History Characters / ChipNDaleRescueRangers

* CloudCuckooLander: Not ''nearly'' to the extent as Dale or Gadget, but Foxglove can at times be a little, well, [[IncrediblyLamePun batty]]. It usually manifests in her simply ''[[AchievementsInIgnorance forgetting]]'' [[AchievementsInIgnorance she's incapable of something]]...and then suffering the consequences when she remembers.

* AllThereInTheManual: The official press kit supplied the fans with information such as one possible official spelling of Lahwhinie's name ([[IncrediblyLamePun namely]] Lahwhinie). The official press kit was not even intended for the public.

* TheHero: While the show may be an ensemble cast, with every member getting ADayInTheLimelight, Chip most fits the trope. He's TheLeader and the one who basically keeps the team functioning, is brave and cool-headed under fire, and even in his worst {{Jerkass}} moments is very seldom [[JerkassHasAPoint completely wrong]]. He's not as strong as Monterey but more than holds his own in a fight, nor as smart as Gadget but is still quite intelligent and clever.
-->'''Dale:''' Hey, Guys! I can lead you; I just need to follow in the footsteps of a true hero!\\
'''Gadget:''' Chip?

* NamedWeapons: In "Le Purrfect Crime", when Dale is the CriminalAmnesiac [[Film/{{Rambo}} RamDale]], he calls his crank-operated coffee bean gun with the drum magazine on his back "The Decaffeinator". Both the gun and its naming are a ShoutOut to "[[GatlingGood Old Painless]]" from ''Film/{{Predator}}'' and to Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger's use of the self-same gun in ''Franchise/{{Terminator}} 2''.

* SimpletonVoice: All of them have variations of it, but Mole in particular, who has your typical FatIdiot voice.

* DarkChick: While the only one who seems to ''genuinely'' view her as TheHeart of the team is Orgo, she nonetheless fills this role as being the only girl, as well as Gadget's {{Foil}}. An unusual example in which she is ''also'' the BigBad of her arc herself.

* LorreLookalike: Wart's voice and design are very similar to Creator/PeterLorre.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Wart's voice is very similar to Creator/PeterLorre.

* WhipItGood:
** Some of Chip's early concept art included a whip, which doesn't actually get used in the show. However he ''does'' often carry around a coil of rope which he uses in much the same manner as Franchise/IndianaJones and his bullwhip, thus evoking the trope.
** At least one cover for the Disney Comics series that ran concurrent with the show's original broadcast depicts Chip with a whip (he's never shown using one in any of the actual stories).

* BadassBaritone: Out of all Rangers, his voice is the most sonorous one (which is kind of by default since the other Rangers are either voiced by a woman, have their voice pitched up, or both). This is more evident when Peter Cullen and Jim Cummings voice him.

* BadassBaritone: Thanks to Peter Cullen.

* BadassBaritone: Charlie, maybe even more than his son Monterey.

* NiceGirl: She's innocent, kindhearted and selfless -- usually. She's beloved by fans not just because she's a GadgeteerGenius, but because she's compassionate enough to uses her skills to fight {{Supervillian}}s while protecting and helping their victims. However, if she's pushed too far, she becomes the personfication of BewareTheNiceOnes.

* NiceGirl: She's innocent, kindhearted and selfless.

* DistressedDamsel: Gadget is captured or kidnapped in a number of episodes. Sometimes she needs a rescue. Other times she has little trouble getting herself ''out'' of danger on her own.

* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: She's the only Ranger with eyelashes, and possesses a luxurious FurryFemaleMane. Her fur is much lighter than the others', and her character is designed to evoke an hourglass figure with a narrow waist and wider hips and chest, suggesting breasts. Her coveralls are lavender instead of the regular blue. If she has to dress up for an occasion, or if she goes to the beach, she wears a flower in her hair. When it's hot outside, she [[BareYourMidriff bares her midriff]] in combination with [[PinkGirlBlueBoy pink]] shorts. Not to mention the infamous [[{{Fanservice}} red dress]].

* BareYourMidriff: Just like his female teammate, he wore a midriff-baring shirt in "Gadget Goes Hawaiian" as part of his beachwear, ironically in one of the few ocasions when he wore pants.

* BareMidriffsAreFeminine: A couple episodes have her in a midriff-baring T-shirt and shorts outfit rather than her usual coveralls. One in which it's an abnormally hot heat wave, and again in "Gadget Goes Hawaiian," where the team is on vacation in tropical Hawaii.
--> '''Gadget:''' Well, not what I'm wearing right now, ''obviously.'' Other things I wear. Well, not all of them. Some of them. Beach things and things.

* BareYourMidriff: A couple episodes have her in a midriff-baring T-shirt and shorts outfit rather than her usual coveralls. One in which it's an abnormally hot heat wave, and again in "Gadget Goes Hawaiian," where the team is on vacation in tropical Hawaii.

* CloudCuckooLander: At times Gadget exists in her own little corner of reality. She suffers from bouts of AttentionDeficitOohShiny with difficulties focusing for any length of time, and frequently doesn't pay much attentions to real-world concerns. As Monty put it, "Gadget's elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor."

* SuperOCD: Chip plans ''everything'', which often leads him to butting heads with Dale and Monterey — as well as Monty's father — over their preference for simply winging it. It notably leads to a conflict with Dale in "Shell Shocked," when Chip has their ''entire vacation'' planned down to the minute.

* JerkassHasAPoint: While Chip ''can'' overreact when he loses his cool, especially with Dale, many times he's not exactly ''wrong'', either. For example in "Adventures in Squirrel Sitting," Tammy's PrecociousCrush on Chip often put her and her sister harms' way, and directly interfered with the team's attempts to solve the case at several points.

* JerkassHasAPoint: While Chip ''can'' overreact when he loses his temper, especially with Dale, many times he's not exactly ''wrong'', either. For example in "Adventures in Squirrel Sitting," Tammy's PrecociousCrush on Chip often put her and her sister harms' way, and directly interfered with the team's attempts to solve the case at several points.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's usually the one with the bad attitude, and can be impatient and short-tempered. However he nonetheless cares deeply for his friends and the well-being of others, and when it comes down to it will ultimately always try to do the right thing ''because'' it's the right thing.

* MotorMouth: When he and Dale ''really'' get into it, he begins to speak quickly, and his voice gets even ''higher''-pitched. Doubles as a MythologyGag; he basically begins talking like he and Dale did in the classic shorts.

* NotSoAboveItAll: As serious as Chip can be, he has his moments. He'll chastise Dale over his obsession with horror movies one episode, and then will geek out when he realizes a case has brought him to the home of his favorite mystery writer the next. He's also not above hitting back at Dale if Dale pulls a prank on him, or even playing things dirty if Gadget is involved.

* FriendlyPirate{{s}}: They are pretty nice people, until they think someone is after their treasure.

* SpearCounterpart: To Gadget, in a lot of ways. Both are CloudCuckooLander AbsentMindedProfessor{{s}} who are ObliviousToLove. However while Gadget is this as a result of simply being Gadget, in Sparky's case it owes a lot to the amount of voltage he's absorbed.

* OffModel: The artists and animators can't even keep her hair color consistent in one ''episode''.

* [[OneManArmy One-Mouse Army]]: What she turns into when pushed too far, armored vehicles and advanced weaponry (for rodents anyway) optional, but to be expected.

* NoPronunciationGuide:
** The Latin American Spanish dub, who was dubbed in Mexico, pronounce his name as ''Monterrey'' Jack, after the Mexican city of the same name, since the voice actors didn't get the memo about ''Monterey'' is named after a brand of cheese. To be fair, that brand of cheese is obscure in Mexico and many Latin American countries.
** Strangely enough, in the Japanese dub, his name is pronounced and spelled as ''Montarii'' Jack (モンタリー・ジャック), despite the cheese itself is spelled in Japanese as モントレー・ジャック, very likely because the voice actors tried to pronounce his name using [[GratuitousEnglish pseudo-English phonetics]] instead, and, like the Latin American case, the cheese itself wasn't very well-known in Japan at the time.

* HotScientist: At least as far as Gadget is concerned.
