Line 923:
{{spoiler|We later find out why the Allspark chose her: Sari is really a Cybertronian protoform turned half-human, half-robot after Issac accidentally input his DNA into said protoform. Naturally, she doesn't take this well at first. Sari then gets a system upgrade that [[Plot-Relevant Age-Up|ages her up to a sixteen-year-old to make her more powerful]]. She continuously uses her skills in battle and later helps out during the final battle.}}
 
* [[Action Girl]]: Season 3 gives her quite the fighting prowess with a plenty of tools to use on Decepticreep scum. Downplayed after Ratchet shuts almost all of her weapon systems down - she's still quite good, especially with her palm blasters, but direct fights are almost a complete no-no. Thankfully she's savvy enough to kinda make up for it.
* [[Action Girl]]
* [[Aesop Amnesia]] - It took quite a few lessons before she scaled back her abuse of the Key.
* [[Alliterative Name]]
* {{spoiler|[[Badass Abnormal]]}}
* [[Badass Adorable]]: For the first 2 seasons, definitely more on the Adorable side. Had the show not been cancelled, she would've grown into an outright Badass by a Season 5, which ''was'' thrown around by Marty Isenberg.
* [[Badass Adorable]]
* {{spoiler|[[Batman Can Breathe in Space]]: Post-upgrade, switching to her robot alt-mode is sufficient to protect her from the vacuum of space. Notable because Blackarachnia, also a techno-organic, threw a fit about her own organic parts not being able to survive underwater long enough to reach the Autobots' sunken spaceship. It's possible Sari is a far more perfect techno-organic Transformer than Blackarachnia, who essentially absorbed some spider tissue - Sari's protoform was likely built to accept organic material from the start.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Blade Below the Shoulder]] - Her upgrade includes a pair of pop-out tonfa blades that can do some serious damage, as poor Bumblebee found out the hard way. Ratchet apparently had to shut most of her weapons down after she nearly overloaded.}}
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: {{spoiler|Until her upgrade, when she gets Autobot-style eyes.}}
* [[Dark-Skinned Redhead]]: Indian skin tone, metallic red hair. {{spoiler|Justified because she's a Transformer}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Drop the Hammer]] - The Almanac II even calls it a [[Hyperspace Mallet]]! Also shut down per the above.}}
* [[Every Girl Is Cuter With Hair Decs]]
Line 941:
* [[Has Two Mommies]] - Or rather she eventually has ''five'' robot daddies, adopted. {{spoiler|[[Unusual Euphemism|Primus]] only knows how many actual daddies she has. Isaac Sumdac plus however many it takes to make a protoform.}}
* [[Jet Pack]]: That forms out of a scooter.
* [[Jumped At the Call]]: In season 1, and her first reaction to her new gizmos in season 3 was a non-verbal "Awesome!" {{spoiler|until she stabs Bumblebee while also being dangerously close to overloading.}}
* [[Jumped At the Call]]
* [[Kid Appeal Character]]
* [[Killer Rabbit]] - Ask Mixmaster and Scrapper.
Line 950:
* [[Mundane Utility]] - There is virtually no situation in which she wouldn't use the Allspark key to make things easier.
* {{spoiler|[[Puberty Superpower]] - Played with: She unlocks an entire arsenal of weapons but they end up being disabled due to her nearly overloading.}}
* [[Out of Focus]]: Like with most humans in season 3. A potential season 4 would ''still'' have had her out of focus (going with Bulkhead to learn more about Cybertron) but a season 5 (which was the planned endpoint for the show) would've brought her back in an outright [[Badass]] status.
* [[Raised by Robots]]
* [[Redheaded Hero]]
* {{spoiler|[[Robot Girl]] - Before the upgrade, she could eat, sleep, cry and catch colds, but just happened to have metal under her skin and hidden palm blasters. Post-upgrade, she's still at least partly human, but has a lot more tricks up her Transformer sleeves.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Robotic Reveal]] - In the finale of Season 2. Season 3 then reveals she's a Transformer herself.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Sixth Ranger]]}} - At least, she was by the time of the finale. She grew into the role over the course of Season 3.
* [[Socially Awkward Hero]] - Has a much better time getting along with giant robots than kids her age. {{spoiler|Turns out she gets along with Transformers because she's a Transformer herself.}}
* [[Team Pet]] - {{spoiler|Until her upgrade, anyway.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Technopath]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Tinman Typist]] - [[Ghost in the Shell]]-style}}
* {{spoiler|[[Took a Level in Badass]] - Came free with her system upgrade. Subverted as she nearly overloads from the AllSpark energy, and, after stabbing Bumblebee, Ratchet has to EMP her and then shut down all her weapons besides the blasters.}}
* [[Twofer Token Minority]]: Female, Indian, {{spoiler|Transformer}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Uncanny Valley]]: Wealthy, relatively good looking, no major mental defects, heiress of a company that makes robots and yet other children are inexplicably hateful towards her. Somehow, they instinctively know there's something a little ''off'' about her.}}
