Added DiffLines:

* GiverOfLameNames: Averted.
** Giovanni is accused of this at his party when he describes what his new drugs do, and are named. He defends it by saying that "Super Potion" and "Burn Heal" might not be the most scientific of names, but they tell exactly what it's supposed to do. Also, unbeknownst to all but a few, he didn't name them.
** Mahmoud defends himself to Pele when she accuses him of giving Magcargo a name that combines "Magma" and "Escargot." Specifically, he points out that ''he'' didn't come up with said name.


Added DiffLines:

* ProperlyParanoid: Mahmoud takes his privacy and security very seriously, relying on teleportation and telepathy to dissuade others from following him into his base of operations. He does state that it's because he's in the DC Universe and therefore that level of paranoia is needed if he doesn't want things bursting in on him when he's not aware, but Aquaman verbally compares him to Batman when he hears about the loops Kahu jumps through.

* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: When Slugma evolves, due to her getting a gift from Pele and native conditions of Earth-16, she evolves into a Magcargo that looks significantly different from typical Magcargo. Giovanni and Mahmoud identify it as a regional form.



* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Giovanni, when talking about why he hired Orca, points out that yes, her treatment turned her into an Orca[=/=]human hybrid, which is not a desirable trait (in theory, anyway). However, it turned her into an Orca[=/=]human hybrid that is no longer paralyzed from the waist down, which is why he's hiring her to help her get the funding and equipment she needs to cure people of injuries without those side effects.



* CutLexLuthorACheck: Giovanni has this motivation. He figures the best way to get power on Earth 16 is through money, and lots of it. He does so through apparently legitimate means given how he doesn't view the risk of getting tangled with superheroes worth it. He's started making Potions from the Pokemon world and selling them to hospitals, with him announcing that he was also making other Pokemon cures at a gala on his yacht- such as Super Potions, Burn Heals, and more.

In addition, he's funding other medical treatments, such as sponsoring Orca's experiments to help cure spinal problems.


Added DiffLines:

* NormalFishInATinyPond: Pokemon world medicine is laughably, hilariously overpowered compared to the state of the art drugs of Earth-16, which is why Giovanni goes into the medical field to make his fortune.


Added DiffLines:

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: Part of the reason why Hawaiian authorities want superheroes to stay away from Hawaii is that they both draw in other super-beings, but also because the Silicon Dragons will escalate to meet the threats lobbed against them- if League-level heroes started showing up, the Dragons would get ''far'' too dangerous for law enforcement to handle. It's why Mahmoud asks that Aquaman and Aqualad not stick around to fight the Dragons, since they would escalate from the force needed to fight a "D-Grade" hero (in Mahmoud's own words) to fight an A-grade one.

* AdaptationalJerkass:
** In comparison to the Adorable Murderbeasts incarnation, Mahmoud is much colder and quicker to anger than his pre-reboot version.
** Again in comparison to her pre-reboot Adorable Murderbeasts version, where she was a member of the Team and a love interest for Mahmoud, Pele is truer to her traditional mythologies here, being colder, angrier, and willing to threaten terrible fates on people who displease her.

** Averted InUniverse with Grace and the Atlanteans. Part of the reason Aquaman and Aqualad show up in Hawaii initially is because they heard rumors of an Orca-Atlantean swimming in the waters around the islands from the local wildlife, and wanted to see if such was true. While Grace ''did'' use data on Atlanteans with animal-forms as part of her research, she's purely from human science.

She also has this effect on virtually anyone who sees her true form, as multiple criminals can attest to (once they stop gibbering in fear).

* PersonOfMassConstruction: Gurdurr is the bruiser of the team, making use of his fighting moves and his steel girder to fight and deal a lot of damage. It's noted that this is odd for Gurdurr to be like this one; the Gurdurr in this story actually does like building and construction, whereas most Gurdurr tend towards more destructive natures.


Added DiffLines:

** The Silicon Dragons deliberately invoke this via their code of honor. They limit themselves to the level of force that their opponent brings out- against regular police, their thugs might be armed with standard pistols and knives, while [=SWAT=] or army forces might get them to break out body armor and assault rifles. Bringing in metahumans and extranormal forces, though, will likewise get them to bring in other metahumans and extranormal forces specifically to deal with the threat. One concern that Kahu has about Aquaman interfering is that the Silicon Dragons would upgrade to face Aquaman, member of the Justice League and known A-Grade threat to criminals, while Kahu is, in his own words, a D-Grade superhero.

Added DiffLines:

* WeirdnessMagnet: Why Sam doesn't want vigilantes or superheroes running around Hawaii, ultimately, is because Superheroes draw in weirdness. Case in point, since Kahu started operating in the islands, not only have the Silicon Dragons dramatically upgunned themselves, but multiple other powered individuals started showing up, such as Orca, Smiley, Bebop, Rocksteady, and Killer Frost.

* PragmaticVillainy: How Giovanni operates. When he got to Earth-16, he realized that he was massively outclassed by the forces of Good that he decided against doing anything "Supervillainous." He's still sketchy, and it's hinted that he's charging way more for Potions than is ethical, but he knows if he tries to pull the same sort of stunts he did with Team Rainbow Rocket, it would draw the attention of the Justice League, which he can't hope to face.
