guaranteed to last.
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: {{spoiler|Mars}} to {{spoiler|Cyrus}}; this is {{spoiler|her}} main motivation for committing the crime.
* [[Idiot Ball]]: Night Russ carries it.
Line 48 ⟶ 47:
* [[Memetic Badass]]: Red is mentioned by Blue in the second case, and Brendan has ''definitely'' heard of him.
* [[Mystery Magnet]]: Brendan is potentially shaping up to be this. Case 2 starts with him asking his mother about Team Galactic. Guess {{spoiler|who kills her}} shortly thereafter.
* [[Not
** Silver appears in case two. He's mellowed quite a bit since the end of [[Heart Gold/Soul Silver|Soul Silver]].
* [[The Perry Mason Method]]: Used by Brendan quite a bit.
* [[Plot Hole]]: See [[Ass Pull]] above.
* [[The Power of Trust]]: Brendan evidently wants the world to trust in their Pokemon as friends on a human level, rather than as animals.
* [[Psychic Powers]]: Skye, naturally. Rarely done well.
* [[Punny Name]]: Brendan ''Namron'', Night Russ (nitrous), Detective ''Slooth'', Torchic!''Phoenix'' ....
Line 59 ⟶ 58:
* [[Script Fic]]: Although case one's introduction is in prose.
* [[Sdrawkcab Name]]: Brendan's last name is just his father's name (Norman) reversed. It exists only in this series.
* [[Shout
** Brendan's Torchic is named Phoenix. He shares Maya's love for burgers.
** Brendan's Kirlia is named Skye, and she works on the forensics team.
Line 65 ⟶ 64:
** Detective Slooth uses Gumshoe's [[Verbal Tic]], pal!
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: When Brendan pins Russ in case one, Russ calls out his Mightyena and tries to ''kill him''.
* [[What Do You Mean
** [http://forums.dragonflycave.com/showpost.php?p=409273&postcount=67 Some say] it ''is'' awesome.
* [[World of Ham]]: As expected, there is a LOT of yelling in the courtroom.
