* MaskedLuchador: Loco Libre, the mascot of ''Rabbids Rumble'', definitely counts as one.

** The Rabbids as characters have had quite a development from their early days til present time. Early on the Rabbids were emphasized as being incredible dancers which, while occasionally seen, has been downplayed immensely in later installments. They were also outright evil/malicious characters with anger problems, whilst less so later on, being more stupid and/or mean in their demeanor. Come the ''VideoGame/MarioPlusRabbidsKingdomBattle'' spinoff, and they outright help Mario defeat corrupted Rabbids and restore peace in the Mushroom Kingdom, essentially being the good guys.

* GeniusDitz: The Rabbids suck at everything except dancing.

* HairRaisingHare: the Raving Rabbids themselves (though probably they weren't intended to be scary.)

** The Rabbids have been known to break the fourth wall on numerous occasions. Most notably in the intro to Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, where a Rabbid takes out a copy of the first Raving Rabbids game to confirm his suspiscions on Rayman's identity.

* ''Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time'': Wii, Nintendo 3DS

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In early games, the rabbids were evil, AxCrazy, TooDumbToLive, and they just messed with Rayman to entertain them. In later works (especially in ''VideoGame/RabbidsGoHome'' and ''WesternAnimation/RabbidsInvasion''), they're still TooDumbToLive, but more in the {{Cloudcuckoolander}} sense. They also don't break havoc with malicious intent; [[ChaoticStupid they just do what they feel like doing]], and while they're still a bit aggressive, it's less prominent and they seem a lot calmer. Their talent for dancing has been toned down since their first spin-off game.

* {{Expy}}: The Minions from ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' are possibly inspired by the Rabbids.

* CatchPhrase: "DAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" [[note]]also BWAAAAAAAAHHHHH![[/note]]. Actually more of a Catch Yell.

''Raving Rabbids'' is a video game series published by [[Creator/{{Ubisoft}} Ubisoft Entertainment]]. It was originally a spinoff [[MinigameGame minigame-centric series]] based on ''Franchise/{{Rayman}}'', but [[MorePopularSpinoff its popularity quickly escalated to surpass that of Rayman himself]]. It later became its own standalone franchise starting with ''VideoGame/RabbidsGoHome''.

* ShmuckBait: The latest game gives instructions ONLY in this form. It warns you not to do things, then presents you with how to do them via an illustration.

The first game in the series is entitled ''Rayman Raving Rabbids''. In this first installment, the [[FloatingLimbs limbless hero]] Rayman was captured by the Rabbids and forced to participate in various absurd mini-games in a gladiator-style arena to entertain the moronic bunny masses. As you progress through the game, Rayman uses the plungers he receives as rewards for completing minigames ([[ItMakesSenseInContext It makes sense in...]] [[AvertedTrope Wait…]] [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext no, it doesn't make sense at all!]]) to build a makeshift ladder and escape through a high window. Even though he escapes, the game still has a rather silly DownerEnding, as Rayman realizes afterwards that he forgot to rescue the baby Globoxes imprisoned by the Rabbids. And then he got stuck in a hole.
