Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire/Characters: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

== Main Characters ==

 

* [[Dishing Out Dirt]]: Of the Rock-type variety.

* [[Punny Name]]: '''Rox'''anne = Rocks.

* [[Selective Magnetism]]: Her Nosepass's magnetism traps Steel-types in battle with it. Not that you'd have Steel types by that point, but this can apply in rematches in Emerald version.

* [[Hot-Blooded]]

* [[Hot Springs Episode]]: Her gym basically is one.

* [[Punny Name]]: Her Japanese name is an anagram for "sauna", since her Gym is in a town famous for its hot springs. Also, "Flan" = "flame".

* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: Shades of this - much like Falkner back in Generation II, she's big on living up to the family legacy. When you beat her, she decides that attempting to emulate her grandfather just hampers her and resolves to be herself.

* [[Meaningful Name]]/[[Punny Name]]: Norman = Normal.

* [[Non-Elemental]]

* [[So Proud of You]]: When you beat him, he is more proud of you than upset at losing.

 

* [[Ace Pilot]]: Implied by her attire.

* [[Blow You Away]]

* [[Flight]]

* [[Mercury's Wings]]: For ornamental purposes only though.

* [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Dragons]]: Aside from her signature Altaria, the ''Emerald'' rematches adds the Dratini family to her team.

* [[Punny Name]]: Her Japanese name refers to a type of tree as per the usual [[Theme Naming]], but is also a homonym for a "lull" in a storm.

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Purple Hair]]

 

* [[Big Badass Wolf]]: Mightyena.

* [[Enemy Mine]]: Sort of in ''Emerald'', where despite still being an antagonist, he and his are also trying to stop Team Magma from erupting Mt Chimney.

* {{spoiler|[[Gone Horribly Right]]: He succeeds in awakening Kyogre, and it promptly proceeds to cause a ''lot'' more flooding than he had hoped for.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]: After releasing Kyogre and having his [[What Have I Done]] moment. He later returns the Blue Orb to Mt. Pyre.}}

* [[Morality Pet]]: His Crobat, almost certainly- it even gets a decent amount of focus in fanart.

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Possibly, to a greater extent than Archie.

* [[Recurring Boss]]: In ''Emerald'', he's fought three times in total (once in a [[Dual Boss]] situation on both sides). This sharply contrasts Archie, who is only fought once (after all three battles with Maxie).

* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The blue to Archie's red.

* [[Extra Ore Dinary]]: Registeel

* [[An Ice Person]]: Regice

* [[One Steve Limit]]: Almost done with Br'''e'''ndan, the male protagonist of the game.

* [[Theme Naming]]: '''Bra'''ndon is the Brain of '''bra'''very.
