Patapon: Difference between revisions

* [[The Comically Serious]] - Ragewolf in ''Patapon 3''.

* [[The Computer Shall Taunt You]]

** An enemy in Patapon 3 holds a chest and will fly away if you don't kill him fast enough to get it, he'll laugh and taunt you while trying to get said chest. (He'll even show you what's inside it just to piss you off even more when he flies off with it)

* [[Cool Gate]] - Baban and it's upgraded form Bababan,as well as the Paraget/Patagate (''Patapon 2''), the Herogate and the Battlegate (''Patapon 3'')

** Black Hoshipon is an [[Evil Twin]] of the normal Hoshipon introduced in the first game. An usual gag is Hoshipon "confusing her/him with an imposter" whenever they meet.

* [[Explaining Your Power to the Enemy]] - Played with in ''Patapon 3''. Ragewolf taunts your Uberhero, informing him heroes can't revive inside dungeons. Your hero drops to his knees in apparent defeat, but cheers himself up by pointing out aloud that in that case, Ragewolf probably can't revive in there either. Then Ragewolf laughs and gloats that he can revive there anyways, by usage of a Summon. Your hero then drops the act, thanks Ragewolf for the info and ponders aloud how to learn to use a Summon.

* [[Extra Eyes]] - Gate Ghoul Baban in ''Patapon 1'' has several eyes. Its upgraded form Bababan from ''Patapon 2'' has dozens of small eyes and a few large ones.

* [[The Faceless]] - You never see the face of your enemies in the Karmen tribe, the Bonedeth, Dark Heroes, or even your own Hero unit.

* [[Game Lobby]] - ''Patapon 3'' 's multiplayer/VS matches.

* [[Genre Savvy]] - Meden is normally a bit of an airhead, but she has this surprisingly accurate brainwave in the second game;

'''Meden's Aide:''' Er... how did you know? }}

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]] - Naughtyfins. Always.

** And she says that while poledancing, no less...

*** And some levels ahead, there's a cutscene at the entrance of your hideout... let's just say that Silver Hoshipon has had certain Dark Hero in mind lately...

** In Patapon 2, an item description for the Bishiri mask calls it the "Hero Mask of the Bollock Shot! Strike for maximum damage." Bollocks is an outright swear in Great Britain.

* [[Giant Enemy Crab]] - Present as bosses or larger enemies in hunting missions.

* [[When Trees Attack]] - ''Patapon 3'' introduces a tree-like enemy.

* [[Who Dares?]] -

** Several enemies through the whole game series as well.

* [[Widget Series]]

* [[With Catlike Tread]] - Opposing tribes (specially in earlier levels) often attempt to ambush you...with varying results...

'''Another zigoton in the tall grass:''' *in the same stark white bubbles* Shh! There they are! }}

** Even when they don't speak, they always end up with half their bodies showing or their weapons popping up over the grass. Really stealthy, guys.

** when you kill it, it morphs back into its shapeshifting form, but the bats that usually fly around it die and fall to the ground.

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: General Gong is later honored to fight the player.

* [[Yellow Lightning, Blue Lightning]] - Cartoonish lightning to accompany the storms is the way to go.

* [[You Bastard]] - The huntable Pekkora in Patapon 2. The tips not only mention that killing the Pekkora without killing it's children gets you a better quality fur, it actually encourages you to do it. Then you actually do it, and are immediately rewarded with [[Tear Jerker|the sight of the little Pekkorako crying]] [[What the Hell, Hero?|over the limp body of their mother in the background.]]
