Line 13:
{{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]]: To varying degrees with some characters. Exaggerated with Swordbert and Shielbert
* [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]: Gigantamax, a form of Dynamaxing, which make some pokemon to become insanely huge (as much as 98ft).
* [[Awesome But Impractical]]: Eternatus' Dynamax Cannon is a Dragon-Type move that has a Power of 100, which increases to 200 if the opposing Pokemon is Dynamaxed. Pretty neat, but not all-too useful against regular-sized Pokemon.
Line 58:
** Marnie is the middle-ground. She holds no real animosity towards the protagonist, but has a competitive streak of sorts that causes her to see ''any'' opponent as an obstacle that has to be crushed.
* [[Rivals Team Up]]: In real life, gamers can connect online just to take down a wild Gigantamax pokemon. Also, in-game, both Hop and Marnie aid the player against the villains, Hop doing so again in the post-game story.
* [[Scenery Porn]]: The background vistas of many locations are often quite scenic, with a common complaint being that players wanted to experience more of the interesting places showcased in the game.
** Ballonlea is a picturesque fairy themed village in the woods.
** The ancient monuments in Turffield.
** Motostoke is one of the more visually distinct cities in the series, featuring a variety of exposed machinery nestled amongst heavy use of masonry.
** Hammerlocke is effectively a giant castle city, with of the castle dominating the skyline even in the adjacent wild area.
* [[Skirt Over Slacks|Shorts Over Leggings]]
* [[Sissy Villain]]: Bede; pink overcoat that resembles a dress, large blue eyes with long lashes... A lot of fans have actually gotten his gender wrong, possibly because the first time ''anyone'' refers to him with a pronoun occurs after you've beaten the fifth Gym.
