Tropes used in Pon and Zi include:

• Ambiguous Gender: Both Pon and Zi at first, but eventually subverted when fans decided Pon was the boy and Zi was the girl.
• Bilingual Bonus: One strip has Pon saying "I love you" in Japanese to Zi.
• Color Coded for Your Convenience: Pon is yellow and Zi is blue.
• Crowning Moment of Funny: "I went to pick you a flower, but it was a Venus flytrap and it bit my head, so I killed it and got you this piece of grass instead."
  • "Umm, be happy, okay? I killed it [the spider] for you."
• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: So very many.
  • "I love you to the moon Pluto and back."
  • "I'll just pretend to hug you until you get here."
  • "No matter how much I practice, I can't make pictures of you pretty enough..."
  • (pointing to a very ugly drawing on the wall) "Even if you were horrifically disfigured in a freak accident and looked like thiiiis, I'd still love you."
  • "Keep me safe while I sleep."
• Cuteness Proximity
• Emo Teen: Pon. The "teen" part is debatable, though...
• The Hero: Pon.
• Minimalist Cast
• My God, What Have I Done?: "I made you a cookie, but I eated it."

• Tear Jerker: Teddies don't hug back, but sometimes they're all you've got.
  • Even heaven is hell without you.
  • The strip where Pon is sitting by a lake, lowering his fishing pole towards the water...with his heart impaled on it.
  • Aww...the sky is crying.
• The Power of Love: Pretty much the whole point.
• Tsundere: Zi. "Stop looking at me, ...idiot."
• Uncanny Valley: They look a bit close to it, just having big blank eyes with no irises or pupils. Their actual personalities make up for it, though.
