== Heroes ==
=== [[Super Mario Bros.|Mario]] ===
* [[Badass]]
** [[Badass Mustache]]:Even more so, given his fighting skill in the series.
Line 10:
* [[Jack of All Stats]]
* [[Kamehame Hadoken]]: His charged fireballs tend to use the stance.
* [[Playing Withwith Fire]]
** [[Fireballs]]
* [[Power Glows]]: Usually when he's picked up a Cape Feather or Fire Flower. Notably during episodes 2 and 6 is when both are grabbed.
* [[The Voiceless]]/[[The Unintelligible]]: Carried this trait over from the [[Mario and Luigi (Video Game)|Mario & Luigi]] series.
 
=== [[Super Mario Bros.|Luigi]] ===
* [[Bash Brothers]]: With Mario.
* [[Badass Mustache]]: Well, not quite as badass as Mario, but still quite a bit.
Line 27:
* [[Fastball Special]]
* [[Foreshadowing]]: After being told that in the pipe maze that they could be lost forever, the professor tells him that he was just kidding, but was being serious about the pipe maze being confusing. Then, he, Yoshi, and Shadow come across a pipe that leads into a world where its really possible to end up being lost forever.
* [[Grievous Harm Withwith a Body]]: He often gets power-ups that incorporate his body, like the Blue Shell and the Tanuki Suit. He also uses his Luigi Missile.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Gets an absolutely ''magnificent'' one in Episode 6.
* [[The Voiceless]]/[[The Unintelligible]]: Just like his brother,he has this trait from the [[Mario and Luigi (Video Game)|Mario & Luigi]] games.
 
=== [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] ===
Line 41:
* [[Hour of Power]]: ''Well.....[[Invincibility Power-Up|That little experience]] was pretty [[Oh Crap|short lived]]....."
* [[Hurricane Kick]]: One of his many moves.
* [[Laughing Mad]]: For a short while in Episode 7. Doubles as a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Videoand Game)Knuckles|Sonic the Hedgehog 3]], as the sprites used were seemingly based on the laughing sprites of Knuckles the Echidna as he appeared in the aforementioned game.
* [[Super Mode]]: The usual Super Sonic fair, now if he gets a hold of a Fire Flower however...
* [[Take That]]: When he was 8-Bit Sonic (read: almost Classic Sonic), he made this remark.
Line 60:
* [[Informed Ability]] / [[Chekhov's Gun]]: Shadow mentions in Episode 5 that he can sense Chaos Emerald energy from long distances when explaining his suspicions about the "emerald" lying in front of him. This might act as an explaination as to how he'll find at least one chaos emerald while Mario and the others try to rescue Peach without him.
** {{spoiler|Confirmed in the Episode 9 trailer, as Shadow explicitly stated that he was going to focus himself to sense the location of the sixth emerald in the desert before being ambushed by Mecha Sonic}}.
* [[Jerkass]]: His personality is pretty much a shout out alone to [[DragonballDragon Ball]] because of [[DragonballDragon Ball|Vegeta]]. They're even both [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Type V]] [[Anti-Hero|Anti-Heroes]].
** [[Freudian Excuse]]: However, it wasn't his natural personality as much as him adopting it due to the trauma of his friends, Rouge and Omega, being slaughtered by Mecha Sonic.
* [[Kamehame Hadoken]]
Line 68:
 
 
=== [[Yoshis Island (Video Game)|Yoshi]] ===
* [[Art Evolution]]: He uses ''[[Yoshis Island (Video Game)|Yoshis Island]]'' sprites until episode 5. From episode 6 on he has ''Yoshi's Island DS'' sprites, while all other Yoshis keep the same.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: He pulls one of these in Episode 8 alongside Luigi, and earlier in episode 5, knocking away Thunderfoot before he can strike Mario.
* [[Catch and Return]]: True to form, he can spit projectiles and whatever he can stuff into his mouth back to the sender.
Line 77:
* [[The Unintelligible]]: He's a dinosaur. [[Captain Obvious|Of course he can't speak.]]
 
=== [[LuigisLuigi's Mansion (Video Game)|Professor E Gadd]] ===
* [[Absent-Minded Professor]]
* [[Mr. Exposition]]: Boy, does he have a lot to speak about...
Line 88:
{{quote| '''Mecha Sonic''': "Monster? I'm not a monster. I'M A GOD."}}
** Which, in context, doubles as a shout out to one of Broly's lines from the first movie he appeared in.
* [[AI Is a Crapshoot]]: When [[Sonic the Hedgehog CD (Video Game)|Metal Sonic]] [[Fusion Dance|merged with]] 3 other Sonic robots ([[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Video Game)|Silver Sonic]], [[Sonic Adventure (Video Game)|Silver Sonic II]], and [[Archie Comics Sonic the Hedgehog|Archie's Mecha Sonic]]), Dr. Eggman discovered him in his new form. When the doctor threatened to deactivate him, [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|the newly formed Turbo Mecha Sonic decided to]] [[Colony Drop]] the Death Egg onto Mobius' surface, [[Apocalypse How|and eventually take the entire population of Mobius out with it]].
* [[Apocalypse How]]: Managed to cause a Class-5 Apocalyptic scenario on Mobius by the time he managed to chaos control to Mario's dimension.
* [[Arm Cannon]]: Mecha Sonic's arm contains one of these. He usually uses it as a machine gun (with a [[Dramatic Gun Cock|shotgun-racking sound effect.]]), but he can also fire missiles out of it (two at once, even!). He doesn't use it very often though, considering that most of his opponents are [[High-Speed Missile Dodge|fast enough/skilled enough]] [[Dodge the Bullet|to avoid gunfire.]]
Line 97:
* [[Evil Knockoff]]
* [[Expy]]: According to [[Word of God]], he is supposed to be this series equivalent of Cell.
* [[Fusion Dance]]: (Turbo) Mecha Sonic is the result of [[Sonic the Hedgehog CD (Video Game)|Metal Sonic]] merging with [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Video Game)|Silver Sonic]], [[Sonic Adventure (Video Game)|Silver Sonic II]], and [[Archie Comics Sonic the Hedgehog|Archie Comics' Mecha Sonic]].
* [[Implacable Man]]: He's hunted those Chaos Emeralds the entire time, and has taken quite a beating, but he can still kick your ass no worse than before. In fact, he ''escalates'' it every time he's fought.
* [[Killer Robot]]
Line 107:
* [[Shout-Out]]: He once used [[Street Fighter|Akuma's "Shun Goku Satsu"]] in Semi-[[Super Mode]]. Against an Axem Ranger. [[No Kill Like Overkill|That poor villain]]...
** What's worse: That wasn't even his entire attack: Shortly afterwards, he then punched Red to the Ground, punched/grabbed Red's back from below, and then kicked him into the air before vaporizing him with a beam in a manner similer to how Goku broke Nappa's back and how Vegeta killed Nappa respectively.
* [[Some Kind of Force Field]]: Activated what ''appeared'' to be a [[Sonic 3 and Knuckles (Video Game)|Lightning Shield]] to block the Chaos Emerald-powered [[Wave Motion Gun|Breaker Beam]] the Axems used on him. He wasn't even the target at the time.
* [[Super Mode]]: While his standard form can technically qualify, due to it actually being a [[Fusion Dance]]-style transformation from Metal Sonic into this form, known officially as "Turbo Mecha Sonic", he has a Semi-[[Super Mode]] with 4 Chaos Emeralds, which resembles the [[Sonic 3 and Knuckles (Video Game)|original Mecha Sonic's]] [[Super Mode]], and if Alvin had not cancelled the series, he would have gotten an even stronger form with all 7 Chaos Emeralds that would have either gone by the names "Metallix" or "Master Mecha Sonic".
* [[Teleport Spam]]: While fighting the Axem Rangers in Semi-[[Super Mode]], he teleported at a rapid pace as he was attacking one of them.
 
=== Bowser ===
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Mario's, naturally.
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: [[Camera Abuse|Done very literally with his defeat in the second episode]]: After two unknown entities (Sonic and Shadow) knock away Kamek while he was holding Peach hostage, Mario capitalizes on the distraction and throws him off the racetrack by the tail. Bowser is then seen being hurled away and (in a scene taken directly from the ending of ''[[Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga (Video Game)|Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga]]'') crashes into the "screen" hard enough to crack it before slipping down as if hitting glass.
* [[Breath Weapon]] (combined with [[Kamehame Hadouken]])
* [[Chrome Champion]]: Metal Bowser, in episode 2. Mario has a difficult time defeating him. [[Deus Ex Machina|It takes the timely arrival of Sonic and Shadow's capsule for Mario to even stand much of a chance in the fight.]]
Line 148:
* [[Wolverine Claws]]: Bears these, and is very apt with them.
 
=== [[Paper Mario (Video Gamefranchise)|The Koopa Bros]] ===
* [[Badass]]: Subverted due to the chaos emeralds power, but even without it, were way more of a threat then they were in the games.
* [[Combination Attack]]: Just like in Paper Mario, they can stack up and spin. This attack is amplified with the Chaos Emerald in hand.
Line 161:
* [[Totally Radical]]: Like in the games, they speak like they're stuck in the 90's.
 
=== [[Super Mario RPG (Video Game)|The Axem Rangers X]] ===
* [[An Axe to Grind]]: Combined with [[Blade Onon a Stick]].
* [[Braggart Boss]]: Axem Red boasts about the power of his secret weapon [[Too Dumb to Live|to a 4-emeralds buffed Metal Sonic]]. It doesn't end well.
* [[Combination Attack]]: Axem Green and Black's special skill, which can obliterate stone.
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Axem Yellow can form his hands together to make a hammer. It can split mountains, too!
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Axem Red was quite angered at Mecha Sonic due to his murdering his fellow members in such brutal methods.
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Spinning]]: Axem Green and Black's special again. Also, all rangers appear to be able to pull off a tornado spin attack.
* [[Five-Bad Band]]
** [[The Big Bad]]: Red
Line 180:
** Alvin Earthworm confirmed that they will play a major role in season 2. [[Orphaned Series|Though given the fact of the current status of the series...]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]: AX 'EM. Duh.
* [[Off Withwith His Head]]: The fate of Green. If that wasn't enough, Mecha Sonic even ups it by actually crushing Green's decapitated head with his bare hands.
* [[Shout-Out]]: "Hey Red, [[Memetic Mutation|what does]] [[Readings Are Off the Scale|the scouter say about his power level?]]"
** Also, the Axem Rangers' "upgraded bodies" are that of Zero's regular form (Zero Series), Zero's Defense Form (Zero Series), A customized of the Zero model depicting Black Zero, GutsMan.EXE, and Roll.EXE for Axems Red, Green, Black, Yellow, and Pink.
