* ''Pokemon Chronicles'' was a [[Spin Off]] of the original anime where each episode provided [[A Day in The Limelight]] moments to many of the show's secondary characters. One episode centred around Ash's friendly rival Richie, who met an older trainer named Silver who dreamed of catching a Moltres. Unfortunately, Team Rocket tried to kidnap the Moltres, and Richie and Silver had to team up to rescue it. They succeeded, but Moltres was injured and exhausted from what Team Rocket did to it. Silver knew he could have captured Moltres easily but he chose to let it go. He wanted to [[Earn Your Happy Ending|catch Moltres fairly]], beating it in an honest fight.

** Though in a way, this ''can'' qualify as reasonable. Catching a legendary Pokemon in such a weakened state creates the very real possibility of ending up with a Pokemon well beyond your ability to control once its healed, and taking advantage of its moment of weakness sounds like a fantastic way of ruining any goodwill you had just earned from it.

* ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)|Yu Yu Hakusho]]'': [[The Lancer|Kazuma]] [[Rated Mfor Manly|Kuwabara]] is pretty much the embodiment of this trope. He [[Hot Blooded|loudly]] declines his teammates' offers to keep him from dying, insisting that men fight their own battles, and later, after whupping a kid who nearly killed him and his [[Muggle]] friends, Kuwabara opts to save the kid's life by dragging not only his unconscious body, but the body all three of his friends to a hospital despite sustaining heavy injuries himself.

** In one episode, Judai is dueling someone who is using a game show deck (his cards force the opponent to answer questions correctly or else lose their monsters and take damage). For the final question, Judai remembers that his opponent gave the answer to it earlier that day. The opponent goes [[Oh Crap]], but Judai says he won't answer because it wouldn't be fair, and takes the damage. Sure, Judai wins anyway, but it was still pretty dumb, considering the [[Brainwashed|consequences]] if he had lost to a member of the Society of Light.
