History PokemonResetBloodlines / TropesFToM

* MeltingPotNomenclature: This story gives the "Japanese" regions populations with diverse names, usually Western, Japanese, or [[MultiEthnicName both]].

* MultiEthnicName: It seems fairly common for characters in the "Japanese" regions to have a combination of Japanese and Western names.
** Johanna's mother had the maiden name Ayoko Platinum, a Japanese first name combined with a surname derived from Spanish.
** Tokiomi Borealis has a Japanese first name and a Latin last name. His daughter [[spoiler:Aurora]] shares the language scheme.
** Jeanette Fisher's parents are named Kazuto and Kaoruko. It should be noted, however, that Kazuto [[TheMaidenNameDebate took his wife's name when he married her]], so he may have had a Japanese surname beforehand.

* MakeMeWannaShout: As per canon, there are plenty of attacks that work like this, such as Screech and Echoed Voice.

* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex:
** If Chapter 25 is any indication, Norman and Caroline have a very fulfilling sex life.
** Explored by Anna in Chapter 27: The father of Arnold/[[spoiler: Ash and many more]] was, by her own admittance, her most physically pleasing lover. However there had been something missing, and two other lovers she had later had that even if they were not the most physically pleasing and thus she preferred them to him.
** If Lillie's flashback in the Holiday Special 2017 is an indication, Mohn and Lusamine were another example back then.

* KillEmAll:
** King Kahele's entire family was murdered in a single night by an usurper.
** [[spoiler: Capriccio of the Seven Brothers has taken up this mindset for any potential nephew or niece of his.]]
** William Stronger, AKA "The Bloodliner Hunter", [[TheFundamentalist is convinced that he has a divine mission to kill every single bloodliner]].
** Dainsleif and Accentus love to go on killing sprees just because, [[VillainousFriendship and they quickly bond over it]].

** [=MissingNo=] mentions that all the people and Pokemon Ash met in the previous timeline are still tied to him. Hence why Ash, and to a lesser extent other trainers, end up finding the exact same Pokemon they had in the previous timeline, and how Ash ends up meeting the same people, even if it's under different circumstances.

* TheLostWoods:
** Viridian Forest is a more dangerous example than the one in canon.
** Agatha & Sam Gaiden introduces the infamous Drowning Woods, based on the infamous [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aokigahara Aokigahara]]. Though it's hinted in the Ghosts of Maiden's Peak Interlude that it's less so in the present time, with all the Ghost-types who lived in there gone.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: One thing this story is known for is its large and diverse cast (including canon and original characters). Just take a look at the character page.

* MurphysLaw: Referenced by the narration in Chapter 22, in response to Snivy TemptingFate.

* IncestIsRelative: The Spearow and Fearow flock on the road between Pallet Town and Viridian City have apparently been inbreeding for generations. This is why they're still extremely aggressive, even after Professor Oak's efforts to make wild Pokémon less bloodthirsty and territorial.

* HumanMomNonhumanDad:
** It's heavily implied that [[spoiler:Ash, Red, Yellow, John Archer, Belladonna, and a lot of other Bloodliners]] are the result of this kind of relationship, having human mothers and [[ReallyGetsAround the same Bloodliner father]].
** The Jeanette Interlude reveals that the Fisher Clan's founder was a Victreebel Bloodliner, who apparently married a human woman.

* HypotheticalCasting: Cross and the readers have voiced their opinions on "casting" multiple times, through author's notes and polling, respectively. This includes Creator/ToddHaberkorn as Ash, Creator/MichelleRuff as Misty, Creator/CrispinFreeman as Red, Creator/TaraStrong as Yellow, Creator/YuriLowenthal as Gary, Creator/StephanieSheh as the Nurse Joys, and Creator/JulieAnnTaylor as Belladonna.

** Pikachu reflects at one point that he and Swellow often tried to recreate "Thunder Armor" after that move helped them achieve victory over Tate and Liza, but those two could never make it work again, Staraptor couldn't master it either, Unfeazant wasn't interested in trying it, and he didn't have the chance to try it with Flethling before the reality reset.

* MyWayOrTheHighway: [[spoiler:Aurora ''thinks'' Belladonna is giving her this "option" in regards to killing her father, due to her emotional scars and self-esteem issues. Unfortunately, she doesn't know that Belladonna would have stopped if she said she didn't want her dad to die at any point.]]

* ManOnFire: The Burn [[StandardStatusEffects status effect]] is depicted as causing this. Fortunately, since Pokémon are MadeOfIron and have a HealingFactor, damage is rarely critical or permanent.

* MixedAncestry:
** [[spoiler:Assuming Belladonna was correct, Chapter 23 hints that Ash, Red, Arnold and Belladonna were born to a Kanto mother and a father from Orre, while John Archer has a Hoenn born mother and the same father from Orre. Chapter 24 shows a look-alike waitress named Ashley, also in Kanto, who is likely half Orrean as well, as well as mentioning two kids, Frax and Velvet, who are said by Hala to resemble Ash and are thus probably half Alolan half Orrean, with a later oneshot introducing a third Alolan Ash-alike named Iolani and the Wicke & Nephew a fourth named Makanui, while the same chapter that mentioned the twins as well as the Astrid oneshot show a boy named Vermell who appears to originate from the Pokemon equivalent of Catalonia on his mother's side. Chapter 26 mentions a Ash-alike from Johto named Cleff who fought Dan the silver league before he fought Sabrina while Skyla Gaiden introduces a Unovan half sister named Betty Snyder. Luana Gaiden introduces us to Travis who has an Orange Islands mother while Sanpei Interlude and Ultima Interlude introduced the Kalosians Satoshi and Fitzdane respectively. Sho is also hinted to have met one whose name he doesn't remember in the Sinnoh League, and the Ritchie oneshot adds him as well to the mix. And then, there's Jane Jackrum, introduced in Laramie Gaiden, who's Almian, and Zilant the titular nephew from the Wicke & Nephew oneshot, who's from Fiore, showing that even the Ranger nations got tangled up in that large family tree.]]
** Skyla, who isn't a part of that tangled family tree, is suggested to be this too with her mother hailing from Johto and her father being Unovan.
** Misty barters with a Seafolk grandmother whose daughter married and had a daughter with a 'nice Unovan'.
** Wicke even notes that mixed ancestry has become a lot more common over the years.

* MonsterFunFacts: Pokémon will sometimes volunteer information about their biology and society to those who can understand them. For example, in Chapter 6, Pikachu says he's lucky his electric sacs make him lethal for human consumption, in the event that a hungry Ash and Misty decide to EatTheDog.

** [[spoiler: Iris' Fraxure]] has a brief one when he misunderstands [[spoiler:Red's Clefairy]] as he tries to reach out to [[spoiler:Clefairytwo]] to stop the fighting. He thinks he was distracting him and only upon confronting his own clone does he realize they're NotSoDifferent.

** So far only Ash's Pokémon [[spoiler:Sabrina, Mewtwo and Casey Snagem]] are aware that Ash is essentially doing his journey over for a second time, with all parties assuming that he's just a naturally gifted trainer rather than realizing that he's using the knowledge he gained in the original history. The Rookie Crusher became suspicious of this, but everyone but [[spoiler: the Bloodliner Prince and Hilda]] assume he was just being a SoreLoser.
