Western Animation N-Z - Television Tropes & Idioms

Can you guess which is which?

The Five-Man Band is a group of characters whose members fall into archetypes which all complement one another. They are a very specific team with skills that contribute to the group in a unique way. Here are some places where the trope occurs in animation:

The Next Avengers

The Hero	James (The Quiet One, actually.)
The Lancer	Hawkeye (Clashes with James just as much as the original Hawkeye did with Captain America.)
The Smart Guy	Azari (Unlike most other examples, Azari's a self-righteous know-it-all who isn't always right.)
The Big Guy	Torunn (She's Thor's daughter, after all... but her emotional volatility is a huge obstacle for her to overcome.)
The Chick	Pym (Despite being the group's techie and being able to grow to giant size, Pym's way too unfocused to function as either a smart guy or a big guy properly. He's also th one least suited to direct physical confrontation.)

The Mentor	Master Fung
Sixth Ranger	Jermaine (also another Token Minority; only two episodes)

X-Men: Evolution: The main characters

The Hero	Scott Summers/Cyclops
The Lancer	Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler
The Smart Guy	Kitty Pride/Shadowcat (She's pictured as a bit of a brainiac sometimes. She's also a Valley Girl initially, and this compounded with her mainly defensive powers may give her shades of The Chick, too.)
The Big Guy	Evan Daniels/Spyke (He's not the strongest but he's the most reckless and prone to violence so he's more of a Boisterous Bruiser.)
The Chick	Jean Grey (She's also the Cool Big Sis.)
The Brotherhood Chick(s)	Anna Marie/Rouge, Tabitha Smith/Boom-Boom, and Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch
Sixth Ranger	Anna Marie/Rogue (after her Heel Face Turn.)
Mentor Archetype(s)	Charles Xavier/Professor X, Logan/Wolverine, Ororo Munroe/Storm, and later Hank McCoy/Beast
