** Believe it or not, on places like [[Deviant ART]] and [[YouTube]], the fanbase is extremely divided over whether [[Pokémon (anime)|the anime]] or [[Pokémon Special|the manga]] is the better series based off of the games.

* [[Character Tiers]]: A heavily present feature in the metagame, and kind of necessary, given that for all of Game Freak's tweaks and additions, some Pokémon still clearly have it better than others. [https://web.archive.org/web/20131031114541/http://www.smogon.com/bw/tiers/ Most communities make an effort to organize the tiers thoughtfully, at least.]

* [[Complete Monster]]: There are a few examples all over the franchise. The video games have Ghetsis in ''[[Pokémon Black and White]]'' and [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|it's sequel]], Darkrai in the second set of ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]'' games, Purple Eyes in the third ''[[Pokémon Ranger]]'' game, and the Cipher masterminds of ''[[Pokémon Colosseum]]''. The anime has the Iron Mask Marauder from ''[[Pokémon 4Ever]]'', Dr. Yung from ''[[Pokémon: The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', Hunter J and Cyrus from the Sinnoh arc, Grings Kodai from ''[[Pokémon: Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', and Minister Alva from ''Pokémon: Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel''. And the various mangas across the franchise give us the likes of Sird ''and'' (again) Ghetsis in ''[[Pokémon Special]]'', Charon in ''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure]]'', Io in ''[[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7]]'', and the manga adaptation of ''[[Pokémon: Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' 's depiction of Marcus.

* [[It's the Same, Now It Sucks]]: All of the [[Updated Rerelease|updated rereleases]] and [[Video Game Remake|remakes]] (and to a lesser extent, the first titles in any given generation) have run into a certain amount of these complaints.

* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Team Rocket's Giovanni, Team Galactic's Cyrus, Team Plasma's Colress, and the Aether Foundation's Lusamine are fine examples. Ghetsis, true boss of Team Plasma, and Lysandre, boss of Team Flare, have entered this trope in anime and manga adaptations as opposed to the [[Smug Snake]] status they held in their games.

* [[Memetic Molester]]: Online interpretations of Drowzee/Hypno lean towards either pedophilia or murder. ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]'' doesn't help.
