=== Tropes featured in ''The Aura Chronicles'': ===
{{tropelist}}
* [[A God Am I]]: {{spoiler|Deoxys}} gets it into its head that it will be able to kill Dialga and Palkia once it's done with the protagonist.
* [[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence]]: Lucario, who becomes a ghost and continues to advise Hunter throughout the series.
* [[Attack! Attack! Attack!]]: The last part has Deoxys's clones keep coming at the others until Hunter beats all the rest with an exploded Aura Sphere.
* [[Air Jousting]]: Happens several times throughout the series.
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: In ''From Learner To Master'', Riolu alternates between being called "it" and "he". All of Hunter's other Pokemon are also referred to as "it".
* [[Big Friendly Dog|Big Friendly Pokemon]]: Hunter gets licked by most of his Pokemon more than a few times throughout the series, though in a partial subversion, all of them are smart.
* [[Babies Ever After]]: Taren and Mara have a baby in the end of ''A Student Lost'', and {{spoiler|Bianca}} is pregnant in the epilogue of ''A New Beginning''.
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: Hunter in the last book.
* [[Battle Aura]]: Used twice by Hunter to block attacks.
* [[Badass Abnormal]]: Hunter, aside from the powers, is a regular kid.
* [[Battle in Thethe Rain]]: The battle between Deoxys and Hunter is this, complete with thunder and lightning. It apparently clears up after it's done.
* [[Beam Spam]]: Hunter is able to fire Aura Spheres like a machine gun, and later is able to condense them into beams.
* [[Big No]]: Happens quite a few times.
* [[Combat Tentacles]]: Deoxys fights with these, considering they're its ''limbs''.
* [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]: The final fight between Hunter and Deoxys, in which they throw each other around Alto Mare, smashing more than once through the side of a building.
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: Butch and Cassidy make a cameo, trying to rob Hunter of his (currently non-existent) Pokemon. He blasts them out of the way after stating [[Bond One -Liner|"I don't have time for this."]]
* [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: The last part of ''A Student Lost'', which has Taren and Hunter start referring to each other as "Dad" and "son" respectively. Taren also becomes a father. There's also a section of ''Teacher of the Aura'' where Hunter and Lucario both help each other out when fighting an Ariados. Hunter heals Lucario after he's poisoned, and Lucario helps Hunter after he's injured by the Ariados.
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: The ending fight in ''Journey to Gracidea'', where Hunter's Pokemon are smacked down by a possessed Aggron with any hits they score not effecting it much.
* [[Dead Guy, Junior]]: Taren's son, which they name Lucar to remember Lucario by.
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Averted ''hard'' in the main plot. Basically, if you hurt Hunter or his friends, you will die. The Aggron from ''Journey to Gracidea'' and Deoxys are only two instances.
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Done for dramatic purposes or because of [[They Just Didn't Care|lack of caring]], such as Lucario being affected by Poison-type moves (Steel-types are resistant to poison) and a kid's pet Gastly being able to lick the kid silly with no negative effects. The first is actually remarked on by a reviewer. Hunter's Umbreon is also able to use ''Flash Cannon'', which it can't learn in the games.
Line 39 ⟶ 40:
* [[I Can Still Fight]]: Scyther does this in the last battle, managing to throw an X-Scissor at Deoxys. The attack is easily blocked and Scyther then gets a building dropped on it.
* [[I Got Better]]: Hunter.
* [[No, I Am Behind You]]: Umbreon does this with its Faint Attack.
* [[Ki Attacks]]: Aura being used as a multipurpose weapon.
* [[Energy Ball]]: Aura Spheres that all the Lucarios (and Hunter) are able to shoot.
Line 47 ⟶ 48:
* [[Flash Step]]: Umbreon's Faint Attack is depicted as this.
* [[The Mentor]]: Lucario, and later, Hunter to Taren.
* [[The Obi -Wan]]: Again, Lucario and Hunter.
* [[Taking the Bullet]]: {{spoiler|Lucario}}.
* [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]]: Hunter faces Deoxys alone, knocking out Taren to keep him from helping.
Line 55 ⟶ 56:
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: Any Pokemon that can use Quick Attack. Hunter can also do this.
* [[Love Triangle]]: Hunter is in love with both Bianca and Maylene. He and Maylene kiss in the end of ''A New Beginning'' before she goes back to Veilstone, while Hunter ends up marrying Bianca. The author says that he didn't originally intend for there to be one.
* [[Pokémon -Speak]]: Justified in that it's ''Pokemon''. Subverted only in the case of Pokemon that can communicate telepathically, though Riley and Maylene's Lucarios can't do it.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Hunter's parents died in a car crash before the series started.
* [[Percussive Prevention]]: Before Hunter's final battle with Deoxys, he knocks out Taren to keep him from helping.
Line 61 ⟶ 62:
* [[Megaton Punch]]: With Aura augmenting his strength, Hunter is able to smash people through ''buildings and solid rock.''.
* [[Mentor Occupational Hazard]]: The author basically reveals that Lucario's going to die in the ''third chapter'' of ''Teacher of the Aura''.
* [[Mutual Kill]]: Hunter's [[Taking You Withwith Me]] move in the final battle kills both Deoxys and him.
* [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown]]: In ''Aura and Inner Fire'', Hunter's Typhlosion to Ash's Buizel. Hunter somewhat justifies it because the Buizel ''he'' owned died in ''A Student's Trials''.
* [[Second -Hour Superpower]]: ''A New Beginning'' has Hunter coming up with more ways to use his powers after much pestering from Lucario.
* [[Not Allowed to Grow Up]]: Averted. Hunter grows up and marries Bianca, and his Buizel dies due to it being old (it was originally his mother's.)
* [[Second Hour Superpower]]: ''A New Beginning'' has Hunter coming up with more ways to use his powers after much pestering from Lucario.
* [[Sword Sparks]]: Done without swords, normally whenever two fighters come together at high speed.
* [[Stupid Sacrifice]]: Taren [[What the Hell, Hero?|calls Hunter out on this]] after he [[Only Mostly Dead|"dies"]], saying that they could have stopped Deoxys as a team.
* [[Shout -Out]]: "This scene was inspired by" is a [[Catch Phrase]] of the author's notes.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: {{spoiler|Lucario's death}} in the first book, {{spoiler|the reaction to Hunter's in the last}}.
* [[Taking You Withwith Me]]: Hunter to Deoxys.
* [[Out of the Inferno]]: Deoxys flies out of explosions more than once during the finale.
* [[Only Mostly Dead]]: Averted with Lucario in the end of the first story, though he does come back as a ghost in every story. {{spoiler|Hunter is given his life back by Arceus after pulling a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to kill Deoxys.}} Taren also does this in the end of ''A Student Lost'', though he's only brought back to life by the Sinnoh lake trio.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Go after Hunter's adopted family. I dare you.
* [[Please Wake Up]]: Hunter to Taren in ''A Student Lost'', then flipped in ''A New Beginning''.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Nobody calls him out on it, but Hunter ordering his Typhlosion to beat Buizel to a pulp could count. Taren also calls him out after he {{spoiler|dies}}, all the while screaming that they could have taken Deoxys together.
