Rarity gives this a HandWave by suggesting ponies probably just think she's due to be wrong after being right so much.

Though whether this is the case or just Rarity's suggestion is up in the air.

* TurnTheOtherCheek: Twilight writes in her friendship report at the end of the first chapter that repaying cruelty with kindness is the most effective way to catch someone off guard.

* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: The Diamond Dogs who stole True Blue and Opal from Rarity? In reality, ''they'' were the victims - True Blue was stolen from ''them'' by another dog, whom they promptly kicked out. They were trying to get it back, and due to their past encounter with Rarity, they were too scared to approach her in person (not to mention highly doubted she would believe them if they said True Blue was first theirs).]]



* [[NeverTrustATrailer Never Trust a Title Screen]]: The title screen shows Twilight and Spike. Twilight is the main character, but Spike never appears. [[spoiler: He gets briefly accused of the crime by the Diamond Dogs, but it doesn't even take a whole confrontation to chuck that theory out the window.]]
* OhCrap: Rarity's ''mere presence'' triggers this for the Diamond Dogs.



* PetTheDog: When Twilight comes to the Mayor for a search warrant [[spoiler: to search the Diamond Dogs' caverns]], the Mayor refuses to give her one for two reasons: she has no evidence directly pointing to [[spoiler: the Diamond Dogs]], and she isn't an investigator or anypony with the authority to be given a search warrant. After Twilight finds enough evidence, however, the Mayor decides to trust Twilight and makes her a temporary investigator so she can be given the warrant.
** In the end, [[spoiler: Rarity lets the Diamond Dogs keep True Blue because, after all, it ''was'' theirs first even if she later found it fair and square]].



* ReverseWhoDunnit: The very first cutscene of the game shows that the Diamond Dogs are the ones who stole True Blue, and you spend the entire first case just trying to prove it so Scootaloo doesn't get the blame.

* SpannerInTheWorks: Scootaloo serves as this for the thieves' plan, as her chance appearance startles them into making a hasty retreat when they steal True Blue, leaving behind the evidence needed to implicate them. Opalescence also fulfills this role, her hair and bow leaving a trail to the culprits.



* YesNoAnswerInterpretation: when Apple Bloom doesn't look convinced at Twilight Sparkle's promise not to tell anyone what she just told her, she promises it with a Pinkie Pie swear from [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the show]]: "Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye."

* TerrorHero: The Diamond Dogs see Rarity as this, her mere ''presence'' triggering unwanted memories of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E19ADogAndPonyShow their last encounter]].

* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: As part of the "honesty is the best policy" [[AnAesop lesson]] presented in the first story, Twilight writes that if everypony had been more open and trusting of each other, the case would have been solved much more quickly. [[spoiler:In fact, there wouldn't even ''be'' a case if the thieves had just ''asked'' Rarity for the gem in the first place]].



* ForcedTutorial: Played straight, unlike the other ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' games.



* GeniusDitz: {{Discussed|Trope}}; Twilight is flabbergasted by the Diamond Dogs' keen and frequent understanding of legal procedures, such as demanding she produce a search warrant before she starts investigating their caves, that she can't help but point it out internally. Their fascination with [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny shiny things]] shows they're still otherwise the same old dull-witted dogs.

And judging how they once spent Celestia knows how long searching for a "missing" baby that was safely hiding in a closet, she and her friends have every reason to panic.



* ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: A heroic example.

!! ''My Little Investigations'' provides examples of:
* AlwaysMurder: Averted. [[WordOfGod GabuEx]] has stated that none of the cases will involve murder.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Apparently, when the CMC tried to get a Cutie Mark in interperative dancing, they set a tiger loose, Rarity's mane was on fire, and Opalescence was stuck in a tree.
* BrickJoke: The balls Pinkie Pie set up around town in case of ball emergencies are brought up. Pinkie Pie's Pinkie Promise is also brought up once more.
* DeadpanSnarker: Twilgiht as usual. Possibly moreso than usual.
* FirstPersonSmartass: Twilight. As is usual for Ace Attorney protagonists.
* ForcedTutorial: Played straight Unlike the other AceAttorney games.
* JumpedAtTheCall: Twilight again.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Whenever Twilight explains the mechanics of the game.
* LighterAndSofter: When compared to the AceAttorney series due to averting AlwaysMurder.
* LyingToThePerp: A variation. Twilight lies to Rarity by making it seem like she knows more than she really does to get Rarity to stop hiding information.
* NoodleIncident: Several:
** The case the invastigative team from Canterlot worked on.
** Twilight's last case.
** The CMC's attempts at getting a Cutie Mark in interpretative dancing.
* OhMyGods: As is usual for [=FiM=] fan works (and the show itself to a degree), anytime the word "god" would show up in a common phrase, it's replaced with "Celestia".
* TaughtByTelevision: Twilight apparently learned all of her investigative skills through mystery novels.
