dewicked Belly Dancer


** BellyDancer: Well, the outfits match that description, but they use maracas. They use said maracas to control a dancing genie, who can dance to distract enemies and go through lamps to reach spaces otherwise unreachable.

* DubNameChange: A odd case in that all the members had their names changed three times in the US. In ''Ape Escape 2'', they were referred to as their color first, then "Monkey" last, in ''Ape Escape 3'', this was swapped around, and in ''Ape Escape Academy'', they were referred to by their Japanese names (example: Blue Monkey in ''2'', Monkey Blue in ''3'', and Ukki Blue in ''Academy'').

Not true. Female "common" monkeys do exist.

the largely gender-neutral appearance of monkeys as a whole. Whilst most are gender-neutral, some (especially in the third game) have female names and wear women's clothes, heavily implying there are many females amongst the "common" monkeys that monkeys.

* EvilDiva: Possibly the crowning example.

to:

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Some players have compared her to a monkey version of [[Literature/{{Carrie}} Carrie White]] for a reason. As soon as she feels slighted, people get ''hurt''.
* EvilDiva: Possibly the crowning example. The cuteness is a facade; when she gets angry, she will destroy ''anything'' she blames for said anger.


Added DiffLines:

* MindOverMatter: Her primary form of attack is telekinesis, and she's also able to levitate. In the third game, she almost never touches the ground.


Added DiffLines:

* PsychoElectro: In the second game, her main attack is launching fields of electricity.
