* KillerRabbit: Clefairy. After a while, their presence elicits an OhCrap reaction.

* EsembleDarkhorse: [[http://mokepon.smackjeeves.com/comics/1133094/chapter-4-page-4/ In-universe.]]

** [[GoddamnBats Goddamn]] [[ImageSource Zubats]]: [[Atty takes two steps into Mt. Moon.]] [[http://www.smackjeeves.com/images/uploaded/comics/7/7/772cc787ar3pk.png Mt. Moon]] [[http://mokepon.smackjeeves.com/comics/1810999/chapter-7-page-20/ proceeds]] [[EverythingIsTryingToKillYou to kick Atty's ass.]]

* {{Deconstruction}}: One of the comic's main sources of humour. Atticus doesn't ''want'' ToBeAMaster but is forced into doing so by his mother, there's a rather grisly explanation as to what happens to the remaining starter (as well as [[LudicrousGibs Pidgeys who don't get out of the way of lawnmowers]]), among many other examples.
** It pretty much showcases the [[FridgeLogic inherent flaws in logic]] and [[FridgeHorror terrifying implications]] of [[CrapsaccharineWorld a world of unbridled idealism built on the foundation of wild animals being dependent on their human masters.]]

* {{Expy}}: The masked person looks quite similar to [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Madara Uchiha.]]

* KnightOfCerebus: In a way, Atticus is this to the Pokémon universe.
** On his first day he [[spoiler: ''burned down Viridian Forest.'']] One can only imagine what will come next.

* SociopathicHero: ''Holy Arceus'', Atticus. He does thankfully [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold have a softspot]], but for the most part he is selfish and apathetic towards everyone.

* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: The alt text on Chpt 3 Pg 17 claims that Atty's mom named him after a lawyer who is most likely [[Literature/ToKillAMockingbird Atticus Finch.]]

It begins the adventure of an unenthusiastic trainer named Atticus Brent being kicked out by his mother for being unwilling to partake in the wonderful world of Pokémon and is forced onto his journey by her. After being given his Charmander ('affectionately' nicknamed Dragonthing) by a worryingly senile professor Oak, he finds himself slowly sucked into the world of Pokémon. Though he's all too aware that a lot of it [[FridgeLogic doesn't make sense]].

* EasterEgg: All of Atty's cigarette packets have a [[VideoGame/FinalFantasy Malboro]] on them. The cigarette brand is [[IncrediblyLamePun Marlboro.]]

* EyeScream: About half of the comments on [[http://mokepon.smackjeeves.com/comics/1220067/chapter-4-page-35/ this]] comic were something along the lines of "Ouch, tree in eye looks painful." [[hottip:*:The other half were "I bet she beats him to the exit."]]

* {{Determinator}}: Dragonthing during its third battle.

* CombatPragmatist: Dragonthing attacks a Ricardo's Caterpie while the guy is in the middle of boasting about the friendship between him and his Pokémon.
* CoolMask: The person who owns Feraligatr; may cross into MalevolentMaskedMan.

* AltText: Starting from the third page of chapter 2.

* ArtEvolution: Happens within the ''first chapter'' due to ScheduleSlip.

** The Pewter Gym Leader, Elle, has a lampshaded resemblance to [[Manga/DeathNote Mello]].

* BrickJoke: Before he began his journey Atticus yelled at Dragonthing for being completely unable to attack on her own. [[http://mokepon.smackjeeves.com/comics/1175484/chapter-4-page-18/ Now...]]

* CoolMask: The person who owns Feraligatr; may cross into MalevolentMaskedMan

* ImagineSpot: Twice in Chapter Three, when poor Dragonthing first imagines Atticus having the worst possible reaction to her {{Subverted}} Awesomeness and an extremely unrealistic outcome to [[spoiler: her taking on Feraligatr]].

* {{Retirony}}: Lapshaded and Discussed by [[http://mokepon.smackjeeves.com/comics/1623860/chapter-6-page-25/ one character]] when he jokes that a burned-down forest was 'just three weeks away from retirement'.

* YourTomcatIsPregnant: [[spoiler:Dragonthing is actually a girl.]]

* [[UnsoundEffect]]: DISPLACEMENT!
