Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Perplexing Magnolia Disruption and Platonic Management Dilemma, known under the collective title of SMGPMD, is a series of sprite comics by Shard. The story covers the adventures of Team SMG after they are pulled into the world of Pokémon - specifically, the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series - and search for a way home while trying to help the Pokémon who live there. Perplexing Magnolia Disruption is the first comic in the series, and focuses on Team SMG's efforts to Save the World from Mewtwo. It has been completed as of April 9th, 2012. Platonic Management Dilemma is the second and most recent comic in the series, and focuses on Team SMG, Team KHV, and Team Rangers as they try to discover exactly what's going on so they can get back home.The series is an Affectionate Parody of the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, and thus contains several elements from it, while still using its own plot and ideas.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The main characters, as of Platonic Management Dilemma, are: Team SMG, composed of Shard (turned into an Eevee), Matt (turned into a Cyndaquil, who later evolved into Quilava), and Glandor (turned into a Riolu, who later evolved into Lucario). They are generally the 'heroes' of the series and fall under a morally good scale. Team Rangers, composed of Blue (a Wartortle), Pink (a Clefable), Red (a Magmar), Yellow (an Electabuzz), Green (a Groovyle) and Black (a Shuppet). A parody of Sentai who fall into more of a neutral good area, generally trying to help people but not exactly great with morals and aren't below fighting ditry. And Team KHV, the Evil Counterpart of Team SMG, composed of Kumori (turned into an Umbreon), Hatashi (turned into a Typhlosion), and Venus (turned into a Buneary, who later evolved into Lopunny). While they are usually villains, Kumori has stepped up and led them to try and help with the Pokémon's problems. As a whole, the team just wants to go home.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Morphic Resonance: Team SMG retain their accessories (a headset for Glandor, goggles for Matt, and a headband (in Perplexing) or a headband and bandana (in Platonic) for Shard) as Pokémon. Team KHV does not keep any accessories (partly because they don't have any), but their coloration stays the same.

Defeat Means Friendship
 SMGPMD (Webcomic) / int_19769f50
comment
Defeat Means Friendship: Generally, boss Pokémon won't listen to anyone until they've had some sense knocked into them. Averted by Moltres and Mewtwo, though, who had every intention of killing Team SMG until they were talked down - Moltres by Shard, and Mewtwo by Kumori and Mew. Averted in the sequel with all three teams: Entei only fights Team SMG because they can't pay him for his services conventionally, and when Shard proposes an alternative he stops fighting. Suicune only fights them to test their strength to make sure they can fight Raikou and Ho-Oh. Team KHV have not befriended any of their opponents. They only get what they need from Moltres so he can get them out of his feathers, and Articuno seems to be terrified of them thanks to Venus. Team Rangers is simply being tested by the Four Servants of Celebi, as the Servants want them to teach Celebi a lesson for bringing Team SMG and Team KHV to the world of Pokémon, which they don't believe was the right thing to do.

The Cameo: Matt, Glandor, Hatashi and Venus are not actually Shard's characters. Unfortunately, since Matt doesn't make comics often and Glandor doesn't make comics period, a lot of people think they are.

Cursed with Awesome: Venus is quite annoyed with becoming a Pokémon because she became a Buneary, which is, in her mind, a "small annoying rabbit thing". She starts to get over it when Kumori tells her she can still use her powers, though. And now that she's evolved, she's quite happy with the change.

Milestone Celebration: A few different ones. For Perplexing Magnolia Disruption, comic 50 marked Team Rangers' dramatic entrance, complete with art, comic 100 was (sloppily) drawn, comic 151 was a Q&A special (which took questions on comic 150), and 200 was longer than normal. For Platonic Management Dilemma, so far, when the comic hit 15(1) fans, there was another Q&A special, and comic 100 was longer than normal.

Big Good: Mew for Perplexing Magnolia Disruption. It's been implied that Celebi may be playing this role in Platonic Management Dilemma, but we haven't seen enough of him to know just yet.

Useless Useful Spell
 SMGPMD (Webcomic) / int_4c709317
comment
Useless Useful Spell: Shard's Mira is very potent against powers, making her effectively immune to any type of Mind Manipulation (except Kumori's possession, but that's because she knows how to get around it). However, it also makes her immune to things like healing, teleportation, and Status Buff spells. It also can't defend against physical attacks and weapons, and if the barriers are broken by those, Shard herself takes damage because of it.

But Thou Must!: Not present in Perplexing Magnolia Disruption due to Team SMG's tendency to have Chronic Hero Syndrome, but in Platonic Management Dilemma, Venus objects to helping the Pokémon (irritated from being turned into a Buneary). Kumori, Mewtwo and the ARE triple-team her to force her to help out.

Mistaken for Gay: A variation- When Yellow starts hitting on Glandor, Red expresses confusion that Yellow "Likes other men". Yellow quickly snaps, telling him that she's actually a girl. This was actually parodying the tendency for female Yellow Rangers to have been male in the Sentai version.

Beware the Silly Ones: Entei spends most of his time on-screen doing generally silly and derpy things - but he is still a Legendary Pokémon, with all the things that implies. The rest of the Legendary Pokémon roll by this as well, with quirky personalities making them quite silly to be around, though not to as extreme an extent as Entei. Team Rangers, who spend half their time acting like Power Rangers and arguing with one another, and the other half kicking ass.

Motor Mouth: Articuno, basically any time he opens his mouth. The characters eventually start telling him to shut up before he can get started. Even Niv tells him to shut up in the Q&A special. Zapdos has the "speaking quickly" variation, where no spaces are used for her text, ever. The only exception was during her and Shard's race, in which spaces were given to Zapdos and an extra space was given to Shard to help punctuate exactly how fast they were moving.

Evil Counterpart: Team KHV to Team SMG, as a whole- while Hatashi and Venus play this straight, Kumori is more of a subversion, being neutral rather than evil like the other two. Venus is actually explicitly this to Glandor - she is his corrupted opposite, making her everything that he's not and him everything that she's not.

Foreshadowing: In the Q&A special, Matt is asked if he wants to evolve again. He says no, since Typhlosion reminds him of Hatashi. Come Platonic Management Dilemma, his rival, Hatashi, becomes a Typhlosion. On their first night in the world of Pokémon, Team SMG contemplates their dilemma. Each one gets a fancy background to go along with this- Matt gets a fiery background, Glandor gets a blue glow, and Shard gets a lilac sphere. This turns out to be a direct reference to their powers and what order they figure out they can use them in- Matt utilizes his fire first, Glandor activates his telekinesis, which glows to show it's in use, second, and Shard activates her Mira, commonly in spherical or circular shapes, last. In a batch of lyrics for a parody of I Am The Walrus, Shard gives us the following lines-

Big Sister Mentor: Again, Kumori to Shard. While the two are on opposite sides, it's clear that Kumori doesn't hate or dislike Shard. In fact, throughout the events of Perplexing Magnolia Disruption, Kumori was constantly guiding and helping Team SMG. When Mew called her out on being Team SMG's enemy and yet helping them, Kumori simply said that her reasons were her own. Word Of God has implied that Kumori does what she does in order to help Shard become more brave and strong.

Chronic Hero Syndrome: Team SMG will help anyone in need.

In Platonic Management Dilemma, they, without thinking of any possible consequences, agree to return to the world of Pokémon to help them out again.

Fish out of Water: Team SMG and KHV. It doesn't come up much, though, because Pokémon is a game series in their home world, and thus they are somewhat familiar with the mechanics. However, both Glandor and Venus don't know enough about it to have a significant advantage. The second Q&A special and the 9th poll hint at one of Team Rangers' members having once been human. However, it hasn't been revealed who, and Word Of God says it's not that important to the present-day story. This may mean she has a prequel centered around Team Rangers' backstory planned.

Venus hates being weak, or anything that might imply her own weakness. It's one of the reasons she hated being turned into a Buneary. She also gets pissed when Kumori taunts her by telling her that she'll be alone forever.

Fun with Acronyms: Perplexing Magnolia Disruption, which makes an acronym matching Pokémon Mystery Dungeon's. The same goes for its sequel, Platonic Management Dilemma. Also done with Team SMG, which stands for Shard Matt Glandor, not Sub-Machine Gun or Super Mario Galaxy, and the ARE, or the Adorable Random Encounter/Authoritative Reasoning Enforcer. And then there's Kumori Hatashi Venus. Shard seems to be fond of this trope.

The Nicknamer: Shard tends to give people she's close to nicknames so it's easier for her to remember them. Glandor is "Sunflower" and Matt is "Matt Matt".

We Cannot Go On Without You: Justified. Green explains to Matt that should he be knocked out, the rest of Team SMG will have to take him to safety so he can recover. This ends up working both ways - when Shard defeats Blue later on, Pink decides against getting revenge so she can take Blue to safety.

A Dog Named "Dog" / Species Surname: Most Pokémon that aren't some form of main character have this, but the fact that Team Rangers all have nicknames - and Blue's tendency to call Shard by her species name in Perplexing Magnolia Disruption - indicates that it's possible for Pokémon to come up with nicknames for themselves and probably just chose not to for the most part.

Brick Joke: 36 comics later, Shard and Matt finally get to wake up Glandor with a liberal use of water. At the end of Chapter Four, Shard invites Entei to the guild and Treasure Town in exchange for some information. At the end of Chapter Five, Team KHV returns to the guild, only to discover Shard chatting happily to Entei (much to Kumori's confusion). A series-crossing one comes when Team KHV goes to Mystifying Forest... and has a similar reaction to when Team SMG went there. Niv even lampshades it.

Talking Is a Free Action
 SMGPMD (Webcomic) / int_ff5a74c8
comment
Talking Is a Free Action: Played with. According to Word Of God, most Pokémon are affected by the turn-based system, however legendary Pokémon and outsiders - that is, Team SMG and KHV - are exempt from this rule and are able to attack in whatever order they choose. This means that Xatu is unable to attack Team Rangers until all six of them have attacked him - and Black didn't take his turn. It's also played more straight during the fight against Entei - a badly-placed Sunny Day attack causes Glandor to evolve, and Matt explains Glandor's new weakness to him... while Shard and Entei have a staring contest.
