History Characters / VoltronLegendaryDefenderTeamVoltron

* PrettyBoy: He's slender and drawn with large eyes, driving this point home.

* ChildHater: A downplayed example, but Allura has trouble handling Coran when he de-ages. WordOfGod confirms that she dislikes children.

* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Allura demonstrates a significant number of stereotypical feminine qualities (especially compared to [[{{Tomboy}} Pidge]]), such as wearing [[PinkMeansFeminine pink]] and [[TrueBlueFemininity baby blue]], being a graceful LadyOfWar, and has a love of [[FriendToAllLivingThings animals]] and sparkly things. However, she's also a very competent fighter and is later able to hold her own as a Paladin of Voltron, and had trouble handling Coran when he de-ages because she dislikes children.

* CloningBlues: Poor guy ends up being a puppet of Haggar and then his body is used as a vessel to get the real Shiro back. Poor guy.

* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Allura demonstrates a significant number of stereotypical feminine qualities, such as a love of sparkly things. However, she's also a very competent fighter and is later able to hold her own as a Paladin of Voltron.

* AnythingThatMoves: As long as it's on two legs and female, Lance will hit on it. What can we say? He's a lover, not a fighter. This sometimes gets him [[DistractedByTheSexy in trouble]], especially with people like [[HoneyTrap Nyma]].

* NobleSavage: With a critical eye Allura has elements of this and other magical native tropes in an SFF manner. For example her role around Keith in season two, where the story centers her having to go to Keith and reach a higher ground with him (and we never get her own backstory with the Galra aside from a moment at the beginning, and instead the focus is on her father throughout the seasons). Furthermore she's portrayed as a mystical being who noticeably sacrifices her own needs in later seasons.

* NaginatasAreFeminine: Her Bayard weapon takes the form of a BladeOnAStick in season 8, and fittingly she has the most ladylike fighting style.

* MrFanservice: [This compilation says it all]

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: While the rest of the team may bicker with each other, they all deeply admire and respect Shiro. Season 4 lampshades this with Coran stating that he's the most popular Paladin among the allied Coalition.

* ManlyGay: He's not MachoCamp by any means, but he's an extremely skilled fighter and very fit, heavily muscled, and masculine looking, as well as being responsible for a decent amount of the show's fanservice centered on these aspects.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Seconds after Allura wakes up from a 10,000 year long cryosleep, she's immediately putting a smooth-talking Lance into submission and demanding to know who he is.

* FantasticRacism: She has difficulty trusting the Blade of Marmora due to this, even after the likes of Ulaz proving his sincerity by sacrificing himself for Voltron. She also becomes cold toward Keith when she learns that he is part-Galra. However, it is {{Justified}} by the fact that the Galra ''killed all of her people''. Growing over this to work with the Blade of Marmora and admit to Keith that he's FamilyOfChoice, regardless of his blood, is part of her CharacterDevelopment, and she apologizes to Keith specifically for any hurt her attitude caused.

* WhipItGood: When wielded by her, the Blue Bayard transforms into an energy whip that can behave like RazorFloss.

* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She says that she needs to portray strength so the others don't worry about their mission.

* FiveManBand: Played with. The [[Anime/{{Voltron}} original show's]] main roster (one of the {{Trope Codifier}}s) is done in Season 3, casting Keith as the reluctant [[TheLeader leader]], Lance becoming TheLancer as his right-hand-man and {{Foil}}, Hunk and Pidge keeping their roles as TheBigGuy and TheSmartGuy respectively, and Allura joining the fighting force as TheChick as she continues to maintain order throughout the team and learns how to be a Paladin. However, this configuration doesn't stick, nor do they remain a team of five when they do take it up again in Season 7.

* TheTeam: [[BigThinShortTrio Hunk, Lance, and Pidge]] were part of the same unit at the academy. When they sneak out to investigate the crash, [[ThreePlusTwo they meet Keith as they rescue Shiro]] and the Blue Lion takes them to Arus, where they awaken Allura and Coran. The two Alteans teach the five pilots to work as a team, and they all bond together to form Voltron and defend the universe. Shiro becomes TeamDad and TheLeader. Keith and Lance form a [[RedOniBlueOni rivalry]] for the "{{Lancer}}" role where the former is [[AcePilot an Ace]] IneffectualLoner and the latter is a GloryHound CasanovaWannabe. Pidge is TheSmartGuy, Hunk the BigGuy, Allura is TheChick and BigGood, and Coran is her OldRetainer.

* TheChick: She is the feminine emotional support and moral center of the team.

* TheHeart: In "A New Defender", Lance calls her the heart of Voltron.

** A more hilarious example happened when he has to transport Slav, whose SuperOCD and constant rambling about alternate realities seriously annoy him. (Of course this could have just been stress and panic leaking through at the prospect of being in a Galra prison again.)
