* [[Combining Mecha]]: Valguard (Mecha + Battleship) and Valzacard (Mecha + Battleship + another Mecha and another Battleship). Also, the Getter, Golion, GaoGaiGar and 80% of the GGG robots

* [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Defrosting Ice Prince]]: Prince of Darkness Akito through gameplay. The first time you use Double Gekkigan Flare he mutters something. The second time he starts saying stuff hesitantly. The third time he returns to full-on '''hotblooded shouting'''.

* [[Demoted to Extra]]: [[Go Lion|Emperor Dai Bazaal]] barely shows up until it's time to fight him at the end of his show's plot, despite being the [[Big Bad]] and a regular on his series. To add further injury, his death isn't even the point of the chapter, as [[GaoGaiGar|Palparepa]] and [[Original Generation|Applicant]] show up after he dies and take the spotlight. Can be [[Justified]] in that Dai Bazaal's always been mainly [[Orcus on His Throne]] and his son [[The Dragon|Sincline]] the more active villain, but if you don't know about his series, he feels like a [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere|Fat Space Emperor From Nowhere]].

* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Mu La Flaga and the Astray cast appear early in the game, despite the fact the SEED plot doesn't start until the second half. Also, the Radam Tree sequence features Yumi, David and Natasha getting swallowed, which is never seen in the first ''[[Tekkaman Blade]]'' (and just mentioned in II)

* [[Enemy Mine]], [[Guest Star Party Member]] : At one point, you end up controlling Tekkaman Evil who works in tandem with Blade to remove the Zonders, just so the Radam trees can grow.

* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: {{spoiler|EI-13 nearly gets retconned from existence thanks to Akane Ardygun being a huge fan of Uppo-Kun. However, Sousuke shows up in his Bonta-Kun outfit and causes pandemonium, resulting the creation of EI-13.}}

* [[No Export for You]]: As is rather typical for this franchise. It's a little more surprising here in that every series in the game was licensed for distribution at the time of release, and a couple series (''Golion'', ''Orgun'' and ''possibly Tekkaman Blade'') seem included more to appeal to Americans than any fan demand in Japan (which is particularly non-existent for ''Golion''); idle speculation fomented the idea that this was done to increase overseas appeal, but the game still never crossed the ocean officially.

* [[Obviously Evil]]: This is [[Original Generation|Bless and Kazuma's]] opinion of [[Go Lion|Honeruba]] when they first meet her. So much so that they pretty much unilaterally decide to commit Earth to war with the Galra on the spot because of it.

* [[Original Generation]]: The Ardygun Family and the Database. The Ardyguns are pretty notable for being some of the most popular OG characters the franchise has produced in the entire ''decade''; fans in Japan and abroad keep asking if they'll be included in OG3 or something similar.

* [[Paper Fan of Doom]]: Kaname's paper fan is an actual [[Power-Up]] in the game; it gives a 30% boost to a mech's critical-hit rate.

* [[Recurring Extra]]: Kaname's class takes good advantage of the expansion this crossover gives with lot of field trips, usually arriving shortly before a battle breaks out there.

* [[Redemption Equals Death]]: Surprisingly, they did it to {{spoiler|[[Tekkaman Blade|Tekkaman Evil]]. Rather than dying after waking up from the Radam control, he says his thanks by turning into Tekkaman Evil and [[You Shall Not Pass|blocks off a horde of Radam beasts alone]], [[Bolivian Army Ending|allowing Blade to confront Omega at cost of his life.]]}}

* [[Rocket Punch]]: (Wouldn't be [[Super Robot Wars]] without it!) [[GaoGaiGar|Broken Magnum/Phantom]], [[Martian Successor Nadesico|Wire Fist]], [[Go Lion|Hundred Ton Punch]], [[Mazinkaiser|Turbo Smasher/ScrewPressure Punch]] (and the original, of course).
