** "For the love... of... [[Hilary Duff]] on a STICK! Can I attack from the back?" [[[Beat]]] "[[Flat What|What?]] [[Lampshade Hanging|That's got to be the most random thing I've ever said.]]"
* [[Anticlimax]]: {{spoiler|The rematch with Pokémaniac Steve}} lasts around 20 seconds.
* [[April Fools' Day]]
** In 2009, he did the ''[[Mega Man 2 (Video Game)|Mega Man 2]]'' joke LP.
** In 2011, he tweeted that LP #14 would be ''Pikmin 2''. LP #14 was actually ''Luigi's Mansion'', but LP #''15'', starting the day after ''Luigi's Mansion'', WAS ''Pikmin 2''.
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: From [[Pikmin]] 2, Episode 24:
{{quote| '''Chuggaa''': (While attacking an Armored Cannon Larva) DESTROY! KILL! MAIM! ...Taunt.}}
* [[Artifact Title]]: His username is supposed to be Chugga A. Conroy, but he found that most websites don't allow spaces or punctuation in their usernames, leading to the somewhat strange moniker of Chuggaaconroy.
Line 102:
*** This one got upstaged ''majorly'' by Bonus Episode 2 of his ''Pokémon Emerald'' LP, where he caught a [[Olympus Mons|Groudon]] with a Nest Ball at ''full health''. Needless to say, he shatters our eardrums.
** Borders on the LP's [[Running Gag]] during his [[Pikmin]] 2 videos, especially when it involves enemies getting the drop on him.
* [[Big "What?"]]: When things don't go well for him he usually does this. His famous freakout from ''[[Pikmin]]'' actually provided the page quote. In his [[Super Mario Galaxy|Super Luigi Galaxy]]-run, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n-u2WB7VLo#t=8m11s he even combined this] with a [[Laughing Mad|mad laugh]] one or two times.
* [[Book Ends]]: He starts out his Majora's Mask LP with all three C-buttons empty, like the game forces. He ends the first half of the finale the same way.
* [[Born Lucky]]:
Line 120:
* [[Brief Accent Imitation]]: As of 2011 has noted that he tends to slip into a vaguely Indian accent when reading out the dialogue of any 'quirky' character; in ''Majora's Mask'' he also does an Australian accent for any character who uses words like 'oi' or 'mate'.
* [[Broken Pedestal]]: ''Pikmin 2''. At the end of the LP he decides that he thought the game was better than it was because it took him years to hunt down a copy, and wanting is better than having.
* [[Buffy
{{quote| '''Chugga''': "Let's feed him the things. The things, stuff, things, and yaaay! "Transfoooorm!" Wow, he's flying right into the place where the two lava things connect."}}
** And then we have this gem from his ''Pokémon Crystal'' LP and lampshaded with the labels:
Line 146:
** In his ''[[The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker (Video Game)|Wind Waker]]'' LP, he will often say "You/I got the thiiiiiing!" upon opening a large treasure chest. He even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] this.
** In his ''[[Pikmin|Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Luigis Mansion (Video Game)|Luigi's Mansion]]''LP's, he has taken to saying "DOH I missed!" (referencing Wario's losing quote in [[Mario Party (Video Game)|Mario Party]]) whenever he misses an enemy or target. He's also been referencing [[Knytt Stories|Don't Eat the Mushroom]] whenever a poison mushroom shows up in Luigi's Mansion, even though [[Proton Jon]] isn't around for him to annoy.
*** Similarly he often imitates Mario's losing quote from the same games, "Ohh nooooooo!", often in a [[What Do You Mean
** When he gets annoyed in games related to Shigeru Miyamoto, Chuggaa often shouts "MIYAMOTO!" out of rage.
** If he gets two of something at one time, he goes "Two for the price of one, gramma!"
Line 152:
** From Pokemon Emerald, not an example, but a severe [[Lampshade Hanging]]: "...so very nice....And I keep saying "very nice"! It's like the new "sheer fact", the new "whatever", the new..."guys", the new..."one second, times up", the new... other overused things that I say."
** Videos often end with "I think we're gonna end things off here [sic]".
** If he remembers something wrongly about a game, he says "[[Self
* [[Cherry Tapping]] / [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: In ''[[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire (Video Game)|Pokemon Emerald]]'', after he gets pissed off during a gym leader fight by his enemy repeatedly healing his star Pokemon, he deliberately does nothing the last turn, letting the residue of a burn he already inflicted finish off the enemy as an insult.
* [[Cliff Hanger]]: He likes to put small ones in, often before a boss fight (or occasionally in the middle of one).
Line 178:
* [[Disney Death]]: ''98'' blue Pikmin somehow managed to pull this off in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrh4AnNpTVM#t=15m40s one episode].
* [[Dissimile]]: "Now, I'm sure you guys are all familiar with the game of golf. [[[Beat]]] Yeah, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_nKTOlw5u4#t=3m16s this] is nothing like that."
* [[Do Not Taunt Cthulhu]]: Came up during his ''Pokemon Emerald'' LP, where nearly every time he mocked [[Olympus Mons|Kyogre]] for not attacking him and just using Rest, it would hit him with [[One
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: As noted, he has a tendency to do this.
* [[Dreaming of Things to Come]]: Double-Subverted; in ''Pikmin 2'' episode 34, Chuggaa had a dream he was going to lose a lot of Pikmin to a rock trap, nothing happened {{spoiler|until the very end, when a bomb rock fell on top of his squad. He didn't lose any Pikmin, but he was pleased a trap fell from the ceiling on the floor he was thinking of.}}
Line 197:
*** Then again, considering that he says he had never played a megaman game before in his life, this kind of performance was to be expected.
{{quote| '''Chugga''': For the love of Pringles in a bag! What the hell?!''}}
* [[
* [[
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Does this sometimes. And it's always freaking hilarious.
** Subverted at times in his playthroughs of [[Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game)|Pokemon]] [[Pokémon Gold and Silver (Video Game)|games]]; usually, if a character goes "[[Evil Laugh|Fufufufufu]]" he will read it as "[[Cluster F
* [[Evil Twin]]: Seen on a facebook page known as Evil Chuggaaconroy. Apparently inspired by Evil_Notch on twitter.
* [[Eye Scream]]: ''[[Mother 3 (Video Game)|Mother 3]]'', Chapter 7, Episode 24. The comments section is absolutely ''full'' of this.
* [[The Faceless]]: Used to be one of these for a long while, but is starting to avert it more lately, with [[The Speed Gamers]] and an interview or two.
* [[Face Palm]]: In Luigi's Mansion, he says to make sure a Boo doesn't go in a certain hallway. [[Funny Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Said Boo does go in said hallway.]] [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* [[Family
** In ''[[Majoras Mask]]'': "Remember kids, if your best friend is going crazy, [[Kill It With Fire|light them on fire.]]"
* [[Fan Boy]]: Of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire (Video Game)|Flannery]], if at least to use his wording on the matter. He's also convinced she [[Needs More Love]].
* [[Fan Nickname]]: In-universe: In the Princess Peach [[Stealth Based Mission]] segments in the first two ''Paper Mario'' games, he refers to her as [[Metal Gear Solid|Solid Peach]].
* [[First
* [[Flanderization]]: In his playthroughs of Pokemon Fire Red and Crystal, he occasionally caught legendaries in regular Poke Balls when he throws them for no real reason, other than running out of Ultra Balls. In Emerald, he starts trying to ''force'' this to happen by throwing all sorts of weak Poke Balls at every legendary he encounters. {{spoiler|And even though it takes a while, he always catches them in a weak ball, at near-full health, or ''[[Beyond the Impossible|both]]''.}}
* [[Flat What]]: In episode four of his [[The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask (Video Game)|Majora's Mask]] LP, he [[Accidental Innuendo|calls Jim a]] [[Ho Yay|majestic stallion]]. There's a quick black screen with Chugga giving one of these right after.
Line 233:
** During the intro of one of his [[Super Mario Sunshine (Video Game)|Super Mario Sunshine]] videos, an NPC can be seen running around while on fire at the beach.
** In Majora's Mask, after he {{spoiler|frees the Deku Princess, the monkey gets dunked again.}}
** Bowser doing... [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|something]] to the description-box in [[Super Paper Mario]].
* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Teddy the ''female'' [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire (Video Game)|Slakoth]]. He does [[Lampshade Hanging|comment on this]] when he catches her (and a couple times later).
** Also, although an in-game example, [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire (Video Game)|Tabitha]], a member of Team Magma, who is ''male.'' Chuggaconroy [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] this a lot, to the point of calling him "The Girlyman" and using a feminine voice for him at one point albeit a silly one.
Line 286:
** In ''Crystal'' his shiny Koffing is nicknamed 'Methane' because it's blue <ref>as a result of being shiny</ref>, a gas, and explosive <ref>it recently learned Selfdestruct</ref>.
* [[Memetic Molester]]: Considers [[Luigis Mansion (Video Game)|Luigis Mansion]] to be into children, after the plumber makes a sketchy remark in Luigi's Mansion. <ref>While in the twins' room and examining a picture of one of the kids, Luigi said "I wonder if there's any goodies in there." Actually, Chugga's aim was a little off, so he was aiming at a drawer, meaning Luigi was wondering if there were any goodies in the ''drawer''.</ref>
* [[Million
** The capture of Latias. {{spoiler|He caught her, a Level 50 Pokémon at full health, with a ''Nest Ball''. The chance of that happening is ''0.4%''.}}
** And his capture of Groudon before that also counts as it had been caught under very similar conditions.
Line 306:
* [[Mundane Made Awesome]]: His reaction to a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGO6t-BjerE#t=10m54s kung-fu wolf].
** SPINNING IN ''CIRCLES''!
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]: Played for laughs in ''[[Super Paper Mario]],'' when witnessing Fracktail's death animation. He comes to the conclusion that Fracktail was a robot with a heart, and thus could love.
{{quote| [[Chewing the Scenery|He could love... HE COULD LOVE! I HAVE KILLED SOMETHING THAT COULD LOOOOOVE!]]}}
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: People apparently often mispronounce his name, Emile, as Eel. Chugga calls this out during Super Luigi Galaxy, saying it's not that hard to pronounce.
Line 316:
** And Pokemon Emerald, as it is one of the least popular Pokemon series.
** ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' is by far the most polarizing Paper Mario game.
* [[Never Trust a Trailer|Never Trust An End-of-Episode Preview]]: The end of his semifinal Pokemon Emerald episode shows a [[What Do You Mean
* [[Nightmare Fetishist]]: A little bit, the [[Uncanny Valley|Happy Mask Man]] is one of his favorite Zelda characters and he loves the [[Hell Is That Noise|theme of the final hours]].
** He also goes into a disturbing level of detail on the phenomenon of sphagettification early in the ''Super Luigi Galaxy'' playthrough, and [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] it with this caption: "Enjoy your [[Nightmare Fuel]]!"
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: He claims the only genuinely scary thing in ''[[Luigis Mansion (Video Game)|Luigis Mansion]]'' is Luigi's [[Off
* [[No Dialogue Episode]]: For the most part anyway. During the second half of the [[Okami]] finale, Chuggaa only said one thing towards the beginning of the battle and spends every other moment in silence.
* [[No Indoor Voice]]: He can get really loud when he's excited.
* [[N
* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: Taken [[Up to Eleven]] during the ''Majora's Mask'' LP in regards to things that will be important later in the game.
** In ''Thousand Year Door'', he deliberately commentates as though he doesn't know how the mysteries in certain chapters will inevitably play out, even {{spoiler|letting his partner eat a cake he knew was poisoned.}}
** Reaches rather ridiculous heights in his ''MOTHER 3'' LP where he seems to be genuinely confused when Boney is [[Paper
* [[Oh Crap]]: In his ''Wind Waker'' LP, he threw a bomb at a door. It bounced off and it landed in front of him.
{{quote| '''Chugga''': ([[Beat Panel|Pause]]) ''[[Oh Crap]]''!}}
Line 347:
* [[Pet Peeve Trope]]: [[Palette Swap]], and specifically populating the last stage of an RPG with [[Palette Swap]] [[Elite Mook|super]] versions of the [[Mooks]] we've already seen rather than original enemies. He says the lack of this trope in [[Pokémon (Franchise)|Pokémon]] is one reason he likes it so much.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: The [[Pikmin|Waterwraith]] actually let Chuggaa/Olimar off easy on a few occasions in a row in Pikmin's [[That One Level|Submerged Castle]]. Of course, Chuggaa lampshades it.
* [[
* [[Pointy
** [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: The other half of the time, this is how he views the president. [[Artificial Stupidity|To a fault]].
* [[Precision F
{{quote| '''Chugga''': Moment of truth, guys. Moment of truth. Moment of truth, it's a Machop. I am a total fucking nerd.}}
** During his ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' LP, after destroying the first Jabbi hive fortress:
Line 358:
* [[Puppy Love]]: [[Invoked Trope]] with his jokes about Link and Romani in ''Majora's Mask''.
* [[Railfan]]: Mentions in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' that he was obsessed with trains when he was younger.
* [[Rapid
* [[Read the Freaking Manual]]: In episode 48 of his ''Pokemon Emerald'' LP, Chuggaa expresses surprise that, according to his fans, the [[Guide Dang It|Braille puzzles]] to access the Regi Golems has a translation guide in the instruction book.
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: His Yoshi ended up hatching pink in his LP of ''[[Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door (Video Game)|Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door]]''.
Line 365:
* [[Rule of Fun]]: The reason for most of the "Nintendo Logic" portions of the games.
* [[Rule Sixty Three]]: Notes that in Pokémon Emerald, there is a discrepancy in the gender ratio between Azurill and its evolved form Marill. Azurill has a 25/75 male/female ratio. Marill has an even 50/50. Chugga's conclusion?
{{quote| '''Chugga:''' They grow a [[Precision F
* [[Running Gag]]: His bread and butter.
** Whenever a non-human character in ''[[Paper Mario (Video Game)|Paper Mario]]'' would kiss Mario, Chugga would shout "BESTIALITY! THIS IS NOT [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 (Video Game)|SONIC NEXT-GEN]]!!"
Line 391:
* [[Schedule Slip]]: Generally [[Averted Trope|averted]], though he usually takes a few weeks off after he completes each LP. When they do occur, he tends to give fair warning ahead of time.
* [[Screams Like a Little Girl]]: When he catches Groudon in a Nest Ball in his ''[[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire (Video Game)|Pokemon Emerald]]'' LP, he breaks into a couple of these, noting that he probably lost manliness points.
* [[Self
* [[Self
* [[Shmuck Bait]]: Telling his viewers to turn the volume down whenever he's about to get really loud. Most people take it as a personal challenge.
* [[Shout Out]]:
Line 417:
** He educated the viewers about how Wurmple's evolution into Silcoon/Cascoon was random in ''Pokémon Emerald''.
* [[Simpleton Voice]]: The voice he does for Lord Crump in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.
* [[So Bad
* [[Space Jews]]: (Affectionately) interpreted Business Deku Scrubs as being Jewish, and that Jewish people had [[Helicopter Hair]] [[Mundane Made Awesome|that everyone wishes they had]].
* [[Springtime for Hitler]]: He was so sure he was going to screw up a puzzle in Majora's Mask (episode 43, if you're interested) that he did it perfectly on his first try. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
Line 425:
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: With his Shiny Koffing/Weezing, he'd always set it to Selfdestruct or Explosion and [[Evil Laugh|laughs maniacally]] at the sight of the opposing Pokémon going down with his own.
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: His ''Mega Man 2'' joke LP.
** [[Springtime for Hitler]]: Intended as an [[April Fools' Day]] joke mocking the many poor-quality ''Mega Man 2'' [[L Ps]] on Youtube, it ended up being quite popular with some viewers who didn't get the joke.
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: While he's trying to enter a code (no, not [[Cheat Code|that kind of code]]) in ''[[Majoras Mask]]'', the video skips ahead a bit. "No, that cut wasn't because I had to go look up our code for this! It wasn't because of that! [[Overly Long Gag|Wasn't! I swear!]]"
** In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', when he receives the code for the million-Rubee safe in Merlee's Mansion, he denies typing the code in on his computer calculator and states that he was simply repeating the code to himself.
Line 435:
** He repeatedly mentions how horrible a game he finds ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 (Video Game)|Sonic Next Gen]]'' to be.
** Multiple shots have been taken at [[Proton Jon]]'s [[Schedule Slip|erratic updates]]. [[I'm Standing Right Here|Including in The Runaway Guys' LPs.]]
** In Episode 14 of his Majora's Mask [[Let's Play]], an "[[
* [[Techno Wizard]]: Chuggaa is a [[Downplayed Trope|downplayed]] version; he's been able to use a computer since he was three years old, and he's the one mainly editing videos for both himself and [[The Runaway Guys]], up to and including strenuously detailed charts for individual Pokémon information and player performance. It's even more obvious in his Facebook and Twitter accounts.
* [[Tempting Fate]]: Quite frequently.
Line 470:
* [[That Russian Squat Dance]]: Whenever he comes across a character who seems to be doing it, he sings Dschingis Khan's "Moskau". (Well, he would if he knew the words...) He's the article's page quote, by the way.
{{quote| '''Chuggaa:''' Moskau, Moskau, I-don't-know-the-frickin'-words, I-don't-know-the-frickin'-words, ah-ha-ha-ha-HA!}}
* [[This Is for Emphasis, Bitch]]: Because it's super-effective, bitch!
* [[Tier Induced Scrappy]]: [[In Universe]]. He's not afraid to badmouth certain Pokemon, items, or moves in the ''[[Pokémon (Franchise)|Pokémon]]'' games. He hits Skitty/Delcatty and Snorunt/Glalie with this hard, more or less saying there's really no reason to ever have one. Then there's his opinion on Luvdisc...
* [[Too Awesome to Use]]: He refused to use the Flower Tabs because they have the ability to fully restore FP after use in addition to increasing your FP total, justifying it in that he would use it to fully restore his FP when he would run out after battle. Problem is, he would often use FP restoration items in battle, so he wouldn't run out, meaning he would have a lot of Flower Tabs taking up space in his inventory doing nothing.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: His [[Pikmin]] frequently get into situations like this. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCrL-0D-zGg This] has some particularly glaring examples.
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: [[Pikmin|Steve]] going from being [[The Load]] to [[One
* [[Troll]]: How he views [[Pikmin|Pikmin 2]] (not the developers, but the game ''itself'') to be.
* [[Verbal Tic]]: "Whatever". He acknowledges this and vows to try cutting down on saying it, but so far, he's been very unsuccessful.
Line 496:
* [[Wangst]]: His videos are FULL of it, done [[Invoked Trope|deliberately]] [[Rule of Funny|over the top and played for comedy.]]
** "I know...First World Problems..."
* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: Ignoring his usage of this trope in [[The Runaway Guys|another situation]], Chuggaa plays this trope for laughs whenever in-game characters he pretends to look up to give his character ([[The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker (Video Game)|often]] [[The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask (Video Game)|Link]]) approval.
* [[Well, This Is Not That Trope]]: The introduction to his [[Super Mario Galaxy (Video Game)|Super Luigi Galaxy]] LP shows everything from Mario's point of view, up to and including the title screen, when a sudden [[Record Needle Scratch]] interrupts Mario's [[Title Drop]], and the text (which had been red and blue up to that point) turns green, and Luigi makes his own [[Title Drop]].
* [[What Measure Is a Non
* [[White Sheep]]: Recently revealed that he's the only member of his family who doesn't think video games are the work of the Devil and/or pointless.
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|Why Did It Have to Be Floormasters?]]: He ''really'' doesn't like them, and for good reason.
** The same with [[Pikmin|orange bulborbs and wollywogs.]]
* [[Wild Mass Guessing]]: [http://www.youtube.com/user/chuggaaconroy#p/u/0/91jKdoU3_Ok In Episode 41 of Majora's Mask], he explains his theory on the Stone Temple based on his own research and things that other people have written about it. These speculations continue throughout the rest of the LP.
