| 34 | ---- |
| 35 | * AdaptationPersonalityChange: There ''is'' a Mr. Fuji in ''VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue'', but in his original iteration he had no established connection to Mewtwo, he was merely a kindly old man who took care of pokémon. The movie's Dr. Fuji, on the other hand, is an {{Expy}} of ''Anime/AstroBoy''[='=]s Dr. Tenma and the creator of Mewtwo. Later games, however, would take the role of Mewtwo's creator the movie's Fuji and give it to the Fuji of the games. |
| 36 | * AdaptationalVillainy: More like Adaptational Anti-Heroism, but whereas the game version is a kindly old man who used to be a researcher in Cinnabar Island, this version is a more morally gray scientist who, in his attempts to gain the funding and technology to resurrect his daughter, worked with Team Rocket to perfectly clone Mew, and give Team Rocket the world's most powerful Pokémon. |
| 37 | * DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:When he loses the clone Kanto starters and any hopes of reviving his daughter in one fell swoop.]] |
| 38 | -->'''Female scientist''': [[spoiler:''(after Mewtwo is treated with the amnesiac drug that makes him forget about Amber)'' Its brain waves are going back to normal. Everything seems okay, Doctor.]]\ |
| 39 | '''Dr. Fuji''': [[spoiler:Nothing is okay. My Amber is gone forever.]] |
| 40 | * DeathByAdaptation: His namesake in the games is alive, while Dr. Fuji dies in the movie. |
| 41 | * {{Expy}}: His design and background is based off of [[Manga/AstroBoy Dr. Tenma]]. |
| 42 | * GoneHorriblyRight: He says it best [[FinalWords right before he is killed by Mewtwo]] when it destroys the entire lab. |
| 43 | -->''"We dreamed of creating the world's strongest Pokémon... '''and we succeeded'''."'' |
| 44 | * GriefInducedSplit: Dr. Fuji's wife is distraught and angry with him trying to resurrect their beloved deceased daughter Amber through cloning. She eventually left him, her wedding ring, and a letter behind, telling him that she loved Amber as much as he did, but he needed to accept the fact that she was gone, and could not continue to watch his fruitless unethical endeavours. |
| 45 | * HeelRealization: He has one when Mewtwo is about to destroy the lab, learning that, clone or not, [[DoNotTauntCthulhu playing with "the world's strongest" Pokémon's feelings was a stupid idea]]. |
| 46 | * HiddenEyes: His eyes are seen obscured for most of his time on-screen, until his HeelRealization, where they're visible for the first time (pictured above), symbolizing he still had some humanity in him. |
| 47 | * KilledOffForReal: Blasted to oblivion, along with the rest of his research team and his lab, by Mewtwo. He's so far one of the very few characters in the ''Pokémon'' anime to explicitly die on-screen. |
| 48 | * MadScientist: {{Subverted|Trope}}. He's the one who created Mewtwo, but this was more because he was promised the funding necessary to resurrect his daughter. While morally gray, he was never depicted as outright ''mad'' or ''evil'' per se. |
| 49 | * MrSmith: In the English novelization, he was named "Professor John Smith." |
| 50 | * OutlivingOnesOffspring: His young daughter Amber died in a car accident, and he poured all his energy into trying to bring her back via cloning. |
| 51 | * ReturningTheWeddingRing: His wife left him when he wouldn't stop trying to bring their deceased daughter back via cloning, and left a note in front of their family photo along with her wedding ring and house key. |
| 52 | -->'''Mrs. Fuji's note''': I loved our daughter as much as you did. But she's gone. No one can bring her back, and I can't go on watching you try. I'm sorry. Goodbye. |
| 53 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appearing for a short time (this also counts the prologue), Dr. Fuji was responsible for Mewtwo's creation. |
| 54 | * YouDontLookLikeYou: The design of the movie's Fuji, with his collapsing pompadour, chin beard, and jutting hawk-nose, clearly took after ''Anime/AstroBoy'''s Dr. Tenma rather than the bald old man with BigOlEyebrows depicted in Sugimori's ''TabletopGame/{{Pokemon}}'' TCG artwork. |

| 60 | |
| 61 | Dr. Fuji's daughter. |
| 62 | ---- |
| 63 | * CheerfulChild: She's always happy, even in death. |
| 64 | * CloneAngst: Averted. Ambertwo doesn't seem to have any problems with being a clone. |
| 65 | -->"They call me Ambertwo, but I'm still really Amber." |
| 66 | * CynicismCatalyst: Her death is [[DespairEventHorizon a major reason for Mewtwo's initial attitude]]. |
| 67 | * DaddysGirl: The real Amber was very close to her father. |
| 68 | * DeathByOriginStory: Twice, even. |
| 69 | ** According to the original radio drama, Amber was hit by a car. |
| 70 | ** Ambertwo doesn't have it any better, as she ends up a failed attempt at cloning and dies not too long after Bulbasaurtwo, Charmandertwo and Squirtletwo die. [[DespairEventHorizon This got to Mewtwo.]] |
| 71 | * FaceDeathWithDignity: When she realizes she is about to die, she does not show any fear or sadness at her fate. She says goodbye to Mewtwo, thanks him for caring about her, and tells him to be happy that he's alive. |
| 72 | * FinalWords: "And don't cry, Mewtwo. You should be happy! You're alive, and life is wonderful!" He continues to remember the words "life is wonderful" even after his memories of her are erased. |
| 73 | * NoBodyLeftBehind: When she dies, she fades away in the dream world, while in the real world, the glowing ball of light that is her clone's physical form disappears. |
| 74 | * OneLetterName: Her Japanese name is based on the English first-person pronoun "I", according to the creators. It can also be spelt as "Ai", which means "love" in Japanese. |
| 75 | * OnlyFriend: The first sapient being to interact with Mewtwo, providing him with some answers concerning his nature, with her death, and Mewtwo subsequently forgetting most of his interactions with her —with the exception of the grief and sadness he felt— being the catalyst for Mewtwo's attitude in the rest of the movie. |
| 76 | * ThePollyanna: Ambertwo stays positive all the time, even when [[spoiler:she is about to vanish forever]]. |
| 77 | * PosthumousCharacter: Both of them. Amber is the one that sets Dr. Fuji to pursue cloning, resulting in Amber'''two'''. Ambertwo is the reason why Mewtwo exists, and her death plays a part on Mewtwo's twisted personality pre-HeelFaceTurn. |
| 78 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Ambertwo was intended to be this, but sadly she did not survive long enough to leave her cloning tube. |
| 79 | * ThemeNaming: Retroactively with Molly of the third movie — her Japanese name Ai is pronounced like the English word "I", while Molly's Japanese name Mii is pronounced like the English word "me". |

| 91 | * AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: Fergus mostly has Water type Pokémon while Neesha has the fully evolved Water starter in addition to a Dewgong. They both wear blue (and coincidentally [[SleevesAreForWimps sleeveless]]). |
| 92 | * MinorMajorCharacter: They're against Mewtwo along with Ash and friends for much of the movie yet they're so OutOfFocus. |
| 93 | * SatelliteCharacter: They exist mainly so Mewtwo has other trainers aside from Ash and friends to steal and clone Pokémon from. |

| 103 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: While the film's StarterVillain, he provides an EarlyBirdCameo for Donphan to introduce the Pokémon to a global audience. |

| 114 | |
| 115 | The original clone Pokémon made for Team Rocket, who turns on them and sets out to carve his own destiny. |
| 116 | ---- |
| 117 | * AdaptationDeviation: His birth is quite different from his game counterpart. In the games, Mr. Fuji (or him and his team of scientists — depending on the translation) found a pregnant Mew in the jungles of Guyana, tampered with its embryo — the result was Mewtwo. It was then subjected to countless horrific gene-splicing experiments at the Pokémon Mansion, before it snapped and escaped. Here, Mewtwo is literally grown in a tube, cloned from DNA taken from a fossilized eyelash of Mew. |
| 118 | * AffablyEvil: As much of a dick as he was pre-HeelFaceTurn, he's pretty polite and refined in his actions. The English dub makes it a bit more apparent where Mewtwo basically acts like a Pokémon version of Film/DrNo. |
| 119 | * AmnesiaMissedASpot: After his friend Amber died, he went into emotional overload and was treated with amnesiac drugs to erase his memory of her. But he still remembered her last words to him, ''"Life is wonderful."'' |
| 120 | * AntiVillain: A Type II (Woobie Anti-Villain). Mewtwo didn't start out evil, only going over the DespairEventHorizon after Ambertwo and the starter Pokémon clones die. After he was sedated, then wakes up to realizing he was created by Dr. Fuji, his scientist group and Giovanni, Mewtwo came to the conclusion that HumansAreTheRealMonsters and [[BloodbathVillainOrigin blows up the lab alongside everyone inside]] before deciding to prove his point. |
| 121 | * AntiHero: Through all of ''Mewtwo Returns''. He protects the clones he created while still DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife, but constantly makes access to where he lives moot by creating storms. That said, he saves a bus from falling, something Meowthtwo hints out as him having a soft spot for humanity. |
| 122 | * BadassInDistress: In ''Mewtwo Returns'', he lets Giovanni capture him in order to keep the clones safe. |
| 123 | * BarrierWarrior: Knows Barrier. |
| 124 | * BetaTestBaddie: Was cloned from Mew and wanted to prove his superiority, to the point he asserts that his CloneArmy is naturally superior to their originals. When Mew finally shows up, Mewtwo quickly becomes caught up in trying to defeat it in order to prove his own worth, and when Mew gives him a PatrickStewartSpeech his response is an [[ShutUpKirk enraged attack]] before forcibly [[BroughtDownToNormal sealing the special abilities of both original and clones]] with his powers (despite having spent the movie boasting of said innate superior powers) just so he can prove that his clones really are superior when all things are equal. |
| 125 | * BigBad: Of ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'', since it planned to destroy the entire world in it's goal of creating a new world for his cloned army to live in peace in. |
| 126 | * BloodbathVillainOrigin: Killed everyone in the lab he was born in. |
| 127 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: He possesses this power, turning a Nurse Joy into his possessed minion. |
| 128 | * BrokenAce: He was created to be the strongest Pokémon ever, with deadly results. |
| 129 | * TheBusCameBack: After 20 years after his appearance in ''Mewtwo Returns'' (aside from the retelling of its movie that is ''Anime/MewtwoStrikesBackEvolution''), he reappears in the 46th episode of ''Pokémon Journeys''. |
| 130 | * TheCameo: He makes a bunch of these during some movie intros, which at least tell us he's still doing well. |
| 131 | * CastingAShadow: He uses Shadow Ball in his duel with Mew, before the move's official introduction to the games. |
| 132 | * CloneAngst: Much of Mewtwo's angst in ''Mewtwo Returns'' comes from his belief that clones don't have the right to share the world with natural-born Pokémon. |
| 133 | * ContemplateOurNavels: Spends most of ''Mewtwo Returns'' questioning whether the clone Pokémon have a right to live with normal Pokémon and trying to avoid contact with humans. |
| 134 | * CynicismCatalyst: His only friends spent a short time with him before dying, and then his memories had to be wiped in order to keep the emotional anguish from overloading him during his early stages in the test tube. This left him with only vague flickers of what he remembered with Ambertwo and the other three clones -- a sense of grief and loss, accompanied by not understanding exactly why "life is wonderful", or what his purpose is. |
| 135 | * DarkIsEvil: The black Pokéballs he uses to steal other people's Pokémon, as well as his signature Shadow Ball attack (which became an official move in the second generation after debuting here). Averted after he pulls his HeelFaceTurn. |
| 136 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: The Kanto starter clones and Ambertwo were his childhood friends, but all of them died and the scientists were forced to [[LaserGuidedAmnesia erase his memories of them]] to keep his brain waves from going out of control. But even then, he still remembers Ambertwo's last words. |
| 137 | * DeathGlare: Dons a KubrickStare with GlowingEyesOfDoom right before he proceeds to obliterate the lab and scientists. |
| 138 | * DespairEventHorizon: The death of his fellow clone companions (especially Ambertwo) got to him ''really badly'', and he almost snaps. Dr. Fuji sedates him to prevent this, but it's clear that Ambertwo's FinalWords got to him so much that, when a mature Mewtwo wakes up, he goes berserk upon learning of his purpose. |
| 139 | * DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: He goes through this for the first fifteen minutes of the movie. After awakening from the research lab and the researchers talking to him, he thought he was just a lab experiment created by them. Not wanting to accept it, he destroys the lab. Shortly after that, Giovanni meets him and tells him that he can help him control his powers and find his purpose. He helps him control his powers, but after a while he tells Mewtwo that his purpose was to fight for him. Enraged that he had been used by him, he destroys his HQ and goes back to the destroyed lab, where he decides that his purpose will be to wipe out humans for what they did to him. |
| 140 | * {{Determinator}}: Mewtwo's will was so strong he endured hours, possibly ''days'' of torture from machines specifically designed to force him to obey Giovanni, to the point where his body gave out before he did. |
| 141 | * DubPersonalityChange: In the English dub of the original movie, he acts like your stereotypical megalomaniacal and arrogant EvilOverlord rather than a troubled artificial lifeform trying to find his place in the world. This was undone in ''Anime/MewtwoStrikesBackEvolution'', reverting it to his original Japanese personality. |
| 142 | * TheEeyore: Especially in ''Mewtwo Returns''. Meowthtwo tries to get him to lighten up, but it's Ash who ultimately breaks him out of his funk. |
| 143 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: Refused to believe, initially, that humans and Pokémon could ever truly bond and be equal partners. It gets to the point that he refuses to help/spare Pokémon who are already being trained because in his eyes they've already lowered themselves to "serving humans". When Pikachu tries to talk some sense into him by clarifying that he and Ash are friends, Mewtwo simply calls him "foolish" and psychically chucks him into a wall. |
| 144 | * EvilOverlord: Rules over New Island and all of its cloned Pokémon inhabitants. The English dub makes him a stereotypical Evil Overlord who wants to TakeOverTheWorld. |
| 145 | * FinalSolution: In the dub at least, he loathes both humans and Pokémon that are loyal to them, so creates clones to replace them. |
| 146 | * ForTheEvulz: |
| 147 | ** In the Japanese version, he taunts the humans by offering them an exit from his stadium... ''if they can brave the raging storm outside''. |
| 148 | ** The English version pulls a similar stunt, but in a more implied fashion. While he might have let Ash and company return to the mainland without any problems, he makes no illusion that he's going to spare them his wrath and probably gave them the offer just to see the humans squirm. |
| 149 | * FreudianExcuse: His creators had no care for him, seeing him only as a test subject. Then he spends some time being used as Giovanni's personal weapon until he realizes he's been had and leaves. This leaves him as an abominably powerful Pokémon with a pretty justifiably sour attitude toward all humans. |
| 150 | -->'''Mewtwo:''' I was not born a Pokemon, I was created. And my creators have used and betrayed me! Therefore... I ''stand alone''! |
| 151 | * GeniusBruiser: Not only is he the world's strongest Pokémon, he's also capable of recreating the cloning process that brought him to life. |
| 152 | * GoMadFromTheRevelation: When he finds out the humans who made him don't give jack squat about him. It's traumatic enough as it is, [[spoiler: but his childhood friend Ambertwo's last words of "Life is wonderful" are still in his head when he breaks out of his test tube.]] It's enough to send Mewtwo into a rage and leads him to want vengeance on all non-clone life. |
| 153 | * GoneHorriblyRight: His creators wanted to create the world's strongest Pokémon, and they succeeded. |
| 154 | * HeelFaceTurn: By the end of the first movie, when his realization from Ash's HeroicSacrifice gives him a huge change of heart. It is kept in ''Mewtwo Returns''. |
| 155 | -->'''Mewtwo:''' [[HeelRealization "I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are".]] |
| 156 | * HeroicRROD: Mewtwo resists Giovanni's torture to the point where his body is severely weakened, and then uses the last of his strength to destroy the machines torturing him. |
| 157 | * HumansAreTheRealMonsters: How he views humans after his early exposure to them. By the end of ''Mewtwo Returns'', he's softened his view on them a bit. |
| 158 | * IslandBase: Has one in the first film that would make even a Film/JamesBond villain green with envy. It's a castle complete with a battle arena and cloning machine, and all this is on the island where he was created, even including the last log of the scientists he killed months before, as a testament to his birth. |
| 159 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: His hatred towards humans isn't unjustified, given he was born as merely an experiment, was sedated, and woke up to realize his "purpose"; this is probably why he's quite dickish throughout most of the movie (though he's more prone in rubbing it in the heroes faces in the English version). Post HeelFaceTurn, however, he significantly calms down, which sticks by the time of ''Mewtwo Returns'', where even has a {{Tsundere}} moment after stopping a bus from falling into a river. |
| 160 | * KnightOfCerebus: Mewtwo was by-far the darkest villain in the anime at the time of his debut, having an incredibly somber backstory and had plans to wipe out all of humanity, setting the tone for his movie which contrasted the overall light-hearted Original series. |
| 161 | * LargeHam: Oh, so much in the English version. |
| 162 | -->"I may have been cloned from your DNA, but now I will prove that Mewtwo is better than the original. ''Superior to Mew!'' This world is ''too small for two of us!''" |
| 163 | * MartialPacifist: Having decided to avoid conflict with humans, when Giovanni shows up in ''Mewtwo Returns'', Mewtwo tries to intimidate him into leaving rather than fight. It doesn't work, and only gives Giovanni an opportunity to take the clone Pokémon hostage. |
| 164 | * MoralityPet: [[ThePhilosopher Meowthtwo]] spends much of ''Mewtwo Returns'' trying to convince him he and the other clones are not so different from natural-born Pokémon. |
| 165 | * OmnicidalManiac: Pre-HeelFaceTurn in the English dub, in the vein of [[Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe Karl Stromberg]] and [[Film/{{Moonraker}} Hugo Drax]], where he plans to destroy all life on earth and repopulate it with his clones. |
| 166 | * TheParanoiac: Mewtwo exhibits several paranoiac traits. His primary motivation is an utter distrust of all humanity for enslaving Pokémon (stemming from being himself a scientific experiment GoneHorriblyRight and later used as a weapon by Giovanni), to which end he seeks to KillAllHumans and save Pokémon by [[InsaneTrollLogic enslaving all of them]], the idea being that since he cares more about them than their trainers do (in his mind at least), it's for their own good. |
| 167 | * PerpetualFrowner: Due to the ridges over his eyes giving him a permanent KubrickStare. |
| 168 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: He destroyed the New Island Lab and Giovanni's gym with [[PillarOfLight Pillars Of Light]] and created a massive hurricane just by waving one hand, seemingly without effort. |
| 169 | * PhysicalGod: He's one of the most powerful beings in the Pokémon universe, with psychic abilities capable of working on a borderline global scale. It's telling that in the first movie the only one who could actually lay an equal smackdown on him was his original Mew. |
| 170 | * PleaseDontLeaveMe: [[spoiler:In ''The Birth of Mewtwo'', as Ambertwo fades away and dies, Mewtwo begs her to come back. It's as tragic as it sounds.]] |
| 171 | -->'''Mewtwo''': [[spoiler:Please, Amber, come back! Don't go, please! Amber...!]] |
| 172 | * PoweredArmor: Which, ironically, had the purpose of acting as a RestrainingBolt. |
| 173 | * PsychicPowers: Is the most powerful Psychic-type Pokémon in existence. |
| 174 | * PsychopathicManchild: Types B and C. His motives basically amount to a psychic powered temper-tantrum as a result of his mistreatment and even some of his dialog is childish in some aspects, saying "Don't tell me what to do!" when Ash and co. confront him on taking their Pokémon. The English dub averts this, glossing over most, if not all, of Mewtwo's childish mannerisms from the Japanese version save a few moments, such as his almost tantrum-like assertion that "my clones don't NEED their powers to prove their worth!" in response to Mew refuting that very "superior power of clones" boast seconds before. |
| 175 | * PsychoticSmirk: When he ''does'' smile in the first film, it's due to amusement at his human adversaries underestimating him. |
| 176 | * RaisedInALab: Mewtwo was a human-made, genetically engineered Pokémon that was an imperfect close of Mew. Created and raised in a test tube, Mewtwo used its psychic powers to communicate with the other test subjects, including the head researcher Dr. Fuji's deceased daughter Amber, to learn about life and morality. After Amber's consciousness faded, Mewtwo's memories were wiped in fear of the grief being too stressful, but this only left Mewtwo with feelings of sadness and loneliness that it did not understand, making him lash out and escape. |
| 177 | * TheSocialDarwinist: The main purpose of Mewtwo's storm was to pick off all but the strongest Pokémon for him to use as stock for his cloning project. [[KillAllHumans No humans were intended to survive, of course.]] |
| 178 | * SignatureMove: Shadow Ball, his trademark attack, which became an official move in the second generation. |
| 179 | * SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler:Of the five clones that Dr. Fuji made -- himself, Bulbasaurtwo, Charmandertwo, Squirtletwo, and Ambertwo -- he was the only one to survive past childhood. It is implied that this was because he was cloned from a legendary Pokémon, while the other four were cloned from three ordinary Pokémon and a human.]] |
| 180 | * SuperSoldier: Giovanni attempted to make Mewtwo into this in both the first film and ''Mewtwo Returns''. Both attempts end in failure, [[spoiler: the second of which resulting in Mewtwo erasing all traces of himself from Giovanni's memory]]. |
| 181 | * TakeOverTheWorld: The English dub more or less changes his main goal from wanting to prove himself to Mew that he is the "true one" of the two to simply this, though it is hinted that his primary motive for doing this is to prove the superiority of cloned Pokémon in general. |
| 182 | * TragicVillain: Good ''god''. Given how sudden the loss of his friends were and the New Island scientists and Giovanni being callous to the Pokémon in regards to seeing it as nothing more than a test subject to be weaponized, you can't blame him for having such resentment towards humanity. |
| 183 | * TookALevelInKindness: His reappearance in ''Journeys''[='=] episode 46. Mewtwo is still strict and aloof, but in the time since Ash last saw him, he's been helping Pokémon who have been mistreated by humans. He treats Ash and his new friend Goh much more amicably, sympathizes with their respective dreams of being a Pokémon master and catching every Pokémon, and accepts a friendly battle with them. While the battle [[CurbStompBattle goes as one would expect]], Mewtwo shows them respect when they lose, and tells them that the day with them was the most enjoyment he's had in a long time. |
| 184 | * UsedToBeASweetKid: [[spoiler:The cover for ''[[Radio/PokemonTheBirthOfMewtwo The Birth of Mewtwo]]'' radio drama shows him as a happy, little baby Pokémon and has moments where you just want to give him a hug. When Mewtwo grows up and has a better understanding of the circumstances of his birth, he quickly goes off the deep end.]] |
| 185 | * WalkingTheEarth: Embarks on this at the end of ''Mewtwo Returns''. |
| 186 | * WhenHeSmiles: |
| 187 | ** Three times in ''Mewtwo Returns''; once while moon gazing with Pikatwo and Meowthtwo, and [[spoiler: during his healing at the lake, when he finally realizes that the Earth is as much his home as any naturally created Pokémon.]] And finally when he departs again at the end, when thanking Ash and company for saving his life and helping him save the clones. |
| 188 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7CTc73Uqgk&t=20s Once more during]] ''Journeys'', when Ash and Goh challenge Mewtwo to a battle. It's a smile mixed with sympathy and [[GrinOfAudacity audacity]]. |
| 189 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Both in the English and Japanese version of the first film, though much more in the latter (see TakeOverTheWorld above). |
| 190 | * WrongContextMagic: His "Mewtwo Balls" are able to capture Pokémon that already belong to Trainers, something normal Pokéballs cannot do. When Ash tried putting his Pokémon back in their balls; he's left in shock as the "Mewtwo Balls" simply '''CAPTURES''' his Pokéballs. |

| 196 | ---- |
| 197 | * BadassAdorable: It's very playful, but has fighting skills on par with Mewtwo. What else would you expect of the ancestor of all Pokémon? |
| 198 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: It's not nearly as nice as its playful, goofy demeanor suggests, and is more than willing to engage in a brutal fight with Mewtwo after he angers it. |
| 199 | * BigDamnHeroes: Catches Ash after being sent flying by Mewtwo and is the only creature alive able to match Mewtwo in power. |
| 200 | * EnergyBall: One of the ways Mew uses Psychic. |
| 201 | * FantasticRacism: Very downplayed, but at least in the Japanese script Mew appears to have a low opinion of Mewtwo's clones, considering the originals the "real" beings who should win in a head to head fight. |
| 202 | * ImmortalImmaturity: It's one of the oldest, most powerful Pokémon in existence, but it has a childish, playful nature. |
| 203 | * LetsGetDangerous: It spends the first half of the film before confronting Mewtwo bouncing around the island playing. When Mewtwo delivers his BadassBoast that he is superior, Mew just chases its tail, and giggles as it dodges Mewtwo's attacks. But when one of Mewtwo's attacks finally hits and sends it flying through the air? ''It returns the favor.'' |
| 204 | * NotSoHarmless: Its playful, curious nature make it seem like a harmless creature, but it proves to be just as powerful in battle as Mewtwo once the former lands a hit and Mew decides to return the attack. |
| 205 | * PatrickStewartSpeech: When Mewtwo attempts to assert he and his CloneArmy are superior Mew and the originals due to their greater innate powers, Mew launches into a speech (helpfully translated by Meowth for Team Rocket and the audience), that those powers mean nothing and the ''real'' measure of a Pokémon is what's in their heart. [[ShutUpKirk Mewtwo responds with another energy ball.]] |
| 206 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: It has a tiny stature, but is as powerful as Mewtwo. |

| 228 | |
| 229 | One of the clones Mewtwo created, made from Ash's Pikachu. His process was incomplete, leading to a radically different personality from Pikachu. |
| 230 | ---- |
| 231 | * AesopAmnesia: The first thing he does in ''Mewtwo Returns'' when he sees Ash's Pikachu is to attack him. And we all know [[MartialPacifist how it went]] in the first movie. |
| 232 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: His violent streak places him as a "leader" in Mewtwo's clone group. |
| 233 | * BerserkButton: Ash's Pikachu. Yes, [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer you're reading that right]]. Reason for it? Pikachu enjoys a free life with his trainer, while Pikachutwo is forced to hide from humans. |
| 234 | * BloodKnight: Especially in comparison to Pikachu, who ''didn't'' want to fight. He also plays this compared to Meowthtwo, an ActualPacifist. |
| 235 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Nowhere to be seen after the events of ''Mewtwo Returns'', not even after Mewtwo's return in ''Journeys''. |
| 236 | * CopiedTheMoralsToo: Averted. Whereas many of the clones are identical in personality (minus their BloodKnight side, of course), Pikachutwo is the most radically different in personality from them. |
| 237 | * FantasticRacism: Shares Mewtwo's contempt for natural Pokémon, which remains in ''Mewtwo Returns''. Gone by the end of the special. |
| 238 | * GoodOldFisticuffs: Pikachutwo notably doesn't use his electric attacks much, instead relying on physical force. |
| 239 | * HitMeDammit: Unfortunately for Pikachutwo, no matter how much he hits Ash's Pikachu — he simply doesn't understand why Pikachu [[MartialPacifist keeps standing up]] ''[[MartialPacifist without]]'' [[MartialPacifist the intent to fight]]. |
| 240 | * IdenticalTwinIDTag: He looks almost identical to Ash's Pikachu, but the black markings on his ears are jagged instead of smooth. |
| 241 | * IJustWantToHaveFriends: One of the reasons Pikachutwo attacks Ash's Pikachu is because he is very jealous the latter has a trainer. |
| 242 | * IneffectualDeathThreats: Upon finding Ash's Pikachu again in ''Mewtwo Returns'', Pikachutwo threatens him to "get out, or [he'll] regret it, then attacks Pikachu... and then Mewtwo prevents it with his [[MindOverMatter telekinesis]]. |
| 243 | * {{Jerkass}}: Compared to the clones, Pikachutwo is the most violent and [[LackOfEmpathy least emphatic]] (or so it seems). He attacks Ash's Pikachu without a scruple even while Pikachu doesn't fight back, and in ''Mewtwo Returns'' he does it again as soon as Pikachu appears, simply because the latter enjoys a life with his trainer! Justified given his cloning process was incomplete, leading to a much more radically different personality from that of Pikachu. |
| 244 | * LackOfEmpathy: Subverted. He attacks Ash's Pikachu simply because it's ''Ash's Pikachu'', and doesn't seem to understand why Mewtwo would save the humans from falling from their death when one a typhoon knocks a bus down a mountain. However, it's all out of bitterness that he has to hide while Pikachu enjoys a free life. |
| 245 | * TheLancer: Takes over this role for Mewtwo's clones in ''Mewtwo Returns'', seeing he is the one to gather up the clones to fight Team Rocket's Combat Unit. |
| 246 | * LeeroyJenkins: Rushes at Pikachu upon their encounter in ''Mewtwo Returns''. He also rallies the other clones to attack. |
| 247 | * ThisMeansWar: According to Team Rocket's Meowth, Team Rocket's Combat Unit invading their island is enough reason to make Pikachutwo rally the other clones. |
| 248 | -->'''Meowth:''' "This is more than just a battle, this is war". |
| 249 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With [[ActualPacifist Meowthtwo]]. |
| 250 | * TookALevelInKindness: At the end of ''Mewtwo Returns'', given he smiles and his resentment towards natural Pokémon is mostly gone. |

| 258 | One of the clones Mewtwo created, made from Team Rocket's Meowth. Unlike Meowth, he can't talk and often walks on all fours. |
| 259 | ---- |
| 260 | * ActualPacifist: Unlike Pikachutwo, Meowthtwo has no desire to battle. It could be Team Rocket Meowth's aversion to fight taken to the extreme. |
| 261 | * AscendedExtra: Plays a larger role in ''Mewtwo Returns'' than in the first movie. |
| 262 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Nowhere to be seen after the events of ''Mewtwo Returns'', not even after Mewtwo's return in ''Journeys''. |
| 263 | * CopiedTheMoralsToo: Played with. Meowthtwo looks the dopiest of the clones, but shares Meowth's bad sense of battle by not wanting to fight, while being [[SmarterThanYouLook smarter than it looks]] given its [[ThePhilosopher philosopher]] side. |
| 264 | * MoralityPet: Acts as this to Mewtwo. He spends much of ''Mewtwo Returns'' trying to convince him he and the other clones are not so different from natural-born Pokémon. |
| 265 | * ThePhilosopher: Ironically, it's the Pokémon cloned from one that can talk, that is this. Meowthtwo might not be able to talk, but he can think deep. |

| 290 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/m02_lawrence_iii.PNG]] |
| 291 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Takeshi Kaga (Japanese), Neil Stewart (English), Creator/RicardoMendoza (Latin American Spanish), Creator/MarcoBalzarotti (Italian) |
| 292 | ---- |
| 293 | * AffablyEvil: He doesn't even keep his prisoners locked up, he lets them walk around as they please! To be fair, Lawrence obviously doesn't realize he's doing anything harmful or villainous, and thus doesn't see Ash and his friends as enemies or threats so much as innocent bystanders he accidently captured alongside Zapdos. |
| 294 | * BigBad: Tries to capture the three birds ''and'' Lugia, which leads to mass destruction and nearly the apocalypse. |
| 295 | * TheChessmaster: Systematically positions and provokes the birds into moving around and would've had all three if Ash and company hadn't blown up his airship partway. |
| 296 | * TheChosenWannabe: Lawrence narrates the prophecy at the movie's beginning, and he erroneously believes that not only is he the chosen one of said prophecy, but also that it's about collecting all three Legendary Birds so he can "tame" Lugia into his collection too. |
| 297 | * TheCollector: A particularly obsessive one too, having gone from an ancient trading card to a quest to catch four of the most powerful Pokémon in the world. He doesn't seem to have any interest in training them or using them like Team Rocket either, just possessing them. |
| 298 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: He captures Moltres AND Zapdos, and attempts to do the same to Articuno and Lugia (which doesn't work). |
| 299 | * DramaticallyMissingThePoint: His backstory reveals that Lawrence read the prophecy about the three legendary birds and interpreted that he was TheChosenOne and that the "'''Into thine hands bring together all three/Their treasures combined tame the Beast of The Sea'''" meant capturing them for his collection. The Prophecy is really about the three treasures on each island so the real Chosen One can help Lugia save the world. |
| 300 | * DullSurprise: He just has a look of mild annoyance when the birds escape and wreak havoc. |
| 301 | * EvilPlan: He seeks to fulfill the prophecy by gathering the "three treasures", which he assumes are the three legendary birds, and then tame Lugia. Thus, adding all four ledendaries to his collection. Notably, he doesn't seem to realize this is an "evil" plan, but it functions as one for the movie's narrative. |
| 302 | * KarmaHoudini: Appears to have absolutely no punishment to speak of for the chaos he wrought by the end of the film beyond his massive flying fortress in ruins and him being stuck on a small piece of land in the middle of the sea. He even implies he will start over. To be fair, he didn't ''intentionally'' seek to cause an ApocalypseHow, and since he's not appeared as an antagonist since, it's likely he learned his lesson. |
| 303 | * LackOfEmpathy: He sees nothing wrong with his treatment of Moltres and Zapdos and doesn't hear the disgust in Misty's voice when she calls him out on his actions. |
| 304 | * MikeNelsonDestroyerOfWorlds: He seems to be nothing more than an incredibly rich, bored human being who is willing to bring about the apocalypse to complete his collection. Then again, it's implied he isn't even aware of TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt going on around him until AFTER Lugia fixes everything. |
| 305 | * ObliviouslyEvil: He's not really "evil", just selfish and out of his mind when it comes to his hobby. True to this trope, he sees the destruction going on around him and never even once realizes that he's the one who started it. |
| 306 | * OminousFloatingCastle: His insanely large airship. |
| 307 | * SelfFulfillingProphecy: A rare case and inversion where the one interpreting the prophecy is trying to fulfill it AND yet isn't even the subject of said prophecy. Lawrence believed himself to be TheChosenOne, and that "bring together all three" was an instruction to capture Moltres, Zapdos and Articunos so he can "tame" Lugia (i.e. add them all to his collection). The prophecy is really about how to prevent catastrophe from someone TRYING to do such a thing, which invariably falls to the REAL chosen one Ash Ketchum... which only happened because Lawrence wanted to fulfill said prophecy in the first place. |
| 308 | * TheStoic: His facial expression is usually fixed on "smug" and rarely changes. |
| 309 | * VillainyFreeVillain: It's clear through the movie that Lawrence is not out to TakeOverTheWorld like Giovanni (as far as we know) or even destroy it (though that's a consequence of what he's doing). He's simply out to capture the Three Titans of the Orange Islands and Lugia for his collection in order to make it legendary, and is not aware that he's causing the world harm. He only accidently captured Ash's team and has no actual hostility towards them, arguing he's merely a collector of rare things before leaving them to capture Articuno; it's unclear how he'd react if they had told him of what's happening outside his ship. |

| 395 | |
| 396 | The three Titans of the Orange Islands. Lawrence waking them up and trying to catch them ends up provoking their wrath, and their fighting ends up being much more dangerous than it first seems. |
| 397 | ----- |
| 398 | * AnimalisticAbomination: They're a trio of massive birds with elemental powers that have the potential to cause untold destruction. |
| 399 | * BigBadEnsemble: With Lawrence III, though their part in the story is his fault in the first place. They're attacking and nearly causing the apocalypse because he woke them up and royally ticked them off. |
| 400 | * BreathWeapon: Moltres has Flamethrower while Articuno shoots Ice Beam from its mouth. |
| 401 | * DuelToTheDeath: The peace between the three birds is very easily disrupted, and when Moltres suddenly goes missing, Zapdos claims its island. The fighting only gets worse from there — the reason none of the birds actually die is because they all collapse from exhaustion before they can strike any finishing blows. |
| 402 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The legendary birds behave like territorial wild animals (just bigger and way more destructive), contrary to subsequent Pokémon movies where most legendary Pokémon are shown to be sapient, intelligent and capable of speech. |
| 403 | * EnemyMine: When Lugia first appears the three birds temporarily stop attacking each other and focus entirely on taking down the lord of the seas, likely recognizing it as the biggest potential threat. Naturally, they go right back to fighting each other once Lugia is out of the picture. |
| 404 | * FeatheredFiend: They're a trio of temperamental birds with elemental powers. |
| 405 | * FireIceLightning: Moltres, Articuno and Zapdos, in that order. |
| 406 | * GiantFlyer: A trio of birds that are roughly the size of small airplanes. |
| 407 | * {{Kaiju}}: Smaller than most examples (though much bigger than their game counterparts), they more or less behave like them. |
| 408 | * MeleeATrois: Much of the conflict of the movie stems from each of the three birds trying take out the other two, and they don't give a damn about who gets caught up in the crossfire either. |
| 409 | * NonMaliciousMonster: Can you blame them for their rampage when some jerk woke them up and made them mad? The problem of course is that the three of them are borderline {{Physical God}}s... |
| 410 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: "Disturb not the harmony", because otherwise their fight will cause the actual end of the world. And they're not even trying to do that. |
| 411 | * UnstoppableRage: Once something upsets them, ''nothing'' stops them from taking their anger out on anything and everything in sight, consequences be damned, short of knocking them out. And that's easier said than done. |

| 423 | ---- |
| 424 | * AntiVillain: In a twist, she manages to check ''three'' types — II, III and IV. She wishes to be a Pokémon master, but her mom disappeared prior to the events of the movie and her dad's work requires him to be out for long, leading her to be lonely (Type II, Woobie). Using the power of the Unown, Molly gives herself her lifelong fantasies of a family, power, and her own home and strong Pokémon (Type III, Well-Intentioned). However, she doesn't realize she's doing anything wrong for most of the movie until the climax due to her very young age (Type IV, In-Name Only). |
| 425 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: The Unown are a LiteralGenie that consistently bring Molly's fantasies to life, giving her a daddy, a mommy, her own Pokémon and even a castle. But with increasingly destructive effects on the real world, including the kidnap and brainwashing of Delia Ketchum and the increasing crystallization of the surrounding countryside. It's not until Entei nearly kills Charizard that she realizes that her wishes have unwanted consequences. |
| 426 | * BreakTheCutie: She's ''five'', yet she undergoes crap no child that age should have to endure. |
| 427 | * ChildrenAreInnocent: Deconstructed; Molly's too young to fully realize that her wishes are having destructive consequences on the world around her. |
| 428 | * CuteBruiser: All of the Pokémon she uses against Brock (Flaaffy, Teddiursa and Phanpy) are quite cute, as well as stronger than they should be. |
| 429 | * DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: Of TheKidWithTheRemoteControl. Young children having powerful Pokémon is nothing new to the franchise, but Molly is ''too'' young to understand what she is commanding the Unown to do, and her grief at losing her parents results in her using their power to trap herself in a fantasy that can't give her what she really wants. By the time she realizes it, the Unown turn out to be far more powerful than her, leaving her unable to truly control them. |
| 430 | * DisappearedDad: Spencer Hale was spirited away by the Unown, possibly on accident, and it's his absence that eventually leads Molly to meet the Unown herself. |
| 431 | * DishingOutDirt: The Phanphy (Ground) she wishes for. |
| 432 | * HeelRealization: As things become more turbulent, she starts to realize the suffering her desires are causing. When Entei is on the verge of killing Ash's Charizard to appease her, she sobs for him to stop and to reverse all her wishes. |
| 433 | * HopelessBossFight: Her wished-up Pokémon completely dominate Misty and Brock during both respective fights, likely made more powerful so that Molly would win despite the vast difference in battle experience. Her Phanpy in particular is strong enough to send Brock's Onix flying with a single Rollout. |
| 434 | * MakingASplash: The Mantine and Kingdra she wishes for. |
| 435 | * MissingMom: Until the end credits, where she finally returns to her family. Her reasons for being absent differ; in the original Japanese, it's suggested she just walked out on Spencer for being obsessive about the Unown, whereas the dub changes it to the Unown having implicitly "disappeared" her. |
| 436 | * MsFanservice: Her adult form [[BuxomBeautyStandard is stacked]] and wears a micro dress under a sleeveless cardigan. Although it dips into FanDisservice when you remember who she ''really'' is. |
| 437 | * NonElemental: In her battle with Brock, she wishes for a Teddiursa, a Normal-type. And in the end credits, she's seen with a real Teddiursa. |
| 438 | * OlderAlterEgo: Uses Entei's powers to age herself due to worrying she might not be old enough to be a Pokemon trainer. She first transforms into a young adult, then de-ages herself to a young (but older than her current age) girl when she finds out that Misty is a Gym Leader. |
| 439 | * RememberTheNewGuy: Downplayed -- her family and was friends with the Ketchums back in the day, though Ash's response when Delia asks him if he remembers them, as well as his and Molly's visual ages in the photo where they're all together imply that it's been a while since they last connected. Despite this, Ash still tries to appeal to Molly by pointing out that they used to play together whenever they visited each other. |
| 440 | * SexierAlterEgo: Gets turned into a micro dress-wearing MsFanservice in her adult form. |
| 441 | * ShockAndAwe: The Flaaffy she wishes for. |
| 442 | * SleevesAreForWimps: Both of her {{older alter ego}}s aren't wearing any sleeves, likely for better throwing movements during Pokémon battles. |
| 443 | * SmokeOut: Kingdra's Smokescreen. |
| 444 | * ThemeNaming: With Amber of the third movie — Amber's Japanese name Ai is pronounced like the English word "I", while Molly's Japanese name Mii is pronounced like the English word "me". |
| 445 | * {{Tuckerization}}: Her Japanese name, Mii, is from the late Creator/TakeshiShudo[='=]s nickname for his own daughter. |
| 446 | * TrueBlueFemininity: Always seen wearing a blue and white dress. |
| 447 | * UnderwaterBossBattle: She challenges Misty to a Water Type battle since she knows it's the latter's specialty, so she summoned a tsunami to engulf them. |
| 448 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: Downplayed. When Ash tries to help her remember him and calm down a bit, he brings up that they used to play together when they were younger. She evidently ''doesn't'' remember this and in her defense, Ash only seems to vaguely remember himself. |
| 449 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Her messed-up life leads her to mess with cosmic forces that drive the conflict of the story. |
| 450 | * YourMindMakesItReal: Can essentially create anything she wants with the help of the Unown. |

| 457 | Molly's father. |
| 458 | ---- |
| 459 | * DisappearedDad: For the duration of the movie; his exploration of Unown ruins led to his disappearance. |
| 460 | * GoodParents: Is a genuinely loving and supportive father to his daughter Molly, to the point his disappearance is ultimately what leads her to abusing the Unown's power. |
| 461 | * ParentsAsPeople: His job requires him to leave his daughter at times (and leads to his disappearance), but he definitely loves her. |
| 462 | * PresentAbsence: His disappearance led to Molly messing with the Unown, which becomes the entire plot of the 3rd movie. |
| 463 | * RememberTheNewGuy: Similar to Molly. Spencer is noted to be an old student of Professor Oak's and a good friend of Delia's, but he'd never been mentioned until this movie and never appears again after. |
| 464 | * SatelliteCharacter: Justified - he was trapped in another dimension for the duration of the movie and only returns at the very end. |

| 471 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Naoto Takenaka (Japanese), Creator/DanGreen (English), Alfonso Ramírez (Latin American Spanish) |
| 472 | ---- |
| 473 | * AffablyEvil: Entei was created by the Unown to replace Molly's father as her father figure while he was away, and he certainly loved Molly. He was also well-spoken towards the heroes all things considered. |
| 474 | * AntiVillain: Types I and IV (Noble and In-Name Only). Entei only opposes the heroes because Molly wants him to. Rather justified given he was literally created by the Unown to fulfill her wishes. |
| 475 | * BerserkButton: Seems particularly enraged when Ash keeps calling him an illusion, and when the heroes still refuse to back away from him and Molly. |
| 476 | * BlueAndOrangeMorality: Entei is a living wish and has no concept of "Right or Wrong", only "What Molly wants and What Molly doesn't want". He may only object to being called an illusion because Molly considers him real. |
| 477 | * ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:With the Unown defeated, he can no longer be sustained and vanishes after giving Molly a heartfelt goodbye.]] |
| 478 | * CharacterCatchphrase: "If that is what you wish." |
| 479 | * FaceDeathWithDignity: At the end Entei helps the heroes defeat the Unown, knowing full well that he depends on them in order to exist and that he'll disappear afterwards. |
| 480 | * HypnotizeTheCaptive: All it takes is a powerful look and an imperative sentence from Entei and Delia falls under the power of Molly's fantasy. |
| 481 | * MadeOfMagic: Or whatever power the Unown wield. Entei is a living wish, and produces the same crystallizing process; his footprints leave crystal trails. |
| 482 | * MeaningfulTitles: ''Emperor of the Crystal Tower'', from the Japanese title of the movie. |
| 483 | * MyMasterRightOrWrong: Said almost word for word: |
| 484 | -->'''Ash:''' "Please Entei, listen to me! If you really care about Molly you'll let her come with us. It's not right for her to stay here with you — you ''have'' to let her go!"\ |
| 485 | '''Entei:''' "Whether it is right or wrong, I will ''do'' as SHE WISHES!" |
| 486 | * PapaWolf: Invoked and subverted. Again, Entei doesn't actually think in terms of what's best for Molly, but of protecting and preserving the fantasy she's helping create. |
| 487 | * ParentalSubstitute: Was what the Unown created when Molly wished for someone to be her "Papa". |
| 488 | * PlayingWithFire: Is a Fire-type. |
| 489 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Zigzagged. The Unown created Entei from Molly's mental association between her father and Entei, and so long as she considers them to be the same, Entei will be Papa. |
| 490 | * SignificantDoubleCasting: In every language, Entei has Spencer's voice, because as far as Molly's concerned he ''is'' Spencer. |
| 491 | * StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Because the Unown created him out from Molly's mind, he can theoretically be as strong as Molly imagines him to be. The only one of Ash's Pokémon that gives him even a little trouble is Charizard —who is established to be one of the toughest ''before'' getting his training— and even then Entei comes out on top. In the end Molly uses this to help him defeat the Unown, allowing him to one-shot them after being unable to even get close. |
| 492 | * TalkingAnimal: Can speak in human languages just fine via telepathy. |
| 493 | * UndyingLoyalty: As the embodiment of Molly's wish to have her father back, he will do whatever she asks without question. |
| 494 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: His only desires are to ensure Molly gets what she wants, and will do anything to accomplish that; problem is he gets into a lot of conflict with the protagonists over his more questionable ''methods'' of doing so. |

| 497 | [[folder:Unown]] |
| 498 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/unown_m03.png]] |
| 499 | A group of Pokémon that have control over reality-warping powers and are responsible for the plot of the third movie. They live in another dimension called "the Unown Dimension", and have appeared multiple times throughout the anime and other movies. |
| 500 | ---- |
| 501 | * TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects: Notably rendered in CGI compared to everyone else in the movie, which helps to emphasize their eerie, otherworldly nature. |
| 502 | * AdaptationalAbomination: The Unown go from being a weak, one-note Pokémon in the games to being immensely powerful reality-warping creatures from another universe. |
| 503 | * AdaptationalBadass: A shining example -- in the games, they're {{Joke Character}}s who, while playing a large part of the Pokémon lore, are among the absolute worst Pokémon of all time, with only Hidden Power as their possible move and nothing else. But in the movies, they're powerful {{Reality Warper}}s who stand leagues above most other Pokémon in sheer power and can even ''create'' replicas of legendaries like Entei. Justified since several Pokedex entries in the games note that Unown become more powerful when they gather in large numbers. |
| 504 | * AlmightyIdiot: The Unown don't actually exhibit any intelligence, they simply show up and start warping reality. |
| 505 | * AlwaysABiggerFish: As powerful as the Unown are, even they know Dialga and Palkia are stronger. |
| 506 | * AntiVillain: A Type IV (In-Name Only). Though they're the main antagonistic forces that drive the plot, they have no concept of right or wrong. They're simply awoken and grant Molly her fantasies. |
| 507 | * BigBad: The ''true'' antagonistic forces of the film. However, they're not truly evil, they simply lack a compass. |
| 508 | * BlueAndOrangeMorality: The Unown really don't comprehend that they're doing anything wrong, not because they're unaware of what they're doing, but because they have a completely alien morality and thus don't work with human moral compasses. |
| 509 | * CommutingOnABus: The Unown appear in other anime episodes, specials and movies afterwards. Particularly, they [[TheBusCameBack come back]] in ''The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon'', and reappear in the ''Diamond and Pearl'' series, especially in ''The Rise of Darkrai''. |
| 510 | * CreepyChildrenSinging: When they aren't giggling, the Unown chant PokemonSpeak in high-pitched singsong. |
| 511 | * EldritchAbomination: They're a reality bending HiveMind from another dimension. |
| 512 | * ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The dimension they live in is known as the "Unown Dimension". |
| 513 | * GigglingVillain: They giggle adorably and creepily sometimes. Or at least, they seem to. |
| 514 | * MorphicResonance: A variation, as they do it to someone else. When Molly wishes to be old enough to be a Pokémon trainer, the wish is granted, but her adult form wears earrings that have a black outline and a white center - like an Unown eye. |
| 515 | * NoOntologicalInertia: Once the Unown are defeated, the changes they made revert as though nothing happened. |
| 516 | * NotSoHarmlessVillain: Partly the reason why they're so dangerous -- they don't want to be disturbed. |
| 517 | * PowerIncontinence: They eventually lose control of their power after using it too much. |
| 518 | * RealityWarper: They alter reality based on Molly's thoughts. |
| 519 | * TheWorfEffect: As powerful as they are, even they are nothing next to Dialga and Palkia, when the two Legendaries start clashing (and in the Unowns' own dimension, no less), the Unown are shown [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere fleeing in panic from the clashes]], showing that not even such powerhouses stand a chance against the Gods of Time and Space. |

| 544 | |
| 545 | A dangerous and ruthless elite operative of Team Rocket and the main antagonist of the fourth film. |
| 546 | ---- |
| 547 | * AGodAmI: "I control the most powerful Pokémon in the world!" |
| 548 | * AxCrazy: The fact that almost every scene he appears in has him [[EvilLaugh laughing maniacally]] definitely paints him as this. |
| 549 | * BeardOfEvil: Has a beard and is a nasty piece of work. He also gets the dubious honor of being the first CardCarryingVillain of the movies. |
| 550 | * BigBad: Of the fourth movie. He callously wrecks a good portion of Ilex Forest with Celebi under his control and nearly destroys the Lake of Life. |
| 551 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: His Scizor. |
| 552 | * BlingBlingBang: He's wearing golden helmet, belt, [[SpikesOfVillainy shoulder spikes]], boots and bracelets. |
| 553 | * CardCarryingVillain: He openly boasts that the Pokémon he catches with the Dark Ball become evil Pokémon, with their power instantly increasing to the highest level. |
| 554 | * CoolMask: We finally get to see him without it at the end of the movie, after his defeat. |
| 555 | * DarkIsEvil: Two of his known Pokémon, Sneasel and Tyranitar, are Dark-type. And that's not getting into the whole business with the Dark Balls. |
| 556 | * DoppelgangerSpin: Scizor's Double Team. |
| 557 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: After barely a minute of screentime, he captures and corrupts the hunter's Tyranitar and has it lay waste to the poor man's ranch to get Celebi's whereabouts. |
| 558 | * EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: His moniker in the dub is “Iron-Masked Marauder”, and he is not known by any proper name besides that. |
| 559 | * EvilerThanThou: |
| 560 | ** He's introduced interrogating the movie's StarterVillain and his establishing character moment has him terrify the guy into submission. |
| 561 | ** While a Team Rocket member that is more evil and effective than Jessie, James and Meowth is hardly rare, this guy leaves the trio completely horrified by his sociopathic methods, and trumps even other factions by even planning to back stab Giovanni himself. |
| 562 | * EvilIsHammy: He has a loud voice that he uses to boast of his evilness. That's what happens when a villain is voiced by '''Creator/DanGreen'''. |
| 563 | * FlatCharacter: There's ultimately not much to him apart from being a power-hungry, merciless brute whose main goal is to TakeOverTheWorld. |
| 564 | * HateSink: He has no positive traits whatsoever; being pure evil and is certainly proud of it. |
| 565 | * HeroKiller: [[spoiler:The main characters nearly died because of him, and he even causes Celebi's DisneyDeath.]] |
| 566 | * JetPack: Equipped with one in case things go south. It didn't help him in the end, obviously. |
| 567 | * KnightOfCerebus: He's one of the first truly vile villains to appear in the movies. In addition to being completely devoid of redeeming qualities, he also tries several times to have [[WouldHurtAChild Ash and his friends killed]], and his actions nearly resulted in [[spoiler:Celebi's death]]. |
| 568 | * LackOfEmpathy: He doesn't care about anything other than raising Pokémon to their highest level and capturing Celebi to do the same in order to TakeOverTheWorld. |
| 569 | * MadeOfIron: He falls from hundreds of feet in the air, crashes through several tree branches and lands hard on the ground, and somehow survives this without even losing consciousness. |
| 570 | * MalevolentMaskedMan: Masked and the first nefarious movie villain introduced. |
| 571 | * MilesGloriosus: For all his truly depraved and malicious actions throughout the movie, after his whole plan is finally taken part, he grovels pathetically against Towa and some {{Com Mon}}s. |
| 572 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: His original Japanese name, Vicious, is taken from late Music/SexPistols bassist Music/SidVicious. |
| 573 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Iron-Masked Marauder does ''not'' sound like someone you'd want to come face to face with. His Japanese name, Vicious, is no slouch on this either. |
| 574 | * ObviouslyEvil: MalevolentMaskedMan? Check. BeardOfEvil? Check. SlasherSmile? Check. His entire demeanor just reeks evil. |
| 575 | * RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: The majority of his outfit is black, but he wears a red vest over it. His Scizor and Sneasel also count. |
| 576 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: More glowing red eyes on his mask device, but it still counts. |
| 577 | * {{Sadist}}: He gleefully proves to be one when he succeeds in capturing Celebi with his Spider-Machine's claw, brutally electrocuting it, before capturing it in a Dark Ball. [[spoiler:Then, he reveals his true plans to use its power to overthrow [[BadBoss Giovanni]] and rule Team Rocket and the entire world himself.]] |
| 578 | * TheSociopath: He takes appalling delight in destroying the forest and crushing the minds of innocent Pokémon. |
| 579 | * SpiderTank: Has one where he got around in during the movie. |
| 580 | * TheStarscream: He planned on using Celebi to take over Team Rocket and eventually the world. Fairly small goal with the power of a time traveling legendary. |
| 581 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Downplayed but still noticeable. The Team Rocket members shown at that point are ''definitely'' far from saints, but they at least [[EvenEvilHasStandards have standards]]. |
| 582 | * VillainRespect: Upon finding his Sneasel and Scizor tied to some rocks after fighting Ash and co., he just laughs and says, "Those kids are tougher than they look." |
| 583 | * VillainsWantMercy: Without the rest of his Dark Balls, he's at the mercy of the angry forest Pokémon before being tied up with a web shot. |
| 584 | * WouldHurtAChild: He not only has Celebi try to kill Ash and Sam multiple times, but he tries to kick Ash off of him when jet-packing several miles high up in the air. |
| 585 | * WrongContextMagic: It is an established fact that Poké Balls can't capture Pokémon that already belong to a Trainer, but the Marauder's Dark Balls have no such limitation. The only other Poké Balls able to do this are the "Mewtwo Balls" from ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' and the Snag Machine-enhanced balls in ''Videogame/PokemonColosseum'' and ''VideoGame/PokemonXDGaleOfDarkness''. |
| 586 | * YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: The Marauder's attitude when seeing Scizor and Sneasel tied up. He just leaves them there without a care and continues to pursue Ash and Celebi. His decision comes back to bite him back after he loses all his weapons and left at the mercy of the forest Pokémon. |

| 599 | * BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: He openly boasts about capturing rare Pokémon so he can sell them to the highest bidder. In the present, his camp houses many Pokémon in cages, waiting to be sold. |
| 600 | * BeingEvilSucks: As an old man, selling Pokémon doesn't seem to make enough money for him to live on, given that he lives alone on the outskirts of society in a tiny, run-down trailer, with seemingly no family or friends around. Also, it's only because he boasted about trying to capture Celebi 40 years ago that the Iron-Masked Marauder hunts him down to interrogate him about its location, steals his Tyranitar, and then burns his house down ForTheEvulz. |
| 601 | * CrazyPrepared: He uses a Scyther and Houndoom to try and capture Celebi, both of whom have types super-effective against his target. |
| 602 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: Being the one hunting for Celebi in the prologue, one would think he's the film's main villain [[BigBadDuumvirate or at least]] [[BigBadEnsemble one of them]]. |
| 603 | * TheDreaded: Implied. His first appearance is heralded by several forest Pokémon fleeing from him in terror, assuming they weren't just scared off by the revving of his motorcycle. |
| 604 | * ElectronicEyes: His right eye is missing and has been replaced with some kind of electronic scope. |
| 605 | * EvilIsBurningHot: One of his Pokémon is Houndoom, a half-Fire-type that doesn't hesitate to blast a Flamethrower at Sammy's head. |
| 606 | * EvilOldFolks: Even as an old man, he's still poaching Pokémon for a living. However, he doesn't seem to have made much money from it, given that he lives in a run-down trailer in the middle of nowhere. |
| 607 | * EvilPoacher: He poaches Pokémon and sells them for money. However, he's nothing compared to [[EvilerThanThou the Iron-Masked Marauder.]] |
| 608 | * NoNameGiven: He never states his name, nor does anyone ask for it. His Bulbapedia article simply refers to him as "Pokémon poacher". |
| 609 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appears at the beginning of the movie and never interacts with the main cast (save for Sammy 40 years ago), but his actions set the plot in motion. Celebi time-travels to the present with Sammy to escape from him, it's because of him that the Iron-Masked Marauder knows where to find Celebi at all, and the Tyranitar he captured is nabbed by the Marauder's Dark Ball and used in battle against Suicune. |
| 610 | * StarterVillain: The first villain to appear in the movie, chasing down Celebi in order to capture it. |
| 611 | * UncertainDoom: The last we see of him, his camp is in flames and he's been left at the mercy of the sadistic, ruthless Iron-Masked Marauder. |
| 612 | * VillainousCheekbones: He's very thin and bony, and has prominent cheekbones. |
| 613 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He had a Scyther and Houndoom 40 years ago, but they're nowhere to be seen in the present day. |

| 623 | * CoolOldLady: She is caring, wise and kind, and not once in forty years did she forget about Sammy. |
| 624 | * {{Foil}}: Towa is still wearing the same traditional robes she was wearing forty years ago (albeit she appears to have upgraded from one vertical stripe down the chest to two), but Diana wears modern clothes. |
| 625 | * HairstyleInertia: As an old woman, her hairstyle remains nearly identical to what it was when she was young--her bangs have vanished and her hairline is receding, however. |

| 627 | * IWasQuiteALooker: She was just as good-looking as her granddaughter forty years ago. |

| 629 | * MiniatureSeniorCitizens: [[VagueAge If we assume she was a teenager]] in the epilogue, then Towa of the present day isn't even sixty years old, but she's still lost perhaps a third of her height. |

| 643 | * MeaningfulName: Her Japanese name, Miku, is an alternate reading of ''mirai,'' meaning "future". Fitting, as the time period she lives in, while the present day to us, is the future to Sam and Celebi. |

| 712 | ->'''Oakley voiced by:''' Yumiko Shaku (Japanese), Creator/LisaOrtiz (English), Creator/CristinaHernandez (Latin American Spanish) |
| 713 | |
| 714 | The main villains of this movie. A thieving criminal duo (in Team Rocket's employ in the English dub) who come to Alto Mare in search of the Soul Dew and the city's guardians. |
| 715 | ---- |
| 716 | * BadassNormal: The sisters are unafraid of taking on Legendary Pokémon (who tend to be quite powerful) with their gadgets and acrobatic skills. |
| 717 | * BareMidriffsAreFeminine: By night, they wear pants and short tops that put their midsections and navels on full display. |
| 718 | * BigBadDuumvirate: Of ''Heroes'', though Oakley's the more assertive of the two. |
| 719 | * CallingCard: The two leave behind a rose and a card with their lip symbols on it at the library, following their theft of the book on Alto Mare's history. |
| 720 | * DarkActionGirl: Both girls are fully capable of kicking ass, and are the movie's main antagonists. |
| 721 | * DrunkWithPower: When Oakley takes control of the DMA, she devolves into a laughing psychopath who relishes the ability to control the whole city of Alto Mare (possibly even the entire world, according to the English dub). Annie is left horrified by what she has become. |
| 722 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: Once Oakley degenerates into an unhinged psycho while controlling the DMA, Annie is clearly horrified. |
| 723 | * EvilDuo: Provide a surprising amount of information as to the movie's setting, while gradually serving as {{Foil}}s to each other. Oakley seems to be in charge most of the time however. |
| 724 | * GadgeteerGenius: They have a wide array of useful gadgets at their disposal, such as a transforming vehicle, a flying spy camera, sunglasses that see through disguises and invisibility, and expanding electrified nets. |
| 725 | * GiantSpider: Oakley's Pokémon is a particularly large and strong Ariados, complete with entangling webs and ghostly energy beams. |
| 726 | * GratuitousFrench: Annie occasionally speaks it in the Japanese version. |
| 727 | * HellBentForLeather: Their main outfits are made of shiny black leather. |
| 728 | * ImprobableHairstyle: Annie's hair is styled into two, curly pigtails, both bigger than her head. |
| 729 | * InstitutionalApparel: At the end of the film, they both wear black-and-white striped uniforms in prison. |
| 730 | * LightIsNotGood: Annie's Pokémon is an Espeon, which evolves from an Eevee with extreme happiness during the bright hours of daylight. |
| 731 | * LovelyAngels: Two women who work closely together and [[spoiler:initially]] have the same goals, but their contrasts in personality become more apparent as the movie goes on. |
| 732 | * MsFanservice: Their black leather outfits; consisting of skintight, halterneck crop tops and low-rise pants, elbow-length gloves, lean, shapely figures, greatly exposed midriffs and red lipstick make them very appealing to the eyes. |
| 733 | * {{Narcissist}}: Annie is highly concerned about her looks, and she doesn't take her clothes getting wet very well at all. |
| 734 | * PhantomThief: The two girls lack the good intentions of the average ClassyCatBurglar, but are introduced using fancy gadgets and acrobatic maneuvers to break into a library and steal a rare book, while leaving behind a rose and a card with the colors on their respective outfits intersected. |
| 735 | * PinkMeansFeminine: Annie is the girlier of the duo and has a pink sleeve on her HellBentForLeather outfit, while the more focused Oakley has a purple one for her outfit (although her personality doesn't quite qualify her for GracefulLadiesLikePurple). Annie also wears a pink dress while traveling through town. |
| 736 | * {{Roofhopping}}: Both of them get around on foot by running, jumping and even flipping across rooftops with impeccable finesse. |
| 737 | * SexyBacklessOutfit: While not shown very well in the film, due to the pair carrying backpacks whenever they're wearing them, their halterneck crop tops leave much of their backs exposed. |
| 738 | * TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: The English dub gives Annie and Oakley affiliation with Team Rocket, and establishes their job as an assignment from Giovanni, despite all of their actions ultimately having nothing to do with them. |
| 739 | * TheSmartGirl: Oakley is the one who does all the planning and technical work, making her the brains of the duo. |
| 740 | * ThemeNaming: Just like Jessie & James and Butch & Cassidy, they are a pair named after someone from the old west (though a cowgirl and a lot less villainous). |
| 741 | * WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Oakley spends most of the movie being grounded and pragmatic (albeit still villainous), but starts endangering everyone in the same city as her and talking about world conquest as soon as she starts using the stunningly powerful [=DMA=] device. |
| 742 | * WouldHurtAChild: They already have no qualms with hurting kids like Ash and Bianca, but Oakley takes it a step further by actively trying to drown Ash with the DMA (and enjoying every moment of it). |

| 753 | * DamselInDistress: Mostly at the beginning. And, in a way, when she goes to Ash for help in saving Latios. |
| 754 | * GenkiGirl: She's very lively and energetic, more so than either her brother or her best friend, Bianca (the latter of whom she imitates). |
| 755 | * IdenticalTwinIDTag: She doesn't wear Bianca's white hat when disguising as her, [[CuteMute nor does she speak]]. |
| 756 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: She's red instead of pink, but otherwise counts - both coloring ''and'' personality-wise she's this to both her brother ''and'' to Ash. |
| 757 | * SeeingThroughAnothersEyes: She share this ability with her brother Latios, letting her see what he sees and can even share that with others around her. |
| 758 | * ShapeShifter: It's rather ambiguous whether it's this or some sort of illusion, but various factors (mainly human-form Latias doing and being affected by things that would be... tricky in her true form) make it lean to actual shape-changing. |

| 826 | * AmbiguousGender: Played straight in the Japanese version, the movie follows the game’s rule of Jirachi being genderless, and has a fairly neutral voice. Averted in the English dub where Jirachi is given the voice of a young boy and is referred to by male pronouns. |

| 842 | * AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: This fake Groudon is much larger than the real one's official height of 11 feet. |
| 843 | * AuraVision: Since both Meta Groudon and Jirachi use power from the Wishing Star, the former can generally “see” where the latter is at any given time. Meta Groudon wants Jirachi because of that, [[SuperPersistentPredator and will let nothing get in its way]]. |

| 860 | ---- |

| 862 | * LonelyRichKid: Seems to spend most of his time alone, thanks to his fear of Pokémon. |
| 863 | * TraumaButton: Getting too close to Pokémon is this. Blastoise nearly hitting him with Rapid Spin during his and Ash's tag team battle causes him to flashback to the stampede that caused his fear. |
| 864 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Due to being caught in the middle of a Sealeo and Walrein stampede in his early childhood, he has a crippling fear of Pokémon and isn't much better around their trainers. |

| 946 | * IdenticalTwinIDTag: Turns out there's two Deoxys; the difference is in the mark on their faces and crystals. The rampaging one has a purple mark, while the one who was initially just a blob has a green mark. |
| 947 | * NonStandardCharacterDesign: Green Deoxys has a different colored facial marking and crystal than normal Deoxys. |
| 948 | * MadeOfIndestructium: Purple Deoxys' crystal doesn't have a scratch on it even after being hit by Rayquaza's Hyper Beam at point-blank range. However, the same doesn't apply to Deoxys' ''body'', which was totally vaporized in the blast and took four years to fully regenerate. |
| 949 | * MesACrowd: Unlike the usual exmple in Double Team, Purple Deoxys is able to multiply itself and make clones to do its bidding. |
| 950 | * MoralityPet: Green Deoxys might be this to Purple Deoxys, as it is the one who convinces it to stop. |
| 951 | * PoorCommunicationKills: Their inability to communicate with the humans and other Pokémon caused most of the movies problems. |

| 980 | * MsFanservice: There are a ''lot'' of shots of her from behind when she's in her catsuit. |
| 981 | * SamusIsAGirl: At the start of the movie she's seen in a suit of armor. It's also an in-universe example as well, seeing how Ash and Co. reacted when she took her helmet off. |
| 982 | * TeenGenius: Implied, if she made her various gadgets herself rather than the organization she works for making them. |
| 983 | * TeenSuperspy: She's a teenage girl doing covert work for a mysterious organization. We never find out what this organization is called or what they do. |
| 984 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Everything that goes wrong in the movie were indirectly caused by her and her organization, as while on a mission, she sends her Weaviles to try to attach a tracking device onto Mew, causing a scuffle that leaves Pikachu injured and Mew whisking it and Meowth away to the Tree of Beginnings.

| 991 | ---- |
| 992 | * AmbiguouslyRelated: |
| 993 | ** Ash is a rare user of aura like him, and matched his aura and appearance such that [[AuraVision Lucario]] mistook Ash for Aaron. It was so long ago Ash might as well be a distant descendant. |
| 994 | ** Riley from Sinnoh looks identical to him in addition to being the only other known living aura user besides Ash. He even has his own Lucario. |
| 995 | * BadassCape: Has a rather long one that not only matches the color of his hat but also seems tattered at the end. |
| 996 | * BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: [[spoiler:What he ''really'' did to Lucario, so he wouldn't share in Aaron's HeroicSacrifice.]] |
| 997 | * IDidWhatIHadToDo: [[spoiler:Sealed Lucario away because he ''knew'' Lucario's loyalty to him would lead to him following and suffering the same fate he did.]] |
| 998 | * HeroicSacrifice: Sacrificed his life to stop a war that would have devastated his kingdom. |
| 999 | * PoorCommunicationKills: [[spoiler:Sealed Lucario to save him from suffering the same fate, but never told him. Thus, Lucario just ends up thinking Aaron betrayed him until the end.]] |
| 1000 | * PosthumousCharacter: Is only actually seen alive in the movie's intro; all his other appearances are flashbacks, Time Flower recordings, and [[spoiler:a post-credits scene heavily implied to be set in the afterlife]], Despite this he's one of the most important characters to the movie's plot and Lucario's personal story in particular. |
| 1001 | * ShipTease: It is heavily implied that both he and Rin loved one another, as he found her beautiful and gave his life to save her kingdom, and she broke down in tears after learning of his death. |

| 1013 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She clearly cares about Lucario, Ash and the gang, and everyone in TheGoodKingdom. |

| 1045 | ---- |
| 1046 | * BreakoutCharacter: The film's success resulted to Lucario's enduring popularity as one of the franchise's most beloved and recognized Pokémon. |
| 1047 | * BrokenBird: Rare male example; Sir Aaron's seeming betrayal left him with a severe distrust of humans, as well as a cynical disbelief that Pokémon and humans could ever truly bond. |
| 1048 | * DefrostingIceKing: While somewhat cold and harsh with Ash and the others in the beginning, after being on the receiving end of their kindness, and seeing that Ash's devotion to Pikachu isn't an act, he begins to open up and trust them. |

| 1052 | * KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:As part of his HeroicSacrifice; one of the few characters in the film series to actually be killed off.]] |
| 1053 | * ManlyTears: [[spoiler:Right after he learns the truth about why Aaron sealed him away as well as him finally learning Aaron viewed him as a dear friend more than anything rather than them being a "master-servant" relationship as Lucario always thought. By the end of said reveal, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Lucario_crying.png Lucario is openly weeping]].]] |
| 1054 | * NotSoStoic: He's cold, detached and distrustful, but when the truth about Sir Aaron's actions is revealed, Lucario breaks down crying. |
| 1055 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Averted. Red eyes are merely a species-wide trait, and he's very much a hero... [[KnightInSourArmor just one grown jaded and cynical by an apparent betrayal.]] |
| 1056 | * RestoredMyFaithInHumanity: A downplayed and straight example. Midway through the movie Lucario finally realizes Ash's bond with Pikachu is genuine and vows to help them so they can have what he and Aaron couldn't. [[spoiler: Played straight at the end when Lucario learns the real reason Aaron sealed him away and that Aaron also genuinely viewed him as a close friend.]] |
| 1057 | * SealedGoodInACan: Gets sealed in Sir Aaron's staff at the beginning, and stays there for at least a few centuries before finally being freed, though upon being released he initially has no clue any time has passed. |
| 1058 | * SixthRanger: Despite not technically joining his team or receiving commands, Lucario acts as Ash's sixth member and protects him after they settle their differences. |

| 1121 | ---- |
| 1122 | * AmbiguousGender: Whether it's a male or female, Its always referred to as "The Prince of The Sea". |
| 1123 | * BigDamnHeroes: Manaphy manages to heal a sea's worth of Pokemon by itself when Phantom uses an artificial Supersonic emitted by his submarine. Once Kyogre is healed of its confusion, Manaphy [[GoodIsNotSoft orders it to fire a Hyper Beam at the sub to completely finish it off.]] |
| 1124 | * CuteButCacophonic: Manaphy may always be cute, but you probably might not want to hear its shrill voice and cry, including where it cried over May's absence before uses [[FreakyFridayFlip Heart Swap]] on Ash and Jackie. |
| 1125 | * DissonantSerenity: Manaphy was ironically happy to see Ash with Jackie's voice after it used Heart Swap in the Anime. It probably makes sense that Manaphy is too young to understand Danger. |
| 1126 | * NonIndicativeName: Despite the popular belief, Manaphy isn't technically royalty at all at all to begin with. Many humans call Manaphy "PRINCE of the sea" because it was rare. |
| 1127 | * TalkingAnimal: However it can only say "Happy" and "Love You" as it is still a baby, until the end where it says May's name. In the original Japanese version, it says her Japanese name (Haruka). |

| 1143 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: Yung ultimately does himself in through writing all of the Mirage System's data into Mewtwo, as while this does make Mirage Mewtwo much stronger, it ultimately turns it into the system's weak point and gives Mirage Mew the power to hold Mirage Mewtwo so it's left open for an attack. |

| 1163 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Right after it awakens, it proceeds to one-shot all of the other Mirages present with a single Shadow Ball, showing just how much more powerful it is. |

| 1219 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Apparently, his death was within the realm of Palkia's influence whilst in its realm, and so he was recomposed after Alamos Town was returned to the physical plane.]] |
| 1220 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Alicia opened her heart to him when no one else would, instilling in Darkrai a deep loyalty towards both her and her IdenticalGranddaughter, Alice. |

| 1228 | * DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:His dramatic onscreen demise is undone once Palkia restores the town.]] |
| 1229 | * GetOut: Variations of it, which form most of his dialogue. [[spoiler:He's speaking to Palkia and Dialga.]] |
| 1230 | * HeroicSacrifice: He directly gets in the way of Dialga and Palkia's beams, and perishes for it. |
| 1231 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Downplayed on the "jerk" part -- granted, he's fairly inclined towards aggression than negotiation, which can't have helped the public opinion of him. Despite this, there's a ''major'' emphasis on his Heart of Gold. |
| 1232 | * LightningBruiser: He's strong enough to hold his own against [[PhysicalGods Dialga and Palkia]] ''simultaneously''. Even more impressively, his primary focus at the time was protecting Alima and its inhabitants. |
| 1233 | * MadeOfIron: Darkrai takes ''a lot'' of punishment throughout the movie, being hit dead on constantly by two OlympusMons and continuing to get back up. It takes [[spoiler:being killed]] for him to finally stop. |
| 1234 | * NotHelpingYourCase: His aggressive behavior and tendency to trap people in nightmares really doesn't do much to convince anyone of his good intentions. |

| 1247 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: The only Legendary to appear in three straight movies; sure enough, despite being the more antagonistic of thre Creation Trio, it becomes a big influence in ''Arceus and the Jewel of Life'', where [[spoiler:its time powers let it send Ash and co. back in time to prevent Arceus from developing a hatred of humans and trying to destroy the world]]. |
| 1248 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: Its fight with Palkia caused damage to all of existence and almost destroyed it completely. |

| 1250 | * TimeMaster: Its ability to manipulate the flow of time indirectly causes the initial conflict in Movie 11, and helps resolve it in 12. |

| 1252 | * WorfHadTheFlu: Leaves most of the fight against Arceus in Movie 12 up to Palkia and Giratina, because sending the protagonists back in time drained it of too much energy. |

| 1296 | ---- |
| 1297 | * AdaptationalBadass: Its [[SecretArt Seed Flare]]. In the games, it's a very strong attack that can even potentially [[DamageIncreasingDebuff disrupt the opponent's defenses]]. Here, it's even stronger, being able to create portals back to the normal world at the Distortion World. |
| 1298 | * AdaptationalWimp: In the games, Shaymin is a RidiculouslyCuteCritter that's also [[BadassAdorable very powerful]], par for the course for a Mythical Pokémon. This Shaymin, however, suffers from MilesGloriosus syndrome until its powered up by the Gracidea. |
| 1299 | * BrattyHalfPint: Its Land Forme has an ego the size of a Wailord and, ironically for a Pokémon based around gratefulness, was rather bossy and ungrateful to Ash and co. Averted in its Sky Forme, though.- |
| 1300 | * TheCameo: Appears during the ending credits of ''Arceus and the Jewel of Life''. |
| 1301 | * DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: It only became involved in the Creation Trio feud because Dialga was drinking from the same lake when Giratina struck. |
| 1302 | * EmotionEater: Downplayed. It grows several extra flowers when exposed to feelings of gratitude. Giratina can sense this, so Shaymin presumably gets some kind of energy from it. |
| 1303 | * FantasticNuke: The result of Seed Flare upon coming into contact with toxic or dirty fumes like an overturned barbecue or the poison clouds in the Distortion World. It's powerful enough to create a crater depending on the toxicity as revealed by Nurse Joy from a previous incident which tore down a forest, while the Distortion World's poison clouds are enough to rip holes between worlds. |
| 1304 | * GoodIsNotNice: Its Land Forme was a [[ImproperlyParanoid cowardly]], {{ungrateful|Bastard}}, BrattyHalfPint. Its Sky Forme subverts this though, being genuinely heroic and even being sincerely grateful upon having to leave Ash and the gang. |
| 1305 | * GreenThumb: Its a Grass-type, and has power over flowers. |
| 1306 | * ImproperlyParanoid: [[AntiVillain Giratina]] only wanted to use its powers to leave the Distortion World. Unfortunately, it was dealing with a scaredy cat of a Pokémon. |
| 1307 | * InvoluntaryShapeshifting: Whenever it comes in contact with Gracidea pollen, it turns into Sky Forme and will change back into Land Forme when the sun sets or if it comes into contact with the cold. |
| 1308 | * {{Irony}}: Shaymin is the "Gratitude Pokémon". This one is... [[UngratefulBastard far from grateful]]. |
| 1309 | * JerkassToOne: To Ash. It doesn't get worse when you ride on someone's head so they can suffer if something happens to you. Shaymin gets better at the end, though. |
| 1310 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: At first, it starts as a cowardly, ungrateful BrattyHalfPint who does nothing to help Ash and co., even bossing them around. Ultimately, however, it proves to be truly heroic during the climax, and is even sad to leave Ash. |
| 1311 | * LovableCoward: Cowardly, but cute and funny. |
| 1312 | * MilesGloriosus: Bossy, mean and everything in-between in its Land Forme, but when it came to facing Giratina, terrified beyond straight. With the help of the Gracidea and Ash and co., it gets better. |
| 1313 | * SitcomArchnemesis: With Ash during the movie. It plays a lot of mean pranks to him, such as "exploding" (using Seed Flare) whenever Ash was around, and riding on his head so both would suffer whatever doom Shaymin would. It reveals at the end of the movie that it never truly disliked Ash. |
| 1314 | * SuperMode: It changes into its Sky Forme when exposed to pollen from Gracidea flowers. As in the games, though, it reverts at sunset. |
| 1315 | * TakingYouWithMe: The reason why it wanted to ride on Ash's head was because [[ItAmusedMe it wanted him to share the suffering if something happened to it]]. The ending, however, reveals [[IneffectualDeathThreats this wasn't really the case]]. |
| 1316 | * TalkingAnimal: Speaks via telepathy. |
| 1317 | * TookALevelInKindness: Sky Forme Shaymin is brave, heroic, friendly and, most importantly, actually grateful to the gang once the plot is resolved. |
| 1318 | * UngratefulBastard: {{Iron|y}}ically for the "Gratitude Pokémon", this Shaymin was everything but. At least in its Land Forme; its Sky Forme was much kinder. |

| 1323 | Ruler of the Reverse World. It harbors a great grudge over Dialga. |
| 1324 | ---- |
| 1325 | * AdaptationalHeroism: In the games, Giratina was a SatanicArchetype who was banished for being a BloodKnight (by who is unknown, but is likely to be Arceus) and in ''Legends Arceus'' [[spoiler:it was one of the main antagonists alongside Volo, uncaring if the universe was destroyed as long as it could get revenge]]. Here, it has no animosity towards humanity or Arceus, is looking for Shaymin to open a portal from the Distortion World, and it only holds a grudge on Dialga for polluting its world with its fight with Palkia. It also [[spoiler:teams up with Dialga and Palkia to hold off Arceus as Ash and co. go back in time to fix everything]]. |
| 1326 | * AntiVillain: Type IV (In Name Only). Despite its [[FaceOfAThug villainous look]], it really has nothing against the protagonists or Shaymin. It's just extremely choleric towards Dialga and Palkia going on with their lifelong feud to the point their fighting polluted its world. |
| 1327 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: In ''Arceus and the Jewel of Life'', it recognizes Ash as one of the humans who saved it and, per Ash's pleas, lets Dialga go just as it was preparing to kill the time dragon, then [[SwiperNoSwiping gives up its grudge with it when given an explanation]]. |
| 1328 | * BigDamnHeroes: Also in ''Arceus and the Jewel of Life'', Giratina [[spoiler:teams up with Palkia to hold off Arceus and buy the heroes time as Dialga sends them back in time to set the timeline right]]. |
| 1329 | * DarkIsNotEvil: It can hold a grudge against those who damage the Distortion World, its frightening appearance leads the protagonists to believe it is evil, and Shaymin thinks it wants to eat it. Ultimately, it doesn't bear any ill will towards the protagonists, and just needed Shaymin's help. Even its conflict with Dialga and Palkia was born due to the duo's fight causing reality to start collapsing. |
| 1330 | * {{Determinator}}: [[spoiler:After Dialga is unable to continue fighting after using its powers to send Ash and co. back in time, it and Palkia manage to keep fending off Arceus for a good deal of time until Ash and his friends return, at which that point both are finally trounced.]] |
| 1331 | * DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: After Shaymin restores it to life, it just has the most pleasant smile and allows Pikachu and Piplup to run around on its head, showing that it's not evil at all. |
| 1332 | * DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:Shaymin saves it from dying for real.]] |
| 1333 | * FaceOfAThug: It's a Pokémon with a SatanicArchetype, but it's not actually villainous. It simply wants Shaymin's help. |
| 1334 | * GroundhogDayLoop: Is trapped in one by Dialga, preventing the use of its powers to leave the Distortion World, thus its plan to force Shaymin to use Seed Flare to create another portal and negate the loop. |
| 1335 | * InvoluntaryShapeshifting: It uses its snake-like Origin forme whenever in the Distortion World, and changes to its legged form outside of it. The change is automatic. |
| 1336 | * IOweYouMyLife: Was saved directly by Ash and his friends; because of this, it seems to be the Creation Trio member that’s most fond of them. |
| 1337 | * PoorCommunicationKills: If only it had told Shaymin that it didn't intend to eat it, but to get it to open a portal to the real world, a lot of drama could have been avoided. Though it maybe doesn't help that Shaymin was scared of it to death... |
| 1338 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Has red eyes, quite fitting for the franchise's [[SatanicArchetype equivalent of Satan]], and doesn't hesitate to take revenge on Dialga and Palkia (especially the former) the hard way. |
| 1339 | * {{Revenge}}: Wants to take it on both Dialga and Palkia out of anger at them polluting the Distortion World with their fight, but especially Dialga, who it tries to kill more than once and attacks it first in the 12th movie for trapping it in a never-ending loop in the Distortion World; while harsh, all of this is hardly unjustified. Luckily, Ash and Sheena talk Giratina out of it in ''Arceus and the Jewel of Life''. |
| 1340 | * SwiperNoSwiping: Played with since it's not actually villainous, but once it starts getting ready to kill Dialga, it recognizes Ash and Pikachu after they plea to it to stop. After briefly reminiscing about them, it stops and lets Dialga go. This allows Sheena to explain the situation to it, allowing Giratina to finally drop its grudge with Dialga and Palkia and even pulling a full HeelFaceTurn. |

| 1361 | The descendent of Damos. She shares his power of connecting with a Pokémon's heart. |
| 1362 | ---- |
| 1363 | * TheEmpath: She has the ability to commune with Pokémon's hearts, which she uses to temporarily stop the Creation Trio feud. She got it from her ancestors. |
| 1364 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Has this for a short moment after realizing her ancestor wasn't the one who angered Arceus, and had unwittingly given Marcus the idea to do so. |
| 1365 | * SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: Is given the chance to go back in time to fix the events that led to her town's destruction. |

| 1382 | * DisneyVillainDeath: An interesting variation in that he ''isn't'' a villain, but ''because'' of how he originally died he was believed to be one for millennia. When he survives due to changing the timeline, he's rightfully regarded as the noble man he was. |
| 1383 | * TheEmpath: He has the ability to commune with the hearts of Pokémon. |
| 1384 | * HeroWithBadPublicity: The original events of the past make it appear that he was the one who betrayed Arceus's trust. |
| 1385 | * HumbleHero: He's seen tilling the fields of Michina during the credits. Even during the movie, from what we see he's even more humble than ''[[TheHero Ash]]''. |
| 1386 | * PalsWithJesus: Or better said, with ''GOD''. |
| 1387 | * PosthumousCharacter: In the present day, though he's left an inscription for his "children of the future" to find when they return to their time. |

| 1393 | Damos' right hand man, who betrays him to make sure Arceus never gets the Jewel of Life back. |
| 1394 | ---- |
| 1395 | * BigBad: [[spoiler:He was the one who conspired to destroy Arceus to keep the Jewel of Life for his town, and to frame Damos (and later Sheena) for it.]] |
| 1396 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Almost manages to drown Arceus in silver water. |
| 1397 | * DisneyVillainDeath: In the original timeline. [[spoiler:He looks to have suffered one in the new timeline (being crushed by rubble), but is revealed to have survived in the end-credits sequence.]] |
| 1398 | * DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:In the manga, he sets in motion his own death when his plan is thwarted.]] |
| 1399 | * EvilRedhead: Has red hair, and wants to destroy Arceus. |
| 1400 | * AGodAmI: His motivation in the manga is to kill Arceus and become the supreme being himself. |
| 1401 | * GreaterScopeVillain: Marcus' actions in this movie are the reason why the previous two movies' events happened, due to Arceus' dimensional influence clashing Dialga and Palkia's dimensions together in ''Darkrai'', which later caused the fight between Dialga and Giratina in ''Sky Warrior''. |
| 1402 | * ObviouslyEvil: The guy makes [[{{WesternAnimation/Aladdin}} Jafar]] look ''subtle'' in comparison with his red color scheme, suspicious nature and eagerness to have his Pokémon immediately attack outsiders. |
| 1403 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: He firmly believes that Michina will die once the Jewel of Life is returned to Arceus, and so takes measures to ensure this won't happen. Subverted in the manga adaptation, where he's a lot less sympathetic. |

| 1411 | ---- |
| 1412 | * AdaptationalBadass: Arceus in the games, even with his plates, is still a Pokémon that can be defeated by a single non-legendary mon under the right conditions and his Multitype Ability merely lets him change to one type at a time. Here, Multitype is made even stronger, allowing him to outright NoSell every attack thrown at him by anyone provided he has the right plate. Even without his plates, he can survive a mass Thunderbolt attack from hundreds of Pokémon and easily decimate his opposition. Furthermore, in the games all other members of the Creation Trio can defeat it even on their own, here they all get destroyed fighting him and just barely hold him back. Though [[JustifiedTrope you wouldn't expect anything less]] from the {{God}} of all Pokémon, would you? |
| 1413 | * AdaptationalJerkass: A justified trope. It holds a huge grudge towards humanity after its human friend Damos seemingly betrays him, and holds on to it long after Almos became uninhabitable. In the games, Arceus is very cordial, and in its own game, it personally chose the human player to capture Hisuian Pokémon, and joins their side after being bested in battle. |
| 1414 | * BigGood: In the 4-part ONA ''Arceus, the One Called God'' (to promote ''VideoGame/PokemonLegendsArceus''), it responds to Ash and his friends' request for aid in stopping the remnants of Team Galactic from ripping the space-time wormhole to rescue Cyrus. |
| 1415 | * EveryoneHasStandards: It's a heroic force that helps those in actual need, ''not'' something who will just do it because they're asking for it. Case in point, it shows zero sympathy for the remains of Team Galactic to rescue Cyrus, given how they used Heatran, who almost died after absorbing the Fire Plate and ripping a hole in space-time, and Arceus completely ignores them as it leaves. |
| 1416 | * HeroAntagonist: Its grievances with humanity aren't unjustified even thousands of years later -- it was almost murdered by people it had ''saved'' with no benefit to itself save the satisfaction of doing good! |
| 1417 | * HeroicSacrifice: Almost pulled one to save Alamo from a meteorite strike. He was left weakened enough that Damos had to bring his plates to him to save his life. |
| 1418 | * IOweYouMyLife: Why it repaid Damos initially, though it appears Arceus was by nature sympathetic to those in need. |
| 1419 | * NonElemental: Its default form is Normal-type, but can change type at will with its ability, Multitype, to absorb any elemental attacks. |
| 1420 | * PhysicalGod: As the unofficially stated God of the Pokémon World, Arceus stands leagues above every other creature in its world. Even the already godly Creation Trio pales next to it. |
| 1421 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: {{Double subver|sion}}ted. Its eyes are usually green with red pupils, which start to glow when it becomes angry, but it's hardly an evil Pokémon. Though after most of the events of this movie have beaten it down, there is no visible green left. |
| 1422 | * RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Not unjustified, as it believed that its trusted friend had betrayed it by withholding the Jewel Of Life -- which Arceus ''needs'' to survive. |
| 1423 | * SuddenlyVoiced: {{Inverted|Trope}} -- after a full movie where it talks, in the special ''Arceus, the One Called God'', it goes the entire time without uttering a single word. |
| 1424 | * TalkingAnimal: Unlike most Pokémon, it uses full dialogue with the human characters, which also contrasts with the Creation Trio who communicate in roars and grunts. |
| 1425 | * WorldsStrongestMan: The strongest Pokemon in the anime's continuity bar none, it goes as far as him being able to fight and defeat beings who threatened the time and space continuum without issue. |

| 1435 | ---- |
| 1436 | * AmbitionIsEvil: Mainly wanted the ability to see in the future in order to be wealthy, and uses this as his reason to preserve it. |
| 1437 | * BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: His first scene has him forcibly taking Zorua from Zoroark while restraining her to blackmail her into submission, establishing him as a definite bad guy. He also has no qualms about inflicting physical harm on Pokémon to achieve his own goals, which further reinforces how heinously selfish he is. |
| 1438 | * BigBad: The main catalyst of the movie's conflicts, and a particularly heinous one at that, too. |
| 1439 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: Pretends to be a respectable businessman to the public. He's actually a greedy, murderous, self-entitled sociopath. |
| 1440 | * BrightIsNotGood: Wears white clothing and has gold eyes, and is a thoroughly evil individual. |
| 1441 | * CorruptCorporateExecutive: The CEO of a {{Megacorp}} who got his fortune through ruining countless Pokémon lives and destroying entire habitats. |
| 1442 | * {{Expy}}: Like the Iron-Masked Marauder, Grings Kodai is an utterly despicable villain out to obtain Celebi using incredibly painful electric technology. Also like Iron Mask, he has a hand in [[spoiler:nearly killing a Pokémon]]. Other details and traits seem to have been split with his henchman, Goon. |
| 1443 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Grings Kodai's entire motivations revolve around his own fame and fortune, and he's willing to do literally anything, no matter how terrible, just to get his way. |
| 1444 | * KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:In the manga adaptation. Crosses over with DisneyVillainDeath, as he falls from the same height as in the movie but dies from it instead of receiving a Humiliation Conga.]] |
| 1445 | * ManipulativeBastard: Blackmailed Zoroark into terrorizing the City by kidnapping her Zorua, then ordered Rowena to doctor the footage to make it as if Zoroark was controlling his legendary beasts (holograms) to pin the blame on her, distracting the crowd so he can go after the time ripple. |
| 1446 | * MeaningfulName: His Japanese name, and by extension his English one, comes from the Japanese word for "megalomaniac". |
| 1447 | * ObviouslyEvil: Inverted. His appearance is a little bizarre but not ''overly'' suspicious by [[AnimeHair his own world's standards]]; however, to the audience, it fittingly invokes BrightIsNotGood with his white suit and gold eyes, because very rarely does a character with both that and KaleidoscopeHair turn out to be a saint. |
| 1448 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: 20 years before the events of the movie, he caused all the plant life in Crown City to die by touching the Time Ripple. [[ItsAllAboutMe He did not care about this in the slightest.]] |
| 1449 | * {{Sadist}}: Kodai enjoys trying to kill and restrain Pokémon for his own ends. |
| 1450 | * SevenDeadlySins: Commits all of them in the span of one movie: |
| 1451 | ** Attempts to claim the Time Ripple for himself when it belonged to Celebi. (Gluttony and Greed) |
| 1452 | ** Desires the power to see the future through unscrupulous means. (Lust) |
| 1453 | ** Drains Celebi's only energy source. (Envy) |
| 1454 | ** Electrocutes Zoroark to near-death for tricking him. (Wrath) |
| 1455 | ** Doesn't care about anyone but himself. (Pride) |
| 1456 | ** Has his minions do most of the work for him. (Sloth) |
| 1457 | * TheSociopath: If his name (see MeaningfulName) hasn't told you of anything, this guy does heinously destructive acts on a whim and enjoys seeing Zorua suffer for his sake. |
| 1458 | * SoulPower: His only known Pokémon are a Mismagius and a Shuppet. |
| 1459 | * SupernaturalGoldEyes: Interestingly, he had them even ''before'' he absorbed the power of the Time Ripple. |
| 1460 | * VillainWithGoodPublicity: Although that publicity goes straight out the window once everyone learns of the events surrounding him. |
| 1461 | * WouldHurtAChild: He uses Zorua as a [[HumanShield Pokémon Shield]] to stop his mother Zoroark from attacking him, then electrocutes Zorua with his extendable claw to prove his point. |

Her adoptive son needs her, and she's going to get him back, no matter what. |
| 1529 | * AdaptationalBadass: Zoroark is a GlassCannon in the games. While this one retains the "cannon" part, she completely lacks the "glass", tanking absurd amounts of punishment without stopping. Her MasterOfIllusion powers absolutely ''dwarf'' the simple 'disguise itself' ones its game counterpart has, being city wide in potential scope and even being able to fool senses other than sight. |
| 1530 | * CastingAShadow: A full Dark-type, and knows Night Daze, Dark Pulse and Night Slash. |
| 1531 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Though she's a Dark-type Pokémon, and Zoroark are known in-game for being highly protective of their groups, this Zoroark has no malicious intent. All she want is to protect her son. |
| 1532 | * {{Determinator}}: Nothing will stop her from rescuing her son. Not a prison with electrified walls, not the Legendary beasts, not Grings Kodai himself. '''Nothing.''' |
| 1533 | * DisneyDeath: Seemingly dies at the movie's climax from being electrocuted by Kodai after exhausting herself to protect her son, but thanks to Celebi's power, she recovers. |
| 1534 | * EarlyBirdCameo: One of the first Gen V Pokémon to appear in the movies. |
| 1535 | * EarnYourHappyEnding: After being abducted, imprisoned, tortured, coerced into working for a psychopathic human in exchange for her son's life, forced to fight three Legendary Pokémon at once and ''straight-out electrocuted to death'', she is revived by Celebi, exacts her revenge against her human arch-nemesis and is finally able to return home with her baby.

| 1637 | ''Greater than three is four.''[[labelnote:*]]Said by Keldeo at the end of the movie, after being inducted as an official Sword of Justice[[/labelnote]]\ |

| 1641 | * BareFistedMonk: All of them are part Fighting-type. |
| 1642 | * {{BFS}}: Sacred Sword and Secret Sword give them one [[EnergyWeapon made of energy]] on top of their heads. Keldeo's Secret Sword is even about as long as he is! |

| 1653 | A Sword of Justice in training, who is very eager to fight Kyurem at first. The main focus Pokémon of the movie. |
| 1654 | ---- |
| 1655 | * ArrogantKungFuGuy: It's not that he wasn't strong already (it's a Mythical Pokémon trained by Legendary Pokémon, after all), but he certainly wasn't as experienced in battle as [[OldMaster his mentors]]. This bites him back ''very'' hard once it challenges Kyurem to a battle -- so, an {{Olympus Mon|s}} that's far grander in power, [[BloodKnight eager to battle]] and stated to be the strongest Dragon-type in the world. |
| 1656 | * BadassAdorable: Pint-sized and cute, like Mew and its counterparts in the movie, and much like them, he can put up a fairly tough fight (though unlike them, he doesn't have a cutesy-sounding voice). |
| 1657 | * BullyingADragon: Literally. He picked he wrong fight with the Dragon-type [[BloodKnight Kyurem]], [[ArrogantKungFuGuy before he was ready]], and [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere escaped when he was about to lose]]. [[BerserkButton This got to Kyurem.]] |
| 1658 | * CurbStompCushion: Okay yes, he ''did'' get his rear handed out by Kyurem ''twice'', but in his second fight [[spoiler:he managed to score a few good hits, even before it learns Secret Sword]]. |
| 1659 | * EleventhHourSuperpower: [[spoiler:He gains his Resolute Forme just in time for his rematch with Kyurem, and learns Secret Sword in the midst of it.]] |
| 1660 | * HeroicBSOD: Spends most of the movie in one after his defeat, though he visibly shows this before the rematch. |
| 1661 | * HotBlooded: Initially was very much this. His experiences allow him to break out of this, though, especially once it loses to Kyurem. |
| 1662 | * InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: Both of his battles were against Kyurem while alone. |
| 1663 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: [[spoiler:Having helped his friends and stood up to Kyurem while Resolute, he finally yields in his rematch once the Boundary Pokémon overpowers it nevertheless.]] |
| 1664 | * MakingASplash: Part Water-type, and knows Hydro Pump. |
| 1665 | * MesACrowd: Knows Double Team and gets good mileage off of it. |

| 1676 | * ExtraOreDinary: Part Steel-type, and knows [[LightEmUp Flash Cannon]]. |
| 1677 | * TheLeader: The ''de facto'' leader of the Swords of Justice, and a type II (Levelheaded). Stoic, detemined, highly experienced and still wants to see Keldeo grow stronger. |
| 1678 | * LightEmUp: Knows Flash Cannon. |
| 1679 | * TheMentor: Easily displays the most qualities of this archetype, being cool-headed and stern, but ultimately trying to prepare Keldeo for its battles. |
| 1680 | * PerpetualFrowner: It doesn't smile a single time in the movie until the very end. |
| 1681 | * SternTeacher: Cobalion is the most serious of its group, but genuinely wants to see Keldeo get stronger. |

| 1691 | ---- |
| 1692 | * AdaptationDeviation: Despite ''Literature/TheThreeMusketeers'' being the basis for the Swords of Justice (Virizion is based on Aramis, who's romantic but very much male), Virizion is shown to have much more effeminate traits and is voiced by a woman in most dubs. |
| 1693 | * ContraltoOfStrength: Most of the dubs give Virizion a low, feminine voice. |
| 1694 | * GreenThumb: Part Grass-type, and knows Magical Leaf. |
| 1695 | * TeamMom: Serves as this to the Swords of Justice. In particular, Virizion is the most concerned over Keldeo's well-being. |

| 1706 | * BigFun: It's the bulkiest member of the Swords of Justice, and is also the most jovial. |
| 1707 | * TheBigGuy: Big and muscular when compared to the other Swords of Justice. It also knows Hyper Beam, a move usually associated for its huge power; this also makes it the only one of the original trio to know a third move. |
| 1708 | * DishingOutDirt: Part Rock-type, and knows Stone Edge. |
| 1709 | * EnergyWeapon: Knows Hyper Beam. It's fired from [[BreathWeapon its mouth]]. |
| 1710 | * MadeOfIron: During the intro in Keldeo's TrainingMontage, it gets flung into a huge boulder that then falls on top of it. It comes out unharmed and easily slices it in two with Sacred Sword. |
| 1711 | * NiceGuy: Terrakion shares the closest bond with Keldeo, and notably enjoys its time with the colt. |

| 1720 | |
| 1721 | The film's main antagonist. Lives in solitude on its own lair, the Full Court. Keldeo picks a fight with it when it wasn't ready yet, and Kyurem obliges... but once Keldeo escapes, it decides to chase the colt until they can finish what they started. |
| 1722 | ---- |
| 1723 | * AdaptationalBadass: Kyurem is outright stated by Iris to be the strongest Dragon-type in the world and it shows; it is no slouch in a fight, and most notably can switch between both its alternate forms at will just by "borrowing" Reshiram and Zekrom's power, when elsewhere in the franchise it needs to fuse with either Reshiram or Zekrom to do so. |
| 1724 | * AmbiguousSituation: According to Keldeo, one becomes a Sword of Justice if you manage to win a battle against Kyurem, though whether he was playing badass or being sincere is never explained. |
| 1725 | * AntiVillain: A type IV (In-Name Only), and partly the reason why it's extremely dangerous. Keldeo made the terrible mistake of [[BloodKnight challenging it to a fight]], [[WellTrainedButInexperienced before its training was complete]], so after it almost loses the battle and runs away, Kyurem chases it to finish what it so wished and stops anyone from interfering. Really, all Kyurem wants is for their fight to be done for, and it still possesses a sense of honor beneath the icy exterior. |
| 1726 | * TheBadGuyWins: Downplayed since it's not really evil, but [[spoiler:on its second fight against Keldeo, even after the latter [[EleventhHourSuperpower finally becomes Resolute and learns Secret Sword]], Kyurem still wipes the floor with it. Though it does show the Keldeo its respect for protecting those it was close to]]. |
| 1727 | * BerserkButton: |
| 1728 | ** If you pass through Kyurem's arc to fight it, you better see the battle to the end and ''not'' run away. It '''''WILL''''' hunt you down! Keldeo learned this one the hard way. |
| 1729 | ** Anyone who interferes with a battle also notably ticks it off. After the Swords of Justice annoy it enough when they argue whether or not to call off the battle, Kyurem [[TalkToTheFist disposes of them cold and quickly]]. |
| 1730 | ** It's also not a fan of humans entering its lair. When Ash tries to free the imprisoned Swords of Justice, Kyurem [[WouldHurtAChild tries to attack him]]. |
| 1731 | * BigBad: The main antagonist, except it's less evil and more angry that Keldeo ran away and didn't finish the fight. |
| 1732 | * BloodKnight: It will accept any invitation to a fight and constantly pressure you to show it your full power during it. Just [[BerserkButton don't run away]]. |
| 1733 | * BreathWeapon: Knows Dragon Pulse and Ice Beam, expelling both from its mouth. |
| 1734 | * CastingAShadow: Its normal form knows Shadow Claw. |
| 1735 | * ColdHam: No {{pun}} intended -- it's more quiet than most hams, but its voice makes any speaking have impact. Then there is the way it accepts invitations to a fight; set up an icy combat ring with an arc for the challenger to pass through as formality. |
| 1736 | * CurbStompBattle: Twice, no less. It defeats Keldeo the first time with a Shadow Claw that breaks its horn, then a second time when the little colt faces it again [[spoiler:even after it [[EleventhHourSuperpower entered its Resolute Form and learned Secret Sword]]]]. |
| 1737 | * EverybodyKnewAlready: The first time [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Keldeo]] faces Kyurem, it claims to be a Sword of Justice. The second time, the Colt Pokémon reveals that it lied to Kyurem so they could face off in battle, to which Kyurem responded that it knew Keldeo lied from the beginning. |
| 1738 | * FlunkyBoss: A pack of Cryogonal is always following it. |
| 1739 | * AnIcePerson: Of course, it's part Ice-type after all. It knows Ice Beam, and can also use its {{Secret Art}}s, Freeze Shock and Ice Burn, as Black and White Kyurem respectively. |
| 1740 | * ImplacableMan: ''Nothing'' can slow this guy down. |
| 1741 | * InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: A ''staunch'' believer in this whenever one fights it. And [[BerserkButton those who interfere in the battle]] meet their cold demise the hard way. |
| 1742 | * KarmaHoudini: {{Downplayed|Trope}} and {{double subver|sion}}ted. The damages it causes whilist chasing after Keldeo are never addressed and it faces no consequences for it. Additionally, [[spoiler:when Full Court, its home, collapses from its harsh battle against Keldeo, it simply freezes the collapsing lair to create a castle of ice to live in, returning to its lair without a single word to utter]]. |
| 1743 | * NobleDemon: Despite winning the battle against Keldeo twice, [[spoiler:it spares the colt's life the second time after it chose to help its friends and put its life before theirs before continuing the fight, thus Keldeo earning Kyurem's respect and showing its honor]]. |
| 1744 | * OrcusOnHisThrone: It's the strongest Dragon-type in the world, but it prefers to live in solitude at Full Court. |
| 1745 | * TalkingAnimal: Like the others, it speaks through telepathy. |
| 1746 | * TalkToTheFist: After the Swords of Justice argue on whether or not they should call the battle with Keldeo and Kyurem out, the latter responds by freezing the Swords of Justice with an Ice Burn. |
| 1747 | * VoluntaryShapeshifting: Can take the Black Kyurem and White Kyurem forms at will. |
| 1748 | * WorldsStrongestMan: Iris specifically stated Kyurem is the strongest Dragon-type in the world. She's not bluffing; Kyurem proves it by summoning the powers of Reshiram and Zekrom to assist it in battle. |
| 1749 | * WorthyOpponent: [[spoiler:At the end of the movie, it sees Keldeo as this despite defeating it, respecting the colt's courage.]] |
| 1750 | * WouldHurtAChild: One of its nastiest qualities. When Ash tries to help the Swords of Justice and refuses to leave, Kyurem attacks him. |

| 1759 | ---- |
| 1760 | * CompositeCharacter: Is essentially a feminine cross between Movie 1 Mewtwo (same species, poses similarly) and Movie 8 Lucario (starts with a distrust of humans, uses Lucario's signature move Aura Sphere). |
| 1761 | * DistaffCounterpart: To the original Mewtwo, at least in terms of voice, which acts as a signifier that it's a completely separate character. Also a GoodCounterpart since it's more of a straightforward hero rather than a villain turned AntiHero. |
| 1762 | * EnergyBall: Uses Aura Sphere. |
| 1763 | * {{Expy}}: Same Legendary Pokémon species as the original, and also uses similar battle poses. She also takes some of Movie 8 Lucario's personality traits (such as his distrust of humans) and his signature move, Aura Sphere. |
| 1764 | * MisanthropeSupreme: Downplayed - it doesn't like humans and gets on better with other Pokémon, but it doesn't wish to destroy them like its predecessor. However, it starts caring about them when it and the Red Genesect fight in a populated area when not long ago it still had those feelings. |
| 1765 | * PutOnABus: It never reappeared after its debut movie, being replaced by the original Mewtwo that it was meant to sub for in the first place. |
| 1766 | * SuperMode: Its alternate form, Mega Mewtwo Y. |
| 1767 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: While it isn't the first movie's Mewtwo, its origins are virtually identical to that of the first one save for lacking any connection to Team Rocket. This one was actually created to get around the copyright issues associated with Movie 1's Mewtwo. |
| 1768 | * TalkingAnimal: Once again through Telepathy. |
| 1769 | * WritingAroundTrademarks: It was created as an {{expy}} of Movie 1's Mewtwo with a similar backstory and vaguely similar personality traits, largely to get around the complications caused by Takeshi Shudo's estate and their rights to the original character. |

| 1860 | |
| 1861 | The Jewel Pokémon. The Steels seek to awaken her so they can use her powers to create diamonds. |
| 1862 | ---- |
| 1863 | * GemstoneAssault: She can create diamonds, but since she hasn't mastered her powers, they soon disappear. [[spoiler:After getting assistance from Xerneas, the diamonds no longer disappear.]] Additionally, she knows Diamond Storm. |
| 1864 | * OurFairiesAreDifferent: A Rock/Fairy type. |
| 1865 | * PrincessClassic: She's the princess of the Diamond Domain and her personality is extremely polite, kind and naive. |
| 1866 | * ShelteredAristocrat: She spent most of her life in the Diamond Domain and as a result is quite unfamiliar with the outside world. |
| 1867 | * Telepathy: Like most other Legendary/Mythical Pokémon, this is how she communicates with others. |

| 1875 | * BigGood: The only one who can stop Yveltal's rampage. |
| 1876 | * BlueIsHeroic: It has a blue color scheme and is one of the good guys. |
| 1877 | * ExoticEyeDesigns: Xerneas' pupils are, fittingly, shaped like the letter X. |
| 1878 | * TheMarvelousDeer: Its a Legendary Fairy-type that looks like a deer. |
| 1879 | * OurFairiesAreDifferent: Fairy-type. |
| 1880 | * XMakesAnythingCool: A recurring motif for Xerneas — not only is there an "X" in the name, its design incorporates numerous saltires as well. |

| 1886 | The Destruction Pokémon. Long ago, it caused the "Great Destruction" and sapped the life energy out of all living beings. Now slumbering as a cocoon, it waits until it can be awakened again. |
| 1887 | ---- |
| 1888 | * AdaptationalVillainy: In the games, Yveltal is a case of DarkIsNotEvil, and its destruction is part of its life cycle as opposed to intentional malice, implied to be a necessary counterpoint to Xerneas' powers of creation. In the movie it is stated to serve the same role (having destroyed a forest so that it could regrow to be even more vibrant), however, due to having been awoken in a state of rage it is much more wild and drains the life of others deliberately until it calms down. It is seen in the credits flying about peacefully. |
| 1889 | * CombatPragmatist: In keeping with the "dirty tactics" aspect of its Dark type, Yveltal [[spoiler: attacks the Steels' airship in order to get to the Steels themselves]]. |
| 1890 | * DarkIsEvil: A Dark-type Pokémon, and a very savage and destructive one at that when enraged. |
| 1891 | * [[spoiler:DarkIsNotEvil: After Xerneas calmed it down, it left peacefully so that the forest could regrow once again and become even more vibrant than it was before.]] |
| 1892 | * GreaterScopeVillain: While it's an animalistic force of destruction and not a malevolent schemer, it's the biggest threat in the movie. |

| 1922 | ---- |
| 1923 | * BreathWeapon: While Hoopa itself does not have one, all of the Pokémon it summons during the course of the movie (except the herd of Pikachu, Steelix, the Kyogre from the past and Regigigas) have at least one BreathWeapon in their arsenal of moves (those Pokémon being Dragonite, Lugia, Latias, Latios, the Kyogre, from the events of the movie, two different Groudon (one from Hoopa's past and one during the events of the movie), Rayquaza, Hippopotas, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem.) |

| 1926 | * LetsYouAndHimFight: Hoopa Confined summons Lugia to help it fight its shadow, and it quickly escalates from there. |

| 1928 | * ThePrankster: Loves playing pranks on people and Pokémon with its rings. |
| 1929 | * TalkingAnimal: Unlike most of the other Legendary/Mythical Pokémon that are the stars of the movies, Hoopa is the first (and currently only) one that speaks, similar to [[Characters/PokemonTheSeriesTeamRocketTrio Meowth]]. |
| 1930 | * ThinkingUpPortals: Uses its rings to create portals, and it doesn't seem to have a limit of where, or what can be summoned as long as Hoopa wills it. |
| 1931 | * ThirdPersonPerson: Tends to talk like this, especially when apologizing for something. |
| 1932 | --> "Hoopa sorry." |
