Line 16:
* [[A Million Is a Statistic]]: Judging by the city it is based on, Altomare has over 800,000 people living in it. The Ghost King destroys the whole city. Not even Latias, the sole survivor, holds this against him for more than a few months.
* [[Anyone Can Die]]: Many major characters fail to survive the final arc.
* [[Ascended Glitch]] - During the final arc {{spoiler|while everyone gets their [[Eleventh
** And {{spoiler|Missingno, the <s> glitch</s> Darklord Pokemon}}
* [[Badass]] - Quite a few, but Mewtwo and Wes are the most prominent.
Line 53:
* [[Eldritch Abomination]] - Missingno, Mewgle, [[Mary Sue|Mariah Susanson]], and all of hers and [[Marty Stu|Berry Stoo]]'s "Pokemon".
* [[Expy]] - A lot of people, if they don't outright [[Cameo]]. At one point, Ash battles Zorro and Mr. T. {{spoiler|Zorro joins the recurring cast.}}
* [[Eleventh
* [[Face Fault]]
* [[Fan Nickname]] - a few notable ones, though they're all spoilers:
** [[hottip:You really want to know? Fine...:<br />-- Seraphim Forme Latias (Seraphim Latias) - Latias resurrected after she is killed by the psychotic Red Ranger.<br />-- [[Greek Mythology|Talos]]cario ([[X Men|Colossus]]cario) - Rukario (name used in the story) with his [[Eleventh
* [[Family-Unfriendly Death]]: [[Anyone Can Die|There are countless in this series.]] Some are subtle and some are just diabolical [[Gorn]]. Most notably are:
** About 99% of Earth's population are {{spoiler|turned into undead monsters.}}
Line 85:
** Mariah Susanson, a blantant [[Parody Sue]] who hits every "Pokemorph" cliche in the book and then some. {{spoiler|She's actually an insane psychic construct created from an experiment [[Gone Horribly Wrong]].}}
** Various inhabitants on {{spoiler|Mewgle's fake version of}} Birth Island, including {{spoiler|Raiki, Ash and Pikachu's father <ref>But not really since Ash's father is really Zorro. Raiki is something of an [[Ascended Extra|Ascended rumor]] in the sequel though</ref>.}}
** {{spoiler|Ash, Misty and May during the final story arcs, via [[Eleventh
* [[Harmful to Minors]]: When Phanpy walks in on Crawdaunt's massive orgy, [[Crowning Moment of Funny|it immediately renders him comatose and erases his memory of the incident.]]
* [[Healing Factor]] - Most of {{spoiler|Deoxys}}'s armies of shambling horrors regenerate endlessly. {{spoiler|Dark Latios gets totally ''vaporized'' and comes back.}}
Line 114:
* [[Parental Abandonment]] - Played straight and subverted. Ash despises his father for ditching his mother before he was born. At the very end of the book, {{spoiler|he finds out his father is freaking ''Zorro''. Turns out someone spiked the punch at a fundraiser, they did a few things they might not have otherwise (Delia specifically [[Really Gets Around|did several]]), and neither one remembered anything the next morning.}}
{{quote| '''Ash''': {{spoiler|Zorro...is my dad. All this time I thought he was some deadbeat who abandoned us...or a crime boss...or an alien...or a League Champion...or a legendary Pokemon...[[Overly Long Gag|or my time-traveling future self]]...}}}}
* [[Pokémon
* [[Primal Scene]] - The cast enjoys a quiet-before-the-storm party on the night before the final battle. Some of them go for more...[[Pre
* [[Psychic Powers]] - Psychic type humans are mentioned in this verse but they pay some ''serious'' [[Blessed With Suck|costs]] for their power.
** And of course Psychic Pokémon.
Line 128:
* [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them]] - Mewgle does this a lot in his [[RPG Mechanics Verse]], just for shits and giggles.
* [[Serial Escalation]]- Gets pretty epic fairly early on, proceeds to top itself repeatedly. The sequel ''starts off'' somewhere around the level of epic of the first book's penultimate arc, and just keeps running from there.
* [[Shout
** This story has Shout Outs to everything from [[Power Rangers|PokeRangers]] to [[Cthulhu Mythos|Tentacthulhu]].
* [[Sliding Scale of Comedy and Horror]] - Breaks both ends of the scale. Sometimes simultaneously.
Line 145:
* [[Training From Hell]] - Lance and Drake force Ash and Latias to journey through an ice cavern with no winter clothing to toughen them up for the Hoenn League Championships. {{spoiler|A bunch of Glalie nearly kill them.}}.
* [[Translation Convention]] - [[Word of God|Ri2]] says "For convenience's sake all Pokéspeak will be written in English. Just pretend the humans can't hear them, though".
** And then subverted when [[The Ditz|Chimecho's]] dialogue is translated...identically to his [[Pokémon
{{quote| '''Chimecho''': CHIIIIIIIIIIII!}}
* [[Translator Microbes]] - Latias's telepathy allows Ash to understand and converse with his Pokémon. After Ash is {{spoiler|is selected as an honorary Chosen}}, he is fully capable of understanding Pokéspeak thanks to the [[A Wizard Did It|Unown]].
** Latias's translation extends to anyone who considers her a friend, thereby subconsciously giving her freer psychic access to their perception. She still has to [[The Voiceless|write things out]] for everyone else {{spoiler|prior to her [[Eleventh
* [[Troperiffic]] - By the time the sequel rolls around, Ri2 is a confirmed [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|troper]].
** And up until the sequel, just look at the percentage of this page coated in [[Pothole|blue]].
Line 154:
** {{spoiler|Also Bulbasaur to Sceptile during the final battle.}}
* [[Virgin Sacrifice]] - Team Aqua brings in a naked woman to sacrifice to Kyogre. For Groudon, Team Magma brings in a fat, nerdy, unattractive man who is [[A Man Is Not a Virgin|far more embarrassed about his status]] than worried about being chucked into a lava pit.
* [[The Voiceless]] - Played with. Latias can [[Pokémon
* [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made On Drugs?]] - There are some pretty fucked up moments in the story.
** As mentioned on the [[This Is Your Premise On Drugs]] page:
