* IronicEcho: His first and last lines to Clint, with the last being much HarsherInHindsight.

* ForgottenFallenFriend: He goes completely unmentioned beyond ''Age of Ultron'', aside from Hawkeye indirectly alluding to Pietro in ''Civil War'' by suggesting he owed someone a debt. Finally subverted by the events of ''[=WandaVision=]'', in which Wanda brings up the fact that she's a twin and that her brother didn't make it... And is disturbed as soon as "Geraldine" mentions that Ultron killed him. Given her reaction, it's less Pietro's been forgotten and more [[TraumaButton bringing him up around Wanda is too much of a raw nerve.]]

* TwinsAreSpecial: Subverted. Pietro and Wanda are classified as "enhanced individuals" because of their powers, but their powers are not a product of their twinness, nor are their abilities (superspeed and psychic/magical abilities, respectively) particularly complementary. When Pietro dies, Wanda does instantly sense it from far away, but a reciprocal psychic link between the two hadn't been established before this point, so it's likely this has more to do with Wanda's individual telepathy than anything else.

* TheBabyOfTheBunch: During the brief time he was part of The Avengers, Pietro was one of the youngest member alongside his sister Wanda (who is technically 12 minutes younger than him). While in his mid-twenties, he was probably the most childish member of the team and occasionally teased the older members about their age, such as calling Hawkeye an "old man".

* AHeroToHisHometown: While he's initially an enemy to The Avengers, he's this to Novi Grad, Sokovia. The locals gladly accept the stolen supplies he provides for them and follow his order to leave the city without question in {{Deleted Scene}}s. He's even more well-liked than Wanda because he's much more sociable and friendlier. However, it's implied that the local law enforcement isn't too fond of him (likely because he steals from the rich citizens) as they initially ignore his pleas to evacuate the city until he fires a gun in the air and orders them to get off their asses. Some of the locals are even on a FirstNameBasis with him, likely because they knew him way before he got his superpowers.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Pietro and Wanda Maximoff have an IrrationalHatred of Tony Stark, whom they blame for the death of their parents because a mortar shell from Stark Industries killed them. So they reply by joining '''HYDRA''', ''the'' NebulousEvilOrganisation on Earth which has inflicted ten times the damage of Stark Industries. It gets even worse as when HYDRA fails to stop the Avengers, the twins join [[BigBad Ultron]] and only switch sides when they learn he means [[OmnicidalManiac to destroy the entire world]] and kill every single person (including them). Not to mention, they had no problem brainwashing The Hulk and unleashing him on a defenseless town; one wonders how many people were killed by the green artillery shell with the Maximoffs' names written on it that they themselves fired, and the irony of this is completely lost on them.

* SiblingSenioritySquabble: Pietro normally follows Wanda's lead, but when she tells him not to worry about protecting her and to help the people of Sokovia in the climactic battle, he jokingly reminds her that he's technically older than her by twelve minutes before complying (in the original comics, it is traditionally Wanda who is the older twin).

* TwinsAreSpecial: Subverted. Pietro and Wanda are classified as "enhanced individuals" because of their powers, but their powers are not a product of their twinness, nor are their abilities particularly complementary. When Pietro dies, Wanda does instantly sense it from far away, but a reciprocal psychic link between the two hadn't been established before this point, so it's likely this has more to do with Wanda's individual telepathy than anything else.
