Line 22:
*** May and Jessie briefly owned a Wurmple each at the same time, though this was likely intentional, as it provided an opportunity to showcase its multiple evolutions.
*** And May eventually ended up getting both a Bulbasaur and a Squirtle--though unlike Ash's, hers eventually evolved.
** Dawn captured an annoyingly powerful Buizel, despite already having the water type Piplup and not even being a battler, while Ash didn't have any on his team. [[I Knew It!|Cue rumors that she would eventually trade it to him]].
* Usopp in ''[[One Piece (Manga)|One Piece]]'' was the crew's general inventor and mechanic up until the introduction and joining of Franky, a shipwright who [[We Can Rebuild Him|rebuilt himself as a cyborg]]. This was largely resolved (after Sogeking joined the crew) by emphasizing Usopp's role as a sharpshooter and also by having him focus on personal tools and inventions where Franky is more heavy duty with arming the ship and keeping it in condition. They're also drastically different in personality, Usopp being a [[Lovable Coward]] while Franky is more [[Hot -Blooded]].
** This is also built into the setting. Two people can't have the same Devil Fruit power at the same time - the fruit won't regrow until the last person who ate it dies.
* Happened a lot in ''[[Naruto]]''. Even though for the exception of [[Elemental Powers]] and inherited bloodline techniques anyone can learn anything, each character has between 1-5 special moves that no one outside of their clan or direct [[Master Apprentice Chain]] is ever seen using.
Line 43:
*** Of course, once you actually join the Legion, the first thing they give you is a flight ring - so apparently there is one power it's okay for everyone to have.
* In the ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]'' verse, it has become formulaic for every team to have a telepath, powerhouse, energy blaster, and/or one member who won the [[Superpower Lottery]].
** ...And one who ''lost'' the lottery, either via [[Blessed With Suck]] or [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]].
*** ...if not a telepath an animalistic mutant... at least before [[Wolverine Publicity]] [http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/219810 flew out of control].
* In the [[Fantastic Four]] both Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) and Ben Grimm (The Thing) are highly intelligent and honored scholars and scientists, but everyone likes to focus on Ben's physical strength rather than his brain and the result is that the Thing very often comes off as [[Book Dumb]].
