* HeelFaceDoorSlam: After Gumball is teleported away to face off against Mother Brain and Chi Chi, Dagon Darwin is nearly talked down by the others, especially Nicole and Carrie. However, a large beam of purple energy (most likely sent by Mother Brain) causes him to go berserk again and slam Nicole into the sea. He gets better, though, but only after one more fight.

Well, this is going to be long.[[CanonImmigrant You may notice that a pre-existing character from the]] [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Metroid series is here?]] Well, this version of the [[ArchEnemy main nemesis of Samus Aran]] has gone off in a completely different direction. Born on the Planet Kakavanthara, he was jetisonned into space by his parents as the planet was scheduled to be devoured by the God of Cartoon Network (the universe where he was born). Raised by Space Pirates, he rose up the ranks until he had to go to school under the care of a rabbit named Josephine. [[WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball You can see where this is going, as he grew to like his new home, Elmore.]] Eventually, he met and, eventually, fell in love with fellow classmate Nicole. The years passed and they got married, but, due to a terminal disease, Ridley needed to be upgraded. The process was successful, but he ended up going insane because of it. He still lives happily with his family, despite his insanity and the typical trouble that Elmore throws at them. WHEW!
* AlternateUniverse: The canon in the Review Team officially retconned Richard's existence and replaced him with this guy.
* AntiHero: He's willing to save the day and even more so in taking care of his family, but usually he's in for the money and the havoc.
* BeastAndBeauty: With his wife.
* BiTheWay: Though he's mostly interested in girls, he kissed Gwonam Looney Tunes style at one point. This was a joke, though.
* BlackComedy: Par for the course as he shoots and blows his way through the competition.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He may strive to be a good family man, but his tendency to kill is a bit much.
* BodyHorror: Look at him and compare him to the usual depictions of Ridley. He just looks...wrong.
* CaptainErsatz: Though the story has long since been deleted, there was a fan character (who is still active, but radically altered) on the Website/DeviantArt page named Rick who acted in a few ways the same.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He and Nicole knew each-other since the day they went to school.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Try to read ANY bit of his dialogue and deny this.
* CreepyGood: Oh dear GOD, look at him!
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: More like 'Cybernetics Eat Your Sanity'! From what we get, Ridley was very much sane until his upgrade. Now, he has voices in his head and his need to kill has been magnified. Still a devoted husband, though.
* {{Expy}}: Sigh...changed by circumstances, breaks the fourth wall, has voices in his head, violent and gun happy, VOICED BY NOLAN NORTH...[[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} Who do you think?]] Also, he fits the bill of the one he replaced, Richard, in terms of his marriage.
* FriendToAllChildren: We know he loves his kids very much.
* FunnySchizophrenia: Those voices in his head sell it.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: Unless Kakavantharian technology and heavy objects are put into the mix. The latter will just slow him down.
* HealingFactor: See above for why.
* HearingVoices: Much like [[{{Expy}} the one he's based one]], he has a serious voice and a gleeful, yet ignorant, voice in his head. They provide comic relief.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: Proven to be this even when he's saving the earth.
* HotWailordOnSkittyAction: If the games and how tall he is compared to Squidward all come to mind, Meta-Ridley is freakin' HUGE compared to Nicole. And he has 2 biological children (Darwin is adopted and Anais...well, even he doesn't know).
* InterspeciesRomance: With Nicole.
* LargeHam: He is voiced by Nolan North. Enough said.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obhkiPewDBU Do we even have to say it?]]
** However, this was radically changed to...[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRmwFBK0cyk this.]]
** And then it got changed back to the original. Just who's getting that other theme, then?
* LethalJokeCharacter: Just because he's a funnier version of the original Ridley doesn't mean he's any less dangerous.
* MeaningfulName: Well, his middle one is Ripentear.
--> ''"Because talent."''
* MotorMouth: It's nigh impossible to get him to stop talking when he starts.
* NarratingThePresent: Does this 24/7 whenever he can.
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: It seems only jerks get the receiving end of his power.
* OppositesAttract: Though he was sane to begin with (making it easy to see why Nicole married him), his present insanity would normally make it impossible to see him with a motherly, if not stressed to the breaking point, wife. Their marriage still works.
* PsychoForHire: How he got recruited for a brief moment by Sir in the first place.
* RedOniBlueOni: His two voices. The blue one is even represented by his past self, which, [[DeadpanSnarker judging by his attitude]], has just given up on Ridley.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: Without all those upgrades (and his loss of sanity), the disease that was ravaging his body would have killed him.
* TalkativeLoon: To be expected from a guy like this.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: His teammates are VERY uncomfortable with him around. Even the God of Cartoon Network is uneasy around him.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chimichangas, judging by his bio page.
* TriggerHappy: In the presence of guns, of course.
* UglyGuyHotWife: You thought Richard was ugly? Just replace him with a monstrous metal dragon who's lost more marbles than we can count! His wife is still the adorable, yet temperamental, cat girl we know.
* UnreliableNarrator: Not too bad, but he tends to fall into this. It takes his sane voice to set him straight.

Well, this is going to be long.[[CanonImmigrant You may notice that a pre-existing character from the]] [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Metroid series is here?]] Well, this version of the [[ArchEnemy main nemesis of Samus Aran]] has gone off in a completely different direction. Born on the Planet Kakavanthara, he was jetisonned into space by his parents as the planet was scheduled to be devoured by the God of Cartoon Network (the universe where he was born). Raised by Space Pirates, he rose up the ranks until he had to go to school under the care of a rabbit named Josephine. [[WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball You can see where this is going, as he grew to like his new home, Elmore.]] Eventually, he met and, eventually, fell in love with fellow classmate Nicole. The years passed and they got married, but, due to a terminal disease, Ridley needed to be upgraded. The process was successful, but he ended up going insane because of it. He still lives happily with his family, despite his insanity and the typical trouble that Elmore throws at them. WHEW!
* AlternateUniverse: The canon in the Review Team officially retconned Richard's existence and replaced him with this guy.
* AntiHero: He's willing to save the day and even more so in taking care of his family, but usually he's in for the money and the havoc.
* BeastAndBeauty: With his wife.
* BiTheWay: Though he's mostly interested in girls, he kissed Gwonam Looney Tunes style at one point. This was a joke, though.
* BlackComedy: Par for the course as he shoots and blows his way through the competition.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He may strive to be a good family man, but his tendency to kill is a bit much.
* BodyHorror: Look at him and compare him to the usual depictions of Ridley. He just looks...wrong.
* CaptainErsatz: Though the story has long since been deleted, there was a fan character (who is still active, but radically altered) on the Website/DeviantArt page named Rick who acted in a few ways the same.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He and Nicole knew each-other since the day they went to school.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Try to read ANY bit of his dialogue and deny this.
* CreepyGood: Oh dear GOD, look at him!
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: More like 'Cybernetics Eat Your Sanity'! From what we get, Ridley was very much sane until his upgrade. Now, he has voices in his head and his need to kill has been magnified. Still a devoted husband, though.
* {{Expy}}: Sigh...changed by circumstances, breaks the fourth wall, has voices in his head, violent and gun happy, VOICED BY NOLAN NORTH...[[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} Who do you think?]] Also, he fits the bill of the one he replaced, Richard, in terms of his marriage.
* FriendToAllChildren: We know he loves his kids very much.
* FunnySchizophrenia: Those voices in his head sell it.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: Unless Kakavantharian technology and heavy objects are put into the mix. The latter will just slow him down.
* HealingFactor: See above for why.
* HearingVoices: Much like [[{{Expy}} the one he's based one]], he has a serious voice and a gleeful, yet ignorant, voice in his head. They provide comic relief.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: Proven to be this even when he's saving the earth.
* HotWailordOnSkittyAction: If the games and how tall he is compared to Squidward all come to mind, Meta-Ridley is freakin' HUGE compared to Nicole. And he has 2 biological children (Darwin is adopted and Anais...well, even he doesn't know).
* InterspeciesRomance: With Nicole.
* LargeHam: He is voiced by Nolan North. Enough said.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obhkiPewDBU Do we even have to say it?]]
** However, this was radically changed to...[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRmwFBK0cyk this.]]
** And then it got changed back to the original. Just who's getting that other theme, then?
* LethalJokeCharacter: Just because he's a funnier version of the original Ridley doesn't mean he's any less dangerous.
* MeaningfulName: Well, his middle one is Ripentear.
--> ''"Because talent."''
* MotorMouth: It's nigh impossible to get him to stop talking when he starts.
* NarratingThePresent: Does this 24/7 whenever he can.
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: It seems only jerks get the receiving end of his power.
* OppositesAttract: Though he was sane to begin with (making it easy to see why Nicole married him), his present insanity would normally make it impossible to see him with a motherly, if not stressed to the breaking point, wife. Their marriage still works.
* PsychoForHire: How he got recruited for a brief moment by Sir in the first place.
* RedOniBlueOni: His two voices. The blue one is even represented by his past self, which, [[DeadpanSnarker judging by his attitude]], has just given up on Ridley.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: Without all those upgrades (and his loss of sanity), the disease that was ravaging his body would have killed him.
* TalkativeLoon: To be expected from a guy like this.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: His teammates are VERY uncomfortable with him around. Even the God of Cartoon Network is uneasy around him.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chimichangas, judging by his bio page.
* TriggerHappy: In the presence of guns, of course.
* UglyGuyHotWife: You thought Richard was ugly? Just replace him with a monstrous metal dragon who's lost more marbles than we can count! His wife is still the adorable, yet temperamental, cat girl we know.
* UnreliableNarrator: Not too bad, but he tends to fall into this. It takes his sane voice to set him straight.
