* CombatPragmatist : The Jenny in "A Poached Ego", where she instantly beats the poacher Rico by quickly stealing the Poké Ball containing his ace, Tyranitar. In fairness, [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown what he had it do to Team Rocket]] (both Pokemon ''and trainers'') was more than enough to warrant this resort.

* TheDreaded: Played for laughs. After a while, Ash and his pals become ''terrified'' when this little critter shows up, because they know exactly what it's about to do to them. In its final appearance, Ash, Brock and Pikachu all have "ThisIsGonnaSuck" reactions when they see it again and keep trying to warn May and Max that its presence is ''not'' as fun as it seems.

* NormalFishInATinyPond: After he started consistently obeying Ash, he became one of his trainer's toughest Pokémon, and generally served as his ace in the hole. The visit to Charicific Valley, however, shows him to be a weakling by the standards of his kind. This is subverted later on, however, as he [[TookALevelInBadass made serious efforts to improve himself]], eventually becoming one of the valley's more respectable battlers.
