* CatSmile: Well, Meowth Smile, but Acerola retains this trait from canon.



* HoldYourHippogriffs: Being set on the Pokémon world, certain phrases or terms are changed to better fit it. For example, Acerola's CatSmile is said to be a "Meowth-like smile."

Removing non existent tropes and correcting the spelling of Alya’s superhero name.


* ClockworkMonster: The main antagonist of the fourth chapter of Akuma Numerology is a massive collection of clocks known as Father Time.



** When Luka gets taken out of commission by Retry before he can become Viperion, Rena Rogue unifies the Fox and Snake Miraculous instead, becoming '''Rena Rewind''' in the process.

* HeroInsurance: This trope being averted forms the foundation of ''Akuma Numerology'': Ladybug gets sent to the infinity train by Apex Conductor, and with her goes the Miraculous Cure, forcing Chat Noir and Rena Rogue to pick up the slack and minimize collateral damage.

* HugeHolographicHead: Just like he did at the end of the Origins two-partner, Shadow Moth uses his Akumas to create a giant version of his head to confront Apex Conductor, now back to Drogo Denver, about him sending Ladybug onto the Train. He later repeats the trick when Chat Noir, Rena Rogue and their temporary recruits appear inside Father Time.
* InnBetweenWorlds: The Mccadam's Bar serves as one of these, being a nexus where several versions of the Infinity Train collide.

** For the Miraculous World side, since it takes place during season 4, things like Gabriel Agreste actually being Hawk Moth, him becoming Shadow Moth and Marinette becoming the new guardian of the Miraculous is laid out pretty early on. The identities of later superheroes, like Rena Rogue, Purple Tigress, and Pigella are also revealed rather casually.

* NoMacguffinNoWinner: Pretty much the setup for ''Akuma Numerology'': Apex Conductor ends up sending Ladybug to the Train among many other victims, and since those sent there by him ''don't'' come back, this essentially means Shadow Moth can no longer accomplish his EvilPlan. So, while Marinette's on the Train, Shadow Moth changes plans to try undo Apex Conductor's mistake, while Chat Noir and Rena Rogue try to pick up the slack.

The end result is that the crown ends up shattering, and with it destroyed, the car is soon to follow.]]



* TimeCrash: This is remarked by Rena Rogue as the worst-case scenario in regards to misusing the Rabbit Miraculous superpower to try to fix the current dilemma in the Miraculous World.

** There's also the Snake Miraculous and its Second Chance, allowing their user to go back to a preset point in time for as long as they want. Viperion normally does this, but with Retry taking him out of the fight, Rena Rogue gets the ability after unifying the Fox and Snake Miraculous to become '''Rena Rewind'''.

Supernatural Is Purple is no longer a trope

** The numbers given to Apex Conductor's victims are colored purple like an akumatization, rather than the standard green.

Loads And Loads Of Characters is no longer a trope

Adult Fear is now a disambig


* AdultFear: Naturally, the relatives of the ones snatched by the Train don't have such a good time.
** For the Pokémon World, the Aether Foundation staff start looking for Acerola across the multiverse once she disappears just as the Infinity Energy starts giving ghosts corporeal bodies.
** For the Miraculous World, not only do the parents of Apex Conductor's victims have to deal with the fact their children are just ''gone'', but Ladybug, the Hero of Paris, ''is gone too'', leaving Rena Rogue and Chat Noir to pick up the slack.

* DeathByAdaptation: This story pulls no punches on how many people are dead here.

* BlindingCameraFlash: This is what temporarily saves the Trial Challengers from [[spoiler: the Totem Hypno: Moon takes a picture of the Pokemon, and it stuns them long enough to allow the group to go into hiding.]]


Added DiffLines:

** While we're not told ''what'' language it is, there's one such tongue in the Pokemon World, being so common that it has rendered all previously spoken languages obsolete.
** In the Miraculous World, it's French, given that the setting takes place in Paris.

-->'''Acerola:'''' Yeah, one whose matriarch could accidentally or intentionally release alien hordes on Alola while her son was probably in the top ten strongest trainers in the region if Acerola had to guess, and said matriarch wasn’t exactly a novice trainer herself. Also money was power.

* ShipperOnDeck: Acerola the 4th is one for Acerola and Ash when she finds out he's related to royalty, much to Acerola the 13th's embarrassment. It's not helped that said queen's reminded of one of her own sons, who had a similar case of the 'I can't tell girls like me' problem Ash has.

Added DiffLines:

* HasAType: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]]. A bit in chapter 5 of ''Thorns''' has Lillie, Mallow, and Lana ask Ash about this, as they can't quite figure it out by looking at him. Lana asks about whether he likes them plump or thin, using Mallow and Lillie for comparison, in her usual way, but all her hints go right through him. They then take him to a street in Akala Island where couples go for an answer, but that brings nothing.


Added DiffLines:

* ShaggyDogStory: A moment in ''Thorns'' chapter 5 has the girls ponder if Ash HasAType. Giving him hints doesn't work, like usual, telling him straight only gets them a vague answer, and when they go to a lovebird street in Akala Island, they leave with no answers and in Mallow's case, heartbreak at seeing her crush and brother going out on a date.
