* BaitAndSwitchCharacterIntro: The Pulverizer makes his first appearance attempting to stop the Purple Dragons' robbery, gives a good BadassBoast that impresses the turtles, and seems ready to give the former a beatdown... only to stand in place [[WhatTheFuAreYouDoing ineffectually punch and kick the air]], allowing the Purple Dragons to [[CurbStompBattle easily gang up on and overwhelm him]], revealing that he's actually a HeroicWannabe who is in over his head and has no real combat training or experience.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Xever's venom acts more like an overdose of mushrooms or hallucinogens than actual venom. Of course, the effects of real venom delivered via bite range from [[BodyHorror digestion of muscle tissue (myotoxic) to paralysis of the nervous system (neurotoxic) to the breakdown of blood vessels causing hemorrhaging (hemotoxic)]], so those would be a little too graphic for a cartoon. The alternative, venom delivered by spines in the fins which causes incredible pain, isn't much better. The instant antidote Donnie cooks up also fits here, since real antivenin requires the venom itself to create antibodies to it via injecting small doses into horses over a few weeks until they build an immunity to it.
