{{tropelist}}
{{examples|Examples:}}
 
* [[A Boy and His X]]: A boy and his multi-colored shapeshifting super-powered [[Robot Buddy]].
Line 16:
** {{spoiler|And Maximix at the end of season 2, who is killed by Kilobot, and is brought back using the data that Kilobot had absorbed from Maximix in an earlier episode. Possibly subverted somewhat as Maximix lost some of his memory as a result.}}
* [[Disappeared Dad]]/[[Missing Mom]]: Both Conner's mom and Hela's dad are dead. {{spoiler|It turns out that Hela's dad, Dr. Nemo, had just been kidnapped.}}
* [[Do -Anything Robot]]: Cubix can parts-shift to form vehicles for Connor, including a hover scooter and helicopter. The toy even featured a tank mode. On top of that, Cubix even has smaller gadgets built into his cube parts that can be used in other situations.
* [[Enemy Mine]]: {{spoiler|In the series finale, The Botties and Dr. K team up to stop Kilobot from taking over the world.}}
* [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin]]: Cubix not only is made of cubes, but also features the colors on a standard Rubix cube (red, green, yellow, blue, white, and orange). May qualify as [[Fridge Brilliance]].
Line 23:
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: Konfusion.
* [[First Episode Resurrection]]: No one had been able to repair Cubix until Connor came along in the first episode.
* [[Five -Man Band]]:
** [[The Hero]]: Connor
** [[The Lancer]]/[[The Chick]]: Abby
Line 31:
* [[Giant Enemy Crab|Giant Enemy Krab]]
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: Abby
* [[Hey ItsIt's That Voice]]: [[Veronica Taylor]] as Abby, the late [[Maddie Blaustein]] as Dr. K.
* [[Hoist By His Own Petard]]: Kilobot was defeated when the heroes used his own giant Zombot monster to drain him of his EPU energy.
** Considering Kilobot's [[Mega Manning|method]] [[Energy Absorption|of gaining]] [[Life Energy|his powers]], it's [[Death By Irony|ironic]] and [[Poetic Justice|poetic]].
Line 54:
* [[The Starscream]]: Kilobot.
* [[Suddenly Voiced]]: Throughout the first season, Cubix spoke like a parrot, repeating whatever words he heard his friends say. In the season finale, after being brought back to life after his [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to save Bubble Town from the Kulminator, he gains the ability to speak his own words.
* [[Super -Powered Robot Meter Maids]]: Solex makes the infected robots gain powers that seem rather implausible.
* [[The Ahnold]]: Maximix.
* [[The Man Behind the Man|The Alien Behind The Man]]: In the first season, Dr. K was working along with an alien creature to gather the Solex for their plan.
Line 67:
* [[Transforming Mecha]]: Cubix, although he parts-shifts instead of an actual transformation between pre-defined modes. This gives him a surprising amount of versatility.
** Maximix can also turn into a trike.
* [[Turned Against Their Masters]]: This happened to many of the robots that were infected with Solex. Kilobot also did this in the season two finale. In an [[Laser -Guided Karma|interesting twist]], Kilobot's [[Keystone Army]] of Zombots did the same thing to him when the heroes reprogrammed them to attack him.
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: "In the future, not so far away..."
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: After Cubix and the gang foil Kilobot's plans, he becomes enraged and attempts to wipe Cubix out by crushing his EPU with his bare hands.
* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: Many robots in the show are capable of this, including Cubix.
* [[X -Ray Sparks]]: The manner in which Dr. K creates Kilobot, much like [[FrankensteinsFrankenstein's Monster|a certain other monster]].
* [[Xtreme Kool Letterz]]: Dr. K's robots follow a [[Letter Motif|theme]] of starting with "K", e.g. Kolossal, Katastrophe, Krab, Klawber, Kannon, Kuliminator, Kontraption, Kilobot and even Kan-it, Konfusion, and Klank. Most of the manufactured robots from RobixCorp end with "ix," i.e. Diagnostix, Hop-2-ix, Lectrix, etc.
* [[You Meddling Kids]]: Said by Dr. K on at least one occasion.
