What if [[Gotta Catch Em All|catching them all]] were a matter of [[The End of the World
=== Tropes that apply to ''Guardians of Pokemon'': ===
----
* [[A
* [[All Just a Dream]]: {{spoiler|Chapter 150}}
* [[All Your Powers Combined]]: Not really ''all'' the powers, but Guardians often have to combine their powers to catch dual-type Pokemon. ''But not always'', as Panda reminds us every time a dual-type is caught by a single Guardian and reviews start complaining.
Line 18:
* [[Arc Fatigue]]: The "giving up as an April Fool's joke" is used, and the former [[Trope Namer]] [[Arc Fatigue|Are We Still On Namek]] [[In-Universe|is referenced]]:
{{quote| '''Brock:''' If we're lucky, those five minutes will last 10 episodes!}}
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Lawrence III, villain of ''[[Pokémon:
** Make that three times; he returns near the end of {{spoiler|the Legendary Dogs arc}}.
* [[Back From the Dead]]: {{spoiler|Mitsumi only awakens as the Ghost Guardian after her death. This means that she starts out with only three more uses of her revival ability.}}
Line 45:
** Which comes [[Chekhov's Boomerang|right back around to help them again]] during the trial, when the now male Ash provides for a contradiction to poke a hole in the witness's testimony.
* [[The Chessmaster]]: {{spoiler|Professor Oak, during the Legendary Dogs arc.}}
* [[Children Are Innocent]]: [[Playing
* [[Christmas Episode]]: The most recent chapter as of April 2010. Only problem is, it was put up for Christmas ''2007''.
* [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: Chapter 130 implies that Butch and Cassidy may not be loyal to Guardia, either.
Line 61:
* [[Crossover]]: Chapter 75 takes place in [[Digimon|the Digital World]] and heavily parodies the Pokemon-Digimon [[Fandom Rivalry]].
** The crossovers continue for awhile afterwards. The end of Chapter 75 has them seemingly ending up in the world of ''[[Monster Rancher]]'', and Chapter 76 is a "Strongest [[Shonen]] Tournament" in which Kai fights [[Ranma One Half|Ranma Saotome]], [[Yu Yu Hakusho|Yusuke Urameshi]], and [[Dragonball Z|Son Goku]] in succession, and through a series of bizarre events, wins all three bouts without doing anything. Chapter 77 then has them in swordfights with the cast of ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'', with [[The Stinger]] sending them [[Inuyasha|through the well]].
*** Chapter 78 starts off in what appears to be a normal world, but they still haven't fixed the Dimensional Transporter so they can't be home just yet. It soon appears that the theme of the chapter is [[Magical Girl]] anime...but like Chapter 76, there's [[Cardcaptor Sakura
*** Chapter 79...Nope, [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|still not home.]] And much like the early chapters of that manga (the ones that became "Season 0", they play a game [[Screw the Rules I Have Plot|that makes no sense.]] {{spoiler|The Pharaoh}} wins, and they are sent to a "super-cute" world for the next chapter, and the three anime mentioned in the post-chapter A/N are [[Di Gi Charat]], [[Excel Saga (
*** And even once they get their ticket home at the end of Chapter 81...they end up in [[Tenchi Muyo!|another anime.]] After a quick break to end up on the other side of the fourth wall, they get sent to one more dimension in Chapter 84...which also happens to be the second movie. [[Shaman King|It's]] [[Naruto|another]] [[One Piece|triple.]]
** Chapter 125 also brings in the characters from a ''different'' Pokemon manga...namely the [[Shoujo]] manga ''Magical Pokemon Journey (PiPiPi)''.
*** They, and the characters from the second-generation games, return in chapter 129. {{spoiler|They were looking for Entei, and Yoshi and Dani were looking for Raikou...which naturally means Eusine would be there, too, looking for Suicune.}}
Line 71:
** [[Bad Powers, Bad People|Toxic]] [[Subverted Trope|Is Not Evil]]: Ritchie.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: [[Subverted]]; the Ghost Guardian has the power to revive the dead, but it uses so much energy that [[Dangerous Forbidden Technique|she can only use it four times before she becomes too weak to live.]]
* [[A Day in
* [[Dead Fic]]: Hasn't updated since 2007. ''After 173 Chapters''.
* [[Deceptive Disciple]]: Gunpei
Line 102:
** 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.
** [[Playing
** [[Making a Splash]]: Misty and Hikaru
** [[Shock and Awe]]: {{spoiler|Pikachu}} and Electra
Line 164:
* [[Intimate Healing]]: {{spoiler|Gary to Mitsumi.}}
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: {{spoiler|Ritchie}}, when he realizes that Misty still loves Ash.
* [[Jerk
* [[Katanas Are Just Better]]: [[Meaningful Name|Not surprisingly]], this is Katana's weapon.
* [[Knife Nut]]: {{spoiler|Pikachu}}'s katars.
Line 179:
** [[Foe Yay]]: [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1771556/150/Guardians_of_Pokemon Misty and Green].
* [[Literal Split Personality]]: {{spoiler|Gary}}, after {{spoiler|Mitsumi leaves}}. "Dark {{spoiler|Gary}}" turns out to really be {{spoiler|a Sableye}}.
* [[Living
* [[Loveable Rogue]]: Green
* [[Love At First Sight]]: {{spoiler|Mitsumi and Gary, though we don't find this out right away due to their ''first'' chronological meeting being shown in a flashback in Chapter 138.}}
** {{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
* [[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
* [[Aliens Made Them Do It|Luvdisc Made Them Do It]]: Chapter 124
* [[Magic Wand]]: Todd and Mitsumi get these.
Line 217:
** Also {{spoiler|Pikachu's "Thunderstone Evolution"}} technique temporarily gives her a mature {{spoiler|"Raichu"}} form...but when it's used up, she reverts to a {{spoiler|"Pichu"}} form that's even younger-looking than ''[[Token Mini-Moe|Chibi]]''.
* [[One-Book Author|One Fic Author]]: Mr. Panda.
* [[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
* [[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}}.
Line 238:
* [[Psycho Rangers]]: The Evil Guardians
* [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]]: Hikaru, Oki, and Electra
* [[Reformed but Rejected]]: When Jessie and James awaken as Guardians, ''most'' of the other Guardians accept them immediately...but Misty is initially ''highly'' suspicious. And is mostly yelled at for it. (To be fair, everything she suspected Jessie and James would try to do, Meowth actually ''wanted'' to do. ''He'' never did a [[Heel Face Turn]]. Well, later he stopped being evil and just went along with them, because [[Nakama|they're a team, and they stick together.]] Then he got [[Put
* [[Relationship Upgrade]]: The [[Festival Episode]] brings plenty of the typical romantic legends...but surprisingly, the upgrade takes place elsewhere. {{spoiler|Namely, Mitsumi gets sick, and Gary is the only one that notices that she's fallen behind. He takes care of her...which eventually leads to taking ''[[Intimate Healing|care]]'' of her and then quickly (with the help of the lights suddenly going out) to ''really taking care of her''.}} And yet...
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Gary:''' About what happened...none of it leaves this Pokemon Center.}}<br />
Line 251:
* [[The Scrappy]]: Dash is treated like one in-universe, which Mr. Panda says is to make him loved by the fans. For the more conventional scrappy, we have one of the show's scrappies, Ritchie.
* [[Sdrawkcab Name]]: [[Lupin III|Nipul]], in the anime crossover arc.
** [[Spell My Name
* [[Sentai]]: Probably the best description of what the Guardians are.
** 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
* [[Shout-Out]]: Chapter 91 turns into a [[Looney Tunes|Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner]] cartoon.
** 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.]]"
** Chapter 141 is called "[[Snakes
** Chapter 148 parodies the ''[[Ace Attorney]]'' series.
** In addition to being one of the movies, Chapter 149 takes a stab at ''[[The Amazing Race]]''. Sort of.
*** As well as ''[[Friends]]''...and ''[[The Simple Life]]''...and ''[[The Dating Game]]'' ({{spoiler|Jessie and James}} naturally win this one)...and ''[[The Apprentice]]''...and ''[[Survivor]]''...and okay, pretty much every [[Reality Show]] out there. (Not sure what a ''[[Friends]]'' parody was doing in there, though.
*** It also ends with Green getting her item...[[
* [[Showing Off the New Body]]: Variation; it's not another person's body being flaunted, but [[Older Alter Ego|a more mature version of her own.]]
* [[Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids]]: {{spoiler|Green}} apparently wanted to be a superhero as a kid, before being [[Break the Cutie|broken]] and turned into the [[Grumpy Bear|grumpy]] [[Jerkass]] we're all used to. Well, this is heavily implied, anyway.
Line 285:
* [[Tragic Villain]]: Any member of the Evil Guardians that wants to repent but is afraid to go against Guardia probably counts, but {{spoiler|Bigu}} is a particularly notable example due to spending much of the second half of the story [[The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything|not committing any evil acts]] and hoping that Guardia won't notice that {{spoiler|she's forsaken her Evil Guardian duties in order to live a quiet life in Pallet Town with Mrs. Ketchum. Essentially, she's a more prolonged version of Molly from the third movie.}} Also Neriko, after she falls in love with Dash.
** Unfortunately for {{spoiler|Bigu}}, Guardia is the ''Psychic'' Evil Guardian--naturally he knows the truth.
* [[Trapped in TV Land|Trapped In Video Game Land]]: The end of chapter 106 has the Guardians sucked into a video game world as a result of Butch and Cassidy's machine. In order, we see Dash and Brock in a [[Platformer]] (specifically, a [[Super Mario Bros. (
* [[Truman Show Plot]]: Chapter 149, an ''[[Amazing Race]]'' parody.
* [[Try Not to Die]]: Chapter 129:
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
