Line 14:
* [[Action Duo]]: Ziv and Blitzy, although usually not until things are completely FUBAR.
* [[Action Girl]]: Blitzy, albeit as a back-line commander rather than the front-line attacker ZZ tends to act as. But what did you expect from someone with a name like that?
* [[Alliterative Name]]: Ziv Zulander.
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: "The call came from Venezuela. It also came from Cathmandu, Montevideo, Paris and a shoe store in Ohio."
* [[Artistic License: Biology]]: It's never explained how Ziv is able to scan ''holograms'' of deceased historical figures to obtain DNA scans, or why DNA would contain their personality, memories and skills.
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: Ninjzz is the one BOYZZ made specifically for fighting, but LLP mops the floor with him in a vicious [[Curb Stomp Battle]].
* [[Badass Adorable]]: Swang. She took down a small army of greenbots, securitybots, and TANKS, BY HERSELF. And all she did was hop around taking spy pictures. Either that or those bots just suck really bad to be taken down by one robotic hopping bug that didn't even lay a finger on them.
** Same with Birden, who caused a small bot army to accidentally destroy each other AND a world leader's private plane simply by flying around haphazardly.
* [[Badass Automaton]]: The BOYZZ in general.
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Considering that his main purpose is to provide medical care, Watzon is surprisingly ready to risk his neck to help the rest of the team out. Applies to the rest of the non-combat Boyzz as well, to varying degrees of willingness.
* [[Badass Crew]]: The Boyzz Brigade.
Line 35:
* [[Dating Catwoman]]: There's a ''lot'' of [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]] going on between Ziv and Lady Frenzy. It isn't lost on the bots: in one episode, they kidnap her while she's sleeping because they think she'd make the perfect birthday present {{spoiler|(he's mortified when he finds out, and she never wakes up to discover what happened)}}.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Everyone's got a bit of snark in them.
* [[Distinctive Appearances]]: The show is made of it - the Boyzz particularly are designed asymmetrically (with the exception of Batz and All Ball), and can be recognized from their silhouettes.
** Conversely, while the Boyzz are painted in such a way as to imply that they were built out of spare parts, there's not much explanation or reason (other than this trope) for the RM 'bots to have the varying, often jarring color schemes they do.
* [[Enter Eponymous]]: The second episode, "Enter the Ninjzz". Flipped for the first episode, "Adios... ZZ".
Line 44:
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: Jungle Fiver.
* [[Hypno Trinket]]
* [[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy]]: The Boyzz Brigade typically comes back without receiving much damage in combat due to this.
** Also played with, as there aren't many laser weapons amongst the Boyzz Brigade, who generally rely on either melee combat (Ninjazz, Street Boyzz) or indirect fire (the Sports Boyzz, themselves ''very'' accurate with their own sports-themed weapons - which mostly act like explosives rather than projectiles).
* [[Hero with Bad Publicity]]: Ziv has been branded a terrorist by the RM Corp.
