Line 9:
For these reasons, the opinion of fans as of now on the game is mixed.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]: {{spoiler|It's easy to feel sorry for Bede after you defeat him at Stow-on-Side; sure, vandalizing a historical monument wasn't the best idea he had, but seeing Chairman Rose disown him, retract his endorsement, and disqualify him from the League, ''all in public'' seemed a little harsh. It gets even worse a few seconds later when Sophia tells you Bede's past, how he was an orphan whose literally owes Rose his life. To make it worse, the whole ''reason'' he destroys the mural is to please Rose by finding Wishing Stars.}}
* [[Anime Hair]]
* [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]: Gigantamax, a form of Dynamaxing, which make some pokemon to become insanely huge (as much as 98ft).
* [[Character Customization]]: The Male and Female player avatar's clothes and hair can be customizable.
** Poketrainers can make their own League Cards, which can be traded and given out across the region.
* [[Cool Old Lady]]: Opal, the Ballonlea Gym Leader.
* [[Creepy Child]]/[[Goth]]: Allister, the Galar Ghost-type Gym Leader.
* [[David Versus Goliath]]: This can happen when a poketrainer encounters a Dynamaxed wild pokemon.
Line 19 ⟶ 21:
* [[Expy]]: The camping mode is similar to [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokemon Amie]].
* [[Fictional Currency]]: Pokécoins
* [[Fictional Sport]]: While the Pokemon League has always been a ''competition'' between trainers, it's clearly treated as a sport in Galar. Gyms are more like arenas (with audiencespectators), trainers wear jerseys, Gym challenges are more athletic, and the Gym Leaders and Champion even have sponsors! The villainous Team (well, if you can call them that) are more like a group of [[Football Hooligans]] who throw their support behind Marnie. Much to her chagrin.
* [[Food Porn]]: The Curry on Rice dish that gamers are encourage to make.

Line 30 ⟶ 32:
* [[Killer App]]: It's a Pokemon game and one of the reasons to buy that dem Switches and Switch Lites.
* [[The Lost Woods]]: Right next to Postwick (the protagonist's hometown) is the Slumbering Weald, a place said protagonist and Hop have always been warned ''never'' to go into. At the beginning of the game they have to do so anyway to track down a lost Wooloo, only to {{spoiler|come face to face with the game's Legendary Pokemon!}} After that, it's [[Chekov's Gun| a good idea to avoid the place for awhile...]]
** Another contender is Glimwood Tangle. Not exactly a large forest, it's still dark and ominous, with giant colorful, glowing mushrooms. [[The Fair Folk| Many of the wild Pokemon here are Fairy Type.]]
* [[Make My Monster Grow]]: Pretty much the whole point of Dynamaxing.
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Ridiculously Cute Critters]]: The starter pokemons: Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble.
