* CurbStompBattle: Unlike the Dodgeball Monks and Joey, who at least put up a fight, Numbuh 4 is dispatched easily. The Dodgeball Wizard is even briefly annoyed that the supposed champion was that easy to defeat.

* VillainBall: No pun intended. The Dodgeball Wizard didn't need to trash Numbuh 4's house and kidnap his family to get to him. Given his MilesGloriosus nature, Numbuh 4 would've gladly taken him on had he just asked. It's not like he would be hard to find, as the Dodgeball Wizard somehow already knew where Numbuh 4 lived.
