History Characters / PokemonBattleRoyale

* ButtMonkey: Nothing ever goes right for it in any of its appearances. To date, it has been partially melted alive by Charizard, [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impaled by Mega Aggron]], and sunk by Gigantamax Drednaw and later used as a weapon by Gigantamax Machamp.

* GunsAreWorthless: In the Mega Battle Royale, Blastoise dramatically rolls onto scene, lowers itself into position, unveils its three cannons... and then fires a WaveMotionGun from its ''forehead'', in a reference to its awkward attack animations ingame.

* FingerGun: It's what it uses in game, but it's taken literally here, as it uses a literal sniper rifle that's attached to its finger.

! The Real World

[[folder:Professor Lockstin]]
* AuthorAvatar: Of Lockstin from WebVideo/{{Gnoggin}}.
* MediumAwareness: He's aware of the popup links on youtube videos, including where they are and when they disappear. It's only him who has this power, though.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: He nervously states that Mega Evolution doesn't exist to placate the Men in Black.
* RunningGag: He points out the link to his analysis videos in every video, which tends to confuse others around him.
* TheWatson: For himself, oddly enough. He always brings up the most valid questions about the simulations that he himself answers in the connected analysis video.

[[folder:Sudowoodo]]
* AmbiguouslyEvil: Whether it wants to log into the storage system to ''help'' the three escaping Pokémon or ''stop'' them, it's hard to tell. Whatever its motivations, what Mawile, Banette, and Baby Kangashkan are doing doesn't sit well with it.
* OhCrap: It has a panicked look on its face as it watches Mawile, Banette, and Baby Kangashkan slowly climb their way through the storage boxes, compounded by the fact that it doesn't know Professor Oak's password to stop them.
* OneSteveLimit: While a Sudowoodo has definitely participated in the first battle royale, this isn't that Sudowoodo. This one exists in the real world as an assistant to the researchers.

[[folder:Snugooi]]
* CompanyCrossReferences: Snugooi is not a canon Pokémon, but a fanmade one for Gnoggin's "WebVideo/PokemonLegendsNeoGhetsis" series.
* ShoulderPet: Crawls up on Professor Lockstin's shoulder.

* TimeStandsStill: Dialga tries this on Necrozma. It didn't quite work.

* PyrrhicVictory: [[spoiler:It only barely survives the battle, thanks to Kartana slicing its stinger in two and subsequently blowing itself and Naganadel up.]]

* SdrawkcabSpeech: Like in the anime, it's actually speaking English, but in reverse.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Despite its small size, anything falling from the heights it jumps to would be able to kill whatever it hits on the way down. It kills Alakazam and Dusknoir this way. [[spoiler:And it's how it dies, too.]]

* ButtMonkey: Nothing ever goes right for it in any of its appearances. To date, it has been partially melted alive by Charizard, impaled by Mega Aggron, and sunk by Gigantamax Drednaw and later used as a weapon by Gigantamax Machamp.
* DefiantToTheEnd: When impaled through the chest by Aggron, it manages to struggle for a few seconds against the steel type before it dies.

* AdaptationalJerkass: Gardevoirs are normally empathetic and kind Pokémon in the source material, but here it is far more ruthless. Its response to Gallade trying to defend it from Garchomp is to toss ''both'' into a black hole.

* OhCrap: Has quite the moment when it finds itself unable to dismiss the black hole it created [[FromBadToWorse and then realises that Gengar is inside]].
* OnlySaneWoman: In the Mega Pokémon Battle Royale, it's this compared to Gallade, while Gallade tried to invoke LadyAndKnight against Garchomp, Gardevoir has none of it and simply takes both of them out with a black hole.

* AdaptationalBadass: Turns out that being hotter than the surface of the sun is a lot more lethal than the Pokédex thinks it is. Although according to Lockstin, the temperature of the Pokémon itself is not the threat, unless one stood right next to it. It's the energy release from coming out of the Poké Ball that allows it to wipe out pretty much every Pokemon on the island.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: It was taken out of the battle by Wobbuffet mirror coating the explosion right back at it, twice as strong.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Anything that is as hot as Magcargo would probably be outputting a lot of energy. And when you combine it with the fact that releasing it from a Pokeball involves the ''release'' of energy and, well, you get StuffBlowingUp in snail form.

* AdaptationalBadass: In the games, its Dark/Rock typing means a simple fighting type attack can take it down with ease. In here, though, its Pokédex entry's claim of being immune to attack is taken into account, letting it shrug off anything the opposition dishes out.

* HeroicSacrifice: It willingly self-destructs itself in order to defeat Camerupt.

* AssShove: Implied to be what did it in the first battle royale, considering its expression before fading to reveal Dugtrio in its place.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Its specialty. Most of the deaths it causes are some form of dragging its opponents into hell or an alternate reality.

* WouldHurtAChild: It has no issue kidnapping Kangashkan's child. [[{{Irony}} Though it may have actually ''saved'' the child in the long run.]]

* PersonOfMassDestruction: Its ability to cause 40 day storms with a flap of its wings is only the beginning of the amount of chaos the legendaries cause on the planet, creating hurricanes that engulf half of it.

* SkewedPriorities: It is more interested in eating its meteor cake than whatever is going on back on earth, and only really participates when said cake is destroyed.

* BoringButPractical: [[spoiler:How Riolu wins, as unlike nearly every other baby Pokemon, Riolu's Pokedex entry only describes its physical aptitude and ''doesn't'' speak of any weaknesses, unlike some Pokemon such as Pichu. As such, Riolu had little holding it back.]]

* BadassNormal: Compared to all other Mega Pokemon, the only advantage it gets is the ability to lift more weight. It uses that remarkably effectively, Seismic Tossing [[OlympusMons Mewtwo]], [[NighInvulnerable Tyranitar]], and two other Pokemon into the outer atmosphere and killing them.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Its decision to throw a group of Megas into space ended up getting the Rayquaza to finally intervene in the Mega Royale [[spoiler:and wipe out every remaining Pokemon]].

* AscendedExtra: They're Gengar's victims in the ''Mega Pokemon Battle Royale'', but the stinger in Gigantamax Pokemon Battle Royale implies they will be playing a greater role.

* {{Determinator}}: TheStinger for Ultra Beast Battle Royale shows that the three of them are trying to navigate the storage system to escape. It's clear that they have a long, ''long'' way to go, but evident by Sudowoodo's concerned look, that doesn't seem to deter them.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: It doesn't get to participate in the battle, as it's an ''Eternamax'' Pokemon rather than Gigantamax. It still gets credited as being the reason the battle can happen at all, as its presence provides the energy for everyone to access their Gigantamax forms.

* AscendedExtra: It appeared in the first battle royale and the Mega one, but it's here in the Gigantamax battle that it finally gets a section focused on it.

* TheCameo: Appears briefly in ''Legendary Pokemon Battle Royale'' before gaining a bigger role in ''Gigantamax Pokemon Battle Royale.''

* LogicalWeakness: Its giant tail is what gives it the range to attack other Pokemon. [[AttackTheTail Once it is cut]], it topples into the ground.

* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed, it doesn't look any different than its source design, but it is shown wearing a pair of photoshopped red nike sweatpants. They blend in with its design surprisingly well.

* TheGadfly: It enjoys annoying other creatures, and does its best to irk Stakataka. It [[PyrrhicVictory succeeds.]]

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: It neglects to remember that Pheromosa HatesBeingTouched, and its reassuring pats only serve to anger it and kill it in revenge.

* ButtMonkey: Not much goes well for it in the fight. It gets possessed, has its BerserkButton pushed, and it suffers probably the most painful death in the royale, as it has its limbs cut off while still staying alive long enough to be eaten.

* NonMaliciousMonster: As the Pokédex establishes, Nihilego doesn't appear to be sentient. It spends the royale simply latching onto heads out of what seems to be pure instinct than any actual malice.

* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Its main claim to fame among Ultra Beasts is being capable of firing what's essentially superglue with perfect accuracy. Not very impressive compared to having a black hole for a stomach, cutting through anything, or just being absurdly fast and strong. As Lockstin's video addresses however, such an ability is ''exceptionally'' powerful in an animated setting, as that superglue is capable of negating a lot of the other Ultra Beasts' powers, like Pheromosa's speed or Blacephalon's head regeneration.
* NoSell: It's completely unaffected by Nihilego trying to latch onto its head, as its [[BizarreAlienBiology brain is actually located in its abdomen.]]

* OhCrap: It has a panicked look on its face as it watches Mawile, Banette and Baby Kangashkan slowly climb their way through the storage boxes, compounded by the fact that it doesn't know Professor Oak's password to stop them.

* CompanyCrossReferences: Snugooi is not a canon Pokemon, but a fanmade one for Gnoggin's "WebVideo/PokemonLegendsNeoGhetsis" series.

* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed, but compared to other Pokémon, this one uses its shiny coloration rather than the regular one.

* OhCrap: It actually looks legitimately freaked out when Audino manages to revive the remaining Pokémon into a final charge.

* MoveInTheFrozenTime: Ultra Necrozma, backed up by the combined power of Victini, Lunala, Solgaleo, and the sun, contains too much energy confined in a single piece of spacetime, so its light breaks through Dialga's time stop, killing Dialga.

* CompanyCrossReferences: Snugooi is not a canon Pokemon, but a fanmade one for Gnoggin's "WebAnimation/PokemonLegendsNeoGhetsis" series.

!Pokemon

* AdaptationalBadass: Pokedex entries are taken ''very'' literally, resulting in certain innocuous Pokemon becoming far greater threats than they have ever been portrayed.

* CannonFodder: Due to the large amounts of Pokemon in every battle royale, plenty of them end up reduced to this, often only having seconds of screen time before they get violently annihilated by more powerful Pokemon.
* InsideAComputerSystem: The pokemon featured here are all simply simulations created to figure out the outcome of which of them could win in a battle royale. None of the pokemon are aware of this fact. [[spoiler: Until one Mega Gengar accidentally breaks the illusion for three pokemon.]] The only ones who avert this are the baby pokemon in the Baby Royale who are in a daycare in the real world.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Don't expect the arenas they battle in to survive. The first one has the entire island turned into a charred wasteland after a Magcargo-induced and Wobuffet-reflected double explosion. The Legendary royale outright ''crashes the simulation it's in from the destruction.'' Humorously, the Ultra Beast Battle Royale, starring Pokemon explicitly noted to be incredibly dangerous to the locals they appear in, ends up the ''least'' destructive one, as Alola is left more or less intact after the fact.

* OhCrap: Crossed with ThisIsGonnaSuck but Absol ends up going through a panic attack when it senses the imminent danger before the first battle royale begins. It doesn't go through this during the Mega Battle Royale surprisingly.

* BadassNormal: Compared to Pokemon with more impressive abilities, like creating black holes or the ability to steal souls, Machamp always manages to make it fairly far into a royale through sheer strength and skill alone before getting eliminated.

* AdaptationalBadass: Turns out the ability to leap over mountains gives it a powerful advantage, to the point of allowing it to win the game!... [[spoiler: Almost anyway.]]

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Despite its small size, anything falling from the heights it jumps to would be able to kill whatever it hits on the way down. It kills Alakazam and Dusknoir this way. [[spoiler: And its how it dies too.]]

* GrievousHarmWithABody: Referencing its Pokedex entry regarding saving a ship with its strength, Machamp pulls it out of the water... to then use it as a projectile weapon.

* AdaptationalJerkass: Gardevoirs are normally empathetic and kind Pokemon in the source material, but here it is far more ruthless. Its response to Gallade trying to defend it from Garchomp is to toss ''both'' into a black hole.

* PersonOfMassDestruction: It levels an entire city block, and kills all of the Pokemon in it, by spamming black holes everywhere, though Dusclops ends up eating both it and the black holes made.

* OnlySaneWoman: In the Mega Pokemon Battle Royale, it's this compared to Gallade, while Gallade tried to invoke LadyAndKnight against Garchomp, Gardevoir has none of it and simply takes both of them out with a black hole

* AdaptationalBadass: Turns out that being hotter than the surface of the sun is a lot more lethal than the Pokedex thinks it is. Although according to Lockstin, the temperature of the Pokemon itself is not the threat, unless one stood right next to it. It's the energy release from coming out of the Pokeball that allows it to wipe out pretty much every Pokemon on the island.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed, but compared to other Pokemon, this one uses its shiny coloration rather than the regular one.

* AdaptationalBadass: In the games, its Dark/Rock typing means a simple fighting type attack can take it down with ease. In here, though, its pokedex entry's claim of being immune to attack is taken into account, letting it shrug of anything the opposition dishes out.

* NighInvulnerable: Nothing any Pokemon can dish out does anything to it. Not even [[OlympusMons Mewtwo]] smashing it around a city phases it.
* NoSell: Like in the games Tyranitar's dark typing makes it immune to Psychic attacks and thanks to it being immune to any form of physical attack this means there's no direct way of harming it.
* RingOut: Thanks to its invincibility this is the only way that Tyranitar can be eliminated.

* AssShove: Implied to be what did it in the first battle royale considering its expression before fading to reveal Dugtrio in its place.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: In the Mega Battle Royale, Gengar shoves Gardevoir into a black hole, do note that this is the same Gardevoir that tossed a Gallade trying to protect it from a Garchomp, which it shoved both into the same black hole it created a few seconds ago.

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: [[spoiler: In its rampant abduction spree in the Mega Royale, it ends up tossing Mawile, Banette, and a Baby Kangashkan into another simulation, saving them from death and revealing to them the nature of their existences.]]
* SmallRoleBigImpact: [[spoiler: While it never lasts long in any of its appearances, it plays a pivotal role in revealing the nature of the simulation to Mawile, Banette and the baby Kangashkan, along with allowing them to survive.]]
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: It's a poison type Pokemon, but its still a bad idea to eat a literal mountain of trash, which does it in in the Gigantamax Battle Royale.
* WouldHurtAChild: It has no issue kidnapping Kangashkan's child. [[{{Irony}} Though it may have actually ''saved'' the child in the long run]]

* ShoutOut: [[spoiler: It takes the role of The Architect from The Matrix Reloaded in the stinger of Gigantamax Battle Royale.]]

* AdaptationalBadass: In the games, its ability to transform into any Pokemon is little more than a gimmick. [[spoiler: Here, it lets it win the battle royale, thanks to allowing it to take on the abilities and strengths of any Pokemon.]]

* PowerCopying: Being able to transform into any Pokemon means it can use any strategy it wants, [[spoiler: which is enough of an advantage to let it win. Specifically by transforming into Magikarp and copying its tactic a little bit after it does.]]

* DiscOneFinalBoss: Mewtwo is typically one of the more active and vicious fighters early in the battle royales it participates in but it is always put down just in time for the real big threat of the royale to come into play.
* KilledOffScreen: [[spoiler: Gets killed by Yvetal's InstantDeathRadius in the legendary royale.]]
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Designed to be the most powerful Pokemon in existence, [[spoiler: but it has no answer to Necrozma's power absorption, and neither of its mega forms can get through Tyranitar's unbreakable defense]].

* CurbStompBattle: Nothing stands a chance at beating it. The reason why it spends its time having a tea party up in space for much of the battle is specifically because if it were allowed to battle at the start, absolutely none of the Pokemon would survive.
* OhCrap: It actually looks legitimately freaked out when Audino manages to revive the remaining Pokemon into a final charge.
* PurposelyOverpowered: Its mega form is this, outclassing pretty much every other Pokemon, and necessitating it being distracted for much of the battle for the video to happen at all.

* ShoutOut: To [[VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic HK-47]]

* LogicalWeakness: While Desolate Land makes it immune to water type attacks, Kyogre shows up ''after'' its set up, letting it override it with its own ability and giving it the 4X type advantage back.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: It creates a crack in the earth just by landing, decimates a city with a single Solar Beam, and causes volcano's to erupt everywhere.

* CombatPragmatist: Necrozma will do anything to achieve victory, so it defeats Victini with a sneak attack and takes out Yveltal in order to eliminate every earthbound Pokemon still in the battle.

* MoveInTheFrozenTime: Ultra Necrozma, backed up by the combined power of Victini, Lunala, Solgaleo and the sun, contains too much energy confined in a single piece of spacetime, so it's light breaks through Dialga's time stop, killing Dialga.
* OneWingedAngel: After fusing with Lunala to become Dawn Wings Necrozma, it immediately brutalizes Solgaleo, absorbs it's energy, and becomes Ultra Necrozma.

* InstantDeathRadius: It spreads one over the entire planet the battle takes in, wiping out any Pokemon still around.

* PortalCut: Palkia takes out Hoopa by destroying one of it's rings while Hoopa was partway through.

* LiteralMetaphor: The Pokedex claims Arceus has a thousand arms, often interpreted as the Unown. The animation takes it literally, as per RuleOfFunny.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: The "Arceus wins" timeline takes this to the natural conclusion, with Arceus gaining a thousand arms and proving itself to be the mightiest Pokemon in that universe.

* BoringButPractical: [[spoiler: How Riolu wins as unlike nearly every other baby Pokemon, Riolu's Pokedex entry only describes its physical aptitude and ''doesn't'' speak of any weaknesses, unlike some Pokemon such as Pichu. As such Riolu had little holding it back]].

* AttackReflector: It's species signature skill, which it uses against Riolu to counteract its attacks. Until the latter finally overwhelms it, anyway.

* NiceGuy: Unlike most pokemon, it would much rather have a tea party with Rayquaza than participate in the fighting. It only attacks to avenge some pokemon it was in the middle of healing.

* CreatorsFavorite: Averted. While it is Terminal Montage's favorite Pokemon, it never plays any large roles or gets any special advantages in the Royale's. At most, it appears whenever Terminal's AuthorAvatar appears in the videos.

* BadassNormal: Compared to all other Mega Pokemon, the only advantage it gets is the ability to lift more weight. It uses that remarkably effectively, Seismic Tossing [[OlympusMons Mewtwo]], [[NighInvulnerable Tyranitar]] and two other Pokemon into the outer atmosphere and killing them.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears for a handful of seconds but in that time, it takes out the two biggest current threats in the fight and accidentally incurs the wrath of Rayquaza in the process.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Its decision to throw a group of Megas into space ended up getting the Rayquaza to finally intervene in the Mega Royale [[spoiler: and wipe out every remaining Pokemon]].

* SmallRoleBigImpact: It doesn't get to participate in the battle, as its an ''Eternamax'' Pokemon rather than Gigantamax. It still gets credited as being the reason the battle can happen at all, as its presence provides the energy for everyone to access their Gigantamax forms.

--> '''Urshifu''': "Aurora Borealis? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country localized entirely within you?

* BoringButPractical: [[spoiler: Compared to other winners, who win thanks to either having a broken power or massively outclassing the opposition, Lapras wins by virtue of being a non-aggressive StoneWall, which allows it to survive to the final confrontation with enough health to spare to survive and take out Rapid-Strike Urshifu.]]

* MightyGlacier: It is this incarnate, thanks to its ability to set up Aurora Veils at will. [[spoiler: It wins it the battle.]]

* FingerGun: It's what it uses in game, but its taken literally here, as it uses a literal sniper rifle that's attached to its finger.

* GrievousHarmWithABody: It gets used as a makeshift flail by G-Max Machamp, with brings its end.

* ButtMonkey: The poor thing gets absolutely no respect in the battle. It ends up using G-Max Snooze on the already asleep Snorlax, then bounces of its stomach into the stratosphere, has some of its hair burned off by Duraludon, painfully zapped by Pikachu, and finally done in by Hatterene.

* DrivenToSuicide: It willingly jumps into Gengar's mouth when the ghost Pokemon tries to lure it in with the voices of those who love Garbodor. Nobody loves Garbodor.

* OneSteveLimit: Averted like with Charizard, as there are two Urshifu's for each style in the battle. Like with Charizard, Urshifu is a species with more than one member, unlike most OlympusMons.

* BlackHoleBelly: The pokedex describes its stomach as this, and it eats enough to make the claim credible. [[spoiler: This ends up being its undoing, however, as it ends up eating something that ends up disagreeing with its stomach. Specifically Kartana, which can cut through anything.]]

* VocalDissonance: Referencing this tropes instance in the anime, it screams with memetic screams that do not at all fit its DraconicAbomination status.

* FragileSpeedster: It's speed is its greatest strength, but it's as frail as it looks. Once it's immobilized by Naganadel, it ends up a sitting duck.
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: It uses its pheromones to gain Kartana's loyalty and aid. It ends up "aiding" it by chopping of its limbs when it gets stuck.

* NonMaliciousMonster: As the pokedex establishes, Nihilego doesn't appear to be sentient. It spends the royale simply latching onto heads out of what seems to be pure instinct than any actual malice.

* FightingClown: It looks and acts like a clown, and spends the fight annoying other Pokemon more than actually fighting them.

* BadassAdorable: It's an inch-tall origami samurai, and its badass enough to face off against a giant DraconicAbomination, a living spaceship, and other powerful adversaries and [[spoiler: almost]] come out on top.

* GlassCannon: Its absurd cutting power is balanced out by it being very small and very fragile. [[spoiler: It ultimately costs it its victory, as it was unable to survive destroying Naganadel's stinger, letting the latter take the victory, if only barely.]]

* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Its main claim to fame among Ultra Beasts is being capable of firing what's essentially superglue with perfect accuracy. Not very impressive compared to having a black hole for a stomach, cutting through anything or just being absurdly fast and strong. As Lockstin's video addresses however, such an ability is ''exceptionally'' powerful in an animated setting, as that superglue is capable of negating a lot of the other Ultra Beast's powers, like Pheromosa's speed or Blacephalon's head regeneration.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: Whether it wants to log into the storage system to ''help'' the three escaping pokemon or ''stop'' them, it's hard to tell. Whatever its motivations, what Mawile, Banette and Baby Kangashkan are doing doesn't sit well with it.

* AdaptationalBadass: And how! Turns out the ability to leap over mountains gives it a powerful advantage, to the point of allowing it to win the game!... [[spoiler: Almost anyway.]]

* AdaptationalBadass: And how. Turns out that being hotter than the surface of the sun is a lot more lethal than the Pokedex thinks it is. Although according to Lockstin, the temperature of the Pokemon itself is not the threat, unless one stood right next to it. It's the energy release from coming out of the Pokeball that allows it to wipe out pretty much every Pokemon on the island.

* ButtMonkey: The poor thing gets absolutely no respect in the battle. It ends up using G-Max Snooze on the already asleep Snorlax, and bounces of its stomach into the stratosphere, has some of its hair burned off by Duralodon, painfully zapped by Pikachu, and finally done in by Hatterene.
* ThisIsADrill: It can spin its hair like a drill, and at least manages to do in Single-Strike Urshifu this way.]]

* AttackTheTail: [[spoiler:Naganadel's stinger was sliced open by Kartana in their final showdown, causing its abdomen to explode. The following explosion ends up being Kartana's undoing, leaving Naganadel as the sole victor, albeit barely alive and its stinger destroyed.]]

* PersonOfMassDestruction: Don't expect the arenas they battle in to survive. The first one has the entire island turned into a charred wasteland after a Magmortar-induced and Wobuffet-reflected double explosion. The Legendary royale outright ''crashes the simulation it's in from the destruction.'' Humorously, the Ultra Beast Battle Royale, starring Pokemon explicitly noted to be incredibly dangerous to the locals they appear in, ends up the ''least'' destructive one, as Alola is left more or less intact after the fact.

* PurposelyOverpowered: Its mega form is this, outclassing pretty much every other Pokemon, and necessitating it being distracted for the video to happen at all.

* FreezeFrameBonus: They can be spotted around the city during the Gigantamax Battle Royale.

* RapidFireFisticuffs: Rapid-Strike's specialty. It manages to take down G-Max Snorlax with a ''two minute'' straight barrage, and nearly takes down Lapras with another.

!Pokemon In General

!Introduced In Pokemon Battle Royale

[[folder:Absol]]
* OhCrap: Crossed with ThisIsGonnaSuck but Absol ends up going through a panic attack when it senses the imminent danger before the first battle royale begins. It doesn't go through this during the Mega Battle Royale surprisingly.

* AdaptationalBadass: And how! Turns out the ability to leap over mountains gives it a very strong advantage, to the point of allowing it to win the game!.. [[spoiler: Almost anyway.]]

* AssShove: Implied to be what did it in in the first battle royale considering its expression before fading to reveal Dugtrio in its place.

!Introduced in Legendary Pokemon Battle Royale

* BadassFingersnap: In the "Arceus wins" timeline, after catching Necrozma in one of it's thousand arms, Arceus summons forth the Unown, his metaphorical thousand arms, to concentrate all of it's power into one arm in order to destroy Necrozma, [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar Thanos-style]].

!Introduced in Baby Pokemon Battle Royale

* BoringButPractical: [[spoiler: How Riolu wins as unlike nearly every other baby Pokemon, Riolu's pokedex entry only describes its physical aptitude and ''doesn't'' speak of any weaknesses unlike some Pokemon such as Pichu. As such Riolu had little holding it back]].

* ExtremeOmnivore: It has a similair appetite to Munchlax, eating a lot of food and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick a baby.]]

!Introduced in Mega Pokemon Battle Royale

* EatDirtCheap: It loves to eat gems, and when the gem based Diancie shows up to the battle, it wastes no time hunting it down for a free meal.
* ShoutOut: It's voiced by [[WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch Stitch]], a fitting choice for a gremlin shaped critter.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears for a handful of seconds but in that time, it takes out the two biggest current threats in the fight and accidently incurring the wrath of Rayquaza in the process.

* EnemyMine: They drop all hostility between eachother during the Gigantamax Battle Royale, working together to survive.

!Introduced in Gigantamax Pokemon Battle Royale

* LongNeck: It can extend its neck a considerable distance, something that G-Max Coalossal was not aware off until it decides to showcase this ability after some ill-adviced taunts.

* GrievousHarmWithTheBody: G-Max Copperajah's compulsion to move mountains compels it to push Snorlax around, turning it into a giant wrecking ball that [[SquashedFlat squashes Cinderace.]]

* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Its never a good idea to eat a literal mountain of garbage. Gengar learns this the hard way.

!Introduced in Ultra Beast Battle Royale

* EnemyMine: It has one with Naganadel, as the two are considered to have a bond in the TCG. Doesn't stop it from eating it however, though it may have been accidental.

* FragileSpeedster: It's speed is its greatest strength, but its as frail as it looks. Once its immobilized by Naganadel, it ends up a sitting duck.

* KickChick: It fights exclusively with powerful kicks. Powerful enough to obliterate Buzzwole's bulked up arms easily, and kick it into orbit.

* YourHeadASplode: Its signature ability is to explode its own head, and quickly regrow it. It does this repeatedly throughout the fight, including getting rapid fire head popped by Naganandel.

* BadassAdorable: It's an inch tall origami samurai, and its badass enough to face off against a giant DraconicAbomination, a living space ship, and other powerful adversaries and [[spoiler: almost]] come out on top.
* FurryReminder: It's a tiny origami samurai, and its first target is the bamboo like Celesteela. Samurai practiced their swordsmanship on bamboo.
* GlassCannon: It's absurd cutting power is balanced out by it being very small and very fragile. [[spoiler: It utltimately costs it its victory, as it was unable to survive destroying Naganadel's stinger, letting the latter take the victory, if only barely.]]

* SdrawkcabSpeech: Like in the anime, it's actually speaking english, but in reverse.

* TheWormThatWalks: Stakataka is actually a colony of brick like organisms that clump together to form the Stakataka form. This allows the body to shift and change shape however they please.

* MediumAwareness: He's aware of the popup links on youtube videos, including where they are and when they disappear. It's only him he has this power, though.

* AscendedExtra: They're Gengar's victims in the ''Mega Pokemon Battle Royale'', but the stinger in Gigantamax Pokemon Battle Royale implies they will be playing a greater role.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Baby Kangaskhan plays this role on the team, due to being a baby.
* {{Determinator}}: TheStinger for Ultra Beast Battle Royale shows that the three of them are trying to navigate the storage system to escape. It's clear that they have a long, ''long'' way to go, but evident by Sudowoodo's concerned look, that doesn't seem to deter them.
* EnemyMine: They drop all hostility between eachother during the Gigantamax Battle Royale, working together to survive.
* FreezeFrameBonus: They can be spotted around the city during the Gigantamax Battle Royale.
* GoMadFromTheRevelation: They are rightly horrified when they are shown by Alakazam that their lives are just a series of battle royale simulations. TheStinger for the ''Ultra Beasts Battle Royale'' reveals, however, that they are not taking this sitting down, and are attempting to escape as a result.
* MissingChild: Poor momma Kangaskhan can only screech in horror as she watches her child get kidnapped by Gengar. [[{{Irony}} This may have actually]] ''[[{{Irony}} saved]]'' [[{{Irony}} her, however.]]

!Introduced in Gigantamax Pokemon Battle Royale

[[folder:Eternatus]]
* SmallRoleBigImpact: It doesn't get to participate in the battle, as its an ''Eternamax'' Pokemon rather than Gigantamax. It still gets credited as being the reason the battle can happen at all, as its presence provides the energy for everyone to access their Gigantamax forms.
* ShoutOut: It performs [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Master Hand's Smash 64 intro.]]

* MissingChild: Poor momma Kangaskhan can only screech in horror as she watches her child get kidnapped by Gengar. [[{{Irony}} This may have actually]] ''[[{{Irony}}saved]]'' [[{{Irony}}her, however.]]

* MissingChild: Poor momma Kangaskhan can only screech in horror as she watches her child get kidnapped by Gengar. [[{{Irony}} This may have actually ''saved'' her, however.]]

* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears for a handful of seconds but in that time, it takes out the two biggest current threats in the fight and accidently incurring the wrath of Raquaza in the process.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Its decision to throw a group of Megas into space ended up getting the Raquaza to finally intervene in the Mega Royale [[spoiler: and wipe out every remaining Pokemon]].

* MissingChild: Poor momma Kangaskhan can only screech in horror as she watches her child get kidnapped by Gengar. {{Irony This may have actually ''saved'' her, however.}}

* LogicalWeakness: Its giant tail is what gives it the range to attack other Pokemon. Once it is cut, it topples into the ground.

* BigEater: It didn't come to order a light salad, it wants to eat everything in sight. It mostly spends its fight eating everything in its way, including any Ultra Beasts unfortunate enough to be in its way.

* PowerCordTail: Beyond looking like a bunch of power cords wrapped together, it plugs in an actual power cord tail into the power plant to bolster its light show performance. This ends up biting it in the tail, as it can no longer move when celesteela decides to take off.

* InsideAComputerSystem: The pokemon featured here are all simply simulations created to figure out the outcome of which of them could win in a battle royale. None of the pokemon are aware of this fact. [[spoiler: Until one Mega Gengar accidentaly breaks the illusion for three pokemon.]]

* NonMaliciousMonsterL As the pokedex establishes, Nihilego doesn't appear to be sentient. It spends the royale simply latching onto heads out of what seems to be pure instinct than any actual malice.

* LogicalWeakness: Its head regrows from the body. When Naganandel blocks it with its glue, it can no longer regrow it and keels over dead.

* GlassCannon: It's absurd cutting power is balanced out by it being very small and very fragile. [[spoiler: It utltimately costs it its victory, as it was unable to survive destroying Naganandel's stinger, letting the latter take the victory, if only barely.]]

* KickTheSonOfABitch: In the Mega Battle Royale, Gengar shoves Gardevoir into a black hole, do note that this is the same Gardevoir that tossed a Gallade trying to protect it into the same black hole it created a few seconds ago.

* MissingChild: Poor momma Kangaskhan can only screech in horror as she watches her child get kidnapped by Gengar. [[spoiler:This may have actually ''saved'' her, however.]]

* AccidentalKill: Xurkitree getting toasted by its exhaust is purely accidental, as it is just trying to lift off into space.

* StoneWall: Exaggerated and then some. It takes Rapid-Strike Urshifu over ''two minutes straight'' of continues punching to take it down! Not helped by G-Max Replenish letting it occasionally restore health.

* EnemyMine: It has one with Naganandel, as the two are considered to have a bond in the TCG. Doesn't stop it from eating it however, though it may have been accidental.

* OhCrap: It has this look on its face as it watches Mawile, Banette and Baby Kangashkan slowly climb their way through the storage boxes, compounded by the fact that it doesn't know Professor Oak's password to stop it.

* CompanyCrossReferences: Snugooi is not a canon Pokemon, but a fanmade one for Gnoggin's "Pokemon Legends NEO: Ghetsis" series.
