History Characters / FZeroX

* {{Humanoid Alien|s}}: Averted: When asked what planet he's from, he responds:
-->'''Zoda:''' "Earth. I'm not an alien, I'm an improved version of the human!"

* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: Chapter 7 of Story Mode in ''GX'' is so notorious for breaking the rules (i.e. Black Shadow ''staying in 1st place'' '''''without using his boost''''') that Nipple Bandit's legendary, AO-rated [[http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=711267 rant]] from Website/SomethingAwful is listed in the [[Quotes/NintendoHard quotes section]] of NintendoHard. Yeah, ''that'' bad.

* WakeUpCallBoss: If Samurai Goroh was a test of your driving skills, Michael Chain is a test of your ability to break your opponents' vehicles. As there is no recharge pad on his mission, the only way you can reach him is by breaking ''every single car'' before him and ensuring you have enough energy once you reach him to break his car before the end of the race.

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: He is Jody's HopelessSuitor, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGlCkrtjHOo whereas Jody may be crushing on Falcon.]] Poor guy, [[SomethingAboutARose a rose]] and everything...

* AdaptationalDyeJob: In F-Zero X, Leon's fur was previously a yellow-brown color, but F-Zero GX turned it into a dark brown color.

* ScaryBlackMan: Subverted. He's a musclebound poser.

* InformedAbility: In ''F-Zero X'', he was considered to have ''the'' best machine (due to the physics engine and all), [[{{Nerf}} but the new engine in]] ''[[{{Nerf}} GX]]'' [[{{Nerf}} ran the Blood Hawk into the ground hard]], to the point of being considered the 2nd worst machine in the game and nowhere near the Blue Falcon that it's supposedly superior to.

* KingKoopaCopy: Black Shadow has some traits of this. First, he's one of the biggest characters in the franchise, and his suit displays large horns. Second, his Black Bull is the heaviest car in the series and it can reach the maximum top speed, another trait of Bowser in the ''Mario Kart'' series. Third, despite his scary nature, he can be [[AffablyEvil surprisingly affable]] to his opponents and people who ask him risky questions.

* LightningBruiser: In ''GX'', the Black Bull has fearsome speed (that takes a while to reach) and can demolish most things in its way.

--> '''Black Shadow:''' Aheheheh… you've got courage. [[WeCanRuleTogether You want to come work for me?]]

* SlasherSmile: One of the big differences between him and Captain Falcon is his toothy grin.

* TakeOverTheWorld: His EvilPlan. [[HilariousInHindsight Take it away]], [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Bison]].
--> '''[[Film/StreetFighter Bison]]:''' "[[MemeticMutation Of course!]]"
--> '''Zoda:''' "[[CardCarryingVillain It's every bad guy's dream, of course!]]"

* VillainsOutShopping: His ''GX'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBkDZdQbQZ4 Master Class video]] is one of the [[RunningGag laundromat videos]].

* CatchPhrase: [[ThePowerOfFriendship "Friendship is a treasure that lasts a lifetime."]]

-->'''The Skull:''' (''to his fellow racers'') [[SeeYouInHell "Here's a one-way ticket to the netherworld."]]

* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: There are times when she comes across as vain (such as calling herself [[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman "the most beautiful champion in F-Zero history"]]) and overconfident ("Was such a {{foregone conclusion}} boring to watch?"), but her heart is always in the right place. For example, she averts being a RichBitch by offering up the prize money to charity.

* CombatPragmatist: [[BadassCreed "The heart of a devil! Doing whatever it takes to win!"]]

-->'''John Tanaka:''' [[NoodleIncident "Yes, I only came down off that mountain one time."]]

* LargeAndInCharge: He leads a criminal organization, and is the tallest and buffiest character introduced in ''X''.

* {{Satan}}: Although that [[SarcasmMode "honor"]] really goes to Deathborn, with the horns and the black clothing, he definitely gives off these vibes.
