* ClarkKenting: Played with; Hartley does think there's something familiar-looking about Amy even without her costume and mask (as Havoc was a publicly recognized supervillain), although she doesn't make the connection until Amy uses her power to destroy a boulder that was coming towards them.

* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Havoc's defeat by Starling sometime not long before the start of the series, with the expression on her face afterwards becoming an internet meme spread with mocking captions by Jake and Hartley, among others. It's also why Onyx declined to give her mother Surge the promotion.

* RedRightHand: In their villain identities, Amy/Havoc and Eva/Surge's hair was dyed red and green respectively, matching their costumes, and Jake/Chaos had a white skunk stripe in his hair. In Valley View, their hair is normal. Also, Vic as Kraniac has a totally unnecessary evil eyepiece on his left eye.

** Eva literally tells Amy repeatedly to PetTheDog when she returns home with a dog on a leash (apparently having bought a TeamPet, but it turns into Colby - he's just gotten his power and they've been playing tricks on people all day).

* BlackmailIsSuchAnUglyWord: The second episode involves the Maddens trying to blackmail Hartley into being a good little SecretKeeper, with Eva and Colby looking for dirt on her while Amy and Vic compete against each other to frame her for something. Only Jake doesn't think there's any need, but Vic gets him to help him by holding his A in Science hostage. Ultimately it turns out to be BlackmailBackfire, as Hartley was sincere when she said had no intention of exposing them, but now she'll use the threat to make them cooperate.

* BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: The attitude of all the Maddens except Jake. Amy especially starts off not caring much about keeping her villainous instincts under wraps, and while her parents and Colby are more subtle they'd also rather not have to pretend to be nice. In particular, Eva and Vic are ''disappointed'' rather than proud when Jake is the running to be [[ClassRepresentative Student of the Month]].

!!This show provides examples of:

* BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: The attitude of all the Maddens except Jake. Amy especially starts off not caring much about keeping her villainous instincts under wraps, and while her parents and Colby are more subtle they'd also rather not have to pretend to be nice. In particular, Eva and Vic are ''disappointed'' rather than proud when Jake is the running to be [[ClassRepresentative Student of the Month]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: As Jake lampshades, for someone who doesn't like blackmail, Hartley is surprisingly good at it.
* DitzyGenius: Vic at times. For example, he was proud of making the two-way dimensional transporter an exact external replica of the one-way transporter, until Amy pointed out that made it impossible to tell which was the right one.
* GenkiGirl: Hartley is a perpetually sunny girl (who's literally in the Sunshine Club) who takes it upon herself to be the villainous Amy's friend and good influence.
* GeniusBruiser: With SuperStrength being his power, you might expect Jake to be DumbMuscle, but in fact he seems to be almost as smart as his father. His project for science class was a green energy source that powered the school for days.
* MadScientist: Vic is an evil scientist and inventor whose power is apparently SuperIntelligence.
* PsychoElectro: Eva has the power to generate electric surges and was one of two candidates for a promotion to be field commander of Onyx's evil legions.
* WhiteSheep: Amy's older brother Jake is the only member of the family who adjusts well to ordinary life and repeatedly insists that he's made a HeelFaceTurn, quickly getting the approval of all his teachers and becoming Student of the Month after less than a month at school, while cautioning the rest of his family not to expose themselves by using their powers or engaging in mischief. They fast come to see him as a drag.
* YouAreNumberSix: Before the family moved to Valley View, Colby was referred to only as "Number Three" because he hadn't manifested his VoluntaryShapeshifting power yet.
