!!This special contains examples of:
* AdaptationalHeroism: The toyline had Poison Ivy be a villain who tried to make everyone itch, while in the cartoon she's a mischievous TricksterMentor who helps the heroes.
* HeelFaceTurn: Subverted. It ''looks'' like Dragonweed and his cronies will turn good when the Charmkins bring color and light to Thistledown, with Dragonweed even shedding a tear... but as soon as the song ends he and his goons try to recapture the kids.
* NothingIsScarier: Whatever Dragonweed's "or else" threat is, he doesn't outright state what he'll do, instead getting a whole villain song about things he ''could'' do.
* StoryBreakerPower: Poison Ivy's magic could solve the plot quickly, but she won't help the heroes directly because it'd be too easy.
* TricksterMentor: Poison Ivy poses as a dragon to scare the heroes and uses her shapeshifting magic to turn each of them into things they're not, which eventually clues them in that they need a disguise.
* VillainyFreeVillain: Dragonweed and his gang don't really do anything evil and seem content to live in Thistledown, don't invite the Charmkins to parties or ''get'' invited to parties, and even their kidnapping attempt is done by proxy via the river.
