Line 99:
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: {{spoiler|Pikachu}} wields twin katars after upgrading for the second time.
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: Bugsy, again.
* [[Early
** When the Evil Guardians are introduced, 10 of them are revealed to have appeared in the story at least once before--and that's with only 15 of the 17 there. (Butch and Cassidy are not present in that scene, though they arrive as soon as their Guardian counterparts awaken.)
* [[Elemental Powers]]: There are 17 Guardians and 17 Evil Guardians, one for each type, and they each have powers related to their type.
Line 110:
** [[Blow You Away]]: Tracey and Tetsuo
** [[Psychic Powers]]: Ash and Guardia
** [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|What Kind Of Lame Power Is Bug Anyway]]: Todd and Shiga
** [[Light'Em Up]]: Mitsumi
** [[Dark Is Edgy]]: Gary and Ayumi
Line 148:
* [[Hey, You]]: Green calling Todd "bugboy" starts to become a [[Running Gag]] after awhile.
** Actually, Green does this to everyone. Todd is "bugboy", Ritchie is "brown-hair", Dash is "the idiot", Brock is "rockhead", Sakura is "gun girl", James is "antitwerp", {{spoiler|Pikachu}} is "blondie", Tracey is "arty", Chibi is "the kid", Katana is "cat", and of course, Misty is "that stupid tomboy".
* [[Hot
* [[How We Got Here]]: Chapter 146: Disorganized Crime
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: Katana and {{spoiler|Pikachu}} both go through this. They get over it eventually.
Line 184:
** {{spoiler|[[Love At First Punch]]: Their ''first'' meeting, in fact, was one in which neither really got to "see" the other. Blows were exchanged, however, along with philosophies.}}
** {{spoiler|[[In Love With the Mark]]: And when they finally ''do'' meet face-to-face, the Evil Guardians have one of Mitsumi's gang hostage and she's being forced to kill Gary so they can get the Viridian Gym back.}}
* [[Love Dodecahedron]]: The story actually ''starts'' with Ash and Misty as a couple, but things get complicated along the way. {{spoiler|Misty, Green, and ''Pikachu'' are all in love with Ash. Katana is in love with Ritchie, but he only has eyes for Misty. They actually start dating for awhile, but Misty's only doing it to make Ash jealous. Then there's Mitsumi, who initially appears to be another rival for Misty and Green (this was before Pikachu became a human), but that's just a [[Red Herring]] and she later ends up with Gary. Meanwhile, Brock and Dash are hitting on everyone, but among their targets is a member of their own group, Sakura, who only has eyes for Tracey. Only problem is, Chibi ''also'' wants Tracey... Dash seems like he's finally going to find happiness, as he's got a girl who actually likes him. Only problem is, she's one of the Evil Guardians...Oh, right, and then there was the time after Brock got seduced by the fake Misty where it looked like he started having feelings for Misty, only Misty got confused and thought he and ''Green'' were starting to fall for each other, resulting in each one trying to set Brock up with the other for awhile. And the time that Sakura thought that they [[Total Party Kill|were all going to die]] and decided that she [[You Don't Want to Die A Virgin, Do You?|might as well do it with Brock since they were the only ones left]]...only Brock hadn't given up and refused her.}}
* [[Aliens Made Them Do It|Luvdisc Made Them Do It]]: Chapter 124
* [[Magic Wand]]: Todd and Mitsumi get these.
Line 219:
* [[One Steve Limit]]: Maintained as long as they're in their own world...but when they get into the string of [[Crossover|crossovers]], [[Cardcaptor Sakura (Manga)|all bets]] [[Naruto|are off]].
* [[The Only One Allowed to Insult You]]: Green gets mad at Hikaru for using the exact same insults that she normally uses towards [[Tomboy|Misty]].
* [[Operation: Jealousy]]: Misty repeatedly does this to Ash--first with Yoshi (the player character from Gold/Silver/Crystal), then with "Data" (the [[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud Strife]]-[[Expy]] they meet in the video game world {{spoiler|who turns out to be the final boss}}), and then with {{spoiler|Ritchie}}.
* [[Orphaned Series]]: Though clocking in at an impressive 173 chapters, it's still far from over and hasn't been updated since December 2007.
* [[Out of Focus]]: The Pokémon themselves. The Guardians use their own powers to battle and capture the Pokémon, so there are no true Pokémon battles.
Line 255:
** Mr. Panda actually addresses this in the A/N after chapter 13, though he states that he never actually watched ''[[Power Rangers]]'' and the transforming aspect was more inspired by ''[[Sailor Moon]]''.
* [[Separated At Birth]]: Ash and Dash
* [[Shout
** Chapter 97's A/N: ends with Panda going all [[Stephen Colbert]] on his critics.
** Chapter 127: "Darn! I would've gotten away with it if weren't for [[You Meddling Kids|you rotten kids]]... [[Scooby Doo|And your stupid dog.]]"
Line 273:
** And Gary, after {{spoiler|Mitsumi leaves}}, although it's really the result of [[Demonic Possession|Ghostly Possession]].
* [[The Stoic]]: Kai. On the villains' side, Oki.
** [[Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl|Stoic Guy Energetic Girl]]: The [[Genki Girl|energetic]] Hikaru provides an interesting foil to the cold gunslinger Oki.
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: In response to a review:
{{quote| '''Mr. Panda:''' [[Time Travel]], eh? I don't think I've ever hinted at that... *looks back several chapters specifically to chapter 85* Oh wait. I hope I'm not being suspicious. *shifts eyes*}}
Line 299:
** Like all three of the above examples, {{spoiler|Green's Dragon's Rage}} was also an involuntary transformation the first time.
* [[Weasel Mascot]]: Jupei and Ki
* [[Wham! Episode]]: Two in short succession: [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1771556/91/Guardians_of_Pokemon Chapters 91] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1771556/93/Guardians_of_Pokemon and 93]. The first has the Guardians chasing a super-charged Natu across the desert west of Pallet Town {{spoiler|which Electra set up in order to get them out of the way so that Bigu could move in with Delia}}, which only ends when {{spoiler|''Raikou'' shocks it and they realize that they've chased it all the way to Violet City}}. The latter takes place at Sprout Tower and features a mysterious man trying to {{spoiler|use one of the Clear Bells to summon a Legendary Dog}}, and also ends with {{spoiler|Chibi apparently regrowing the moving pillar that holds up the tower after the Bellsprout inside was revealed and captured--a mysterious ability that only Tracey seemed to notice.}} Together, they launch an arc that would take [[Arc Fatigue|over 50 chapters to completely resolve.]]
** Episodes 129 and 130 provide [[The Climax]] of said arc, and the latter qualifies as another [[Wham! Episode]] as it ends with {{spoiler|Ash trapped inside Tin Tower as it burns to the ground.}}
** Chapter 136 looks like it's just going to be a light-hearted, "everybody gets drunk" chapter, which it is...up until [[Cliff Hanger|the end.]] The wham doesn't let up for three whole chapters.
* [[Whip It Good]]: Chibi after her second upgrade.
Line 307:
* [[A Worldwide Punomenon]]: Guess which Pokémon they catch when they end up on the other side of the fourth wall. {{spoiler|Mr. ''Spinda''.}}
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Chapter 168. Hikaru, Electra and Oki aren't planning to uphold their deal with Lawrence III, expecting him to betray them, but nevertheless go along with him so they can get a rematch with their opposite numbers in the Guardians.
* [[You Don't Want to Die A Virgin, Do You?]]: When everyone else has been turned to stone, Sakura gives up all hope that they're going to survive and relents to Brock's advances...and Brock refuses her, saying that they still have a chance to survive.
