3 | How does he do this? After an attempt to take down Robotnik's latest plan all by himself goes awry, Tails ends up getting inadvertently transported into the Franchise/DragonBall universe by an interdimensional portal. There, he meets up with Goku, and together they undergo a crapload of TrainingFromHell. The two-tailed fox ends up taking [[TookALevelInBadAss several levels in badass]] and becomes significantly more powerful and intelligent. As his adventure goes on from there, however, he realizes he has much more to learn beyond just kicking ass and taking names. |

9 | !!Tropes included in ''Training Tails'' include: |
10 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: One of the most defining traits of this depiction of Tails, such as being able to calculate trajectories on the fly before deciding on how to throw objects. |
11 | * BadassBookworm: Tails, very much so after his training under Master Roshi. |
12 | * ColdBloodedTorture: In Chapter 23, during a fight with Tien Shin Han, Tails gets overwhelmed, and ends up [[spoiler: getting his tails forcibly ''ripped off'' his butt. Only by taking a magical Senzu Bean given to him by Goku earlier is he able to regenerate them instantly and get back up.]] |
13 | * {{Crossover}} |
14 | * CurbStompBattle: Most of the Red Ribbon Army stand pretty much zero chance against Tails or Goku in a fight, though it does get gradually harder for the duo. |
15 | * GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: Tails' goggles are one of the most useful gadgets he has, having a whole host of features such as nightvision, blocking out the moon (for the pair given to Goku to prevent his transformation into a Great Ape), detecting enemies, detecting dragon balls, etc. |
16 | * HardWorkMontage: While building the Sea Fox, set to the ''Series/{{MacGyver|1985}}'' theme song no less. |
17 | * HowWeGotHere: The second chapter already shows Tails returning to Mobius after completing his training, and the entire fic from there shows everything he had gone through and experienced within six years. |
18 | * IdiotHero: Goku, much like in the canon. |
19 | * TailSlap: The Tailspin attack is an up to eleven version of this. |
20 | * TrainingMontage: Chapter 5. |
21 | * {{Technobabble}}: Tails being a technical genius and the author being a big sci-fi fan and actual engineer by profession, this comes from the fox a lot. |
22 | * ThouShaltNotKill: Tails tries to hold onto this principle as hard as he can, but comes to realize it's really not that easy in the Franchise/DragonBall world after encountering the Red Ribbon Army. [[spoiler: Notably, it actually led to Tien getting an advantage over him in the fight mentioned above, as Tails did not use lethal force when he could have.]] |
