* ActionDressRip "Trading Faces"
** "October 31st" does this in a ShoutOut to JamesBond.
* ActionGirl: Kim, Yori, even Zita when she needed to be, making Ron ask "Are all girls like this, or just the ones I know?"
** Both Kim and Yori double as The ActionGirlfriend.
* ActionHoggingOpening
* ActorAllusion: The Fearless Ferret episode was a cross-spoof of the 60s ''Series/{{Batman}}'' series and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. Will Friedle was the voice actor for ''Beyond'''s Terry [=McGinnis=].
** This [[Series/SmartGuy isn't the first time Tahj Mowry's played a kid genius on a Disney show.]]
** Also, Chris [=McDonald=] (Hego) voiced {{Superman}} on an episode of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' with Will Friedle.
** In "And The Molerat Will Be CGI", Monique, played by Raven-Symone, gossips at a table with Kim, Bonnie and teen idol actress Heather, played by Anneliese Van Der Pol, who plays Chelsea Daniels in ''ThatsSoRaven''. Monique and Heather can really relate to each other.
** During a scene in ''The Cupid Effect'', [[ItMakesSenseInContext while ad-libbing a love note to Wade's Mom]], Señor Senior Sr. (Ricardo Montalban) casually tosses in a line about chasing the wealth of the world " [[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan 'round perdition's flame]]".
* AdamWesting: Adam West appears as "Timothy North" aka The Fearless Ferret, as mentioned above.
* AdiposeRex: King Rodingon, who was replaced by King Wallace in the episode "Royal Pain".
* AdrenalineMakeover: Over the entire fourth season, Ron slowly worked toward becoming cool enough to be Kim Possible's boyfriend. In the finale, when a threat downs the girl who can do anything, the sidekick steps up and embraces his Monkey Kung Fu.
* AnAesop: Most every episode. Sometimes subverted, sometimes [[AesopAmnesia forgotten]] from a previous episode.
** Hilariously so in the second episode to feature Gill as the villain:
-->Normally I would say we learned that mistrust and paranoia were bad...except those were the things that saved us.
** And a deliberately warped one in the episode on healthy eating. Ron delivers the [[AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle "I learned something today" speech]] to camera (and gets the wrong moral, telling us to [[FantasticAesop stay out of mutagenic mad-science chemicals that will turn you into a monster]] instead of eating healthy food), while a growing crowd behind him [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall wonders who on Earth he's actually actually addressing]].
* AesopAmnesia:
** When will Ron ever learn that being popular just isn't him and that he should believe in the friends that actually like him for him?
** Kim learns that her brothers can be helpful and not just nuisances at least twice, and to disregard peer pressure from Bonnie a good few times.
* AffablyEvil: The Seniors, especially Senor Senior, Sr. He treats his villainy as more of a part-time hobby than anything and doesn't seem to be a bad person at all. Ron says that Sr. is a bad man with good manners.
** [=DNAmy=] is the sweetest, kindest, sociopathic geneticist you could ever hope to meet. She's not a bad person...she just wants to pervert nature and science to create life size abominations unto all things good. Or "Cuddle Buddies" as she likes to call them. Actually, Cuddle Buddies are an homage to Beanie Babies, and she just fell in love with them to the point where she started creating them.
* AffectionateParody: The show itself sets out to do to JamesBond movies what Series/{{Buffy|the Vampire Slayer}} did to horror films. One episode however was a spoof of the old ''Series/{{Batman}}'' tv series, with AdamWest playing...wait for it, Timothy North, the [[AdamWesting eccentric actor]] who really believed he was the Fearless Ferret.
* AirGuitar: Motor Ed and Drakken do it a few times in the show in the episodes which have Motor Ed. [[VerbalTic Seriously.]]
* AirVentPassageway: Kim, Ron, and Rufus use air vents to get ''into'' places, such as Ron's panic room in 'Odds Man In' and The Bermuda Triangle in [[TheMovie 'So the Drama']]
* AlienAbduction: Drakken is abducted by TheGreys once, and the Lowardians snatch both him Drakken and Kim.
* AlienInvasion: [[spoiler:The Lorwardians invade Earth to get revenge for being tricked by Drakken and beaten up by Kim.]]
** [[spoiler: "So payback's the sitch!"]]
* AliensAndMonsters: Considering the characters in the show, the Lorwardian invaders and the monsters made by the {{mad scientist}}s are just icing on the cake.
* AllAnimalsAreDogs: Subverted in an episode where Kim and Ron need to enter a dog show to gain access to a thief's home. Rufus needed to be taught how to act like a dog.
* AllJustADream "Rewriting History"
** ...OrWasItADream
* AllUpToYou
* TheAllegedCar: The Roth SL Coupe (a.k.a. the Sloth) Kim's father gives her, initially.
-->'''Kim:''' What a piece of--\\
'''Mr Dr P.:''' [[CurseCutShort History!]]
** Ron's scooter also qualifies.
* AlmightyJanitor: "Job Unfair"
* AlmostKiss: Way too many in Season 4 when Kim & Ron were about to kiss. Wade, Monique, and Bonnie were just a few of the people who interrupted would be kisses between Kim and Ron. WordOfGod admitted it was an intriguing gag.
* AlphaBitch: Bonnie Rockwaller.
* AmazonChaser: Ron seems to have a thing for women like this. He even {{lampshade}}s it.
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Bonnie Rockwaller. Heck, she could just be a tanned white girl. They never say.
* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Some of the animals in the show exhibit intelligence higher than normal for their species. The best example being the TeamPet Rufus.
* AmusementParkOfDoom: Adrena Lynn's DeathCourse.
* AndYouThoughtItWasAGame: Cousin Larry.
* {{Angrish}}: Dr. Drakken falls into this whenever he is mocked by his assistant.
* {{Animorphism}}: Kim was turned into a monkey, and Ron was turned into a beaver (though not at the same time).
* ArcWelding: In his second episode, Monkey Fist revealed that he had his body modified to gain more monkey-like features. In [=DNAmy=]'s second episode she reveals she was the one who made those modifications.
* {{Area 51}}
* AristocratsAreEvil: Lord Monkey Fist is an actual [[EvilBrit British]] noble.
* ArmsDealer: Jack Hench's [=HenchCo=] operation is a straightforward (if somewhat toned down to fit the KP universe) example. May also describe a few other characters, such as Cyrus Bortle auctioning off his [[EmotionBomb Moodulator chips]].
* ArtShift: The episode "Virt-U-Ron" featured a blockier style of art to show that they were in a video game.
* ArtEvolution: Monique went from have black dot eyes, to white eyes with pupils by the second season.
** Also, the characters had more movement in the first two seasons than in later ones. The animation also got smoother as time went on.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: "Rufus vs Commodore Puddles" plus The Dimension Monster and "Gronde"
* AwesomeMcCoolname: You have three guesses on this. The first two don't count.
* BackStory: Shego was a superhero, till she [[StartOfDarkness got fed up]] [[EvilIsCool with that]]. Kim set up a website for odd jobs until a typo from someone in trouble started her on hero work.
* BadBoss: Gemini's secret headquarters is full of [[TrapDoor trap doors]] that he uses to dispose of {{Mooks}} [[YouHaveFailedMe who have "failed" him]], or just argued against him.
** One of said {{Mooks}} where GenreSavvy enough ''not'' to sit on the offered chair. It didn't help though but point for the effort.
* {{Badass}}: Kim, chiefly. Also, Shego, Dr. Director and number of others.
* BadassBoast: Whether claiming to know sixteen styles of kung fu or listing some of her impressive accomplishments, Kim likes to do this, usually in a breezy way.
* {{Badass Grand|pa}}ma: Kim's Nana Possible used to do much the same sort of thing that her granddaughter does now, and still indulges in it on occasion.
** [[AffablyEvil Senor Senior Sr]] is a legend of extreme sports.
* BadassFamily: The Possible family. Also Shego's family, who are a team of superheroes.
* BadFuture: ''[[EvilOverlord The Supreme One]]'' [[TakeOverTheWorld takes over the world]] and rules it from her [[EvilTowerOfOminousness citadel of Doom]] in Shegoton, formerly Middleton in ''[[TheMovie A Sitch in Time]]''.
* BadVibrations: Done numerous times, including D N Amy's [[Franchise/JurassicPark dinosaur]], [[Franchise/JurassicPark complete with a vibrating tub of nacho cheese]].
* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: Kim watching Rufus in the episode "Adventures in Rufus Sitting". Kim and Ron watching Hana in the episode "Oh No! Yono!".
* BareYourMidriff: Kim showed this off with every outfit she had in the first season. The animators eventually dropped the LimitedWardrobe and by the end of the series it was all but gone. Her last midriff outfit to go was her classic mission outfit in "Clothes Minded".
** {{Lampshaded}} by Kim's father in the aforementioned episode. When he hears that Kim is in the market for a new mission outfit, he gives her a very large, cumbersome suit of PoweredArmor to wear.
-->"It's been my dream to see you save the world ''without'' baring your midriff."
** Why stop with Kim? There's Bonnie and the rest of the cheerleaders, and few background female characters are like this too.
* BasementDweller: Frugal Lucre.
* BatmanColdOpen: Half of the teasers in the show. The other half were often related to a subplot relating to Kim's personal life that lead into the rest of the episode.
* BattleAura: Ron's Monkey Powers, The Go powers.
* BattleCouple: Kim and Ron. Albeit Kim is by far the more "combat effective" of the two, but the series does make it a point that she definitely works better with Ron than without him. [[spoiler:Although it seems the two fit this trope fully by the end of "Graduation".]]
* BattleTops: The Spinning Tops of [[DoomyDoomsOfDoom Doom]].
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: {{Averted}} in "The Truth Hurts" when Kim, under the influence of a truth ray, admits to picking her nose when nobody's looking. Played straight most of the time: the character might get dusty, muddy or soaked with water, but only a few moments. It's most obvious when Kim and Shego land in a mud bath in "Mad Dogs And Aliens", but are back to being spotless at the next scene change.
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: In the episode "Big Bother", Yori told Kim Possible that Ron Stoppable was her destiny. Of course, this [[WMG/KimPossible could be her way]] of saying IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy.
* BeleagueredAssistant: Shego to Drakken.
* BerserkButton: ''A Sitch in Time'': [[spoiler:"YOU'RE the reason I moved to Norway? You're the reason I've been eating MEAT CAKES?"]]
** Also Wade, after Team Impossible [[spoiler:spikes his computer when he attempts to hack them. He comes back later in the episode in person to deal with them. "Nobody, ''nobody'' spikes my system!"]]
** "THIS IS THE LAST STRAW! YOU TOOK...AWAY...THE BENDY STRAWS!"
* BetweenMyLegs: This shot shows up fairly often, usually on Kim or Shego.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Drakken]] and [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Ron]] are quite dangerous when they stop acting silly and [[LetsGetDangerous actually try]]. Lucre was also a surprisingly effective villain even with his lame gimmicks.
* BigBad: [[MadScientist Dr. Drakken]] and [[TheDragon Shego]] are the primary antagonists, and the ones that get closest to their goals.
* BigEater: Ron Stoppable and Rufus.
* BigNo: Twice in Season 4, the later is followed by DisturbedDoves. Ron has a couple throughout the series (including a truly epic one in "A Very Possible Christmas" (Season 2, episode 16), but Kim lets one out in "Trading Faces" (Season 4, Episode 3) that frankly sounds halfway between a BigNo and a Tarzan yell.
* BigOlUnibrow: Doctor Drakken.
* BilingualBonus: The same episode Ron has to take care of a sack of flour, the Stoppables adopt a daughter whose name means [[StealthPun "flower"]] in Japanese.
* {{Bizarrchitecture}}: The Bueno Nacho restaurants.
* BlackBestFriend: Monique, Wade to some degree.
* BlackSheep: Shego.
* BlandNameProduct
* BlessedAreTheCheesemakers: The Cheese Building (made of Wisconsin Swiss), The "History of Cheese" book, The Cheese Fountain, etc.
* BondVillainStupidity: Lampshaded in "Animal Attraction".
-->'''Senor Senior Sr:''' A proper villain always leaves his foe when he's about to expire.\\
'''Senor Senior Jr:''' Why?\\
'''Senor Senior Sr:''' Well, it would be bad form just to lull about, waiting for it.\\
'''Senor Senior Jr:''' Why?\\
'''Senor Senior Sr:''' Tradition!
** Falsetto Jones notably subverts it to watch the DeathTrap in action, even after Kim asks if he's going to leave, to the point he was a one-shot villain ''because'' of his competence.
-->'''Kim:''' Alright, but I warn you, you're breaking with villain tradition here.
* BorrowedCatchphrase: When Ron is fretting over an EldritchAbomination after his baby sister Kim tries to assure him of the number of times they have [[DwayneJohnson smacked down]] the BigBad before.
* ABoyAndHisX: Ron and his naked mole rat.
* BoyBand: The Oh Boyz
* BraggingThemeTune
* BrainlessBeauty: {{Subverted}} with most of the characters, though most notably by [[HotScientist Vivian Francis Porter]].
* BrattyHalfPint: Cousin Shawn, later Artie Smarty.
* BreakoutCharacter: Shego & Drakken. They were just meant to be one of the many villains in the show. Shego was simply Drakken's sidekick; Her color scheme was chosen because green and black are "villain" colors and she didn't even have her superpowers. Drakken was more pushy, and aggressive then he turned out to be post-Season 1. They soon became main characters and arguably the ''mascots'' of the series (Besides, y'know, WesternAnimation/KimPossible, Ron and Rufus.)
* BreakingTheFourthWall: "The Ron Factor", Kim stops the opening credits to ask the audience. "Wait, You Want Ron?" Given how this was Steve Loter's first episode as director, that's a considerable bit of irony, since under his direction Ron would take the spotlight away from the show's title character.
* BreakTheCutie: You'd think Drakken would have learnt after he, Killigan and Monkey Fist tried to do this to a five year old Kim. Nope, after getting thoroughly trounced Drew wants another shot at it. Monty and Duff on the other hand learn their lesson.
* BrilliantButLazy: Shego is considerably more competent than any of the other villains, but shows no real initiative and spends much of her time lounging around reading magazines.
** Also one possible [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation interpretation]] of Ron -- [[CowardlySidekick usually bumbling]], but able to [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass come through when it counts]].
* BringIt: Kim's attitude in a nutshell, to the point of imitating [[DwayneJohnson The Rock]] more than once.
* BrokenAesop: In "The Twin Factor", Kim describes a [[MindControlDevice mind control chip]] as "ferociously unethical". [[HypocriticalHumor Later, she uses it on her brothers while babysitting.]]
** The morality of mind control goes right out the window when Kim's own father brainwashes her. Or the previous episode where Shego having her MoralityDial switched to good is a...um, good thing.
** "Low Budget" includes the discovery that Kim's favorite brand, Club Banana, is an offshoot of (and sells similar wares to) Smarty Mart, the UsefulNotes/{{Walmart}} {{expy}} she looked down on. This doesn't affect her adherence to the latest Club Banana fashions at all. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Smarty Mart's boots are black, Club Banana's are onyx.]] [[HypocriticalHumor There's a difference!]]
* BrotherChuck: Star quarterback Brick Flagg showed up here and there, but he sort of vanished after a while. Although his no longer appearing was ''eventually'' justified at least for the last season, he graduated by then. He wasn't exactly the brightest bulb when off the football field, and it was mentioned that he'd ''finally'' graduated after being held back a few years. (He even votes for one of his opponents during the school election. Not that it mattered much.)
* BrownNote: Singing "Rock-A-Bye Baby" [[InstantSedation instantly puts Rufus to sleep]].
* BuffySpeak: Despite a few affectations, the slang used by teenagers in this show is either semi-contemporary or totally fabricated. They used the BuffySpeak less and less in later seasons, which lessened the [[ForcedMeme cringe factor]] of a few of them.
*** Ten reference points for nailing SarahMichelleGellar's voice.
-->'''Kim:''' We have to time this so that hovery guardy thing doesn't see us.
* BuildingSwing
* BullyHunter: She doesn't actually set out to do this, but Kim does beat up on Ron's bullies twice, including ''A Sitch In Time'''s CrowningMomentOfAwesome/[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Heartwarming]] against Drakken, Killigan and Monkey Fist. Also, [[AlphaBitch Bonnie]] breaks down crying when it looks like Kim's going to thump her.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Several of the scientists Kim helps out in her adventures. The prize has to go to Dr. Freeman from "Car Trouble," a charmingly childish and eccentrically unfettered scientist who created a house full of funny AIs just so he could have off-kilter conversations with them. In his first few minutes has a dance party with his ''toaster'' (an advanced AI, but still). Then Drakken breaks into his home. This does not immediately stop the dance party - in fact, in general he doesn't seem to mind being kidnapped at all. He eventually proves too kooky for Drakken to use mind-altering technology against, so he has to resort to trickery to get the guy to do want he wants.
** Nearly all of the villains count, some more than others. Before he was fired for [[TotallyRadical refusing to shave his mullet,]] Motor Ed was "widely regarded as the most brilliant mechanical engineer in the country." ''[[TheDitz Motor]]'' ''[[SurferDude Ed]].''
* BurnBabyBurn The end of "Stop Team Go".
* CampStraight: Senior Senior Jr.
* CantGetAwayWithNuthin': Good luck doing something even morally ambiguous in the ''Kim Possible'' world. Unless, of course, your name is Cyrus Bortel.
** Lying is also a considerable no-no.
*** Unless you are not Kim.
**** Kim gets away with quite a bit if you think about it...being a bit of a jerk to Bonnie (though she so totally deserves it, seriously she does) and Ron being examples.
* CaptainErsatz: Team Go are a pretty obvious Ersatz to Marvel Comic's PowerPack, which logically makes Shego a villainous version of Katie Power.
** Also ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', considering the group's use of themed colors, they inhabit a "Go Tower", and the fact that the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' show was pretty popular at the time.
* CaptainObvious: Ron Stoppable at his sidekick best.
* CardboardPrison: {{Lampshaded}} in the fourth season, when people keep breaking Shego out of prison while leaving Drakken to rot.
* CatapultNightmare: Ron in "Ill-Suited".
* {{Catchphrase}}s: "She/I can do anything!", "What's the sitch?", "No big", "So not the drama", "Sick and wrong", "Boo-Yah!", and Drakken's "You think you're all that, Kim Possible! But you're ''not''!"...
* CatchphraseInterruptus: In the second season Ron uses his "That would be so cool if it wasn't going to hurt us" phrase twice, but gets interrupted both times: first by Wade and another time by himself.
* CatsAreMean: Princess the Robo-Cat and Sassie the Puma.
* CantYouReadTheSign: Ron offers Kim and Monique a pickle in the Club Banana store. Monique points out the sign "No Food, Pickled or Otherwise".
* CastingGag: In "Steal Wheels", Ron and Felix become good friends. WillFriedle and JasonMarsden are good friends in RealLife.
* ChainedHeat: "Bonding"
* ChaoticStupid: Shego, when she gets excited about destroying the world, descends into this in "Car Alarm".
* CharacterDevelopment: Kim quickly goes from a [[AwesomeEgo narcissist]] with a touch of {{Jerkass}} (or at the very least [[DeadpanSnarker snark]] and bossiness) and your usual roulette of [[WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld teen issues]], to a less self-absorbed, more tolerant and compassionate young lady. Ron grows from a useless goof loser to something of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who ''can'' get the job done. Steve Loter [[GrowingTheBeard grows a nice beard]].
* CharacterTitle
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Cheerleading plus "sixteen styles of kung fu" (so she claims when she threatens Ron) means Kim can take on {{supervillain}}s and is feared by henchmen everywhere.
** Bonnie weighs 105 pounds. Kim comments that a jet pack couldn't handle the weight of the two of them, yet Kim can effortlessly carry her. This could be considered somewhat plausible, however, as they are cheerleaders, and have to carry a lot of weight quite regularly.
* ChekhovsGun: The finger trap from "The Ron Factor".
* ChekhovsGunman: Warmonga appears in an early episode in the final season, and then becomes one of the main antagonists along with Warhawk in the GrandFinale, "Graduation".
* ChewToy: Some see Drakken and Ron (seasons 1-3) as this since they never seem to catch any breaks.
* ChezRestaurant: Chez Ron from "Two to Tutor" and Chez Couteau from several episodes.
* ChickenWalker: The giant robotic flamingos.
* {{Chickification}}: Brought up from time to time regarding Kim and Shego, not all agree. %%Now keep it at that and DON'T elaborate.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Kim and Ron had been best friends since Pre-K, but they didn't openly acknowledge they had deeper feelings until ''So The Drama''.
* ChristmasEpisode: "A Very Possible Christmas".
* ChunkyUpdraft: Ron's Monkey Power.
* ClarkKenting: Hego. Bonus as Christopher [=McDonald=] voiced {{Superman}} in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' with Will Fredle.
* [[UglyGuyHotWife Classy 'N' Crass]] : She's well-mannered, impeccably groomed, gorgeous, and stylish to a fault. He's lazy, slobbish, has ears like two open car doors, is forever about two fashion trends behind, and smells like overripe fruit.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Kim practically went insane when Ron went off with Yori. Everyone else [[EveryoneCanSeeIt could tell]] she was jealous.
* ClingyMacGuffin: The Nano Tick and the Centurion Bracelet.
* CloningBlues: "Kimination Nation".
-->'''Ron:''' An imitation clone? I hate it when the bad guys cut corners.
* ClothesMakeTheLegend: Kim and her original action uniform.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: The Battlesuit, so powerful in fact that the writers had to work hard to get rid of it. Kim briefly wonders if her regular duds have some sort of luck to them.
** According to the official site, Shego's energy blasts were originally generated by some kind of mechanism in her gloves. However, the second season {{retcon}}ned her green glow into a superpower she got from an alien spacerock.
* CollapsingLair
* TheCollectorOfTheStrange: Kim and Paisley's collections of Cuddle Buddy toys. Both are put in the shade by [=DNAmy=]'s: she uses mad [[LegoGenetics genetics]] to make living cuddlebuddies.
* ComedicUnderwearExposure: The RunningGag of Ron's pants dropping.
* ComicallySmallBribe: Kim and Ron need to get into a dog show using Rufus as a "dog" but the judge does not see the made up breed Rufus is supposed to be. Ron attempts to bribe the judge with five dollars to get the judge to look past the lack of breed in the rulebook. Much to Kim's surprise, the bribe works.
* CompilationMovie: "A Sitch in Time".
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: Ron, more often than not. Biggest moment probably being from ''So the Drama'', where both Ned and Rufus try to warn him of Bueno Nacho being "Evil", only for him to react to their lack of bendy straws.
* CompressedHair: It takes no time for Kim to fit her hair under a helmet or into a ponytail, even when a gadget pops one on her head.
* ConspicuousCG: The Diablos and The Lorwardian Tripods.
* ContestWinnerCameo: Josh and Katlyn in Season 4.
* ContextSensitiveButton: {{Lampshaded}}. "These controls are supposed to be intuitive!"
* ContinuityNod: More than one might expect, especially given the producers admitted approach of [[SnapBack "Continuity by accident"]]. (Changed in [[UnCancelled season four]].)
* ContractualGenreBlindness: Several of the villains are so GenreSavvy that they indulge in BondVillainStupidity and hold tightly to the VillainBall simply because that's how these things are done, most prominently being Señor Senior Senior and occasionally Shego.
* ConvectionSchmonvection
* CoolCar: The Sloth, once Kim's brothers customise it for her. Over the fourth season, it gained rocket boosters, missiles, submarine capability and finally flight. Also, SADIE from "Car Trouble".
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Interestingly, Drakken's two plans that came closest to succeeding involved becoming this, first over Bueno Nacho, and the second over Hank's Gourmet Cupcakes ([[ContinuityNod everyone associated Dr. D with shampoo for some reason]]).
* CousinOliver: Hana
* CrazyPrepared: The military has regulations on how to deal with giant poodle attacks. The amount of gadgets our characters have falls into this on occasion:
-->'''Mr. Dr. P:''' You wore rocket skates to graduation?\\
'''Ron:''' Yeah, you never know...
** (This doubles as a ContinuityNod: He was caught without them at the start of the previous finale.)
* CreditsPushback: Season Four.
* {{Crossover}}: Kim and crew appeared in an episode of ''LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' and {{cameo}}ed in an episode of ''{{Fillmore}}''. Kim appears for a few seconds in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb''.
** The crossover with ''LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' indirectly links WesternAnimation/KimPossible to ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'', ''AmericanDragonJakeLong'' and ''TheProudFamily''.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Ron. Full stop.
* CurseCutShort: See TheAllegedCar example above and the ShoutOut to ''{{Shaft}}'' below
* CymbalBangingMonkey: The Tempus Simia.
* TheDanza: Tara, voiced by Tara Strong.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Shego.
* DarkActionGirl: Shego.
* DarkHorseVictory: "Return to Wannaweep": both Kim and her school antagonist Bonnie lose a cheerleading contest to a guy dressed as a shark from another school.
** Also Kim and Bonnie in the school's talent contest, losing to Ron clowning about to stall for time while Kim escaped from Drakken's DeathTrap. "Proving once again that quantity wins over quality", remarks Barkin.
* DawsonCasting: Parodied in "And the Mole Rat will be CGI". Heather and Quinn are 28 but play high-schoolers Kim and Ron.
* DeadpanSnarker: Shego. Constantly.
** Also Monkey-Fist: "Take a picture. It'll last longer." (said menacingly to a child-hostage staring at him.)
* {{Deathtrap}}: Practically OnceAnEpisode, the Villains leave our heroes to their own demise, except in the case of one aversion. Otherwise it's {{lampshaded}} fairly often.
* DeepImmersionGaming: "Virt-U-Ron".
* {{Defictionalization}}: Purely unintentional...[[WildMassGuessing probably]], but there has been a great deal of positive response to Taco Bell's new Beefy Nacho Burrito because after ten years they finally caved and made a real life Naco.
* DenOfIniquity: In one episode, Ron stumbles upon a room full of Drakken's henchmen sitting around taking a break.
* DescriptionCut: "The Twin Factor". What is the BigBad {{supervillain}} more likely to do with a MindControl chip?
-->'''Ron:''' Drakken has total mind control power?!\\
'''Kim:''' Yet another "TakeOverTheWorld" thing!\\
'''Ron:''' That, or he's gonna force people to listen to those stories about his twisted childhood...\\
''(cut to Shego with a chip stuck to her forehead, listening respectfully to Drakken)''\\
'''Drakken:''' Then, in ''fourth'' grade...
* DisabilitySuperpower: Yes, Felix is wheelchair bound after an accident. Yes, he is a badass even without the super robotics he has.
* [[MisterExposition Doctor Exposition]]: {{Lampshaded}} with Drakken.
-->'''Drakken:''' Shego, at last! [[MacGuffin Pure nanotronium]] is mine! The world's smallest, most powerful energy source-\\
'''Shego:''' A- Are you for real? I was ''with'' you. I know what it is, ''Doctor Exposition''.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Sassie the Puma.
* DoesThisRemindYouofAnything: In Episode 53, Kim and Shego are affected by devices known as "moodulators" that makes them--especially in the presence of the men--become affectionate at one minute, and lashing out at them in anger in the next.
** In "A Sitch in Time," Ron and Kim are talking about him moving to Norway and Kim's trying to reassure him that they'll still be able to work together.
* DontTellMama: Drakken's mother completely believes that he is a radio talk show psychologist.
* DoNotAdjustYourSet: Apparently this is so easy in Kim Possible's world that even the show's very lowest grade villains, a disgruntled Smarty Mart employee and a washed-out reality TV star, can seize control of every TV on the planet.
** At least, it's easy if you're a [[TechnoWizard Computer Genius]] like Lucre or you have access to a ''lot'' of your former show's broadcast equipment like Adrena Lynn.
* DoomedHometown: The Possible Family Home is destroyed in both Finales. Bueno Nacho suffers from villain attacks often enough.
* DoomyDoomsOfDoom The appropriately named "Spinning Tops of Doom".
* DoubleDate: Kim and Ron with Ms. Go and Mr. Barkin.
* TheDragon: Shego to Drakken. In ''A Sitch In Time'', their roles are reversed, with a steroid-fuelled Drakken serving as TheDragon to Shego.
* DramaticDrop: The Flour Bag in "Big Bother".
* DreadfulMusician: Señor Senior Junior
* DressingAsTheEnemy Ron dresses as a henchman in "Odds Man In"
* DrillSergeantNasty: In Sgt. Coach form, Mr. Barkin.
** Barkin is both types, given his military background.
* DrivingTest, complete with [[DrivingTestSmashers smashers]]: "Car Trouble".
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Ron gets no respect in school, despite his key role in regularly [[SaveTheWorld saving the world]] with Kim. Even she doesn't get much slack from people on the home front for all the times she's saved them all from doom.
** Ironically Drakken gets this as well. Despite the fact he's probably [[NearVillainVictory come closer to succeeding]] then any other foe, only Shego gets rescue from prison repeatedly.
* DuelingShows: ''TotallySpies'' was another "secret agent high-school kid" show about the same time.
** It actually predated ''Kim Possible'' (which began in 2002, while ''TotallySpies'' began in 2001).
* DysfunctionalFamily: The Go siblings.
* {{Eagleland}}: The show proudly portrays type A {{Eagleland}}. Witness "Hidden Talent", when Ron plays "The Star Spangled Banner"; "Rappin' Drakken" where Kim wears a USA outfit, and "Queen Bebe" where Kim dances with Rufus at Liberty Island, not to mention how it honors American soldiers.
* EasilyForgiven: "Ill-Suited" Ron is let off the hook despite lying to Kim, cheating at a major sporting event and stealing high-tech weaponry that put lives in danger. Kim forgave him and Barkin let him stay on the team. [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment Although he did have to do 20 crabwalk laps around the field.]] [[ValuesDissonance Though it is a stark reminder of how in Season 1 Kim was grounded just for lying.]] Although since Ron is the goofy comic relief, writer's surrogate and DesignatedHero of this particular episode he gets a pass.
** The villains, especially Drakken and Shego, live remarkably open lives given their histories of destruction, [[CardboardPrison jailbreak]] and attempts at world domination.
*** Also, consider what goes on with Drakken and Shego early in the PostScriptSeason. She gets busted out of prison on two separate occasions with no attempt to bring him along, then goes on vacation while leaving him to rot. He has his new sidekick throw her out of the lair and then capture her so she can watch [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou the new sidekick beat Kimmie]]. The next time we see them after that, they're working together as usual.
* EccentricMillionaire: Senor Senior Senior (and his son Senor Senior Junior.)
* EggSitting: With a bag of flour in "Big Bother".
** Made that much funnier when one remembers that this is [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond Will Friedle's]] second time doing so.
* EgocentricTeamNaming: Team Go, a team of superheroes made up of five siblings (Hego, [[FallenHero Shego]], Mego, and a pair of twins named Wego). It's assumed that Hego named the group as he's the leader and seems to be the eldest, but [[MeaningfulName Mego]] is the self-centered one of the group. That is not to say, however, that Hego (who is not without his personality flaws) wouldn't do such an act.
* {{Egopolis}}: Shego did it after [[TakeOverTheWorld taking over the world]]; Dr. Drakken plans to do this after his "inevitable victory".
* TheElevatorFromIpanema: The muzak in Jack Hench's waiting room is a rather Ipanema-like arrangement of the Kim Possible theme song.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: Can you blame Drew Lipsky for opting to go by Dr. Drakken?
* EmbarrassingOldPhoto: Both Kim and Ron are embarrassed by home movies of their infant years.
* EmpathyDollShot: The invading Lorwardians destroy Kim's favorite Cuddle Buddy upon arrival.
* EnemyMine: The main heroes and the main villains have to team up in the SeriesFinale to save the world [[spoiler:[[AlienInvasion from the Lorwardians]].]]
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: The very German Professor Dementor doesn't quite do the nailing of all of the idioms in English.
* EurekaMoment: Ron lapses into one when Kim mentions "Homefield" in "Ill Suited".
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Dr. Drakken and Professor Dementor both have a soft spot for their mothers.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In "Steal Wheels" Shego objects to stealing Felix's technologically advanced wheelchair, asking incredulously "What's next, stealing candy from a baby?". Subverted in that one episode later, that's exactly what ''she'' does.
** In the Halloween episode Kim lies to both her parents and Ron to go to a party. Later when she is caught the villains remark their disappointment in Kim's choice as they are loaded onto the police wagon.
** Drakken's [[MindControl mind-controlling shampoo]] fails mostly because he has to stick to "truth in labelling" laws, and so it's called "Dr. D's Brainwashing Shampoo and Cranium Rinse" and labelled "Lather, Rinse, Obey!"
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: That Kim was jealous of Yori in "Gorilla Fist". Wade and Monique for example.
** Kim and Ron's relationship in general. When they finally do become a couple in "So The Drama", Bonnie [[AlphaBitch of course]] laughs ("It finally happened. She's dating that loser!"), everyone else ''cheers'', implying they'd been expecting it to happen ''all along''.
* EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: Mr. Dr. Possible was a college classmate of Dr. Drakken.
* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys, unless you're Ron. And in Season 4, that changes when he embraces his Monkey Kung Fu.
* EvilBrit: [[AristocratsAreEvil Lord]] Monkey Fist
* EvilIsDumb: Except Ron... somehow. And Shego, for all the good it does her.
** Senor Senior Sr. has the occasional moment of clarity.
* EvilGloating: Draken most of all. Shego {{lampshades}} it: "Are you gloating to ''yourself''?"
* EvilPlan: Drakken has the tradiontional 'TakeOverTheWorld' plan but the plans get sillier
** Duff wants to create the world's largest golf course
** [=DNAmy=] steals and kidnaps to create live-sized cuddle buddies
** Monkey Fist's ambition is to be the 'ultimate monkey master'.
* EvilLaugh: This is the only thing about being a villain that Doctor Drakken knows how to do right. Also parodied by Frugal Lucre, and Senor Senior Senior's winning line "Come, son. Let us return to our lair and practice our evil laughs together."
** And how about [[SuperpoweredEvilSide "BOO-YA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!"]]
* EvilOldFolks: [[WickedCultured Senor Senior Senior]] and [[BabysitterFromHell Nanny Nane]]
* EvilSoundsDeep: Subverted with Falsetto Jones in "Rufus In Show".
* EvilTowerOfOminousness: A lot of villain lairs, though Drakken is the main offender for this one.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: "Dr. D's Brainwashing Shampoo and Cranium Rinse".
* ExtranormalInstitute: The Yamanouchi Ninja School.
* ExtremeSportExcusePlot: An episode or two.
* {{Eyedscreen}}: Used in "Car Alarm" in emphasis the Tweebs "ItsPersonal" statement.
* EyepatchOfPower: Dr. Betty Director, and her brother Gemini.
** Future Kim (portrayed as leader of Global Justice in a "Sitch in Time" [[DVDBonusContent DVD extra]]). Apparently they both wear it just to look cool; Betty thinks it gives her more respect.
* EyeScream: A mild case in "Low Budget" when Kim pretends to put on a contact lens. She pokes herself in the eye without flinching, but a single tear falls from her eye.
* FaceFramedInShadow: Senor Senior Sr. makes video messages like this, his only visible traits being [[ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes his eyes]]. Until Junior turned on the lights. Again.
* FakeBrit: Israel native Brian George as Duff Killigan.
* FakeRabies: Ron makes himself a mascot costume for the Middleton Mad Dogs, complete with foam dispensers hidden in the head. "Mad Dog foams at the mouth!"
* FakeRealTurn: The 'Hank's Gourmet Cupcakes' franchise in "Odds Man In".
* FakeStatic: Ron might have pulled this off had he not put the static crackle in between each word.
* FakeUltimateHero: TV extreme-stunt star Adrena Lynn. "How does she do it!?" Answer: she fakes it.
* FallenPrincess
* FallingChandelierOfDoom
* FamilyFriendlyFirearms: With the exception of the Area 51 soldiers (who seem to be armed with M14s and M16s) and possibly Barkin's Vietnam War flashback, no one is shown carrying or using any conventional guns.
* FantasyKitchenSink: Magical objects, superheroes, mutants, aliens, time travel, ghostly possession, and Mystical Monkey Powers.
* FastballSpecial: Ron throws Rufus at Dementor's control panel in "Ill Suited", Rufus is also a functional Shuriken if the need arises.
** Also used by [[EnemyMine Kim and Shego]] in "Go Team Go" when Kim temporarily had Hego's SuperStrength.
* FeetOfClay: Will Du, the "number one Global Justice agent".
* FeminineWomenCanCook: So, naturally, it's a blind spot for the girl who can do anything, while Ron is an excellent chef. She improves at the end of the relevant episode, though {{fanon}} makes her a LethalChef, often to physics-defying levels.
* FictionAsCoverUp: It turns out that Area51 really is filled with aliens and captured spacecraft that the government is experimenting on, and the government deliberately leaked all the rumors and conspiracy theories to the public because they knew nobody would really believe it if "the truth" ever got out. Kim and Ron are understandably perturbed that that they are being asked to help keep a secret that everybody already knows.
* FingerSnapLighter: Shego.
* FirstGirlWins: Kim is Ron's first girl, and Ron is Kim's first boy. Both in the sense that they're the first ones we see meeting each at the start of the pilot, and their {{backstory}} of becoming friends on the first day of kindergarten.
* FishPeople: Gill, after his mutation.
* {{Flanderization}}: This is most prevalent with Ron and Drakken concerning their competence.
** Drakken was initially an intimidating MadScientist, even to the point of quelling Shego in Mind Games, with a touch of AbsentMindedProfessor. However, by the end of the series he is basically an IneffectualSympatheticVillain / IronButtmonkey. Although part of Drakken's problem is likely due to DiminishingVillainThreat.
** Though he did get a [[TookALevelInBadass badass boost]] thanks to becoming a PlantPerson.
** Ron went from fairly competent PluckyComicRelief at the beginning of the series to BumblingSidekick / ButtMonkey by the end of the end of the third season. In the fourth season, he began to go through CharacterDevelopment that came with his RelationshipUpgrade with Kim that culminated in a moment of CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass in the last episode. True, he had a few instances of his bumbling self throughout the fourth season, it was most likely done for comedy.
* FlatCharacter: Monique.
* FlatWhat: Kim does this a few times, such as when she found out that Monique liked wrestling.
* ForeignQueasine: One episode had Ron and Rufus finding a bag of chips that belonged to the current client, whereupon they began eagerly eating them... at least until the client tells them the chips were made from crickets.
* FountainOfYouth: Drakken and Nanny Nane both have devices for turning people into toddlers.
* FreakyFridayFlip: Kim and Ron swap bodies, as does Drakken with a military private. {{Fanfiction}} provides Ron with the ManIFeelLikeAWoman Routine.
* FreakyIsCool: This is why Kim is attracted to Ron.
-->"You're weird. I like weird."
* FreeRangeChildren: Kim is only around 15 - 18 during the show's run and yet she can go anywhere she pleases from Tokyo to Peru to outer space as long as it doesn't involve romance. She sometimes drags her friends, and her two younger brothers, along too.
* FriendlessBackground: Arguably, both Kim and Ron, besides each other.
* FutureBadass: Almost everyone in the future part of ''A Sitch In Time''.
-->'''Ron:''' Why is everybody in the future so ''ripped?!''
* FutureLoser: In ''A Sitch in Time'', it's shown that Brick becomes this. Ron even [[LampshadeHanging comments on it]].
* AbhorrentAdmirer: In "Gorilla Fist", [=DNAmy=] to Monkey Fist.
* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: "A Sitch in Time"
* AccidentalAthlete: How Ron becomes a running back.
* AccidentalPublicConfession: When Ron and Kim (sorta) show up to ask Monty Fisk for help in finding a ninja who stole an artifact, Monkey Fist does a Type 2 and tells them that he was the ninja.
* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: "Ron Millionaire"
* ActionDressRip "Trading Faces"
** "October 31st" does this in a ShoutOut to JamesBond.
* ActionGirl: Kim, Yori, even Zita when she needed to be, making Ron ask "Are all girls like this, or just the ones I know?"
** Both Kim and Yori double as The ActionGirlfriend.
* ActionHoggingOpening
* ActorAllusion: The Fearless Ferret episode was a cross-spoof of the 60s ''Series/{{Batman}}'' series and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. Will Friedle was the voice actor for ''Beyond'''s Terry [=McGinnis=].
** This [[Series/SmartGuy isn't the first time Tahj Mowry's played a kid genius on a Disney show.]]
** Also, Chris [=McDonald=] (Hego) voiced {{Superman}} on an episode of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' with Will Friedle.
** In "And The Molerat Will Be CGI", Monique, played by Raven-Symone, gossips at a table with Kim, Bonnie and teen idol actress Heather, played by Anneliese Van Der Pol, who plays Chelsea Daniels in ''ThatsSoRaven''. Monique and Heather can really relate to each other.
** During a scene in ''The Cupid Effect'', [[ItMakesSenseInContext while ad-libbing a love note to Wade's Mom]], Señor Senior Sr. (Ricardo Montalban) casually tosses in a line about chasing the wealth of the world " [[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan 'round perdition's flame]]".
* AdamWesting: Adam West appears as "Timothy North" aka The Fearless Ferret, as mentioned above.
* AdiposeRex: King Rodingon, who was replaced by King Wallace in the episode "Royal Pain".
* AdrenalineMakeover: Over the entire fourth season, Ron slowly worked toward becoming cool enough to be Kim Possible's boyfriend. In the finale, when a threat downs the girl who can do anything, the sidekick steps up and embraces his Monkey Kung Fu.
* AnAesop: Most every episode. Sometimes subverted, sometimes [[AesopAmnesia forgotten]] from a previous episode.
** Hilariously so in the second episode to feature Gill as the villain:
-->Normally I would say we learned that mistrust and paranoia were bad...except those were the things that saved us.
** And a deliberately warped one in the episode on healthy eating. Ron delivers the [[AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle "I learned something today" speech]] to camera (and gets the wrong moral, telling us to [[FantasticAesop stay out of mutagenic mad-science chemicals that will turn you into a monster]] instead of eating healthy food), while a growing crowd behind him [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall wonders who on Earth he's actually actually addressing]].
* AesopAmnesia:
** When will Ron ever learn that being popular just isn't him and that he should believe in the friends that actually like him for him?
** Kim learns that her brothers can be helpful and not just nuisances at least twice, and to disregard peer pressure from Bonnie a good few times.
* AffablyEvil: The Seniors, especially Senor Senior, Sr. He treats his villainy as more of a part-time hobby than anything and doesn't seem to be a bad person at all. Ron says that Sr. is a bad man with good manners.
** [=DNAmy=] is the sweetest, kindest, sociopathic geneticist you could ever hope to meet. She's not a bad person...she just wants to pervert nature and science to create life size abominations unto all things good. Or "Cuddle Buddies" as she likes to call them. Actually, Cuddle Buddies are an homage to Beanie Babies, and she just fell in love with them to the point where she started creating them.
* AffectionateParody: The show itself sets out to do to JamesBond movies what Series/{{Buffy|the Vampire Slayer}} did to horror films. One episode however was a spoof of the old ''Series/{{Batman}}'' tv series, with AdamWest playing...wait for it, Timothy North, the [[AdamWesting eccentric actor]] who really believed he was the Fearless Ferret.
* AirGuitar: Motor Ed and Drakken do it a few times in the show in the episodes which have Motor Ed. [[VerbalTic Seriously.]]
* AirVentPassageway: Kim, Ron, and Rufus use air vents to get ''into'' places, such as Ron's panic room in 'Odds Man In' and The Bermuda Triangle in [[TheMovie 'So the Drama']]
* AlienAbduction: Drakken is abducted by TheGreys once, and the Lowardians snatch both him Drakken and Kim.
* AlienInvasion: [[spoiler:The Lorwardians invade Earth to get revenge for being tricked by Drakken and beaten up by Kim.]]
** [[spoiler: "So payback's the sitch!"]]
* AliensAndMonsters: Considering the characters in the show, the Lorwardian invaders and the monsters made by the {{mad scientist}}s are just icing on the cake.
* AllAnimalsAreDogs: Subverted in an episode where Kim and Ron need to enter a dog show to gain access to a thief's home. Rufus needed to be taught how to act like a dog.
* AllJustADream "Rewriting History"
** ...OrWasItADream
* AllUpToYou
* TheAllegedCar: The Roth SL Coupe (a.k.a. the Sloth) Kim's father gives her, initially.
-->'''Kim:''' What a piece of--\\
'''Mr Dr P.:''' [[CurseCutShort History!]]
** Ron's scooter also qualifies.
* AlmightyJanitor: "Job Unfair"
* AlmostKiss: Way too many in Season 4 when Kim & Ron were about to kiss. Wade, Monique, and Bonnie were just a few of the people who interrupted would be kisses between Kim and Ron. WordOfGod admitted it was an intriguing gag.
* AlphaBitch: Bonnie Rockwaller.
* AmazonChaser: Ron seems to have a thing for women like this. He even {{lampshade}}s it.
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Bonnie Rockwaller. Heck, she could just be a tanned white girl. They never say.
* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Some of the animals in the show exhibit intelligence higher than normal for their species. The best example being the TeamPet Rufus.
* AmusementParkOfDoom: Adrena Lynn's DeathCourse.
* AndYouThoughtItWasAGame: Cousin Larry.
* {{Angrish}}: Dr. Drakken falls into this whenever he is mocked by his assistant.
* {{Animorphism}}: Kim was turned into a monkey, and Ron was turned into a beaver (though not at the same time).
* ArcWelding: In his second episode, Monkey Fist revealed that he had his body modified to gain more monkey-like features. In [=DNAmy=]'s second episode she reveals she was the one who made those modifications.
* {{Area 51}}
* AristocratsAreEvil: Lord Monkey Fist is an actual [[EvilBrit British]] noble.
* ArmsDealer: Jack Hench's [=HenchCo=] operation is a straightforward (if somewhat toned down to fit the KP universe) example. May also describe a few other characters, such as Cyrus Bortle auctioning off his [[EmotionBomb Moodulator chips]].
* ArtShift: The episode "Virt-U-Ron" featured a blockier style of art to show that they were in a video game.
* ArtEvolution: Monique went from have black dot eyes, to white eyes with pupils by the second season.
** Also, the characters had more movement in the first two seasons than in later ones. The animation also got smoother as time went on.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: "Rufus vs Commodore Puddles" plus The Dimension Monster and "Gronde"
* AwesomeMcCoolname: You have three guesses on this. The first two don't count.
* BackStory: Shego was a superhero, till she [[StartOfDarkness got fed up]] [[EvilIsCool with that]]. Kim set up a website for odd jobs until a typo from someone in trouble started her on hero work.
* BadBoss: Gemini's secret headquarters is full of [[TrapDoor trap doors]] that he uses to dispose of {{Mooks}} [[YouHaveFailedMe who have "failed" him]], or just argued against him.
** One of said {{Mooks}} where GenreSavvy enough ''not'' to sit on the offered chair. It didn't help though but point for the effort.
* {{Badass}}: Kim, chiefly. Also, Shego, Dr. Director and number of others.
* BadassBoast: Whether claiming to know sixteen styles of kung fu or listing some of her impressive accomplishments, Kim likes to do this, usually in a breezy way.
* {{Badass Grand|pa}}ma: Kim's Nana Possible used to do much the same sort of thing that her granddaughter does now, and still indulges in it on occasion.
** [[AffablyEvil Senor Senior Sr]] is a legend of extreme sports.
* BadassFamily: The Possible family. Also Shego's family, who are a team of superheroes.
* BadFuture: ''[[EvilOverlord The Supreme One]]'' [[TakeOverTheWorld takes over the world]] and rules it from her [[EvilTowerOfOminousness citadel of Doom]] in Shegoton, formerly Middleton in ''[[TheMovie A Sitch in Time]]''.
* BadVibrations: Done numerous times, including D N Amy's [[Franchise/JurassicPark dinosaur]], [[Franchise/JurassicPark complete with a vibrating tub of nacho cheese]].
* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: Kim watching Rufus in the episode "Adventures in Rufus Sitting". Kim and Ron watching Hana in the episode "Oh No! Yono!".
* BareYourMidriff: Kim showed this off with every outfit she had in the first season. The animators eventually dropped the LimitedWardrobe and by the end of the series it was all but gone. Her last midriff outfit to go was her classic mission outfit in "Clothes Minded".
** {{Lampshaded}} by Kim's father in the aforementioned episode. When he hears that Kim is in the market for a new mission outfit, he gives her a very large, cumbersome suit of PoweredArmor to wear.
-->"It's been my dream to see you save the world ''without'' baring your midriff."
** Why stop with Kim? There's Bonnie and the rest of the cheerleaders, and few background female characters are like this too.
* BasementDweller: Frugal Lucre.
* BatmanColdOpen: Half of the teasers in the show. The other half were often related to a subplot relating to Kim's personal life that lead into the rest of the episode.
* BattleAura: Ron's Monkey Powers, The Go powers.
* BattleCouple: Kim and Ron. Albeit Kim is by far the more "combat effective" of the two, but the series does make it a point that she definitely works better with Ron than without him. [[spoiler:Although it seems the two fit this trope fully by the end of "Graduation".]]
* BattleTops: The Spinning Tops of [[DoomyDoomsOfDoom Doom]].
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: {{Averted}} in "The Truth Hurts" when Kim, under the influence of a truth ray, admits to picking her nose when nobody's looking. Played straight most of the time: the character might get dusty, muddy or soaked with water, but only a few moments. It's most obvious when Kim and Shego land in a mud bath in "Mad Dogs And Aliens", but are back to being spotless at the next scene change.
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: In the episode "Big Bother", Yori told Kim Possible that Ron Stoppable was her destiny. Of course, this [[WMG/KimPossible could be her way]] of saying IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy.
* BeleagueredAssistant: Shego to Drakken.
* BerserkButton: ''A Sitch in Time'': [[spoiler:"YOU'RE the reason I moved to Norway? You're the reason I've been eating MEAT CAKES?"]]
** Also Wade, after Team Impossible [[spoiler:spikes his computer when he attempts to hack them. He comes back later in the episode in person to deal with them. "Nobody, ''nobody'' spikes my system!"]]
** "THIS IS THE LAST STRAW! YOU TOOK...AWAY...THE BENDY STRAWS!"
* BetweenMyLegs: This shot shows up fairly often, usually on Kim or Shego.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Drakken]] and [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Ron]] are quite dangerous when they stop acting silly and [[LetsGetDangerous actually try]]. Lucre was also a surprisingly effective villain even with his lame gimmicks.
* BigBad: [[MadScientist Dr. Drakken]] and [[TheDragon Shego]] are the primary antagonists, and the ones that get closest to their goals.
* BigEater: Ron Stoppable and Rufus.
* BigNo: Twice in Season 4, the later is followed by DisturbedDoves. Ron has a couple throughout the series (including a truly epic one in "A Very Possible Christmas" (Season 2, episode 16), but Kim lets one out in "Trading Faces" (Season 4, Episode 3) that frankly sounds halfway between a BigNo and a Tarzan yell.
* BigOlUnibrow: Doctor Drakken.
* BilingualBonus: The same episode Ron has to take care of a sack of flour, the Stoppables adopt a daughter whose name means [[StealthPun "flower"]] in Japanese.
* {{Bizarrchitecture}}: The Bueno Nacho restaurants.
* BlackBestFriend: Monique, Wade to some degree.
* BlackSheep: Shego.
* BlandNameProduct
* BlessedAreTheCheesemakers: The Cheese Building (made of Wisconsin Swiss), The "History of Cheese" book, The Cheese Fountain, etc.
* BondVillainStupidity: Lampshaded in "Animal Attraction".
-->'''Senor Senior Sr:''' A proper villain always leaves his foe when he's about to expire.\\
'''Senor Senior Jr:''' Why?\\
'''Senor Senior Sr:''' Well, it would be bad form just to lull about, waiting for it.\\
'''Senor Senior Jr:''' Why?\\
'''Senor Senior Sr:''' Tradition!
** Falsetto Jones notably subverts it to watch the DeathTrap in action, even after Kim asks if he's going to leave, to the point he was a one-shot villain ''because'' of his competence.
-->'''Kim:''' Alright, but I warn you, you're breaking with villain tradition here.
* BorrowedCatchphrase: When Ron is fretting over an EldritchAbomination after his baby sister Kim tries to assure him of the number of times they have [[DwayneJohnson smacked down]] the BigBad before.
* ABoyAndHisX: Ron and his naked mole rat.
* BoyBand: The Oh Boyz
* BraggingThemeTune
* BrainlessBeauty: {{Subverted}} with most of the characters, though most notably by [[HotScientist Vivian Francis Porter]].
* BrattyHalfPint: Cousin Shawn, later Artie Smarty.
* BreakoutCharacter: Shego & Drakken. They were just meant to be one of the many villains in the show. Shego was simply Drakken's sidekick; Her color scheme was chosen because green and black are "villain" colors and she didn't even have her superpowers. Drakken was more pushy, and aggressive then he turned out to be post-Season 1. They soon became main characters and arguably the ''mascots'' of the series (Besides, y'know, WesternAnimation/KimPossible, Ron and Rufus.)
* BreakingTheFourthWall: "The Ron Factor", Kim stops the opening credits to ask the audience. "Wait, You Want Ron?" Given how this was Steve Loter's first episode as director, that's a considerable bit of irony, since under his direction Ron would take the spotlight away from the show's title character.
* BreakTheCutie: You'd think Drakken would have learnt after he, Killigan and Monkey Fist tried to do this to a five year old Kim. Nope, after getting thoroughly trounced Drew wants another shot at it. Monty and Duff on the other hand learn their lesson.
* BrilliantButLazy: Shego is considerably more competent than any of the other villains, but shows no real initiative and spends much of her time lounging around reading magazines.
** Also one possible [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation interpretation]] of Ron -- [[CowardlySidekick usually bumbling]], but able to [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass come through when it counts]].
* BringIt: Kim's attitude in a nutshell, to the point of imitating [[DwayneJohnson The Rock]] more than once.
* BrokenAesop: In "The Twin Factor", Kim describes a [[MindControlDevice mind control chip]] as "ferociously unethical". [[HypocriticalHumor Later, she uses it on her brothers while babysitting.]]
** The morality of mind control goes right out the window when Kim's own father brainwashes her. Or the previous episode where Shego having her MoralityDial switched to good is a...um, good thing.
** "Low Budget" includes the discovery that Kim's favorite brand, Club Banana, is an offshoot of (and sells similar wares to) Smarty Mart, the UsefulNotes/{{Walmart}} {{expy}} she looked down on. This doesn't affect her adherence to the latest Club Banana fashions at all. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Smarty Mart's boots are black, Club Banana's are onyx.]] [[HypocriticalHumor There's a difference!]]
* BrotherChuck: Star quarterback Brick Flagg showed up here and there, but he sort of vanished after a while. Although his no longer appearing was ''eventually'' justified at least for the last season, he graduated by then. He wasn't exactly the brightest bulb when off the football field, and it was mentioned that he'd ''finally'' graduated after being held back a few years. (He even votes for one of his opponents during the school election. Not that it mattered much.)
* BrownNote: Singing "Rock-A-Bye Baby" [[InstantSedation instantly puts Rufus to sleep]].
* BuffySpeak: Despite a few affectations, the slang used by teenagers in this show is either semi-contemporary or totally fabricated. They used the BuffySpeak less and less in later seasons, which lessened the [[ForcedMeme cringe factor]] of a few of them.
*** Ten reference points for nailing SarahMichelleGellar's voice.
-->'''Kim:''' We have to time this so that hovery guardy thing doesn't see us.
* BuildingSwing
* BullyHunter: She doesn't actually set out to do this, but Kim does beat up on Ron's bullies twice, including ''A Sitch In Time'''s CrowningMomentOfAwesome/[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Heartwarming]] against Drakken, Killigan and Monkey Fist. Also, [[AlphaBitch Bonnie]] breaks down crying when it looks like Kim's going to thump her.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Several of the scientists Kim helps out in her adventures. The prize has to go to Dr. Freeman from "Car Trouble," a charmingly childish and eccentrically unfettered scientist who created a house full of funny AIs just so he could have off-kilter conversations with them. In his first few minutes has a dance party with his ''toaster'' (an advanced AI, but still). Then Drakken breaks into his home. This does not immediately stop the dance party - in fact, in general he doesn't seem to mind being kidnapped at all. He eventually proves too kooky for Drakken to use mind-altering technology against, so he has to resort to trickery to get the guy to do want he wants.
** Nearly all of the villains count, some more than others. Before he was fired for [[TotallyRadical refusing to shave his mullet,]] Motor Ed was "widely regarded as the most brilliant mechanical engineer in the country." ''[[TheDitz Motor]]'' ''[[SurferDude Ed]].''
* BurnBabyBurn The end of "Stop Team Go".
* CampStraight: Senior Senior Jr.
* CantGetAwayWithNuthin': Good luck doing something even morally ambiguous in the ''Kim Possible'' world. Unless, of course, your name is Cyrus Bortel.
** Lying is also a considerable no-no.
*** Unless you are not Kim.
**** Kim gets away with quite a bit if you think about it...being a bit of a jerk to Bonnie (though she so totally deserves it, seriously she does) and Ron being examples.
* CaptainErsatz: Team Go are a pretty obvious Ersatz to Marvel Comic's PowerPack, which logically makes Shego a villainous version of Katie Power.
** Also ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', considering the group's use of themed colors, they inhabit a "Go Tower", and the fact that the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' show was pretty popular at the time.
* CaptainObvious: Ron Stoppable at his sidekick best.
* CardboardPrison: {{Lampshaded}} in the fourth season, when people keep breaking Shego out of prison while leaving Drakken to rot.
* CatapultNightmare: Ron in "Ill-Suited".
* {{Catchphrase}}s: "She/I can do anything!", "What's the sitch?", "No big", "So not the drama", "Sick and wrong", "Boo-Yah!", and Drakken's "You think you're all that, Kim Possible! But you're ''not''!"...
* CatchphraseInterruptus: In the second season Ron uses his "That would be so cool if it wasn't going to hurt us" phrase twice, but gets interrupted both times: first by Wade and another time by himself.
* CatsAreMean: Princess the Robo-Cat and Sassie the Puma.
* CantYouReadTheSign: Ron offers Kim and Monique a pickle in the Club Banana store. Monique points out the sign "No Food, Pickled or Otherwise".
* CastingGag: In "Steal Wheels", Ron and Felix become good friends. WillFriedle and JasonMarsden are good friends in RealLife.
* ChainedHeat: "Bonding"
* ChaoticStupid: Shego, when she gets excited about destroying the world, descends into this in "Car Alarm".
* CharacterDevelopment: Kim quickly goes from a [[AwesomeEgo narcissist]] with a touch of {{Jerkass}} (or at the very least [[DeadpanSnarker snark]] and bossiness) and your usual roulette of [[WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld teen issues]], to a less self-absorbed, more tolerant and compassionate young lady. Ron grows from a useless goof loser to something of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who ''can'' get the job done. Steve Loter [[GrowingTheBeard grows a nice beard]].
* CharacterTitle
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Cheerleading plus "sixteen styles of kung fu" (so she claims when she threatens Ron) means Kim can take on {{supervillain}}s and is feared by henchmen everywhere.
** Bonnie weighs 105 pounds. Kim comments that a jet pack couldn't handle the weight of the two of them, yet Kim can effortlessly carry her. This could be considered somewhat plausible, however, as they are cheerleaders, and have to carry a lot of weight quite regularly.
* ChekhovsGun: The finger trap from "The Ron Factor".
* ChekhovsGunman: Warmonga appears in an early episode in the final season, and then becomes one of the main antagonists along with Warhawk in the GrandFinale, "Graduation".
* ChewToy: Some see Drakken and Ron (seasons 1-3) as this since they never seem to catch any breaks.
* ChezRestaurant: Chez Ron from "Two to Tutor" and Chez Couteau from several episodes.
* ChickenWalker: The giant robotic flamingos.
* {{Chickification}}: Brought up from time to time regarding Kim and Shego, not all agree. %%Now keep it at that and DON'T elaborate.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Kim and Ron had been best friends since Pre-K, but they didn't openly acknowledge they had deeper feelings until ''So The Drama''.
* ChristmasEpisode: "A Very Possible Christmas".
* ChunkyUpdraft: Ron's Monkey Power.
* ClarkKenting: Hego. Bonus as Christopher [=McDonald=] voiced {{Superman}} in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' with Will Fredle.
* [[UglyGuyHotWife Classy 'N' Crass]] : She's well-mannered, impeccably groomed, gorgeous, and stylish to a fault. He's lazy, slobbish, has ears like two open car doors, is forever about two fashion trends behind, and smells like overripe fruit.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Kim practically went insane when Ron went off with Yori. Everyone else [[EveryoneCanSeeIt could tell]] she was jealous.
* ClingyMacGuffin: The Nano Tick and the Centurion Bracelet.
* CloningBlues: "Kimination Nation".
-->'''Ron:''' An imitation clone? I hate it when the bad guys cut corners.
* ClothesMakeTheLegend: Kim and her original action uniform.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: The Battlesuit, so powerful in fact that the writers had to work hard to get rid of it. Kim briefly wonders if her regular duds have some sort of luck to them.
** According to the official site, Shego's energy blasts were originally generated by some kind of mechanism in her gloves. However, the second season {{retcon}}ned her green glow into a superpower she got from an alien spacerock.
* CollapsingLair
* TheCollectorOfTheStrange: Kim and Paisley's collections of Cuddle Buddy toys. Both are put in the shade by [=DNAmy=]'s: she uses mad [[LegoGenetics genetics]] to make living cuddlebuddies.
* ComedicUnderwearExposure: The RunningGag of Ron's pants dropping.
* ComicallySmallBribe: Kim and Ron need to get into a dog show using Rufus as a "dog" but the judge does not see the made up breed Rufus is supposed to be. Ron attempts to bribe the judge with five dollars to get the judge to look past the lack of breed in the rulebook. Much to Kim's surprise, the bribe works.
* CompilationMovie: "A Sitch in Time".
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: Ron, more often than not. Biggest moment probably being from ''So the Drama'', where both Ned and Rufus try to warn him of Bueno Nacho being "Evil", only for him to react to their lack of bendy straws.
* CompressedHair: It takes no time for Kim to fit her hair under a helmet or into a ponytail, even when a gadget pops one on her head.
* ConspicuousCG: The Diablos and The Lorwardian Tripods.
* ContestWinnerCameo: Josh and Katlyn in Season 4.
* ContextSensitiveButton: {{Lampshaded}}. "These controls are supposed to be intuitive!"
* ContinuityNod: More than one might expect, especially given the producers admitted approach of [[SnapBack "Continuity by accident"]]. (Changed in [[UnCancelled season four]].)
* ContractualGenreBlindness: Several of the villains are so GenreSavvy that they indulge in BondVillainStupidity and hold tightly to the VillainBall simply because that's how these things are done, most prominently being Señor Senior Senior and occasionally Shego.
* ConvectionSchmonvection
* CoolCar: The Sloth, once Kim's brothers customise it for her. Over the fourth season, it gained rocket boosters, missiles, submarine capability and finally flight. Also, SADIE from "Car Trouble".
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Interestingly, Drakken's two plans that came closest to succeeding involved becoming this, first over Bueno Nacho, and the second over Hank's Gourmet Cupcakes ([[ContinuityNod everyone associated Dr. D with shampoo for some reason]]).
* CousinOliver: Hana
* CrazyPrepared: The military has regulations on how to deal with giant poodle attacks. The amount of gadgets our characters have falls into this on occasion:
-->'''Mr. Dr. P:''' You wore rocket skates to graduation?\\
'''Ron:''' Yeah, you never know...
** (This doubles as a ContinuityNod: He was caught without them at the start of the previous finale.)
* CreditsPushback: Season Four.
* {{Crossover}}: Kim and crew appeared in an episode of ''LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' and {{cameo}}ed in an episode of ''{{Fillmore}}''. Kim appears for a few seconds in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb''.
** The crossover with ''LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' indirectly links WesternAnimation/KimPossible to ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'', ''AmericanDragonJakeLong'' and ''TheProudFamily''.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Ron. Full stop.
* CurseCutShort: See TheAllegedCar example above and the ShoutOut to ''{{Shaft}}'' below
* CymbalBangingMonkey: The Tempus Simia.
* TheDanza: Tara, voiced by Tara Strong.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Shego.
* DarkActionGirl: Shego.
* DarkHorseVictory: "Return to Wannaweep": both Kim and her school antagonist Bonnie lose a cheerleading contest to a guy dressed as a shark from another school.
** Also Kim and Bonnie in the school's talent contest, losing to Ron clowning about to stall for time while Kim escaped from Drakken's DeathTrap. "Proving once again that quantity wins over quality", remarks Barkin.
* DawsonCasting: Parodied in "And the Mole Rat will be CGI". Heather and Quinn are 28 but play high-schoolers Kim and Ron.
* DeadpanSnarker: Shego. Constantly.
** Also Monkey-Fist: "Take a picture. It'll last longer." (said menacingly to a child-hostage staring at him.)
* {{Deathtrap}}: Practically OnceAnEpisode, the Villains leave our heroes to their own demise, except in the case of one aversion. Otherwise it's {{lampshaded}} fairly often.
* DeepImmersionGaming: "Virt-U-Ron".
* {{Defictionalization}}: Purely unintentional...[[WildMassGuessing probably]], but there has been a great deal of positive response to Taco Bell's new Beefy Nacho Burrito because after ten years they finally caved and made a real life Naco.
* DenOfIniquity: In one episode, Ron stumbles upon a room full of Drakken's henchmen sitting around taking a break.
* DescriptionCut: "The Twin Factor". What is the BigBad {{supervillain}} more likely to do with a MindControl chip?
-->'''Ron:''' Drakken has total mind control power?!\\
'''Kim:''' Yet another "TakeOverTheWorld" thing!\\
'''Ron:''' That, or he's gonna force people to listen to those stories about his twisted childhood...\\
''(cut to Shego with a chip stuck to her forehead, listening respectfully to Drakken)''\\
'''Drakken:''' Then, in ''fourth'' grade...
* DisabilitySuperpower: Yes, Felix is wheelchair bound after an accident. Yes, he is a badass even without the super robotics he has.
* [[MisterExposition Doctor Exposition]]: {{Lampshaded}} with Drakken.
-->'''Drakken:''' Shego, at last! [[MacGuffin Pure nanotronium]] is mine! The world's smallest, most powerful energy source-\\
'''Shego:''' A- Are you for real? I was ''with'' you. I know what it is, ''Doctor Exposition''.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Sassie the Puma.
* DoesThisRemindYouofAnything: In Episode 53, Kim and Shego are affected by devices known as "moodulators" that makes them--especially in the presence of the men--become affectionate at one minute, and lashing out at them in anger in the next.
** In "A Sitch in Time," Ron and Kim are talking about him moving to Norway and Kim's trying to reassure him that they'll still be able to work together.
* DontTellMama: Drakken's mother completely believes that he is a radio talk show psychologist.
* DoNotAdjustYourSet: Apparently this is so easy in Kim Possible's world that even the show's very lowest grade villains, a disgruntled Smarty Mart employee and a washed-out reality TV star, can seize control of every TV on the planet.
** At least, it's easy if you're a [[TechnoWizard Computer Genius]] like Lucre or you have access to a ''lot'' of your former show's broadcast equipment like Adrena Lynn.
* DoomedHometown: The Possible Family Home is destroyed in both Finales. Bueno Nacho suffers from villain attacks often enough.
* DoomyDoomsOfDoom The appropriately named "Spinning Tops of Doom".
* DoubleDate: Kim and Ron with Ms. Go and Mr. Barkin.
* TheDragon: Shego to Drakken. In ''A Sitch In Time'', their roles are reversed, with a steroid-fuelled Drakken serving as TheDragon to Shego.
* DramaticDrop: The Flour Bag in "Big Bother".
* DreadfulMusician: Señor Senior Junior
* DressingAsTheEnemy Ron dresses as a henchman in "Odds Man In"
* DrillSergeantNasty: In Sgt. Coach form, Mr. Barkin.
** Barkin is both types, given his military background.
* DrivingTest, complete with [[DrivingTestSmashers smashers]]: "Car Trouble".
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Ron gets no respect in school, despite his key role in regularly [[SaveTheWorld saving the world]] with Kim. Even she doesn't get much slack from people on the home front for all the times she's saved them all from doom.
** Ironically Drakken gets this as well. Despite the fact he's probably [[NearVillainVictory come closer to succeeding]] then any other foe, only Shego gets rescue from prison repeatedly.
* DuelingShows: ''TotallySpies'' was another "secret agent high-school kid" show about the same time.
** It actually predated ''Kim Possible'' (which began in 2002, while ''TotallySpies'' began in 2001).
* DysfunctionalFamily: The Go siblings.
* {{Eagleland}}: The show proudly portrays type A {{Eagleland}}. Witness "Hidden Talent", when Ron plays "The Star Spangled Banner"; "Rappin' Drakken" where Kim wears a USA outfit, and "Queen Bebe" where Kim dances with Rufus at Liberty Island, not to mention how it honors American soldiers.
* EasilyForgiven: "Ill-Suited" Ron is let off the hook despite lying to Kim, cheating at a major sporting event and stealing high-tech weaponry that put lives in danger. Kim forgave him and Barkin let him stay on the team. [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment Although he did have to do 20 crabwalk laps around the field.]] [[ValuesDissonance Though it is a stark reminder of how in Season 1 Kim was grounded just for lying.]] Although since Ron is the goofy comic relief, writer's surrogate and DesignatedHero of this particular episode he gets a pass.
** The villains, especially Drakken and Shego, live remarkably open lives given their histories of destruction, [[CardboardPrison jailbreak]] and attempts at world domination.
*** Also, consider what goes on with Drakken and Shego early in the PostScriptSeason. She gets busted out of prison on two separate occasions with no attempt to bring him along, then goes on vacation while leaving him to rot. He has his new sidekick throw her out of the lair and then capture her so she can watch [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou the new sidekick beat Kimmie]]. The next time we see them after that, they're working together as usual.
* EccentricMillionaire: Senor Senior Senior (and his son Senor Senior Junior.)
* EggSitting: With a bag of flour in "Big Bother".
** Made that much funnier when one remembers that this is [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond Will Friedle's]] second time doing so.
* EgocentricTeamNaming: Team Go, a team of superheroes made up of five siblings (Hego, [[FallenHero Shego]], Mego, and a pair of twins named Wego). It's assumed that Hego named the group as he's the leader and seems to be the eldest, but [[MeaningfulName Mego]] is the self-centered one of the group. That is not to say, however, that Hego (who is not without his personality flaws) wouldn't do such an act.
* {{Egopolis}}: Shego did it after [[TakeOverTheWorld taking over the world]]; Dr. Drakken plans to do this after his "inevitable victory".
* TheElevatorFromIpanema: The muzak in Jack Hench's waiting room is a rather Ipanema-like arrangement of the Kim Possible theme song.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: Can you blame Drew Lipsky for opting to go by Dr. Drakken?
* EmbarrassingOldPhoto: Both Kim and Ron are embarrassed by home movies of their infant years.
* EmpathyDollShot: The invading Lorwardians destroy Kim's favorite Cuddle Buddy upon arrival.
* EnemyMine: The main heroes and the main villains have to team up in the SeriesFinale to save the world [[spoiler:[[AlienInvasion from the Lorwardians]].]]
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: The very German Professor Dementor doesn't quite do the nailing of all of the idioms in English.
* EurekaMoment: Ron lapses into one when Kim mentions "Homefield" in "Ill Suited".
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Dr. Drakken and Professor Dementor both have a soft spot for their mothers.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In "Steal Wheels" Shego objects to stealing Felix's technologically advanced wheelchair, asking incredulously "What's next, stealing candy from a baby?". Subverted in that one episode later, that's exactly what ''she'' does.
** In the Halloween episode Kim lies to both her parents and Ron to go to a party. Later when she is caught the villains remark their disappointment in Kim's choice as they are loaded onto the police wagon.
** Drakken's [[MindControl mind-controlling shampoo]] fails mostly because he has to stick to "truth in labelling" laws, and so it's called "Dr. D's Brainwashing Shampoo and Cranium Rinse" and labelled "Lather, Rinse, Obey!"
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: That Kim was jealous of Yori in "Gorilla Fist". Wade and Monique for example.
** Kim and Ron's relationship in general. When they finally do become a couple in "So The Drama", Bonnie [[AlphaBitch of course]] laughs ("It finally happened. She's dating that loser!"), everyone else ''cheers'', implying they'd been expecting it to happen ''all along''.
* EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: Mr. Dr. Possible was a college classmate of Dr. Drakken.
* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys, unless you're Ron. And in Season 4, that changes when he embraces his Monkey Kung Fu.
* EvilBrit: [[AristocratsAreEvil Lord]] Monkey Fist
* EvilIsDumb: Except Ron... somehow. And Shego, for all the good it does her.
** Senor Senior Sr. has the occasional moment of clarity.
* EvilGloating: Draken most of all. Shego {{lampshades}} it: "Are you gloating to ''yourself''?"
* EvilPlan: Drakken has the tradiontional 'TakeOverTheWorld' plan but the plans get sillier
** Duff wants to create the world's largest golf course
** [=DNAmy=] steals and kidnaps to create live-sized cuddle buddies
** Monkey Fist's ambition is to be the 'ultimate monkey master'.
* EvilLaugh: This is the only thing about being a villain that Doctor Drakken knows how to do right. Also parodied by Frugal Lucre, and Senor Senior Senior's winning line "Come, son. Let us return to our lair and practice our evil laughs together."
** And how about [[SuperpoweredEvilSide "BOO-YA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!"]]
* EvilOldFolks: [[WickedCultured Senor Senior Senior]] and [[BabysitterFromHell Nanny Nane]]
* EvilSoundsDeep: Subverted with Falsetto Jones in "Rufus In Show".
* EvilTowerOfOminousness: A lot of villain lairs, though Drakken is the main offender for this one.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: "Dr. D's Brainwashing Shampoo and Cranium Rinse".
* ExtranormalInstitute: The Yamanouchi Ninja School.
* ExtremeSportExcusePlot: An episode or two.
* {{Eyedscreen}}: Used in "Car Alarm" in emphasis the Tweebs "ItsPersonal" statement.
* EyepatchOfPower: Dr. Betty Director, and her brother Gemini.
** Future Kim (portrayed as leader of Global Justice in a "Sitch in Time" [[DVDBonusContent DVD extra]]). Apparently they both wear it just to look cool; Betty thinks it gives her more respect.
* EyeScream: A mild case in "Low Budget" when Kim pretends to put on a contact lens. She pokes herself in the eye without flinching, but a single tear falls from her eye.
* FaceFramedInShadow: Senor Senior Sr. makes video messages like this, his only visible traits being [[ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes his eyes]]. Until Junior turned on the lights. Again.
* FakeBrit: Israel native Brian George as Duff Killigan.
* FakeRabies: Ron makes himself a mascot costume for the Middleton Mad Dogs, complete with foam dispensers hidden in the head. "Mad Dog foams at the mouth!"
* FakeRealTurn: The 'Hank's Gourmet Cupcakes' franchise in "Odds Man In".
* FakeStatic: Ron might have pulled this off had he not put the static crackle in between each word.
* FakeUltimateHero: TV extreme-stunt star Adrena Lynn. "How does she do it!?" Answer: she fakes it.
* FallenPrincess
* FallingChandelierOfDoom
* FamilyFriendlyFirearms: With the exception of the Area 51 soldiers (who seem to be armed with M14s and M16s) and possibly Barkin's Vietnam War flashback, no one is shown carrying or using any conventional guns.
* FantasyKitchenSink: Magical objects, superheroes, mutants, aliens, time travel, ghostly possession, and Mystical Monkey Powers.
* FastballSpecial: Ron throws Rufus at Dementor's control panel in "Ill Suited", Rufus is also a functional Shuriken if the need arises.
** Also used by [[EnemyMine Kim and Shego]] in "Go Team Go" when Kim temporarily had Hego's SuperStrength.
* FeetOfClay: Will Du, the "number one Global Justice agent".
* FeminineWomenCanCook: So, naturally, it's a blind spot for the girl who can do anything, while Ron is an excellent chef. She improves at the end of the relevant episode, though {{fanon}} makes her a LethalChef, often to physics-defying levels.
* FictionAsCoverUp: It turns out that Area51 really is filled with aliens and captured spacecraft that the government is experimenting on, and the government deliberately leaked all the rumors and conspiracy theories to the public because they knew nobody would really believe it if "the truth" ever got out. Kim and Ron are understandably perturbed that that they are being asked to help keep a secret that everybody already knows.
* FingerSnapLighter: Shego.
* FirstGirlWins: Kim is Ron's first girl, and Ron is Kim's first boy. Both in the sense that they're the first ones we see meeting each at the start of the pilot, and their {{backstory}} of becoming friends on the first day of kindergarten.
* FishPeople: Gill, after his mutation.
* {{Flanderization}}: This is most prevalent with Ron and Drakken concerning their competence.
** Drakken was initially an intimidating MadScientist, even to the point of quelling Shego in Mind Games, with a touch of AbsentMindedProfessor. However, by the end of the series he is basically an IneffectualSympatheticVillain / IronButtmonkey. Although part of Drakken's problem is likely due to DiminishingVillainThreat.
** Though he did get a [[TookALevelInBadass badass boost]] thanks to becoming a PlantPerson.
** Ron went from fairly competent PluckyComicRelief at the beginning of the series to BumblingSidekick / ButtMonkey by the end of the end of the third season. In the fourth season, he began to go through CharacterDevelopment that came with his RelationshipUpgrade with Kim that culminated in a moment of CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass in the last episode. True, he had a few instances of his bumbling self throughout the fourth season, it was most likely done for comedy.
* FlatCharacter: Monique.
* FlatWhat: Kim does this a few times, such as when she found out that Monique liked wrestling.
* ForeignQueasine: One episode had Ron and Rufus finding a bag of chips that belonged to the current client, whereupon they began eagerly eating them... at least until the client tells them the chips were made from crickets.
* FountainOfYouth: Drakken and Nanny Nane both have devices for turning people into toddlers.
* FreakyFridayFlip: Kim and Ron swap bodies, as does Drakken with a military private. {{Fanfiction}} provides Ron with the ManIFeelLikeAWoman Routine.
* FreakyIsCool: This is why Kim is attracted to Ron.
-->"You're weird. I like weird."
* FreeRangeChildren: Kim is only around 15 - 18 during the show's run and yet she can go anywhere she pleases from Tokyo to Peru to outer space as long as it doesn't involve romance. She sometimes drags her friends, and her two younger brothers, along too.
* FriendlessBackground: Arguably, both Kim and Ron, besides each other.
* FutureBadass: Almost everyone in the future part of ''A Sitch In Time''.
-->'''Ron:''' Why is everybody in the future so ''ripped?!''
* FutureLoser: In ''A Sitch in Time'', it's shown that Brick becomes this. Ron even [[LampshadeHanging comments on it]].
