Line 34:
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]: {{spoiler|Manaphy}}, who gets beaten up and down with silly ease once our heroes break his {{spoiler|Heart Swap}} gimmick.
** Also {{spoiler|Ford}}. Who, unlike his Paper Mario counterpart, {{spoiler|Grubba}} does not get a chance to go [[One-Winged Angel]], or even have a proper fight with the heroes. Lampshaded by Leo during the next arc.
* [[Anti-Hero]]: Aeon of Team Quantum. The rest of his team are already here, but he pushes the trope far when he puts {{spoiler|Team Ebony}} through a downright horrid [[Training
* [[Anti-Villain]]: According to Richie, Light of Justice is a type III; a [[Nice Guy]] with a noble goal who wants to be Richie's best friend. He just happens to be a [[Knight Templar]]. {{spoiler|Thus, it isn't surprising that he is the reincarnation of N, King of Team Plasma. Also, when the Light of Justice hears of the true extent of the Nihilator's crimes, he wants to put aside the gathering of Arceus' plates to focus on the Nihilator's destruction, and is certain that his organization and Team Getem can put aside their conflict to defeat an organization that is truly evil.}}
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Frequently, but one case in particular stands out in relation to Lily and the above trope.
Line 58:
*** And when {{spoiler|his mustache is removed via Shadow Lugia smashing him through THIRTY FIVE battleships, Briney loses his mustache. (don't worry, he gets it back) This is apparently traumatic enough for him to [[Tear Jerker|shed a tear.]] He dosen't appear to care much about the fact that he lost an arm in the same attack though... (he gets that back too.)}}
** The first time Briney and Scotty speak over video chat, their first impression of each other is "my mustache is better than his."
* [[Badass Preacher]]: Father Yamiri, who between the friendly-but-wise demeanor, explosive ofuda, and hugeass mace, seems to be a fusion of a Western [[Good Shepherd]], a Shinto shrine priest, and a [[Dungeons
* [[Battle Butler]]: Butler, [[His Name Really Is "Barkeep"|naturally]].
* [[Berserk Button]]: The ''very sight'' of Oblivion's Shadow to Ash. This is a very, ''very'' bad thing.
Line 278:
* [[Mind Screw]]: Your constant companion throughout the book.
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: {{spoiler|Lily}} refers to Leo as her "significant other" while he's in crossdressed disguise. Fantina gets the wrong impression.
* [[The Mole]]: A heroic version, {{spoiler|May took a considerable [[Took a Level
** Another heroic version, {{spoiler|Sasha}} has been spying on Team Aurabolt on Darkrai's behalf since the beginning. This Mole came clean about this however, and to be fair there hasn't really been any conflict of interest.
** A more tragic version, {{spoiler|T-Bone of Team ACT was a Mole for Team Rocket (the Iron Masked Marauder, in fact), and in attempting to infiltrate the Monkey King's army for them, got Allen killed and Charlie captured and brutalized. [[Black and Gray Morality|It's hard to blame him for this]], too, since Team Rocket blackmailed him into joining to save his wife and child.}}
Line 425:
* [[Tsundere]] Outlaw {{spoiler|Once she's revealed to be a transfomer}} she makes it clear that she does not care about the 'meat bags' in her seats ''while she's protecting them''. She's distraught about lossing Max to Bellum but, as is standard for the trope, denies and makes exuses.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]] {{spoiler|There is a reason Chobin has been cloned repeatedly, especially when he does things like jump into a swarm of ravenous robo spiders....}}
* [[Took a Level
* [[Transforming Mecha]]: {{spoiler|THE DESOTO. A Decepticon to be exact. We are as surprised as you. }}
* [[Twitchy Eye]]: Several characters when assaulted by gratuitous weirdness, but most notably [[Only Sane Man|Pikachu]].
Line 437:
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: Mewgle and {{spoiler|Mie/Molly Hale's}} duel through the most epic game ever of {{spoiler|Scrabble}}.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Two examples: One when Misty berates Ash for whining that [[I Just Want to Be Normal|he does not want his life to always have him needed to save the world]] when {{spoiler|Annihilation is destroying every living being in sight}}, and pretty much the entirety of the Ash vs Oblivion's Shadow fight, where Oblivion's Shadow constantly calls Ash out on becoming obsessed with killing him.
** Paradox and Chrono give one to Aeon when he puts Team Ebony through an utterly ''horrible'' [[Training
* [[World of Badass]]: Let's face it. A Ctrl-F search on "badass" yields 14 things on this page at last count, so if you read this far down, you were probably thinking it. You're right.
* [[World of Ham]]
Line 449:
** Bellum and Fantima manage to have an utterly spectacular moment of this.
* [[Yank the Dog's Chain]]: {{spoiler|In chapter 53, Ash and Dawn come inches away from killing Articuno and Paul respectively, only for the ice wave to freeze them and Bellum to take them away before they can do the job. When Lily has Bellum on the ropes, she's tricked into letting Bellum go as well to save them.}}
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: Pro Tip: Don't fail Oblivion's Shadow. He won't KILL you if you still have use, but he will make you wish for death.
** Weirdly, inverted for the most part -- the Nihilators being an apocalypse cult and all, Oblivion's Shadow ''does'' kill you if you ''succeed.''
* [[You Never Asked]]: Lily initially forgets to mention several important plot points, including the identity of one of the Big Bads.
