* DemotedToExtra: Of a sort - the members of the Fearsome Five are a lot less prominent in the series, being more or less henchmen to Negaduck's growing empire than a team of mostly equally prominent supervillain with a particularly BadBoss. With the exception of the rare focus episodes that don't feature them doing Negaduck's bidding, most of them get much less prominence than they had in the show. Quackerjack barely features at all.

Added DiffLines:

* MirrorMoralityMachine: S.H.U.S.H. creates a devise similar to Megavolt's Tron Splitter (which can separate people into good and evil doubles), except it instead changes people from evil to good (or vice versa). It takes Darkwing himself getting adversely effected before they realize it's a bad idea.
* MythologyGag: Similar to Negaduck, Negawing Duck starts out as a [[MirrorMoralityMachine mirror morality'd Darkwing]] before being reimagined and reintroduced as a separate character from an AlternateUniverse

* BerserkButton: Like always, harming Gosalyn for Drake.
** Calling Rowe "mate," though it's very minor.
** Chapter 69, "Death Of A Friend," involves doing this to the normally [[OnlySaneMan extremely even tempered]] Honker to the point where he totally snaps [[spoiler: and becomes terrifyingly violent.]] The result is quite tragic.


Added DiffLines:

* TheInfiltration: Darkwing and Honker go undercover into an organized gang in order to figure out their connection to Steelbeak. Though the plan works without a hitch, they unfortunately use their real names - which comes back to bite them when S.H.U.S.H. is unable to stop the gang from getting revenge.

* FountainOfYouth: This is revealed to be a side-effect of the super-energy source from the FiveEpisodePilot of [[spoiler: Talespin.]] The downside is if used this way it becomes extremely addictive, and those separated from it undergo RapidAging [[NoImmortalInertia to the age they are supposed to be.]]

** Also, this happened to Darkwing once by way of having his tron's reversed. The end result - a pure evil Darkwing - is... scary.
* CatchPhrase: Gosalyn's CatchPhrase "Keen Gear" becomes a plot point in "Darkwing Duck Returns." In "The New Adventures" she gains an "I am the terror"-like catchphrase as well.
** Rowe has "I ain't your mate," which usually happens after he calls someone [[HypocriticalHumor "mate."]]



* TheConfidant: Honker to Gosalyn, even before he becomes her sidekick.



* EarlyBirdCameo: Thanks to TimeTravel, [[spoiler: Gigavolt]] appears being chased by Gosalyn's future self long before his actual origin episode in the series.
* EmbarrassingMiddleName: In order to explain why Launchpad always calls him "DW," Drake is given the embarassing middle name of "Wilberforth," which not even Gosalyn knew.



* GadgeteerGenius: Honker eventually grows into one of these.



* LiteralSplitPersonality: The Tron Splitter splits people into good and evil versions of themselves. [[spoiler: When Megavolt uses it on himself, it creates the even more dangerous Gigavolt.]]

Added DiffLines:

* OperationJealousy: Gosalyn's former friend Jax is fond of trying to cause these between Gosalyn and Honker.


Added DiffLines:

* TheReliableOne: Honker, to the point where situations where he's not constantly acting in everyone's best interest [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness are cause for alarm.]]


Added DiffLines:

* RunningGag: Gosalyn constantly causing Charlie "Chuck," and ignoring him when he corrects her.
** Jax always getting punched in the face whenever she appears.


Added DiffLines:

* VerbalTic: Rowe has a habit of ending his sentences with "-mate." Ironically, people doing the same thing to him is a BerserkButton of his.

* AdaptiveAbility: The Teryx, as a reference to the Borg. Nanite, as well, has the ability to reproduce any weapon he incorporates.



* AntiHero: Negawing! Gosalyn, who is on the side of right but is as sociopathic, conniving and violent as the rest of the people from her universe.



* BrainwashedAndCrazy / TykeBomb: Nega-Gosalyn by Negaduck, as her Negaverse version was originally even nicer than Darkwing's Gosalyn. Negaduck ends up doing this to her ''again'' [[spoiler: after her death.]]



* HeelFaceTurn: The Elements, though only after losing their memories. [[spoiler: Megavolt, Nega-Gosalyn (twice), and apparently the Dark Avenger.]]



* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The Elements end up losing their memories after their power runs dry. Also, Megavolt has been losing memories for years, though he ultimately accidentally fixes that.



* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:The Liquidator, of all people, suffers from this after pushing Negaduck too far]]. In addition, there's [[spoiler: Darkwarrior Duck, Bob (Morgana's husband), a bunch of named characters from alternate universes, and Nega-Gosalyn (though she got better)]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Negaduck]], though it takes a while before he really makes his move.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: The Neutraverse appears this way to our heroes - because Neutraduck is void of good or evil, the result is someone totally apathetic to others and downright sociopathic. His morality is judged by how far from neutral a universe is, and how likely they are to interfere in other universes.



* {{Crossover}}: Three with Ducktales, and later a fairly epic one with [[spoiler: TaleSpin]]

* HappilyAdopted: A little boy named Charlie Charlie, by Darkwing's new love interest Christine.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: "I am the terror..." naturally, but there's also Gosalyn's new intro as the Crimson Avenger - "I am the heir to the cape! I am _______. I am... the Crimson Avenger!"
