Hair Of Gold requires certain characteristics besides blonde hair. The character needs to be beautiful, good, young, innocent or something thereof. This entry contains insufficient context. If the character fits, add the trope back with enough details.

Cute Shotaro Boy has been renamed to Adorably Precocious Child. The trope is a young child who is considered cute because they try to act mature and responsible beyond their years. Due to heavy misuse, Zero Context Examples and entries that don\'t fit the description will be deleted.

Blue Eyes has been split into different tropes (Icy Blue Eyes, Innocent Blue Eyes, Creepy Blue Eyes, etc) as per this thread because it\'s not just about having that eye colour, it\'s about what traits blue eyes supposed to symbolise and blue eyes is constantly being misused for \"X has blue eyes\", so anything that doesn\'t fit the split off tropes or Zero Content Examples will be removed. This goes for most of the Common Eye Colours tropes as well.


* BlueEyes

[[folder: Pokémon Ranger]]

!!Lunick/Solana

-> The player is offered a choice of gender, with males playing as Lunick and females playing as Solana. Both are new Rangers being employed in the land of Fiore. Whichever one you don't choose to play as acts as your friend and partner.

* BlueEyes[=/=]RedEyes: Lunick and Solana, respectively.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Lunick.
* EverythingsBetterWithBunnies: Lunick's permanent partner is Minun, and Solana's is Plusle.
* HelloInsertNameHere: Whichever one you play as.
* TheHero
* HeroicMime
* ShockAndAwe: Again, Plusle and Minun.
* ThemeNaming: Lunick comes from "lunar." Solana comes from "Solar."
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair
* YouLookFamiliar: She resembles Clair a bit from the Gold/Silver/Crystal series.
** In a non-Pokemon way, she resembles [[DannyPhantom Ember]], as well as [[KaBlam June]].

!!Prof. Hastings

-> The head researcher of the Ranger Union, he is known for being impatient. He invented the Stylers that the Rangers use.

* ArtEvolution : Loses his hat and unbuttons his lab coat after the first game.
* CoolOldGuy
* BadassGrandpa
* BadassLabcoat
* BadassMoustache
* TheIllegible: He could decipher an old, tattered diary that had been abandoned for years, but he can't decipher his own diary.
* MeaningfulName: He's very impatient and prefers to jog rather than walk.
* MissionControl
* NiceHat: In the first game. He ditches it in the next two for some reason.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: When he doesn't get much sleep, he tends to write own his name as "Hatsting" or even "Hatagnits".

!!Murph

-> A somewhat slow guy, he was originally a Ranger in Fiore. Eventually, he became the PR head of the Ranger Union. In Guardian Signs, he is deployed to Oblivia on The Union to assist the player.

* AscendedExtra: Over the course of the series, he went from a minor character to a fairly important one and finally to a main character.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He doesn't get angry very often, but when he ''does''...
* TheChick: Is promoted to a male example in ''Guardian Signs''.
* DreadfulMusician
* RalphWiggum: How he became a Ranger is a mystery, but he gets stuck with "missions" such as changing lightbulbs, building a sandcastle, and "How far can you walk in 100 steps?"
* TookALevelInBadass: Well, not exactly "badass", but by the second game he's stopped being a ranger, which he was terrible at, and instead is the head of the Ranger Union's public relations, a job he's much more skilled at.

!!Aria

* BlondesAreEvil: Or at least {{Jerkass}}es.
* CustomUniform
* DefrostingIceQueen
* FingerlessGloves
* JerkAss
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: After CharacterDevelopment.
* TedBaxter

!!Chris

* NotSoStoic: [[spoiler:Upon seeing the legendary Rayquaza, he promptly bursts into an awe-filled, long-winded speech about its magnificence and beauty. Afterwards, he asks you not to tell anyone about it.]]
* TheQuietOne: He's known as "Silent Chris".
* TheStoic

!!Spenser

* BigBadassBirdOfPrey: His Fearow.
* BigBrotherMentor: He's the one who teaches you how to be a Ranger, and he takes an active role in fighting the Go-Rock Squad.
* TheRival: A friendly rivalry with Joel.
* TheSmartGuy: He knows all there is to know about Deoxys, and it's implied he knows about computers and [[BuffySpeak stuff.]]
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Green Hair]]

!!Joel

* TheLancer
* TheRival: With Spenser.
* StoicSpectacles

!!Cameron

* TheBigGuy

* MyNewGiftIsLame: The giver of those lame gifts.

!!Elita

* TokenGirl: Of the four Ranger Leaders in Fiore.
* TheChick
* TheStoic
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Purple Hair]]

!!Gordor

-> This guy has plans that require Professor Hastings's Super Styler. With it, he intends to control Entei, Suicune, and Raikou so that he can stage himself as the hero of Fiore while the Rangers are ousted as ineffective. His drive stems from [[spoiler:constantly being upstaged by Hastings during their youth]].

* [[spoiler:AlwaysSomeoneBetter: His "FreudianExcuse," if you can consider it that. He's always envied Professor Hastings.]]
* BigBad
* EvilLaugh: Does this constantly, [[ObviouslyEvil even when he's pretending to be good]].
* [[spoiler:HeelFaceTurn: He shows up in the final Ranger Net mission to stop TheRemnant of his Go-Rock Squad from stealing the Manaphy egg, reprimand them, tell them to cut out the Pokemon-abusing world-conquering crap, and then inform the player that he's taken their last words to him to heart.]]
* ObviouslyEvil: It's pretty obvious from the moment you see him he's the bad guy, and they don't really try to hide it either.
* [[spoiler:OminousPipeOrgan: It's his device to control Entei, Raikou, and Suicune at the end! [[AwesomeMoments Good thing Plusle and Minun bust it.]]]]
* [[spoiler:SaveTheVillain]]
* [[spoiler:VillainExitStageLeft: And he ran while you were saving him, too!]]

!!Go-Rock Quads

-> The sons and daughter of Gordor, they act as his main enforcers. Apparently, being related to the boss is the only way one can get a promotion in the Go-Rock Squad... After the collapse of the Go-Rock Squad, they decide to go straight and become a famous band.

* BerserkButton: Clyde. In Shadows of Almia, Billy says that Clyde [[RageQuit stormed out]] of the park in anger because he thought the lyrics to "Dream Energy," which was written by Blake Hall, sucked. Also, his line in the original motto is "the rhythm of rage pounds the ground!"
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Garret.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Billy and Clyde, due to dialogue in the first game.
* {{Bishonen}}: Garrett and Billy. To a lesser extent, Clyde. I mean, LOOK AT THOSE HIPS.
* DaddysLittleVillain: Tiffany.
* DemotedToExtra: In ''Guardian Signs''. They're major villains in the original and still a big part of the plot in ''Shadows of Almia'', but here they are solely around for a Quest.
* TheDragon: Billy, as the oldest, fits this role.
* HeelFaceTurn: Appear again in the next two games as a band. [[spoiler:And they don't like Blake Hall one bit in the second, perhaps because they realize that he's up to essentially the same stuff that Gordor was doing before him. Their responses to Altru Inc.'s efforts to dictate the structure of their upcoming concert are... less than cordial.]]
* OverlordJr: Billy, Garrett, and Clyde.
* QuirkyMinibossSquad
* SiblingTeam
* TechnoWizard: Garret, according to the manga, was the one who altered Hastings' Super Styler.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy: All of them, though Tiffany is obviously a girl.

* BadassAdorable: They seem to be younger than the rangers of the first and third game, considering that they come fresh from the academy once they go to work.
* BlueEyes
* CuteShotaroBoy: Kellyn.
* CuttingOffTheBranches: ''Guardian Signs'' references Kellyn by name, suggesting that he's the canon hero of ''Shadows of Almia''.
** Or they decided to TakeAThirdOption and got rid of the SchrodingersPlayerCharacter. The Pokemon series likes to have a FiveManBand wherever possible, after all...
* GirlishPigtails: Kate.
* TheHero
* HeroicMime
* KidHero
* SchrodingersPlayerCharacter

!!Keith

* {{Expy}}: His personality and role is very similar to your opposite gender partner from the previous game.
* FieryRedhead: It's kind of auburn...
* IdiotHero
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Comes off as this at the beginning of the game in their time as Rangers. He then takes a TenMinuteRetirement in Fiore, then comes back as a Top Ranger with the hero, and he becomes more supportive. He gets even more nicer when the hero saves him from captivity, and saves the hero when he/she gets sucked into a void of darkness in the finale. He accompanies you on the extra mission to Darkrai and gives some help.
* MadeOfIron: This guy should get some credit for being buttheaded by a Magmortar, crashing into that really far cliff, then flying back on a Staraptor at probably high speed, and diving to save the hero from dying.
* PrisonerExchange: He is the prisoner.
* TheRival

!!Rhythmi

* TechnoWizard: [[spoiler:He wasn't content with the programming that Isaac taught him, and studied more on his own to make things such as delayed traps and sturdy programming that even Isaac has difficulty cracking.]]
