Pedestal (Fanfic) | comment |
Pedestal is a Pokémon fanfic that starts out deceptively similar to other stories. A young trainer aspires To Be a Master, with great dreams of being the best, placing his hoped-for Pokemon on a pedestal. A year later than most trainers, he finally receives his starter... And it's a Numel. Hilarity Ensues, but not for long.It later becomes Darker and Edgier than the games, with heavy deconstruction of prophecies deciding fates and the general theme of chosen ones, and the consequences of ignoring warnings. However, it still has moments of comedy. | |

Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_1a6755f9 | comment |
Climactic Battle Resurrection: A minor one happened during the battle against Vaporeon, where nearly everyone except for the main character and his group get killed. The battle on Stark Mountain is also this, as everyone except the main character, Lola and Nick get taken out of action pretty quickly once the fighting starts proper. | |

Shout-Out Theme Naming: Nick fits this trope best, surprisingly enough. Nick's Garchomp, Chase, is a shout-out to Chevy Chase, voice of the landshark in the Saturday Night Live skits. We also have Chekhov, Who, Patru, Harlan, Jules, and Ser, which is short for Serling. | |

Failure Is the Only Option: The only way for the story to end peacefully at this point is if Nick goes to jail or dies. Considering the protagonist's feelings towards him and the fact that he already bailed him out of prison once before... He dies. Via Arceus. | |

Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_471a505f | comment |
Four Is Death: There are four Pidgey chicks when the main character adopts them. Is it that surprising that not all of them make it? Poor Oonu and Woonu... Also, the time Nick goes through Victory Road when his Rhyhorn nearly dies, and he releases his Froslass because it wouldn't kill is stated to be the fourth time, many chapters before it's revealed this all happened. In a more comedic example, the protagonist is deeply afraid of the fourth gym in the traditional circuit, Crasher Wake's, because his Water type is double super effective against the protagonist's starter. | |

Vaporeon holds the mercenary's girlfriend hostage in order to ensure his loyalty. Lola does this to Alicia to get the the main character's side to withdraw their pokemon during a battle. Finally, Nick's family was held hostage to get him to hand himself in to the authorities. | |

Karmic Twist Ending | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_67c287fe | comment |
Karmic Twist Ending: Arguably, most of the ghosts' warning turns out to have this to some degree. The protagonist was effectively put on trial by the public during the Gym race arc, he purposely was out trying to become as dark as possible to avoid psychic locks, he's been nothing but sidetracked to the point that Arceus had to drop in on his dreams to try to set him back on track, his personality has become much more cynical and distant, and he still hasn't let go of Nick. The real kicker is that he is even aware of the last one, and simply is unable to. The only part of the prophecy that's been completely played straight so far is that they told him not to die - but it's unknown whether that was the ghosts' attempt at humor or honestly a part of the warning. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_7335ffa9 | comment |
Grey-and-Gray Morality: The main villain only snapped and killed in revenge of his little brother's death because the government did absolutely nothing about it, even when it happened before (and to the main character!). Many characters have voiced sentiments agreeing with his basic ideals, even if he took things too far. Although he now has followers who completely agree with him, possibly more than he himself agrees. The 'good guys' also have done horrible things. The main character himself has killed a Pokemon, is more keen on stopping his ex-best friend instead of his fanatical followers, Shadow Sneaked an entire camera crew to who knows where and never bothered to care about where they potentially ended up, may or may not have been indirectly responsible for the deaths of at least eight Pokemon, and, of course, could very well be responsible for Nick becoming a monster and causing the rest of the tragedies, anyway. | |

Curse Cut Short: Fairly often, although more and more in recent chapters due to the rating going up. Chapter 121 starts off with a "Holy freaking sh—", the first time the protagonist has resorted to such language. | |

Stay in the Kitchen: The main character bans Hanna and Cossette from coming with him to face Nick. This is justified though, as he thinks Hanna doesn't have any pokemon and Cossette has next to no battle experience and only has a crippled Gallade to rely on. This doesn't dissuade them in the least. | |

Karma Houdini: Depending on whether or not you believe she was lying, Lola qualifies. If she was telling the truth, she masterminded at least most of the major plot points and was even behind several deaths, albeit indirectly. And while she dies, she wanted to die. She died happily, knowing she was able to get one last, great rise out of the protagonist. Aside from some mild injuries, she didn't suffer any sort of karma. | |

Insane Troll Logic | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic: The people who attempt to follow in Nick's footsteps believe that, if any member of your Pokémon team is the same as any that Nick has, or the same as one of the names taken on by the people who ran the Tournament, you're instantly on their side. They do lampshade this by claiming it's definitely not a foolproof method, and they only seem to believe it for certain if you have at least three of the same Pokémon (though one or two still puts you on their radar), but still. Slightly justified in that those particular Pokémon aren't too common, and after Nick's attempted slaughter of the Champion, publicly owning one of those Pokémon does make you suspicious in general. Then again, this just means that if you aren't completely clued in, or if you had the misfortune of owning a Garchomp or Flygon or Houndoom before all this started, you're going to be under suspicion and possibly hunted down for no reason. Certainly happened to Vaikuntha and Benjamin. | |

Five Stages of Grief: In chapter 151, the protagonist's messages to Nick each seem to be one of these stages, albeit out of order; the first is bargaining (begging Nick to pick up), the second is depression, the third is anger, the fourth is denial (thinking Nick had a reason or explanation), and the fifth seems to be a rather broken acceptance. | |

Chekhov's Gunman | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_dcbe8a6e | comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: Lola. She has an Early-Bird Cameo when the main characters journey to Snowpoint, and while she gets more focus during the tournament and gym race arcs the most pivotal moment she's involved in is being killed on national televison. Much later, it's revealed that her murder was a sham, and she's had a hand in almost all the obstacles the main character has had to face in the story so far - such as being the driving force behind Nick's worsening Sanity Slippage, the organiser of the nightmare attacks, and being one who goaded the main character into attacking Vaporeon by sending messages from Nick's number. She's also manipulated many events in the protagonists life from behind the scenes, such as fixing the tournament so that they'd achieve a gym position and covering up their involvement in Nick's prison break. Finally she's 'the first' in the ghosts' prophecy... | |

Disguised in Drag: The protagonist cross-dresses as a girl in order to get past border control. He later swaps outfits with another girl in order to escape from Sunyshore Gym. | |

Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_e8b0f099 | comment |
Dark Is Evil: The dark-haired trainer turned out to be Nick, and we find that out just before his Freak Out. He has also been stated to wear dark clothes from then on out. In Chapter 147, it is implied that the dark-haired monster might actually be Lola. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Interestingly, two examples in The Tournament arc: inverted when the protagonist busts out of the building to save people, and when the main antagonist, Nick, shows up and kills his own followers to stop the fighting and probably save them from a very bloody Curb-Stomp Battle. Lucian at the very end of the Vaporeon Arc. Sela and Vaikuntha tend to become this from time to time, such as being part of The Cavalry who arrives to assist the protagonist's team at the battle of Stark Mountain. | |

The Starscream | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_eedee4d | comment |
The Starscream: Ike detests being made a trainer's pokemon, and for the first part of the story actively looks for ways to undermine the main character. He gradually grows out of this as the story progresses. | |

Early-Bird Cameo | |
Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_f0089082 | comment |
Early-Bird Cameo: Lola gets introduced way back when the main character and Hanna first visited Snowpoint City, and only pops up again during The Tournament arc. Also, the Electabuzz that the main character owned for all of 10 minutes comes back later with a more important role, as one of Lola's pokemon. | |

Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_f42f96fa | comment |
Would Hit a Girl: The protagonist smacks Lola with a Skarmory feather to shut her up while confronting Nick. The protagonist also slaps Hanna. To be fair, she started it. | |

Pedestal (Fanfic) / int_f516f938 | comment |
Never Found the Body: The bodies of many people who died in the Vaporeon Arc, including Archie and Lola were never recovered due to the place they died in going up in flames. However the real reason that Lola's was never recovered was because she wasn't actually dead in the first place... | |

Theme Naming: Jude plays this straight with the pokemon he breeds, though some of the themes he pictures are a little obscure. For example Eevee litter Isabella and Alexander came from all had four-syllable names that started with vowels. | |

Blood-Splattered Innocents: The main character, although how innocent he is at this point in the story is debatable. And more often than not, it's his own blood. Later a much straighter example occur with Cossette. | |
