--> '''Roddy''': ...that wasn't on the list.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: If it weren’t for him, Roddy would have never ended up in the sewers.

* InnocentBystander: Roddy TRIES to paint himself as one, saying the exact words. Unfortunately, everyone else [[{{Mondegreen}} thought he was introducing himself as "Millicent Bystander"]].

* AffablyEvil: Compared to Toad, Le Frog is much more civil towards Rita and Roddy.

* PunchClockVillain: He and Whitey are only working for Toad to pay the bills. Once Toad is defeated, they seem to have stopped being evil all together.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's pretty tough as nails, but she cares and does everything for her family. Not to mention she doesn't go back on a deal.

* {{Acrofatic}}: He's a toad, so being agile and fat is a given.

* {{Expy}}: An arrogant, pompous toad named "Toad" who happens to be wealthy. He's basically an evil Mr. Toad From Literature/TheWindInTheWillows.

* MusclesAreMeaningless [=/=] StoutStrength: Has skinny arms and is undeniably fat, but is also the strongest character in the movie.

* WickedCultured: If his layer has anything to say about it. Makes sense given his wealthy origins and trying to recreate it to the best of his abilities.

* AdvertisedExtra: Despite being the film's secondary antagonist, he only appears about less than 25 minutes of screen time.

* FrenchJerk [=/=] GreenAndMean: A frog, rude to everybody, arrogant and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking is French]]. Lampshaded in the movie.

* NationalStereotypes: Of France; he's rude, dislikes the British, a ''frog'', drinks coffee and is voiced by Creator/JeanReno.

* BigGuyLittleGuy: The Little to Whitey's Big

* HourglassPlot: The movie begins with Sid, a thuggish sewer rat, invading the wimpy Roddy's home and makes a total pushover out of him. Following his experiences down the sewers, Roddy returns as a hardened, bitter rat with a foul temper and a commanding personality, whereas Sid's time at living the luxurious lifestyle has rubbed the edge out of him and he's reduced to being an even bigger wimp than Roddy used to be, with the latter ''now'' pushing Sid around.

* {{Deuteragonist}}: The story doesn't get interesting until she shows up.

* HeelFaceTurn: At the DancePartyEnding of the film, it is revealed that they turned against the Toad and Le Frog after Roddy and Rita defeated them and changed from bad to good.

* PunchClockVillain: They're only working for Toad to pay the bills. Once Toad is defeated, they seem to have stopped being evil all together.

* AdvertisedExtra: Appeared in quite a lot of trailers and posters, but in the end he only appears in the movie itself a select few times.

* PunchClockVillain: While he's not exactly a great guy himself, Le Frog is clearly not as ruthless or obsessed with the devastation of rats as Toad is. He only works with him because he's family.

'''Le Frog's Men''': *Raise their arms* "''We surrender''!"\\

--> '''Rita''': "There's a paperclip in my back pocket. See if you can get it. *shrieks* In the pocket! '''The pocket'''!"

--> ''Rita's pants fall slightly''

* ActionSurvivor: Living with an upper class has left Roddy with little to no experience with taking care of himself and isn't as action oriented as Rita. However, he eventually starts to learn how to pull his own weight and becomes more capable by the end of the film. It's ironic seeing how he's voiced by Creator/HughJackman.

* ADogNamedDog: A Toad Named Toad.

* {{Adorkable}}: He likes to show off his collection with giddiness.

* HourglassPlot: The movie begins with Sid, a thuggish sewer rat, invading the wimpy Roddy's home and makes a total pushover out of him. Following his experiences down the sewers, Roddy returns as a hardened, bitter rat with a foul temper and a commanding personality, whereas Sid's time at living the luxurious lifestyle has rubbed the edge out of him and he's reduced to being an even bigger wimp than Roddy used to be, with the latter *now* doing the pushing around.

* RichBastard: He lives a very garnish and classy lifestyle. [[spoiler: Clearly a result of being Prince Charles's old pet.]]

[[folder:Spike and Whitey]]

* BewareTheNiceOnes: He may be full of himself at times and can be a bit of a pushover, but if he's in a bad mood, just ask [[FatBastard Syd]].

* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Displayed perfectly in one scene. Roddy makes Rita optimistic that she'll be able to redeem herself of her poor lifestyle by telling her that he has real minerals stored within a box in his home. Right after she tells her that he'll have to trust his word, Rita spits into her hand for their truce and indicates that he has to spit into his own by saying "You too," which he immediately misinterprets as having to spit into Rita's hand.

* ActionGirl: Dispatches the mooks easily and is good at getting out of trouble. [[note]]While also having to save Roddy's tail on a regular basis.[[/note]]

[[folder:Toad]]

* FantasticRacism: He hates all rats to the point of obsession. [[spoiler: Mostly because his original owner, Prince Charles, had him replaced by a rat and flushed him down the sewers.]]

* BigGuyLittleGuy

* TheBrute: Whitey is the main muscle of Le Frog's men.

* RedOniBlueOni
* ThoseTwoGuys
