Retired Badass: Professor Oak is an ex-champion, and was apparently world-renowned; the reason that his lab has so little in the way of defenses is that his Pokémon live there. | |

Heroic RRoD | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_1440584e | comment |
Heroic RRoD: Pikachu suffers such extreme injuries in the Game Corner that he has to be given to Lt. Surge for rehab. The small Gyarados that Ash accidentally captures when it drags him away from the wreck of the St. Anne; It's so small that it can't move its own weight after the surge of evolution energy has run out, its brainwaves are unstable from the forced evolution and even if it survives it will never grow to full size and might not even be able to use moves anymore. Ash himself at the same time; He's got several ribs broken and is badly battered from his encounters with Proton and being dragged around by Gyarados, he's severely sunburned and dehydrated from the exposure, and he would have died if it wasn't for Drake's Salamence finding him. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: In the same vein as Traveler, the story is way darker than the anime or games could hope to be, as fights are more visceral and detailed with realistic injuries. While the story still has plenty of lighthearted moments and is still recognizable Pokémon, it's tone is more in line with the Adventure manga. | |

The Heavy | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_1badfbbb | comment |
The Heavy: Of Team Rocket so far, Proton has had by far the greatest amount of interaction with Ash. note Beaten in Mount Moon just barely, brutalizing Pikachu and nearly killing Ash in Celadon, a Steelix intended for him providing the majority of the muscle for the grunts accosting May, and heading up the attack on the St. Anne that had Ash as its primary target. | |

| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_2848e7d2 | comment |
Oblivious to Love: Ash and Silver don't pick up on the many, many obvious hints that the Cerulean City Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny are a couple, as they blatantly flirt in front of them and neither seems to catch on to what's happening. Espeon picks up on it rather easily and even smirks at Nurse Joy's embarrassment with how forward Jenny is being. | |

No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_35022c20 | comment |
No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup: Averted by Team Rocket with Project: Origin. 1 From the descriptions given, probably Mewtwo Subject One was a trial that never left it's tank, but provided the background of the process used to create them. Subject Two fell short of the required goals for the project, and was scrapped. Three to Five all met the required specification, though Three (Destroyed by Ash in Celadon) was least developed, and hence less guarded. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Happens whenever Gym Leaders and comparable trainers go all out. Cynthia vs 20-odd Rockets? Garchomp solos. Cynthia vs Rocket Admin? Garchomp solos. Sabrina and Erika vs three Rocket Admins? Sabrina and Erika stomp. Team Rocket Grunts exist basically to receive these. All the Rocket Grunts accomplished with their own Pokémon when trying to keep Ash from saving May was letting Sobek's Moxie kick in. Paul's team apparently beat Gary's 2/3 times this way, though Gary mutters that the last one was only because of a last minute evolution on Paul's part. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Ash himself is the most immediately obvious; save when fighting against trainers way out of his reach, such as Team Rocket administrators, he very rarely loses a match - it takes until just before Celadon City for him to lose an on-screen match with a peer (Paul), and he doesn't lose a Gym battle until Koga throws a curve-ball at him. Pikachu learns Volt Tackle (his most powerful attack in the anime) as early as the Kanto Region rather than during the Hoenn Region. Pokémon can learn more than just four moves and combine moves to make even stronger techniques. Professor Oak was just a researcher in the anime and games. Here, he's the former champion of Kanto. Paul's Chimchar is stated and shown to be a battle prodigy, even doing a decent job against one of Paul's Nidoking in a training match. A major step up from the anime, where he'd freeze up when things were against the wall for him. More subtly, Team Cipher. In canon, they were certainly quite powerful, arguably more so than any other villainous team save maybe Plasma due to having Legendary Pokémon at their disposal. Here they managed to sustain a world war against basically every other nation combined, savaging an entire generation of Trainers and thrashing Fiore and Almia so badly that they closed their borders to all Pokemon Trainers. Wes. See Cipher's entry on this list? Wes's defection broke them and decided the war. When he's actually seen fighting (in a recording) he proceeds to give Lance a hard time. Team Rocket is also much more of a threat this time, as their actions are shown to threaten countless innocent lives and they have the money and resources to capture legendary Pokémon. | |

Chapter 16: Team Rocket attack the St. Anne. Proton and Petrel nearly kill the main characters again, and inform them that the operation was planned specifically to get revenge on them. Then, Team Rocket's new experimental device activates and evolves every Magikarp in the area to Gyarados, killing thousands of people on the lifeboats. Charizard is knocked out and Ash only survives due to getting caught on a Gyarados fleeing in pain. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: Paul is nowhere close to as arrogant as he was in the anime, and has a more pleasant friendly rivalry with Ash. He even helps out against Team Rocket. Also, unlike his anime counterpart, he doesn't abuse his Pokémon or get rid of them when he feels they aren't worth his time anymore. Gary, in the same vein as Paul, is also much more polite and respectful of Ash and even helps in dealing with Team Rocket. | |

Alternate Universe | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_8430699a | comment |
Alternate Universe: There are a number of significant divergences in the setting compared to the anime; even leaving aside Cipher, Pokémon life cycles are drastically different compared to canon so as to add more biological realism to them. | |

Cerebus Retcon: The regions from the Pokémon Ranger series are given reason as to why they completely bar their doors to trainers. Of all the regions to suffer from the Cypher war, they had the worst fallout, so trainers are forbidden from entering. | |

Wham Episode: Chapter 8: Ash, Paul, and Gary attack the Game Corner and are nearly killed by Team Rocket Admins. Pikachu is crippled and needs rehabilitation. Chapter 16: Team Rocket attack the St. Anne. Proton and Petrel nearly kill the main characters again, and inform them that the operation was planned specifically to get revenge on them. Then, Team Rocket's new experimental device activates and evolves every Magikarp in the area to Gyarados, killing thousands of people on the lifeboats. Charizard is knocked out and Ash only survives due to getting caught on a Gyarados fleeing in pain. Chapter 29 reveals that Team Rocket managed to capture Latios! | |

| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_a60f7120 | comment |
Legendary Pokémon are not as impressive as they are in the games or anime. They tend to range from extremely powerful to Physical God depending on the legendary. Here, the ones shown so far are just stronger-than-normal Pokémon, given that Team Rocket captured Latios with what doesn't seem to be too much trouble. | |

Demoted to Extra: Since the story-line has more similarities with the games, Brock and Misty aren't prevalent outside their gyms and the occasional cameo here and there. Pikachu, while an important part of Ash's team, isn't his main partner and best friend here, so his relevance is much less than the anime. | |

No-Nonsense Nemesis: The Team Rocket Admins do not mess around. Their response to someone messing with their operations is to enact a search and destroy operation on the cruise liner they're on, massacring thousands just for the opportunity to attack a nuisance with no potential for League interference. | |

The Nicknamer | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_c83cd6b8 | comment |
The Nicknamer: Ash gives nicknames to most of his Pokémon: Pyro is a Charmander (Later Charmeleon and Charizard). Sobek is a Sandile (Later Krokorok and Krookodile). Douse is a Poliwhirl (Later Poliwrath). Spectre is a Duskull. Jasmine is a Dratini. Arctus is a Cubchoo. Both Pikachu and Eevee (later Espeon) refused nicknames when captured. Rhydon was also not given a nickname on being captured, nor was Gyarados. Averted with Paul and Gary, who don't give any of their Pokémon nicknames. Leaf also gives some of her Pokémon nicknames: Saur is a Bulbasaur (Later Ivysaur and Venusaur). Rose is a Ponyta. Bomber is a Voltorb. | |

Spiritual Antithesis | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_ce2969d8 | comment |
Spiritual Antithesis: While inspired by Traveler's reconstructive take on the Pokémon mythos, Challenger is more rooted in science and biology such as how evolution works while Traveler has a greater emphasis on the mythical aspects of the Pokémon world such as the physical gods that roam it and their connections to certain individuals. The legendary Pokémon in both stories are also polar opposite to each other. While Traveler had them as unstoppable gods who change the nature of the world by their very appearance, Challenger treats them as stronger than average Pokémon that can be captured by humans. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Darkfire1220's Challenger (Fanfic) / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Cynthia; while she's still quite the badass, she's not yet Sinnoh's Champion and simply works for the Sinnoh League. Though this is justified by the Sinnoh League being a fairly recent development, so there hasn't been anyone strong enough to become Champion. It's implied that Chimchar's Blaze ability is on par with the average Chimchar. In the anime, it turned him into an unstoppable force of nature. Legendary Pokémon are not as impressive as they are in the games or anime. They tend to range from extremely powerful to Physical God depending on the legendary. Here, the ones shown so far are just stronger-than-normal Pokémon, given that Team Rocket captured Latios with what doesn't seem to be too much trouble. | |

Norman and family show up too; In this fic, Norman is a Pokémon Tech teacher, and Ash is called in to teach some humility to his students. Characters from the Kalos region show up early as well; specifically Alain and Professor Sycamore. | |
