History DarthWiki / PokemonPeaceSquad

* AssistCharacter: Through DS-transmitted data, V.E.R.I.C.A.S. appears in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' as an Assist Trophy, where she'll follow the summoner and give out spoken advice about one of the other opponents. She makes a return in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'', where she assumes her SpaceshipGirl avatar [[spoiler: from ''Endless Boundaries'']] and actually [[FrozenInTime freezes the opponent]] she gives advice on in place with a digital shock, allowing other players to attack them.

* HardLight: Among the things that she can do is create holographic barriers to protect those she's following from enemy attacks.
* InformedAbility: If V.E.R.I.C.A.S. is said to be able to control anything in Star City, then why doesn't she stop any Star City robots gunning for you or deactivate any traps or defense measures that you come across? It's likely Team Draco stripped V.E.R.I.C.A.S. of much of her control when they came and took over the city.
* LostLenore: Professor Hartache based the look of V.E.R.I.C.A.S.'s avatar off of his late wife, Yuriko.
* OverlyLongName: Her full name is Virtual Electronic Robotic Intelligence Computing Artificial System, so she's known as V.E.R.I.C.A.S. for short.

* ShoutOut: WordOfGod [[invoked]] is that she was inspired by V.I.K.I. from ''Film/IRobot'', although V.E.R.I.C.A.S. is entirely benevolent.
* SpaceshipGirl: Can also be seen as this. Fanart of V.E.R.I.C.A.S. depicts her as a cute anime girl, usually with a futuristic-looking dress and hair accessories. Such pictures tend to show her being friends with Alicia Hartache, the daughter of her creator. [[spoiler: Became AscendedFanon]][[invoked]][[spoiler: with her return in ''Endless Boundaries''.]]
* YouDontLookLikeYou: In her [[spoiler: unexpected reappearance in ''Endless Boundaries'']], V.E.R.I.C.A.S. now resembles a cute girl instead of the floating cube she initially appeared as (likely as AscendedFanon[[invoked]]). Likely justified given that she's a robotic hologram.

* YouMonster: Prof. Carolina called Giovanni ''TheDevil'' after he [[spoiler: completely annihilates the Hunter Carrier in ''[=PPS3=]'']].

!'''Tropes that apply to Pokémon Peace Squad: Trinity:'''

* ColossusClimb: [[spoiler: The fight with the Plasma Colossus boss involves you climbing you way up and around while avoiding its attacks while attempting to reach the top where Ghetsis is and bring the titan down.]]
* ContinuityNod: After clearing Episode 1, if you're playing as Ash, he brings up having [[Anime/Pokemon2000 been called the Chosen One]], [[Anime/PokemonJirachiWishMaker meeting a Pokémon that can grant wishes]], and [[Anime/PokemonGiratinaAndTheSkyWarrior exploring a strange reverse dimension]].
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: In the wake of the worldwide Pokémon disappearance, each villainous team encountered in this game has managed to capture a powerful Legendary Pokémon, which they have plans to use in their schemes. As you progress through the game, you manage to free each of them[[spoiler:, only for them to be snatched once again, this time by Team Plasma (BW) and after being freed again, by Team Rocket]].
* DiscOneFinalBoss: [[spoiler: Sorry, Ghetsis isn't the final boss in this game, due to the [[HijackedByGanon plot being hijacked]] right after defeating him.]]
* EnemyMine: Given that in Custom Team Mode you can pair any three characters together, it's possible to pair off characters that hate each other (such as Cissy and Danny) without any complications.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Even though the main focus of the story is finding out who's stealing all the world's Pokémon and putting a stop to it, as you progress through the game, [[spoiler: you discover blueprints for the Dimension Cannon inside Geotech HQ, that Giovanni is the CEO of said corporation, and that Geotech has taken the Dimensional Prism from Crystal Mazeway, meaning that something else is happening behind the scenes. Makes you wonder if something else [[HijackedByGanon is going to happen once the Pokémon thieves have been dealt with]]…]]
* HijackedByGanon: [[spoiler: After Ghetsis has been defeated, Giovanni appears (well, a hologram of him), and he proceeds to take tons of Pokémon now that he's able to move his own plan forward.]]
* KillSat: [[spoiler: The Dimension Cannon, having been constructed by the Pokémon Professors under imprisonment by Team Rocket, is a superweapon whose main purpose is to dimensionally displace whatever is blasted by it. Their plan with it is to do this the world itself!]]
* LivingShip: The Flora Dirigible that's fought after clearing Flora Skyliner appears to be a blimp styled after a tropical flower, except the flower part of the airship is actually a real one that uses [[GreenThumb spiked vines to attack]] and also open itself to [[PowerOfTheSun absorb sunlight]] to fire a large laser blast.
* MakeWayForTheNewVillains: [[spoiler: It turns out that the ones responsible for the theft of all the world's Pokémon happens to be the Team Plasma from Black & White, who happen to make their Pokémon Peace Squad debut in this entry.]]
* MeaninglessVillainVictory: [[spoiler: At the end of Episode 12, Ghetsis and Team Plasma (BW) (revealed to be the ones behind the plot) manage to capture every Pokémon in the world. However, Ghetsis's victory only lasts through episode 13 before he's defeated by the chosen characters, who were able to do so not with their Pokémon, but with the power of teamwork.]]
* MegaCorp: Geotech Industries, which is the core of Geotech Valley, is a massive futuristic corporation specializing in Pokédroids, robots that can copy and take the form of Pokémon. [[spoiler: It's discovered late in the game that Giovanni is the head of said corporation, likely [[CutLexLuthorACheck as a financial source for him]].]]
* MonumentalTheft: The main plot of the story involves a mysterious airship stealing all the world's Pokémon, with the Pokémon population decreasing more and more as the game progresses. [[spoiler: By the time you've cleared Episode 13, all the world's Pokémon have been captured by Team Plasma (BW), who were [[MakeWayForTheNewVillains never seen prior to this game]].]]
* NoGearLevel: [[spoiler: Due to Ghetsis and Team Plasma (BW) capturing all the world's Pokémon, including those of all playable characters, Episode 13]] has your characters stripped of all their Pokémon actions, limiting them to punches and homing attacks.
* NotMeThisTime: One of the suspects in the capturing of all the world's Pokémon is Giovanni and Team Rocket. [[spoiler:However, turns out they're not the culprits. But they do snatch all they can from Ghetsis afterward.]]
* OutOfFocus: The Fly and Power-type characters are this since you'll be using the Speed-type characters a lot more to clear stages, although the other two characters sill have their uses finding alternate paths and hidden items.
* ReviveKillsZombie: The Gi Specter enemies in Cave of the Gi, similar to [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII their game of origin]], can be killed by either healing moves (such as Softboiled or Heal Pulse) or picking up and throwing a Potion or similar item at them. Gi Nattak fought at the end of the stage can be hurt by the same methods.
* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''VideoGame/SonicHeroes'', and has improved the teamwork formula in several ways, from many more teams to choose from to being able to customize them and even have multiple players control each character.
* WaveMotionGun: [[spoiler: The Dimension Cannon is a piece of Star City tech that Giovanni managed to get the blueprints for and forced the Pokémon Professors to build for him, his plan to be to use to warp the world to another dimension!]]
* {{Wutai}}: Cascade Villa in Cascade Valley is a town sitting on an island on top of the largest waterfall in the area that's modeled after a Japanese village.
* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: [[spoiler: Okay, so Team Plasma and Ghetsis have been taken down and all the world's Pokémon freed. Wait just a minute, what is Giovanni doing here? And why is he taking every Legendary Pokémon?!]]

!Team Rocket

[[folder: Giovanni]]

The notorious leader of Team Rocket, [[https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/d/d0/Giovanni_BW.png Giovanni's]] ambitions revolve around, you guessed it, taking over the world (insert [[Film/StreetFighter M. Bison's]] "[[MemeticMutation OF COURSE!]]" here). In the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series, he has become far more ruthless than ever imagined and his plans have become far more insane. After having served the Squad for [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor unknown reasons]] in ''[=PPS1=]'' and serving the [[LegionOfDoom Meta Alliance]] in ''[=PPS2=]'', Giovanni quickly asserted himself as an immense threat with plans that now involve things such as remaking the world in his image, his rationale being that it would "rid (him) of all opposition and incompetence". In fact, in ''[=PPS3=]'', Giovanni had sought to ''reshape the entire multiverse'' into an empire that he would rule over as a god! In short, Team Rocket's leader has become one of the greatest threats the Pokémon Peace Squad has ever ended up facing.

[[AC:Nightmare Fuel]]

[[center:[-'''This is based on opinion. Please don't list it on a work's trope example list.'''-][==]]]

The ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series is as a whole DarkerAndEdgier that anything else in the franchise, but does that mean there's more potential for NightmareFuel? Heck yeah, there is!

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad]]

* The Hex Maniac that Aeris was using to communicate through being possessed and later killed by an evil spirit can be creepy.
* Yuriko Hartache having been killed by the very creature she was researching can send chills down someone's spine. The fact that you then encounter said creature yourself adds to this.

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad: Chaos Adventure]]

* Two words: [[IDontLikeTheSoundOfThatPlace Death Castle]]. This stage is Nightmare Fuel incarnate! First off, the castle gives off a Halloween vibe, is populated by various Ghost-type Pokémon as wells as ghosts of other kinds, and contains an immeasurable number of deathtraps, ranging from swinging axes to spiked ceilings, crushing walls, burning pits of fire, trap doors, flame-spewing vents, a huge stone hammer, and who knows what else! The fact that these are present indicates that some who tried to cross the halls of this castle may have met with a terrible end and that the ghosts and Ghost Pokémon may be the souls of those unfortunate ones. Even the Gallade-themed armor statues seen are deadly as they swing their axes at you with the intent of decapitation!
** Then you enter what appears to be Giovanni's living room, and from the giant portrait of him and his Persian, both pairs of eyes glow red as sinister laughter emits and the whole floor opens up, sending you into the dark basement below.
** Here, you notice a giant glowing door. As the glowing fades, suddenly, a [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 giant freaky ghost]] bursts out of the door and gives chase to your character! You run in panic as you attempt to evade the ghost, hitting switches to lower ectoplasm-coated gates, but King Boom Boo eventually finds its way back to you by coming out of the walls. Once you make it to a well-lighted room, the floor gives way and you end up experiencing the ''true'' horror of this stage!
** What you've seen in this stage so far is nothing compared to the grisly horrors of the castle's underground dungeon! Placed throughout the half-flooded with poison water chambers are areas containing cells holding various Ghost-type Pokémon, all of which want your flesh! As you explore the dungeon, you come across tons of torture devices from stockades to racks, iron maidens, hot pokers, guillotines, spiked paddles, and god knows what else!
*** The detail of this dungeon is very creepy. If you look closely at the guillotines, iron maidens, and spikes placed throughout the dungeon, you'll notice parts of them covered in blood! If you thought that was scary, some characters indicate that these devices were [[invoked]] [[FridgeHorror used recently]]! And since Giovanni is the one that owns this castle, this could mean that he and Team Rocket conducted acts of torture and even death in this place! Good God! Team Rocket's more depraved than we thought!
*** But that's still just the tip of the iceberg! There's enough Nightmare Fuel left in this stage to start an ice age! Everywhere you go in the dungeon, you'll find bloodstains on all surfaces, giving you a grim idea of the castle's bloody history. [[FromBadToWorse Even worse]], you may have to look around for them, but there are actually skeletons lying in various areas; some of the skeletons are even still chained to walls or in stockades!
*** But just what arcane experiments were conducted in this horrific place? Seen throughout the dungeon are vents with what appears to be ghostly flames emitting from. Get close to these and suddenly, skeletal hands cloaked in blue flames, accompanied by [[HellIsThatNoise banshee-like screams]], reach out and [[JumpScare grab your character almost instantly]]!
*** What about the poison water flooding the lower floors of the dungeon? Half of the cells, torture devices, and stockades are found on these floors, and there's even what appear to be dunking devices near the poison water! Another form of torture/death conducted here might have been poisoning or drowning poor souls in the poison water!
*** Now we get to the next part of our hellish tour of Death Castle. Once the poison water's been drained from the area, giant Dusknoir appear and start patrolling the dungeon. They wear tattered capes and carry huge axe-like scythes, which even appear to have blood on their tips. These Dusknoir emit eerie roars and if one spots you, it'll come at you and attempt to cleave you with its scythe! The worst part is if this happens, you're instantly dead and what sounds like a bloodcurdling scream is heard! And if you manage to defeat one, another will appear and continue the hunt for you!
*** Now for the final part. After entering the hidden passage, a giant Ariados comes down and makes its way along the rails, which happen to be its threads, and screams all the way down! It's not as scary as some of the other things found in this stage, but the thought of a giant spider coming to eat you can send chills down your spine!
** There is also the music for the stage once you enter the dungeon! To make the place even scarier, the background music becomes faded and creepy sounds and even moaning and screams are added in!
** Another thing is playing this stage in Expert Mode! In place of the poison water in the stage is ''blood''! I know that the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games are supposed to be rated T, but this is pushing even that!
** There is also the matter of a certain Special Mission for this stage, the one where you have to rescue the Sinnoh Elite Four, Frontier Brains, and Cynthia from the dungeon! Given the circumstances of what's happened here, it wouldn't be surprising if they were going to be tortured and/or killed if you didn't rescue them!
* Giovanni seeing Team Rocket as a master race and his plan to [[DepopulationBomb wipe out everyone else]] is eerily similar to [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Nazism]] and the [[UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust Holocaust]].
* The Crystal Cannon (the weapon at Team Rocket's iceberg base) can encase anything in crystal and the fact that it not only crystallizes the Hunter Carrier II, but that it's also implied that everyone inside has also been crystallized! If it weren't for Mewtwo undoing it all, all of J's henchmen (and any Pokémon they captured) would've been [[AndIMustScream stuck like that forever]]!

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad: Endless Boundaries]]

* The Plasma Wailord stage contains this. Although its description states that it resembles the Titanic Wailord and was constructed by the new Team Plasma (BW), as you go through the stage, visual evidence points to that the Plasma Wailord ''is'' the Titanic Wailord and that according to Shadow when you encounter him, this may be true! He believes that Team Plasma captured it and hollowed out its insides in order to turn it into a mobile base! Even worse, sounds heard in the stage indicate that said Wailord is [[invoked]] ''[[FridgeHorror still alive and in agony]]''! N would probably be appalled at this horrible misuse of a rare Pokémon!
* The Dark Minister/[[spoiler:[=MechaMew2=]]] is able to jab its hand into anyone and [[YouWillBeAssimilated assimilate]] him or her! Seeing what looks like liquid metal start to spread onto the person also references [[Film/TheMatrix Smith]] turning others into himself!
* Let's just say the scene during the [[spoiler: Last Story where Ghetsis appears and [[OneHitPolykill pierces N and Ash with a laser]]]] is quite jarring, [[spoiler: especially with Ghetsis then [[LaughingMad laughing insanely]] immediately afterwards]]!
* The scene where [[spoiler: Ghetsis brings about the [[EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt end of all multiverses]]. Seeing various universes, like the Sol Dimension and the Distortion World, vanishing from existence can be shocking to watch]]!
** [[spoiler: Seeing Blaze the Cat and Silver the Hedgehog [[RetGone dissolving from existence]] is also quite scary!]]
* The Plasma Spider boss at the end of Plasma Astral Base Area 2 is inspired by the Bosspider from ''VideoGame/MegaManX'', except with ''half of it organic''! Let's take a look. It has a constantly throbbing abdomen with tubes along its top pumping red-orange blood, a transparent underside where more blood can be seen underneath, and a partially organic head with the same blood dripping from its large mandibles! If that's not enough, its attacks involve trapping you in plasma webs, cocooning you in damaging silk, and drenching you in molten sulfur, all from a ''[[GiantSpider 5 meter long bio-robotic arachnid]]''! It'll also at times spit out a couple of smaller meta-organic spiders from its butt that will swarm you and to make things more [[{{Squick}} squick]]-inducing, when you manage to fell this abomination, ''its abdomen explodes in a burst of damaging molten acid and a bunch of the little buggers come out of its corpse''!
** There's also the matter of this boss fight's EasterEgg. If your health gets reduced to 0 HP while cocooned, before "You failed the mission" pops up, you get a [[NonStandardGameOver cutscene]] of the overgrown cyborg Ariados jumping to you, ''[[ItsAWonderfulFailure then eating your still-cocooned body]]''!
* Plasma Astral Base Area 5 is likely the closest the series gets to matching the nightmarish environment of Death Castle. First off, the entire complex is a WombLevel with walls of flesh, sinew, and intestines combined with metal, circuitry, and technology. There are giant brain stems you can climb up, brain-like spheres that float in the air, pools of sickening liquid that damages you, and even massive arteries that launch said spheres, electrical blasts, and enemies like Artificial Chaos. Other foes here include floating cells that can ensnare you, hand-like villi, and eyes with tentacles that can trap you! Controlling the base are four massive pulsating brains that you must destroy and in some areas, you can look out to see the eye-like core (which actually looks at you) and flowing columns of blood!
** But here's where things get really disturbing. After [[spoiler: [=MechaMew2=]]] is gone once and for all, you find Ghetsis in some sort of apparatus and discover that he's merged himself with the entire base! All we see is his head, which assumes that the rest of his body was ''the stage we had went through''! Quite creepy when you realize that Team Plasma's leader is now 75% Plasma Astral Base!
** On another note, one Special Mission for the level is not to touch any organic surfaces due to the fact that if you do, you'll be sucked in and consumed! And the depiction of Lance screaming while being absorbed by the base is just frightening!
* The scene after clearing the above stage where [[spoiler: Ghetsis envelops Sonic, Cloud, and Pulseman with massive tentacle-like villi that bursts out of the ground, strangling them and nearly crushing them. Thank Arceus they barely survive, but that was frightening]]!
* Now for the fight against the Plasma Core. Ghetsis transforms the core into a hulking titan held together by organic tissue and with his pulsating heart, grown to giant proportions, exposed in the middle. This happens to be the weak point, and every time you attack it, blood (which has a black tint to it) spurts out!
** And when it comes to Phase 2, the craft transforms to resemble [[VideoGame/Kirby64TheCrystalShards Zero Two]], which is in itself was NightmareFuel enough! However, Ghetsis kicks it up a notch with the craft also being composed of organic tissue and sinew, including such things connecting the wings to the craft! Where Zero Two's eye would be located is Ghetsis's heart, which once again serves as the weak point! What makes the battle even scarier is that whenever you attack said heart, Ghetsis [[BloodFromTheMouth coughs up copious amounts of blood]]!
** To add more Nightmare Fuel, the music used in Phase 2 is Ghetsis's theme from ''VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2''. In the second half of said phase, the music changes to an [[UpToEleven even more disturbing version]]!

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad: Ultra Revival]]

* [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Midgar]] is stated to be [[DoomedHometown gone]] in the game's backstory. Although what happened to it isn't stated directly, it can only be assumed that Team Rocket completely destroyed the city if not something ''[[NothingIsScarier worse]]''.
** The Aftermath DLC reveals exactly what happened to Midgar. It turns out that [[spoiler: Team Rocket developed the Quantum Bomb, a super oversized bomb that creates a gigantic Ultra Wormhole upon detonating, and it succeeded in sucking all of Midgar into one]]!
** Remember that in one of ''[=PPS1=]'''s expansions how Mandarin Island Main City has a failure condition where the city got sucked into an alternate dimension? Well, [[spoiler: that's exactly what happened to Midgar in this game, and unlike Mandarin Island Main City, ''this is Midgar's actual in-story fate after clearing Quantum Bomb'']]!
** Adding onto this, it turns out that members of the rebellion were evacuating people from Midgar when [[spoiler: the Quantum Bomb went off]], and neither they nor the city's populace made it out before [[spoiler: being sucked into an Ultra Wormhole]].
* Remember Regicolossus from ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2''? A mile-tall HumongousMecha brimming with hundreds of weapons, including the [[FantasticNuke Colossus Buster]] and a WaveMotionGun, and capable of leveling cities? [[spoiler: Well, when you finally enter the "factory", you discover Team Rocket has constructed ''dozens, maybe hundreds'' of these monstrosities! Now imagine that many robots of such a mammoth size being unleashed upon the world.]] [[note]]Which actually happens after you've cleared the Lost Desert stage.[[/note]]
** Given that people that act out against Team Rocket's regime are sent to the "factory", it implies that these people and Pokémon are the forced labor used to build these things, with many of them likely members of the rebellion that were captured by the regime.
* Prison Militex Act 2 is as the name implies, a prison. As you navigate the stage, you pass by hundreds if not thousands of empty cage-like cells, with Prof. Kikui giving a grim idea of what happened to those that were held in them. It's not until the two-thirds point where you start to find people held within the cells, and they turn out to be people from all walks of life and various ages (from children to elderly). This pretty much implies that the people held here were either sent to the factory as slave labor if not outright executed!
** Given that the Officer Jennies in Jenny Mode outside of villainous team bases work for the regime, it's likely the chosen character ends up in here to be eventually sent to the factory if not executed if they run out of time in a stage.
** It's stated the prisoner capacity for the place is somewhere around several ''million'', meaning several million innocent people were likely subject to enslavement or death.
** Given that the rebellion took down the factory before starting Episode Pack 2, is most likely the prisoners started to be straight-up executed.
* The Ultra Carrier is a supermassive aerial fortress that not only has several superlasers, but its main weapon, the Ultra Cannon, sends places targeted by it to [[EldritchLocation Ultra Space]], making it similar in function to the [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl Subspace Gunship]]. What's worse, it's implied that the ship has already done this to several cities!

[[AC:Shout Out]]

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad: Chaos Adventure]]

* The Daily Cirrus in the Aero Highway stage. It's pretty apparent what [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} that is based off of]]…
* A very obscure one, but when playing as Trixie, in the cutscene before the Shuttle Assault stage, she says that a pop idol band performed a concert on the moon. There happens to be [[Anime/WandabaStyle an anime]] where this has happened.
* The fight with Folly and Trudly at the end of Cyber Carnival is based off of the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog3 Carnival Night Zone midboss]].
* The Rocket Guardian fight is quite similar to the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Egg Genesis]] fight.
* The fight with Nanba happens to be a knockoff of the fight with N. Gin in ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot3Warped''. It even includes the [[UsefulNotes/TheMoon same location]].

[[AC:That One Level]]

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad]]

* Aqua Dome. You're only a fifth of the way through the game and are thrown a tricky water level. Here, you're having to deal with underwater tunnels and mazes filled with enemies, but on top of that, you also have to climb up skeletal structures, make you way over areas of rushing water, where falling in is fatal, ride water slides in a cavern area where once again falling is fatal, and go through a frigid glacier area with ultracold water where falling into it is [[RuleOfThree once again fatal]]! You also have to climb up a waterfall over a bottomless pit, raise the water level in a room while dealing with an increasing number of enemies, and ride a hydro jet in order to progress. On top of all that, you have to deal with large bubble enemies that shoot damaging bubbles, missiles, or lasers at you and fight two midbosses (3 if you're using Duplica). And when all that's said and done, you need to run through a crushing waterfall area before dealing with Archie, then make your way through one last area [[TimedMission with a short time limit]] while making sure you don't awaken Kyogre. Mess up at any one of these points and it's back to the beginning for you!
* Flora Cave can be considered even trickier than Aqua Dome since you're having to deal with tougher enemies as well as hazards such as vines the burst out of nowhere, turning what look like simple areas into mazes, flower platforms that snap shut periodically and damage you if they do, as well as pools of poison water that [[OneHitKill kills you instantly]]! There's one area where you make your way through treetops and if you fall, not only do you land on damaging brambles, but you have to go back and repeat the section. Then there's the killer plants, which drop down from nowhere and immediately attack you, flowers that shoot lasers that tend to be in areas where you're not looking, and giant Venus flytraps that if you don't scurry across quickly, they'll snap shut on you! If you're going for score, do not attack the female Team Flora Grunts (which don't attack), since you'll actually [[VideoGameCrueltyPunishment lose points]] if you do. There's also the matter of [[EscortMission escorting Celebi]] later on in the stage and you can't have its HP be reduced to 0 as well as an area with [[RiseToTheChallenge rising poison water]]. Finally, two (three if you're Duplica) midbosses must be taken down along the way as well as Farlie at the end, who turns out to be a difficult [[PuzzleBoss puzzle boss]]. Only then can you breathe easy.
** This stage is even worse if you're playing the Special Mission Mode or the Ultra difficulty (as well as the rerelease of this stage in ''Chaos Adventure''), since the female Grunts actually attack this time, requiring you to dispose of them as well.

[[AC:Other]]

[[folder: Continuity]]

While the Pokémon Peace Squad games are known for [[ContinuityNod making references]] to a myriad of things from the anime, no matter how minor, the earlier games also made [[ContinuitySnarl a large number of contradictions]] to various things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' for no discernible reason. The problem was, though, that these were in fact deliberately made by the [[ExecutiveMeddling person overseeing the games]] and while also present in the first game, they became especially bad come the second game. These contradict several events from the anime and sometimes border on InsaneTrollLogic and which the other person in charge of the games did not like, some of them even overriding what that person had established. The earlier ''PPS'' games have these contradictions shoehorned into the game at random points to make sure you know they're being contradicted (such as a character saying something that makes the contradiction), are sometimes brought up repeatedly, and there are even things such as [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Big-Lipped Alligator Moments]], [[BreakingTheFourthWall fourth wall-breaks]], and Special Missions whose underlying purpose is to further assert them and even go as far as to cite [[ExternalRetcon actual events from the anime as things like tabloid lies]]. In short, the meddling creator at times used the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games as [[AuthorTract a platform to assert these kinds of contradictions]] due to for whatever reason his dislike for such events or elements, regardless of how others thought of such things or any [[PlotHole Plot Holes]] and other errors they ended up creating. Making things worse, if someone (such as the other creator of the majority of the series) were to say otherwise or try to establish more accurate events in the games, the one behind these contradictions would ''further'' assert them. Example; if someone were to call him out on being wrong about something in ''Pokémon'', for instance, he would [[BelievingTheirOwnLies make the contradictions to their face]] and/or say ''they're'' wrong (which actually happened at least two times). Also, AlternateContinuity isn't a justifiable explanation here since this was before the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games experienced a ContinuityDrift as well as the fact that the person making the contradictions had them brought up in a way that basically said fans and also the franchise itself (like the core series games or the anime) are the ones wrong about such events, characters, or elements.

* ''[=PPS2=]'' does not acknowledge Dawn having caught Swinub (instead saying Brock did so), even citing her doing so to be a total lie. On the flip side, it's said that Dawn got Happiny (instead of Brock). In addition, Dawn's Buneary is a Lopunny, her Pipulp eventually became a Prinplup and an Empoleon, and she never parted ways with Ambipom.
** Ash and Brock's lineups are also unnecessarily altered in ''[=PPS2=]''. Instead of Grotle and Gible, Ash has a Tangela and Riolu (which he never did in the anime) while Brock has Turtwig, Swinub, and Gible (same situation as with Ash).
* The game doesn't acknowledge the Hearthome Collection, a competition that happened in the anime episode "Arriving in Style", with it even cited as "a non-existent competition". However, the Poké-stylists from the episode (such as Paris) are still acknowledged, but are instead referred to as Pokémon coordinators and grouped along with such.
** There was to be a Special Mission (changed to a Quest Mode Optional Mission) for Night Siege that referenced the Hearthome Collection and involved escorting Paris and Cocoa (Poké-stylists) to something called the Stardust Collection. [[invoked]] ExecutiveMeddling not only not only removed any reference of the Hearthome Collection and labeled both Paris and Cocoa as Pokémon Coordinators, but also changed the Stardust Collection to Stardust Contest.
* ''[=PPS2=]'' also rejects that Ash and co. have met Aaron of the Sinnoh Elite Four, once again having it stated that such an event never happened. In fact, this (and the above two examples) is brought up in a Special Mission involving a tabloid called K-Zone, with it being one of the examples of the lies from said tabloid in the mission.
* There is no character named Barry, but one named Pearl, who is for all intents and purposes Barry, but with a different name and team. What makes this deliberate rather than the person not being informed about Barry is that various usages of his name are used during ''[=PPS2=]'', some in the context of describing Pearl, but he is never referred to as such.
** Examples include Pearl doing something he constantly refers to as the "Barry Dance", him taking dance lessons from someone named Tim Barry, and Barry being the name of the [[WeHardlyKnewYe very first mercenary to die]] during the events of Quest Mode as well as the name of another character encountered in Quest Mode. Even worse, every reference of Barry in the Japanese version of the game is Jun (Barry's Japanese name). What seals the deal is that "Ethan" in the Rouge Kingdom Hard Mode Optional Mission refers to Barry being on the same wanted list as him and "Lyra", indicating that Barry is being depicted as a Pearl hater/imposter.
* [[{{Unperson}} Lyra does not exist]]. It's Marina wearing her ''[[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver [=HeartGold=] and [=SoulSilver=]]]'' outfit. Lyra is instead the name for a [[TakeThat Marina-hater and impostor]] in an Optional Mission in ''[=PPS2=]'''s Quest Mode. [[note]]Although to be fair, the reason for this may be Lyra's ReplacementScrappy status for replacing Marina. Even then, it doesn't make it right to say that she's Marina in a different outfit. Same goes for Ethan.[[/note]]
** The same goes for Ethan. It's "supposed" to be Jimmy in his ''[=HeartGold=] and [=SoulSilver=]'' outfit and the Hard Mode of the Optional Mission above involves Ethan as the name of a Jimmy hater and imposter.
* Jessie never won any ribbons in Sinnoh Pokémon Contests. In addition, her alternate persona of "Jesselina" seems to not exist according to the characters.
* Although it was stated in an earlier work from the staff that their characterizations and Pokémon are what they are in ''[[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Diamond and Pearl]], ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' takes further measures to contradict Cheryl and Mira's appearances in the anime, with Mira being afraid of and running from Ground-type Pokémon (which Sandshrew is) for instance.
** Cheryl, however, gets it even worse, as not only is she afraid of Bug-type Pokémon, she's ''especially'' afraid of the Burmy family (she had three Wormadam and a Burmy that became a Mothim in the anime) and will freak out and run away if she ever comes across something related to Burmy.
* Then there's the debacle in which it's '''heavily''' hinted at that Pokémon Hunter J is Jupiter of Team Galactic. In just what world is that [[InsaneTrollLogic even possible]] or '''where''' would such a rumor even originate from?! Not to mention that there was one scene in the anime that showed both Hunter J and Jupiter ''clearly as separate people''.
** This might be because the one making these contradictions had a notion that all major antagonists in ''Pokémon'' have to be linked to a villainous team (like Brody once having been part of Team Magma or Miror B. having once been a Cipher Admin). Maybe he thinks J has to be part of one, too.
* Note that most of these tend to involve things from [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh]]. Perhaps the most egregious contradiction made is Sinnoh being spelled ''Sinooh'' (two o's and opposed to two n's). And it's more than a misspelling when it's used in ''everything'' that's headed by the co-creator.
* On the topic of Brock's mother, Lola, ''[=PPS2=]'' states that she's Brock's ''step''mom and to make things worse, Brock's siblings hate her.
* There's also the idea of there being a character named Eugene (which was actually an egregious alternate [[DubNameChange dub name change]] for Eusine). The other creator tried to fix this in ''[=PPS1=]'''s expansions by saying Eugene was just a Eusine double, but in ''[=PPS2=]'', [[invoked]] [[ExecutiveMeddling meddling]] went as far as to make Eugene a separate playable character.
* We also have the deal with [[GenderBlenderName Tabitha]] of Team Magma, who for a stupid reason is stated to be a female when he's clearly shown to be male. While not in the ''PPS'' series itself, an earlier work headed by the series' co-creator had Tabitha being a guy be labeled as a paparazzi rumor. Tabitha was even given TheOtherDarrin treatment by being given a female voice just to drive it in. (It's stated that Tabitha was given the "incorrect" voice in the anime.)
** WordOfGod [[invoked]] admits that he kept this VA-change going due to a combination of consistency and the fear that the co-creator would just further assert Tabitha being a female if he tried to say otherwise.
* Similarly, the earlier ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games (and other projects headed by the staff) keep asserting that Tate & Liza are both girls, even though Tate is supposed to be a boy. [[TheOtherDarrin Tate's VA was even changed to Liza's but with a slightly higher pitch.]] [[invoked]]
** To show how vehement the other creator was about Tate being a girl, one time, he was asserting that Tate is a girl, only for someone to tell him that the anime showed Tate to be a boy. The creator's response is that it was a ''[[InsaneTrollLogic paint edit]]'' and that Tate is a girl. Also, DS-transmitted data containing episodes of the anime involving the various characters in the game (like Gym Leaders) released as promotional material for the first ''PPS'' game deliberately [[MissingEpisode excluded the two Tate & Liza episodes]], due to "[[BlatantLies falsely depicting Tate as a boy]]", instead replacing them with the completely unrelated Lugia trilogy of episodes from the Whirl Islands arc.
* Even characters originating from projects related to the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games can have this happen. The character of Milane, for instance, is constantly referred to as a single mother, even though the creator designed her to be a {{Fanservice}} sex symbol, not a mother. [[note]]This might have originated from a comment the creator had once said about Electra being a single mother (which he threw out not long after saying). The co-creator decided to apply this to Milane, and is known to make references to that in anything that he oversees.[[/note]]
* Not even elements from the first ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' game are safe from this. Take Attack Vehicles, hover vehicles that were featured in the first game, for instance. Although in the second game they're stylized helicopters, that same game also explicitly states that they were that in the first game, too.
* Another such matter that was subject to this was a cameo of [[Anime/SonicX Chris Thorndyke]] in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 1'' that was actually [[OrwellianRetcon removed from the game]] in a patch in the Difficulty Pack DLC. In addition, the Ultra Difficulty mode added a line from Sonic in Metal Rapids where after hearing the name answers with "Who is Chris Thorndyke?" and a set or trivia questions asks who was the character seen in a laptop screen with "Chris Thorndyke" as one of the choices, but the wrong answer (the right answer is "[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork Lan Hikari]]", who replaced Chris in the cameo). Further solidifying this is in an Optional Mission in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'''s Quest Mode, Lan (who is the focus of this mission) [[BreakingTheFourthWall breaks the fourth wall]] to address that he was the one seen in the laptop cameo.
* Sometimes, mechanics from the core games were subject to this. In the case of the Poison status condition, there is a footnote that without provocation says that Steel-types are NOT immune to Poison, even saying they most likely never will be, even though Steel-type Pokémon became immune to Poison from the 3rd Gen onward.
* There's even a ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]''-related contradiction that is once again absurd. The first two games say that ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' takes place 50 years after the events of ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' (despite the fact that for this to be true, [[PlotHole Sonic and co. would have to be 50 years older]]) and that the game did a bad job of conveying it. Given this person, ''[=PPS1=]'' or ''[=PPS2=]'' would possibly say that all the other ''Sonic'' characters took [[TimeMachine Timerunners]] to the events of ''Shadow the Hedgehog'' as a way to explain their lack of aging if this were to be true. Even more egregious, all other ''Sonic'' games are stated to take place where they are established in the Sonic canon.
* Another case is regarding the ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'' games, in which the first two games say take place even further into the future than the co-creator's self-believed ''Shadow the Hedgehog'' timeline, and thus pushes ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' even further forward.
* Due to how bad these had gotten, in later ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games, a number of these unnecessary contradictions were [[AuthorsSavingThrow undone]] [[invoked]] in in order to keep things as consistent as possible between the ''PPS'' series and other things ''Pokémon'' and to prevent any more inane issues from happening again.

[[folder: Trivia]]

* AscendedFanon: [[invoked]] The anime girl look for V.E.R.I.C.A.S. ended being used in Endless Boundaries where she appears in the remake of the Star Database stage. Since her avatar is a hologram, it's not hard for her to assume this form.
* CreatorsApathy: [[invoked]]
** Sunflorazumarill admits that come ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' he gave up trying to correct any of the [[ContinuitySnarl contradictions]] to various things ''Pokémon'' made in the series by [[ExecutiveMeddling Carrington]] because he tried to do so in the past only for Carrington to remain rigid and in some cases further such contradictions, which could explain why they became so numerous come the second game. [[note]]Good luck getting Carrington to admit to this trope when it comes to the contradictions, because on the two instances people told him he was wrong about such things he told them ''they'' [[BelievingTheirOwnLies were wrong]].[[/note]]
** He also admits that the reason the series churned out [[CapcomSequelStagnation such a large number of sequels]] was because of the flow of ideas for stages and storylines that kept coming. However, he hopes to do a better job with ''Ultra Revival'' and slow things down should the series continue.
* ExecutiveMeddling: [[invoked]] The first two games in the series have their fair share of meddling from the [[http://pokegym.net/forums/member.php?113-Carrington388 second creator]] of those two games, who will bring up such changes throughout the two games, much to the dismay of [[http://sunflorazumarill.deviantart.com/ the first]]:
** Carrington was against the idea of there being a lives and checkpoint system in the game (and its sequel), so it's made pretty clear that ''any'' death fails the whole mission, forcing players to start a stage over from the beginning if it happened.
** The idea of ranks being rewarded to clearing stages in the game's single player mode was also vetoed by Carrington, with it being stated that ranks are only obtained in Special Mission Mode. This is also the case in the second game.
** The Mad Train stage could have been a high-tech train built by Team Plasma, but it was enforced by Carrington to be a passenger train hijacked by Team Plasma. A compromise was made that it's a passenger train that's been taken over by and being given an overhaul by Team Plasma.
** Sunflorazumarill wanted the Abandoned Lab stage to have some challenge instead of just being impossible to lose in, so [[LaserHallway mazes with lasers]] that could hurt were proposed, but this was vetoed. A compromise was made that the lasers don't hurt, but still make for some tricky puzzles.
** The Electra/Volker rivalry came to be as a result of Carrington's hatred for shipping after Sunflorazumarill invoked it in another work of theirs (in fact, several other rivalries in the series are the result of this). What was to be an Electra/Milane fight in Astro Platform was even changed to Electra/Volkner to further drive it in.
** As the {{Continuity}} folder shows, Carrington made a number of contradictions to various things Pokémon-related for no discernible reason. The way they're put in the game, it's like they were being made on purpose. (Oh wait, they were.) Some even go against ideas Sunflorazumarill had made for the games.
** A positive case of meddling from Carrington, however, was with something in ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Trinity''. Initially, the idea was that only Trainers from Unova (and Ash) would have Pokémon debuting in the [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite fifth Generation]], and ''only'' Pokémon from the fifth Generation (other than [[AnimalCompanion Ash's Pikachu]]), but Carrington quickly stepped in and declared that Trainers from Unova would also have Pokémon not from Unova and vice versa. Sunflorazumarill quickly decided that his original idea was stupid and decided not to go through with it at all, and games such as ''[[VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 Black 2 and White 2]]'' (which feature Pokémon from prior regions) would end up making the original restriction stupid to begin with. Sunflorazumarill has stated that he's glad that [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools he didn't go through with his original plan]].
* MilestoneCelebration: [[invoked]] ''Pokémon Peace Squad MAX'''s release is a double case, being on the 25th anniversary of the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' franchise as a whole, and the 15th anniversary of the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series itself.
* TrollingCreator: [[invoked]] Carrington, the aforementioned co-creator of the earlier ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games, tended to be this in some ways. Try to suggest lives and checkpoints, expect "fail the mission" to become InsistentTerminology. Invoke a ship, watch as it's turned into a rivalry. There's an element or event in ''Pokémon'' that Carrington doesn't agree with, see it blatantly contradicted before your eyes. Other examples exist as well.
* WordOfGay: [[invoked]] In more recent years, Sunflorazumarill decided to confirm the sexuality of some player characters:
** While his sexuality is more ambiguous in the anime, Harley is confirmed to be gay in the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series.
** Floreia is supposed to be bisexual and may possibly have a crush on Cissy.
** For a non-player character case, at least two of the hula girls on Hula Island in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' are lesbians and are in a relationship with each other.
* WordOfGod: [[invoked]] Over the years, Sunflorazumarill decided to confirm specific details regarding some things in the series:
** The story behind the Rocket Scorpion and Rocket Hydroplane in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' is that they were built using the remains of the Hunter Scorpion and Hunter Hydroplane after the destruction of the latter two.

[[folder: YMMV]]

* BestBossEver: [[invoked]] The Rocket Devil in Infinity. This boss is intense, as unlike any other boss in the game, it's split up into three different phases, each one utilizes a different gameplay type, and with each phase, the music (which is also awesome) gets more intense!
* BreatherLevel: [[invoked]] Abandoned Lab in ''[=PPS1=]'', which is [[ForegoneVictory impossible to lose]] unless you're playing as Volkner or playing in Jenny Mode.
* FanDislikedExplanation [[invoked]]
** Special Mission 2 for Death Yard in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' decided to label the events of three episodes from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] (Dawn catching Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash meeting Sinnoh Elite Four member Aaron) as lies perpetrated by the tabloid magazine K-Zone. This is upsetting to fans not only because it's an outright "justification" for contradicting those events by saying "Everything ''Pokémon'' told you about x is wrong!", but it also opens up the possibility of anything else contradicted by the ''PPS'' games can be construed as a tabloid lie as well.
** The scene in Mandarin Island Main City in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 1'''s difficulty pack expansion where Annie & Oakley [[BreakingTheFourthWall break the fourth wall]] to address that 99% of all "non-advertisement"-based errors are caused by [[AWizardDidIt space-time effects]] is also seen as this, as it hints at that the contradicted events or elements shown in the games and anime were actually the result of these space-time effects and that what the earlier ''PPS'' games tells us about them is what "really" happened.
* FandomEnragingMisconception: [[invoked]] Regarding the numerous occurrences in the earlier ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games that contradict various things from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] and main series games, don't say that any of them were the result of the creators [[SeriesContinuityError paying little attention to continuity]], as each and every one of them turns out to have been made on purpose, with various methods and cues that show this to be the case [[note]]For example, Barry being instead called Pearl and having different Pokémon would come off as them not being aware of Barry, if it weren't for Pearl doing something constantly referred to as the "Barry Dance", making it clear that Barry is being ignored on purpose.[[/note]]. The smoking gun proving all of these were done on purpose comes from a Special Mission in the second game that calls the events of three episodes of [[Anime/PokemonTheSeriesDiamondAndPearl the Sinnoh saga of the anime]] [[TakeThat lies brought up in a tabloid magazine]] [[note]]For example, the Hearthome Collection, which was the focus of the episode "Arriving in Style", was outright called a non-existent competition in that mission.[[/note]]. Further making this the case is that the games otherwise [[ContinuityCavalcade make references to many other minute things from the anime]].
* FandomHeresy [[invoked]]
** Saying that you believe or support the multiple contradictions of events or characters that the first two ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games perpetrated (ex: That the Hearthome Collection never happened, there is no character named Barry but one called Pearl, that Tabitha is a girl), even if the retcon in question contradicts something with negative fan reception (ex: [[ReplacementScrappy Ethan and Lyra]]), will upset most fans, given how absurd and unnecessary such changes are. You'll even be accused of trying to force such things about ''Pokémon'' on others just like [[ExecutiveMeddling the one making these kinds of assertions]].
** Never mention [[ContinuitySnarl Special]] [[ExternalRetcon Mission]] [[TrollingCreator 2]][[invoked]] of Death Yard in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' to those that are also fans of the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]], especially fans of the [[VideoGame/PokemonDIamondAndPearl Sinnoh]] saga, given that said Special Mission's purpose was to outright contradict three specific events, much to the fans' dismay.
** Believing or supporting the assertion that ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' takes place 50 years after ''VIdeoGame/SonicAdventure2'' is also a good way to get flamed by fans as well as ''[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]'' fans, given that it would be impossible for such a thing to be true since such characters would have to be really old and such a thing would also contradict the ''Sonic'' series as a whole.
* FoeRomanceSubtext: Some of Trixie's dialogue towards Samantha in various games suggest this. Not to mention one of her attacks when fighting her in ''[=PPS1=]'' and ''[=PPS2=]'' is blowing a kiss to Samantha. It also may be the other way around, too, as it seems Samantha has this with Trixie.
* FollowTheLeader: [[invoked]] In ''Pokémon Peace Squad Infinity'', the Speed-type stages' twisting paths, which can go upside-down and along walls, are similar to those in ''VideoGame/MarioKart8''.
* FranchiseOriginalSin: [[invoked]] The [[ContinuitySnarl deliberate snarl]] towards certain things ''Pokémon'' had begun as early as the first game [[note]]Such problems actually predate even the first game, with other projects the person has done or overseen, most notably a DS-transmitted event for ''VideoGame/PokemonXDGaleOfDarkness'' referring to Tabitha and Tate as males being paparazzi rumors.[[/note]], although the base game kept such things sparse, with only two such ones being brought up (that Tabitha and Tate are girls, made explicit with them being given female VA's here as opposed to the male ones they had in the anime) and not in such a repetitive way. The various expansions that came later would increase the number of such contradictions, such as the spelling of "[[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh]]", when ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' takes place, or there being a character named Eugene. It would be the second game when such things started to get out of hand, with over ''twenty'' such contradictions being present and doled left and right throughout the game, such as changing the lineups for Ash, Dawn, and Brock, Poké-stylists being called Pokémon Coordinators, Jupiter and Pokémon Hunter J being all but explicitly confirmed to be the same person, Barry not existing, but a character named Pearl doing so in his place, characters referred to as Ethan and Lyra actually being Jimmy and Marina in different outfits, and more. All of this reached its peak with a special mission that outright referred to three actual events from the anime as lies purported by the tabloid magazine you're rounding up issues of in said mission, basically a justification for contradicting those events and probably other such ones. Due to how bad these got, primarily with the departure of the person responsible for causing such ContinuitySnarl, later games would undo these absurd contradictions in ''Pokémon'' over time.
* FridgeHorror: [[invoked]]
** While it's already been established that Giovanni and Team Rocket have most likely conducted horrifying experiments on Pokémon and likely killed some, the Death Castle stage in ''Chaos Adventure'', which takes place in a castle owned by Giovanni, gives us something even more horrific. Within the dungeon beneath the castle are several kinds of torture devices, such as stockades, racks, iron maidens, hot pokers, and more. Some of the characters state that such devices in there were used recently, indicating that Giovanni may have authorized acts of torture and death within that dungeon against what is most likely humans!
*** Even worse, whenever you get close to vents along the walls, floors, and ceilings of the dungeon, ghostly skeletal arms with blue flames will grab you, giving you a hellish idea of what may have gone on in this dungeon. Because of this, it's possible that Team Rocket could be the most depraved villainous team there is!
** In ''Endless Boundaries'', [[spoiler: the core of the Plasma Astral Base is an organic complex of flesh, sinew, and brain stems merged with metal and machinery, with column-like cascades of what could likely be ''blood'' pooling at the bottom of the area and massive brains that you have to destroy to progress. Then after defeating [=MechaMew2=], you see Ghetsis, and only his head remains normal, the rest of him having been integrated into the base. In short, you were making your way ''through Ghetsis'' and ''punching out his brains'' in the process]]!
* InferredHolocaust: [[invoked]] In ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Chaos Adventure'''s prologue, [[spoiler: Team Rocket]] unleashes an energy wave that causes the entire region of Aerocia to rise into the sky before breaking into several pieces. Given the nature of this event, [[spoiler: Team Rocket]] may have just slaughtered millions!
* MemeticMutation: [[invoked]] Like other things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games have garnered a handful of memes:
** "You failed the mission." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Said every time you die, go out of bounds, or anything else that causes you to lose. Enforced by one of the creators to the point of DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment and InsistentTerminology, sometimes even used in place of [[NeverSayDie death]].[[/labelnote]]
** "[=Ih8shipping=]" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The more meddling of the creators had a habit of [[ShipSinking turning any pairing that was invoked in anything he did into a rivalry]]. Reached its peak when Electra/Volkner was accurately predicted to be turned into one after they were shipped and said creator actually [[AuthorTract expressed his hatred of shipping]] ''ingame'' by having the player type this word into a computer in Special Mission 4 for Galactic Base in the first game.[[/labelnote]]
** "Piplup is unmarketable crap!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]In the second game's Quest Mode, you decide to show the person in Westopolis who lets your Pokémon star in commercials a Piplup, he'll cite the above quote and kick you out. Sometimes used to reference Piplup's CreatorsPet [[invoked]] status in the anime or other Pokémon that fans don't like.[[/labelnote]]
** "X is a tabloid lie." [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of the creators of the earlier games had a nasty habit of deliberately contradicting some things ''Pokémon'' through various means, the most infamous being Special Mission 2 of Death Yard in the second game having you collect issues of an infamous tabloid known for spreading lies and rumors about various things and giving three examples of such lies, all three of them being actual events from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]]. Is sometimes used to refer to something contradicted by the ''PPS'' games, an UrbanLegendOfZelda [[invoked]] that's untrue, something in ''Pokémon'' rendered [[CanonDiscontinuity non-canon]], or something in ''Pokémon'' [[FanonDiscontinuity fans wish was]].[[/labelnote]]
** "TOTAL AND ABSOLUTE DESTRUCTION!!!" [[labelnote:Explanation (spoilers)]]Said by Ghetsis during the Last Story in ''Endless Boundaries''. Has gained notoriety for its LargeHam and NarmCharm [[invoked]] status.[[/labelnote]]
** "You won't do SHIT to it!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]At one point late in ''Ultra Revival'', we get the first instance of an extreme curse word from Guzma. Considered by some people to be on par with [[VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog Shadow's]] "Where's that damn FOURTH Chaos Emerald."[[/labelnote]]
* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: [[invoked]] There is a cutscene in ''Pokémon Peace Squad Infinity'' where the two characters you've chosen enter the Plasma Tower and encounter a large group of Bisharp Blades. One asks the two to identify themselves or be eliminated, with the Speed-type character going "Well, my name is…", then homing attacking the robot before sending out his or her strongest Pokémon along with the second character doing the same and both laying waste to the robots before a Golurk Titan shows up.
* NoDamageRun: [[invoked]] In ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'', there are four Special Missions that involve this, [[FourIsDeath all of them Mission 4's]]. For Volcano Valley's, you must make is through the stage without Caitlin taking damage (Darach taking damage is fine). Mission 4C for Corel Mountain takes it a step further by making it so that ''neither'' character is allowed to take damage. Draco Starbase Area 4 has one for Argenta where she can't take damage and has to reach the end within a [[TimedMission time limit]]. Finally, [[spoiler: Empire City]] has one that does the same thing, only with Agatha.
* ReplacementScrappy: [[invoked]] Much like in the [[Anime/PokemonGenesectAndTheLegendAwakened sixteenth movie]], the second Mewtwo (who shows up in ''Pokémon Peace Squad Infinity'') happens to be this. However, it's not as severe in this game due to the fact that its role isn't as prominent (although still a large role), it's backstory is expanded ([[spoiler:it was commissioned by Team Plasma (BW) and also implied that it would've served [=MechaMew2=]'s role in ''Endless Boundaries'' if it hadn't escaped]]), and most importantly, ''Infinity'' doesn't disregard the [[Anime/PokemonTheFirstMovie first Mewtwo]], who is actually referenced at several points in the game (the player character initially mistakes the second Mewtwo for the first one and Giovanni upon capturing it says that he never thought there would ever be another of its kind). However, this Mewtwo was still PutOnABus at the game's end due to negative reception. [[note]]The reason this Mewtwo was used was probably due to the same reasons why they couldn't use the Mewtwo from the [[Anime/PokemonTheFirstMovie first movie]]; being [[ScrewedByTheLawyers unable to secure the rights]] to that Mewtwo from Takeshi Shudo's estate. Here, though, the first Mewtwo was still able to be acknowledged as well as being one of Giovanni's Pokémon in Multiplayer.[[/note]]
* {{Sequelitis}}: [[invoked]] The creator himself has pointed out that the games started to decline in quality after ''[=PPS3=]'' (and even then, ''[=PPS2=]'' is considered the high point of the series). It's best to see the series like this; ''[=PPS1=] – [=PPS3=]'' were the Golden Age; ''Chaos Adventure'' and ''Trinity'' (and possibly ''Endless Boundaries'') as the Silver Age, and anything beyond as the Bronze Age.
* ShipSinking: [[invoked]] Actually ''[[EnforcedTrope enforced]]'' via [[AuthorTract one of the creators]]. Said creator has a history for when anyone (like the other creator) invokes a shipping (such as Brock and Erika), he will turn it into a rivalry; the more the characters are shipped, the more he makes the two characters hate each other. The biggest offender happens to be Cissy and Danny, whose rivalry is so fierce that (prior to ''Trinity'') they refuse to work together on ''anything'', to the point where they can't be paired in ''any stage'' in the first three games, and it's even to the point where in many stages in those games, Danny can't even be paired with Floreia (Cissy's friend). To make this problem even more egregious, after an Electra/Volkner pairing was devised, that pairing was quickly turned into a rivalry. Even more so, a Special Mission in the ''Timerunners'' expansion of the first game actually uses the word "[=Ih8shipping=]" at one point and on at least two occasions in fights with Volkner, [[BreakingTheFourthWall Electra addresses "idiot shippers"]]. [[CaptainObvious This person definitely hates shipping]].
** Even pairings such as Ash and Misty aren't safe from these anti-shipping measures. For example, Misty [[spoiler: doesn't cry over Ash being abducted by Team Draco]] and in [[spoiler: Draco Starbase Area 4, Ash tells "Dust" he doesn't feel that way about Misty ([[SubvertedTrope although he faked throwing Misty's lure out the airlock]])]].
** However, even with all of this, people still ship some of these characters together and later games show them having CharacterDevelopment amongst each other and more willing to work together (Cissy and Danny have become more friendly towards each other by ''Endless Boundaries'' and ''Infinity'', for instance).
* TakeThatScrappy: [[invoked]] Episode 10 of ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' features the [[DamselScrappy widely despised]] Princess Elise from [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic '06]] showing up, to be kidnapped by Pokémon Hunter J. She also gets kidnapped by Team Rocket during an Optional Quest Mode Mission for Kingdom Valley. The game pulls no punches with Elise's infamy as around ''50%'' of the playable characters have idle quotes if you stand around in Kingdom Valley, further bashing her:
--> Brock: I know I should be head over heels for Elise, but there's something about her that makes me sick to my stomach…
--> Misty: Getting kidnapped, Elise? I think you’re used to it by now. Learn to defend yourself, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch]]!
--> Erika: [Elise] reminds me of a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros princess in a pink dress]], one who gets kidnapped all the time. Even then, she's far better than this one.
--> Sabrina: *throws up in mouth* I have felt that Princess Elise kissed a person once. A ''dead'' person.
--> Shingo: I'm wondering if we should let Princess Elise into the Squad after rescuing her. Never. It would be an insult to do so.
--> Harley: I hate this Elise princess! I hate her! I hate her! I HATE HER! I HATE HER! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis I! HATE! HER!]]
--> Marley: I can't shake this feeling that Elise may have kissed something not far from a dead Shaymin. *shudders*
* {{Tearjerker}}: [[invoked]] Without a doubt, [[spoiler: the scene in ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Endless Boundaries'' after all universes have been annihilated, and Ash and N are dead. Not to mention Blaze and Silver being erased from existence]]. The music during this scene helps.
* UnexpectedCharacter: [[invoked]] ''Pokémon Peace Squad Ultra Revival'' has some:
** Sho, who previously in the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series was only seen in an Optional Mission in ''[=PPS2=]'''s Quest Mode, returns as a member of Team Skull and [[OptionalBoss potential boss]].
** Nancy, who was also last seen in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' and last mentioned in ''Chaos Adventure'', returns as being affiliated with the Aether Foundation.

The page below may be expanded over time with more tropes and entries. Games with a large number of tropes, such as ''DarthWiki/PokemonPeaceSquad2ChaosCollision'', have their own work pages.

* NoKillLikeOverkill: [[spoiler:Basically how the player defeats Hun and Attila at the end of Molten Citadel. By hitting switches, the player ''engulfs Hun in a cascade of molten steel and envelops Attila in a surge of one'', something that's horrible for ''anyone'' to be subjected to!]]

The infamous "Barrel of Doom" appears late in the stage, but due to being broken down is dealt with a single drop stomp.]]
* BadFuture: There's a difference to the time travel in this game's Expert and Master Modes, where instead of going between the past and present, you go through the past and future, except that the future for each stage looks bleak (example; throughout Tropic Factory, large bio-mechanical vines are choking the environment ([[spoiler: most likely due to Farlie having merged himself with the Flora Tower having not been undone]])). However, destroying the stage's Enemy Capsule in the past will give the stage a much better future (example, Computer City will have become a bright cyber utopia where digital roads twist throughout the area).

* BonusLevel: [[spoiler: Rainbow Secret as a whole is a surreal and abstract area unlocked after clearing the game, with its stages having a rainbow motif. You need to collect the Red Star Rings from various Episodes in order to [[DoubleUnlock unlock these stages]].]]
* BonusLevelOfHeaven: [[spoiler: Mystic Realm is an area of crystal formations in a [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Special Stage]]-like environment that you navigate in your Super form.

* DiscOneFinalDungeon: [[spoiler: Rocket Fortress gives off the feeling of being the final set of stages due to it being the supersized ship that is the focus of the game's story and would be the case if it weren't for Team Crystal hijacking the plot after Giovanni's defeat.]]

* FuturisticSuperhighway: [[spoiler: Chrome Highway is a large energy-road based highway making its way through the Rocket Fortress area. You'll go along the highway, through tunnels, on transparent colored platforms above the highway, and drive along the highway. There are also large gaps along the highway you need to be weary of.]]
* GreenHillZone: Verdant Generator is town consisting of both nature and cybernetics, where Team Plasma is [[WeirdWeather messing with the park's weather system]]. The Past version of the stage lacks the cybernetics on the trees and environment.

* SteamPunk: Network Highway (Past) is vastly different from its Present incarnation, instead being a giant steampunk city with gears lining the buildings, bridges that trains rush along, and steam jets that boost you up.
* SuperMode: One of the main focuses of ''Pokémon Peace Squad Crystal Freeze'' happens to be the use of [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY Mega Evolution]], where most characters have a Pokémon capable of achieving this.

* TheHedgeOfThorns: Piranha Grove is a huge suspended growth of spiked vines connected to giant [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Piranha Plants]] (note that both ''Franchise/{{Mario}}'' and ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' are owned by Creator/{{Nintendo}}) that you'll navigate through.
* TimeTravel: One of the main gimmicks of this installment. Here, Time Crystals in stages send you back and forth between the present and 100 years in the past, giving each stage two different looks a la ''VideoGame/SonicCD''.
* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler: Prof. Freonia, who has been assisting you and Prof. Oak throughout the game, turns out to have been Team Crystal's leader the whole time in order to get her hands on what she needed for the Time Freeze System; which includes the Mega Satellite core, Diancie, [=MechaMew2=], and Metal Sonic.]]
* TreeTrunkTour: Citrus Coast's Gigantic Fruit Tree sub-level takes place in and around a giant tree that you climb while solving giant fruit-based puzzles, including filling the tree with juice in order to reach the top.
* UndergroundLevel:
** Flora Plant (Past) is vastly different than the stage is normally, being a ruin-like cavern overgrown with vines. In place of the two kinds of Mega Mack are instead normal color water and green-color water.
** Red-Hot Ride takes place in caverns with some aspects of a mine that are also filled with blue-color lava.
** Ruby Cavern is a gigantic ice cave with crystalline pillars as well as large Red Ice formations that you'll need to use Blue Fire to melt.

** [[spoiler: The Water Generator dome of Crystal Base Area 3 is half-flooded, forcing you to head underwater at times on the way to the Water Generator.]]
* UnderwaterBase:
** Aqua Zone is a massive base with giant areas containing small lakes of water. There are switches that cause some pools to teleport away or in, including some that do this automatically.
** [[spoiler: Crystal Base is a colossal complex that hollows out part of the ocean located in the past when Megime City was still floating. It serves as the final level of the game and is split into five separate areas.]]
* UnderwaterRuins:
** Pristine Palisade consists of ruins breaching the ocean's surface. At one point, you'll take a teleporter to deep under the sea to progress.
** Old Observatory happens to be this due to being located within parting walls of water with some underwater areas, you'll swim through.
* VoidBetweenTheWorlds: Subspace Anomaly takes place inside a space distortion that messes with the laws of physics.

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad Ultra Revival]]

''Pokémon Peace Squad Ultra Revival'' is the ninth game in the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' spinoff series ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' and for the Nintendo Switch. The game returns to the roots of the first three games with several of its mechanics, such as being a fully 3D game as opposed to being [[TwoAndAHalfD 3D with 2D sections]], a difficulty more in line with the first ''PPS'' games, and giving the villains a bit more of a role in the game's story rather than just being there, not to mention trying to make the game more story driven than some of the [[ExcusePlot last entries in the series]]. Basically, it's a [[ArcWords revival]] of the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series.\\
\\
The story is that while the Squad is on a routine mission that involves liberating a small town from [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Team Skull]], a mysterious portal opens up in the sky, sending multiple scores of mysterious interdimensional creatures down below, which quickly begin wreaking havoc everywhere, and this happens to the rest of the world. Unfortunately, the creatures have the upper hand and [[FromBadToWorse making things worse]], something prevents the world's Pokéballs and weapons from working, allowing them to be victorious! It's revealed that these beasts were brought into this world by none other than [[BigBad Giovanni]], leader of Team Rocket, who thanks to these creatures, named Ultra Beasts, has managed to [[TakeOverTheWorld make the world his]]! Giovanni gives the world two options, [[SadisticChoice surrender or perish]], and gives the [[WeCanRuleTogether other villainous teams this option as well]]. However, the Pokémon Peace Squad won't take this lying down and vow to not only free the world from Giovanni's grasp, but also deal with any other bad guys that plan on using the Ultra Beasts for their own ends.\\
\\
The game offers a number of new features in the game, one being that stages are now split into two parts, dubbed [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog acts]], and tend to involve environment changes to make the stages more interesting in level design. In addition, the player character is also able to collect Z-Crystals and use them to unleash devastating [[SpecialAttack Z-Moves]].\\
\\
A year after its release, a DLC expansion for the game was released, called ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Ultra Revival Aftermath'', which takes place before and after the main game. It involves nine stages spanning three episodes and in addition brings in new Ultra Beasts as foes, a plot revolving around [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon the Ultra Recon Squad and Necrozma]], some new playable characters, and also an alternate take on the endgame.

* ExecutiveMeddling: [[invoked]] The first two games in the series have their fair share of meddling from the [[http://pokegym.net/forums/member.php?113-Carrington388 second creator]] of those two games, who will bring up such changes throughout the two games, much to the dismay of [[http://sunflorazumarill.deviantart.com/ the first]]:\\
\\
''Pokémon Peace Squad 1'' examples:
* Carrington was against the idea of there being a lives and checkpoint system in the game (and its sequel), so it's made pretty clear that ''any'' death fails the whole mission, forcing players to start a stage over from the beginning if it happened.
* The idea of ranks being rewarded to clearing stages in the game's single player mode was also vetoed by Carrington, with it being stated that ranks are only obtained in Special Mission Mode. This is also the case in the second game.
* The Mad Train stage could have been a high-tech train built by Team Plasma, but it was enforced by Carrington to be a passenger train hijacked by Team Plasma. A compromise was made that it's a passenger train that's been taken over by and being given an overhaul by Team Plasma.
* Sunflorazumarill wanted the Abandoned Lab stage to have some challenge instead of just being impossible to lose in, so [[LaserHallway mazes with lasers]] that could hurt were proposed, but this was vetoed. A compromise was made that the lasers don't hurt, but still make for some tricky puzzles.
* The Electra/Volker rivalry came to be as a result of Carrington's hatred for shipping after Sunflorazumarill invoked it in another work of theirs (in fact, several other rivalries in the series are the result of this). What was to be an Electra/Milane fight in Astro Platform was even changed to Electra/Volkner to further drive it in.\\
\\
''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' happens to be rife with ExecutiveMeddling[[invoked]]:
* Sunflorazumarill's original pitch for the game didn't involve so much vehicle usage. Most of the vehicles in the game were shoehorned in by Carrington, almost making vehicle driving one of the gimmicks of the game. In most cases, driving these vehicles is required to clear various stages. In addition, while the first game had no such mechanic, most vehicles now require fuel (which you have to pay for) in order to use.
* The fact that various actions in the game (such as swimming) now require things such as Intermediate and Advanced Orbs, Diamonds, and Pearls, even though all actions were available from the start in the first game, was also added in by Carrington. One such case is the start of the Aqua Submarine stage, which was originally intended to have the character start swimming from the get-go regardless, but was changed to piloting a small submarine inside it (and it being blown up if you're able to swim from the beginning).
* Due to his role as a villain in this game, Giovanni was replaced by Silver (the [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver GSC]] rival) as a playable character. However, even after this, Giovanni was made a playable character anyway (albeit one unlocked at one point in Quest Mode) and on top of that, Jessie & James were also made playable characters (also unlocked in Quest Mode). Due to the story, however, they can't be used in Episode 5, Highwind Crisis, or Episode 13, and playing as them is outright stated to be [[CanonDiscontinuity non-canon]] to the game's story.
* At the end of the Flora Biome stage, there was originally supposed to be a line from the villagers about turning the complex into an ecology base, but was removed. Instead, it's stated that the Team Flora helicopter at the end is big enough to seat everyone, implying that the villagers leave with the chosen character.
* In Episode 5, Jessie & James were originally supposed to be battled only in Antarctic Lake. Instead, they were made to be battled once in Ice Metropolis (despite a boss battle already occurring shortly beforehand), once in Antarctic Lake, and twice in Freeze Plant. In addition, several additional bosses were shoehorned into Freeze Plant in both Jenny and Expert Modes.
* Originally, Pokémon Hunter J was supposed to only be hired by the [[LegionOfDoom Meta Alliance]] to do two tasks for them, but this was changed to be that she was a part of the organization. In addition, J was supposed to [[spoiler: suffer a DisneyDeath]] regardless of the character you played as after defeating her, but was changed to that some characters get a different cutscene [[spoiler: where the DisneyDeath]] doesn't happen. To top things off, in Episode 13, J was originally going to leave after delivering [[spoiler: Prof. Oak and Knuckles]] to the Meta Alliance, but she and her henchmen were added to the bestiary for Episode 13's stages.
* Despite having no relevance to the story of the game whatsoever, Timerunners and Spaceriders were shoehorned into the game (with Timerunners only appearing in Episode 12). In addition, a new vehicle called a Ghostdasher was also added to the game, despite it having no relevance either and only appearing in Episode 12 and Meteor Base.
* Gold Beetles (from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'') were slated to appear once in ''every'' stage of the game, but in the end, they were relegated into only being in any stage taken from a ''Sonic'' game (although in some cases more than one appears in a stage).
* Drill Dozers were supposed to make a return in [=PPS2=]'s multiplayer mode, but were taken out. Even more egregious, every multiplayer mode ''except'' "Destroy the Dozer" made a return and several new modes were added in as well.
* One of the most egregious examples of things changed from Sunflorazumarill's original vision was with the collectible card system, in which he stated all the methods for collecting them (all of which involve clearing a stage with certain conditions met). In addition to bumping the number of cards from 1200 to 2400, ''none'' of the original intended ways of collecting cards were used in the final version. In fact, none of the actual implemented ways ''even involve clearing the stage''.
* As the {{Continuity}} folder shows, Carrington made a number of contradictions to various things Pokémon-related for no discernible reason. The way they're put in the game, it's like they were being made on purpose. (Oh wait, they were.) Some even go against ideas Sunflorazumarill had made for the games.\\
\\
A positive case of meddling from Carrington, however, was with something in ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Trinity''. Initially, the idea was that only Trainers from Unova (and Ash) would have Pokémon debuting in the [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite fifth Generation]], and ''only'' Pokémon from the fifth Generation (other than [[AnimalCompanion Ash's Pikachu]]), but Carrington quickly stepped in and declared that Trainers from Unova would also have Pokémon not from Unova and vice versa. Sunflorazumarill quickly decided that his original idea was stupid and decided not to go through with it at all, and games such as ''[[VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 Black 2 and White 2]]'' (which feature Pokémon from prior regions) would end up making the original restriction stupid to begin with. Sunflorazumarill has stated that he's glad that [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools he didn't go through with his original plan]].

The page below may be expanded over time with more tropes and entries.

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad 2]]

The first full-on sequel to ''Pokémon Peace Squad'', ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' takes all the things that the first one gave us and takes them [[UpToEleven up to eleven]]. Another episodic saga, this time, the arrival of seven unusual crystalline meteors from space with some connection to the Chaos Emeralds prompts not just the Pokémon Peace Squad to start searching for them, but also all the villainous teams, [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Dr. Eggman]], and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII the Turks]], who have formed an organization of their own called the [[LegionOfDoom Meta Alliance]], led by the mysterious [[BigBad Meta Leader]]. On top of that, there's also the threat of a downright MASSIVE robot built to destroy the Pokémon Peace Squad to tangle with. With this new combined threat, the Squad already has their work cut out for them. The sequel adds in several new features, such as the option to now choose two Pokémon out of a pool of three (although some characters only get to choose one out of two), Pokémon now coming with helpful abilities, and two new stats in Health and Jump that help to further individualize each playable character, as well as doubling the number of playable characters from before and adding in faves such as Ash Ketchum and various movie characters, hidden boss fights, and much more.\\

In addition to all this, there's also the game's Quest Mode, where you choose from one of several customizable Pokémon Trainer bases who joins a troupe of mercenaries that is the precursor to the Pokémon Peace Squad. Here, typical ''Pokémon'' RPG elements blend with ''PPS'' gameplay as you level yourself up, catch Pokémon you can use to not just get through stages but also have battle in traditional Pokémon matches, and fight the various villains causing trouble. You can even transfer Pokémon to and from various handheld games or use your Quest Mode character in Story Mode! In addition, you get to travel through not just all the well-known ''Pokémon'' regions ([[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Kanto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Johto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Hoenn]], and [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh]]), but also the [[Anime/PokemonTheOriginalSeries Orange Islands]], [[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Or]][[VideoGame/PokemonXDGaleOfDarkness re]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRanger Fiore, Almia]], various ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' locations, Star City, and even ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' landmarks! It's like playing a whole other game.\\

A lot of the other additional flair that the first game had also returns for this, such as several extra stages you can play, an expanded multiplayer mode, tons of minigames you and your friends can partake in, being able to take part in simulated gambling, a race mode with a ton of different styles of racing, a small-but cool fighting game, a massive collectible card system with so many things ''Pokémon'', ''Sonic'', and ''Final Fantasy'', and a number of other hidden features you can access. Due to the '''immense''' size of this game, it marks the return of the three-disc format that games such as ''Final Fantasy VII'' were known for, and there is more than enough content packed in this game to last a lifetime and there may always be something new for you to discover.

!'''Tropes that apply to Pokémon Peace Squad 2:'''

* AnyoneCanDie: This quickly ends up being the case in the game's Quest Mode, where your mercenary friends die one by one (or even multiple at a time). [[spoiler: By the revisit to Chemical Plant in Chapter 9, with Serena's death, who makes a HeroicSacrifice, your character is the only one left.]]
* AssistCharacter: Characters from the ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]'' series, ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', along with VideoGame/{{Pulseman}}, [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]], [[Franchise/MetalGear Solid Snake]], and [[VideoGame/{{Earthbound}} Ness]], among others, appear in various stages and are controllable using a second controller.
* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler: Knuckles ends up being this when Hunter J attacks Prof. Oak's lab and takes the Chaos Meteors to give to the Meta Alliance. Prof. Oak and Tracey are also nabbed.]]
* BagOfSpilling: In the first game, the chosen character had all skills available to them at the start, but in this game, the various skills have been relegated to tiers referred to as basic, intermediate, and advanced, and higher tier ones can only be done after obtaining Intermediate or Advanced Orbs, Diamond, or Pearl. Such a glaring example is swimming, and if you don't have at least an Intermediate Orb or Diamond, you'll lose instantly upon going into water. This applies more to the Orbs, which only last the duration of the stage, which can make things awkward if you for example collect an Intermediate Orb in one stage and are able to swim only to lose the ability to do so in the stage afterward.
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Optional Mission 2 for Astrom Platform in Quest Mode involves a girl named Mikiko who's dying from AIDS and [[{{Tearjerker}} has only ten minutes to live]]. However, there are crooks about that want to kill her to collect a bounty before she can die naturally. You're supposed to stop them from being able to kill her beforehand and have her die a natural death.
* BigApplesauce: Stardust City has aspects of this.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Sephiroth has been defeated by the combined efforts of your character, Sonic, and Shadow, who manage to use the Chaos Emeralds to restore the universe, and [[OfficialCouple Ryan and Nancy]] get married. However, your character ended up lost to the dimensions, although Prof. Oak decides to start working on creating a device in order to find and bring your character back. Note that if you're playing as certain characters (such as Ash); they'll be revealed to have made it back after all.]]
** [[spoiler: In addition, if you managed to find the Arena Pass in Dimension Maze, you'll be treated to a [[BonusBoss bonus fight]] with the King of Pokélantis, where win or lose, your character will end up reappearing in Pokélantis and thus have returned home.]]
* BonusBoss: Aqua Submarine, Egg Hovercraft, Plasma Tower, Ice Gate, Hunter Carrier, Galactic Elevator, and Dimension Maze have something called an Arena Pass. Clearing the stage with one in tow gives you one-time access to a boss stage where you fight Gigantic Mantine, another playable character, a brawl of enemies, [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Emerald Weapon]], or [[spoiler: the King of Pokélantis]]. To fight that boss again requires you to clear the stage with the Arena Pass again.
* ContinuingIsPainful: In addition to having to start the stage all over again like in Story Mode, Quest Mode also sends you back to the last Pokémon Center visited with half of you money gone (just like in the core series ''Pokémon'' games).
* ContinuitySnarl: While the first game has aspects of this, ''[=PPS2=]'' was especially bad about contradicting several elements from other things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''. What makes this worse was that these were deliberate as they were the result of ExecutiveMeddling[[invoked]]. Basically, such retcons were shoehorned into the game, in ways that they let you ''know'' they were being contradicted, tended to be brought up repeatedly, and there were even special missions whose underlying purpose was to further such things, with by far the biggest offender being Mission 2 for Death Yard, which ''explicitly'' refers to three actual events from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] as being rumors perpetrated by a tabloid magazine [[note]]More specifically, the three events cited as lies are Dawn catching a Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash, Brock, and Dawn meeting Aaron of the Sinnoh Elite Four.[[/note]].
* DoomedByCanon: During the first nine Chapters of Quest Mode, you're introduced to several members of the mercenary troupe that was the precursor to the Pokémon Peace Squad. None of these characters appear anywhere else, and over time it becomes quite apparent why.
** SavedByCanon: On the other hand, none of the villains encountered in Quest Mode can die or be brought to justice because of their roles in this game as well as the first, which precede this game's Quest Mode.
* EnemyMine: [[spoiler: Taken [[UpToEleven up to eleven]] before the final stage of the game, where after Meta Leader reveals himself to Sephiroth and that he only used the villainous teams for his own goals and tries to destroy both them and the Pokémon Peace Squad, he ''[[EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt shatters the universe]]''! All the villains decide to team up with the good guys and stop Sephiroth before it's too late.]]
* EpicFail: The sad fate of Piplup being able to be in commercials. In this game's Quest Mode, you learn about a pharmaceutical company that had used Piplup in extensive marketing of their product, a medicine called Pip-Pup. Only 40 people ever bought the product, none of which even saw the commercials, and later all 40 customers died from the drug, which was then taken off the market. [[OldShame This forever made Piplup infamous in the commercial industry, with it being labeled as unmarketable.]] [[invoked]] Ironically, Prinplup and Empoleon are actually the ''most'' marketable Pokémon for commercials.
** This has been brought up in later games, such as ''Chaos Adventure'' with Dawn having said that commercials are the one thing her Piplup hasn't been able to star in, due to the infamy of Pip-Pup.
* EscortMission: Every Stage 2 for Episodes 3 – 14 has a character that you rescue that you have to reach the end with the first time you play the stage, basically making the stage a little harder. Upon clearing the stage, however, that character becomes playable.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In Chapter 7 of Quest Mode, it's revealed that Dr. Eggman had the Egg Spiker scrapped because it had so many flaws (no less than 22), it was a deathtrap for anyone that piloted it and he made it clear that no one should've piloted it in the first place.
* EvilInc: Altru Inc. from ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRanger Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]'' is explicitly stated starting from Blake Hall taking over to be a front for Team Dim Sun.
* ExternalRetcon:
** As noted in the ContinuitySnarl example above, the events of the anime episodes where Dawn caught Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash meeting Sinnoh Elite Four member Aaron are told in this game to be lies perpetrated by the tabloid K-Zone.
** Another such example is that Ethan and Lyra are instead haters of Jimmy and Marina that are trying to ruin their image and that it is actually Jimmy and Marina wearing their HG/SS outfits that are supposed to be the HG/SS protagonists.
* FaceHeelTurn: Upon your first visit to Cipher Key Lair in Quest Mode, [[spoiler: you'll come across either Lex or Siara, who reveals him/herself to be upset over the other's death in the first stage of the mode and decided to leave the mercenary troupe and assist various villains in the hopes of coming across you and exacting revenge. Using a mech Dr. Eggman scrapped for unknown reasons, he/she decides to fight you.]]
** HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: Unfortunately, due to the mech in question being really faulty (there's a reason Eggman abandoned it), Lex/Siara fails to escape the craft before it explodes, killing him/her in the process.]]
*** MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler: Actually said by your character after the above event. Taking responsibility for Lex/Siara's death, your character turns him or herself into the police for what happened. Not long after, it's revealed that the mech was scrapped because Eggman deemed it a deathtrap and that it wasn't your character's fault for what happened, allowing him or her to be freed.]]
* FantasticDrug: Mudkip Scale, which is ingested by licking. It's known to have narcotic properties and prolonged use can even cause [[MushroomSamba hallucinations]]. Further prolonged use can also [[OhCrap lead to death]].
* ForcedTutorial: One that drags on is given to you before you go to the first stage. Here, you're taught everything, even simple things such as [[YouHaveResearchedBreathing forward and backward movement]] (taught separately). [[YouShouldntKnowThisAlready You can't even perform an action until you're told to do it the first time.]]
* HellishCopter: When you enter the second half of Oil Labyrinth, you'll end up being chased by the Blade Copter, a helicopter with a vertical array of sawblades swinging underneath it. The blades will also cut through pipes containing oil while flares are thrown from the Blade Copter at you. Once you're cornered by it, you'll discover than Garret of the Go-Rock Quads is the one piloting the Blade Copter and take it head on, downing it. The Blade Copter makes a return at one point in Night Fleet, this time unmanned.
* HumongousMecha: Taken [[UpToEleven up to eleven]] with Regicolossus.
* IdolSinger: Quest Mode gives us Rica, a sixteen-year old (at the convergence point) pop and gravure idol that's famous throughout the Kanto region. She first appears having been captured by Team Flora and has to be rescued from the Leaf Storm stage. Afterwards, you get to watch the idol perform at a concert at Indigo Stadium. In addition, there's also Rica's fellow idol, Megumi (who is one year Rica's junior).
* KaizoTrap: Upon clearing Quest Mode Optional Mission 1 for Flight 999, you seemingly clear the mission (with it even being labeled Success), [[spoiler: only to then appear on the Cargo Ship with Mr. Kincaid, who you protected in the mission, revealing himself to be TheDragon to Team Dim Sun's leader, and saying this is the end for you, forcing you into a fight with him. If you lose, you have to the whole mission over (with Success even changing to Failure).]]
* KarmaHoudini: ''Every'' villain in Quest Mode ends up getting away without punishment for their crimes, which include (prior to Chapter 10) the deaths of every mercenary but yourself. Then again, if any of them got justice, [[DoomedByCanon they wouldn't appear in the game's main story]].
* KilledMidSentence: Early on in Quest Mode, you come across a [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Tingle Expy]] that offers to make a map of the entire known Pokémon world, who chants "Tingle. Tingle. Kooloo-lim-" only to get shot by a sniper. He does manage to say "pah" before falling dead, though.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Regarding ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRanger Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]'', this game, mainly its Quest Mode, makes no attempt to hide that Blake Hall is Team Dim Sun's leader, [[UpToEleven even when the Quest Mode character themselves doesn't know]].
* LegionOfDoom: The Meta Alliance, which consists of every villainous team that has been known at the time of this game, plus Dr. Eggman and the Turks. [[spoiler:It's also led by Sephiroth.]]
* LuckBasedMission: Two Special Missions happen to be this.
** Mission 2 for Tropical Trees requires you to execute one of seven special moves within 10:00 using Metronome. Since these moves are drawn out of a pool of about 474, you just have to keep using Metronome and hope you pull off one such move before time runs out.
** Mission 2 for Draco Starbase Area 5 is a textbook example of being luck-based. Sonrisa can only throw up to 100 bottles of steroids in order to get one that explodes (which is reduced to ½% for this mission). All you can really do here is throw steroids until one explodes, restarting the mission every time you throw 100 without success.
* MirrorWorld: There's one introduced in this game. In it, the Meta Alliance is a heroic police force while the Pokémon Peace Squad are bad guys, effectively making it an evil parallel universe, [[CaptainObvious not to mention the layout is mirrored]]. It's reached by vehicles called Ghostdashers found in Episode 12 and Episode 14's Meteor Base and you must also be weary of your [[EvilCounterpart evil doppelganger]] having gone to the normal world. The Mirror World also returns in Endless Boundaries as a mechanic in a stage there.
** An episode of the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] also coincidentally involved the Mirror World.
* MovesetClone: ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' has several of these, usually with mission-exclusive human enemies being reskins of other human enemies, but the most noticeable example happens to be Jupiter and Pokémon Hunter J, which have the same stats, use the same tactics, and even use similar boss mechs. In fact, the game considers them to be the same enemy. This is all in accordance to it being all but explicitly confirmed that the two are the same person. Taken UpToEleven with Team Galactic Grunts and Hunter Henchmen also being clones of one another and the game considering them to be the same enemy.
* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler: During the end of the game, Sephiroth, revealed to be the true identity of Meta Leader, manages to shatter the entire universe, turning it into a broken mess of torn locations, and the good guys manage to defeat him just moments before he finishes the job.]]
* {{Nerf}}: ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' has two of these over the first game:
** Vehicles in the first game could be driven indefinitely, but in this game, most vehicles require fuel to use, which costs money to do. Especially noticeable as there's many more than in the first game, with a number of them required to progress through levels.
** Star City Raceway from one of the first game's expansions gives one to the Mach 101 in the form of the Mach 101 clone, which is the same vehicle but without weapons, which means no autojacks, no oil slick, and no homing rocket, making it a purely racing vehicle.
* NestedStoryReveal: After clearing Chapter 9 of Quest Mode, [[spoiler: it turns out that the first nine Chapters were a story that your character was telling, including him or her [[{{Handwave}} handwaving]] any errors in the story (such as one involving Cinnabar Island)]]. However, this still doesn't explain the [[{{Retcon}} retcon]] involving ''VideoGame/PokemonRanger'''s events occurring in accordance on what ''[=PPS1=]'' stated (since that game stated such events started late alongside that game's story, which begins after this story was told).
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler:As the player character obtains each of the Chaos Meteors, he or she has them sent to Prof. Oak's lab. Once all seven have been found, what do you think happens when the Meta Alliance is able to find out where they are?]]
* NoFairCheating: In Quest Mode, if you try to use a cheating device to reach an area that isn't accessible until a later chapter, the game will crash. This is because of how Adventure Map data is managed in the game, which means such data isn't added until the proper chapter.
* NoGearLevel: [[spoiler: The events leading to Kingdom Valley have Pokémon Hunter J take all your Pokémon]], stripping you of all Pokémon attacks and requiring you to get them back as you progress through the stage.
* NoOneGetsLeftBehind: Much like in the first game, if there are any friendly characters tagging along with you, you lose if so much as one of them gets their HP reduced to 0. This is especially noticeable in Quest Mode where you can have as many as seven people with you at one point and not even one of them is allowed to fall. You also can't let an Assist Character under human control get reduced to 0 HP either (having them fall under CPU control is fine, however).
** A lot of these cases are [[JustifiedTrope justified]], however, as a number of the characters you have to protect are ones that appear in both the first game and this game's main story, meaning that they are [[SavedByCanon meant to survive the events of Quest Mode]]. Others such as the Matfields and the Acoys show up multiple times in Quest Mode, meaning of they were to fall at one point in the game, it would mess up their later appearances.
* OminousFloatingSpaceship: The Rocket Armada 2's flagship.
** MileLongShip: It's also a supermassive ship, given that it's able to support [[HumongousMecha Regicolossus]], who stands ''a mile tall''.
* {{Railroading}}: This game's Quest Mode has several of these, with a noticeable one involving a minigame called Pokéringer, which can be done in Fortree City. A bit down the Route going east of Fortree City is a horde of invisible Kecleon, which you can't get past unless you have the Devon Scope. It turns out that the Devon Scope is the prize for placing first in the short tournament of Pokéringer, thus forcing you to partake in it at least once.
* {{Retcon}}: In ''[=PPS1=]'', when playing in The Forgotten City, it was brought up that the events of the first ''VideoGame/PokemonRanger'' had just begun. In Chapter 8 of this game's Quest Mode, the events of ''Pokémon Ranger'' have been retconned to having already transpired before the events of ''[=PPS1=]''.
** Another one occurs involving events from this game. While the events of said location still happened, by ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Endless Boundaries'', the location of the Hartache Ultra Building was retconned from being in Mandarin Island's main city to Stardust City.
* SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler: This is the fate of the Quest Mode character, as they end up becoming the only member of the mercenary troupe still alive towards the end of Chapter 9.]]
* StealthBasedMission: There are a couple instances of this in the game:
** In the first part of Cipher Hotel, you need to sneak past Cipher Peons in order to enter the hotel proper. Making this [[JustifiedTrope more justified]] is the fact that they carry flashlight-shaped weapons called Glare Guns, which stun you if you're caught in one, but if a Cipher Peon spots you, it's still possible to dodge and even fight them as long as you don't get caught by the Glare Gun. If you're caught, you'll be thrown in a cell-like area.
** In Chapter 3 of Quest Mode, in order to get to Kanto, since your passport initially isn't approved for entry into Kanto, you need to sneak past international border guards on Route 26 and Route 27, where if spotted, you'll be sent back to New Bark Town.
** There are two optional Quest Mode Missions arranged by the border guards to test your wits that you can try to clear, the Expert Level for Angel Island, and the Master Level for Cipher Key Lair.
* SuperDrowningSkills: Unlike in the first game, for some reason you can't swim unless you have an Intermediate Orb or Intermediate Diamond with you. Fortunately, this was removed in later games.
* TheStinger: [[spoiler: After the credits (unless you ended up fighting the King of Pokélantis or are playing as a specific character), you're treated to a scene in which your character comes to and turns out to have ended up in Blaze the Cat's home dimension.]]
* {{Unperson}}: ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' has a meta example involving Barry, Ethan, Lyra, and the Hearthome Collection, as all four of them basically don't exist as far as this game is concerned. Barry is replaced with a blatant SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute called Pearl, Ethan and Lyra are replaced with Jimmy and Marina in their ''HG/SS'' outfits, with the former two used as the names of imposters of the latter two, and the ''one'' time the Hearthome Collection is mentioned it's referred to as a non-existent competition brought up in a tabloid magazine, all three of these basically being a TakeThat to all four characters/events.
* WhereItAllBegan: The final optional mission in Quest Mode than can be unlocked is located in Angel Island, the first stage in the game, and consists of ''every non-boss enemy in the game''!
* WideOpenSandbox: Quest Mode happens to be a hugely expansive adventure that could qualify for a whole game in of itself, with 8 regions and a multitude of other locations to explore, Pokémon to catch and have battles using, action stages to play through, minigames to play, and more.
* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' [[spoiler: pulls this off no less than ''four'' times. First, after ''finally'' collecting all the Chaos Meteors and sending them to Prof. Oak's lab, it looks as though they're all safe and out of the Meta Alliance's hands, except that Pokémon Hunter J is sent to take them all back again and on top of that takes Oak, Tracey, and Knuckles as additional prizes, prompting the Squad to mount a massive assault on Team Rocket's colossal air fleet and [[WombLevel go inside Regicolossus]] to shut it down once and for all. But wait a minute, all the villains manage to evacuate to a gigantic Star City shuttle and head for space, so now you must climb said shuttle as it heads upward and eventually go through Team Draco's starbase, fight Dralene, and get the Chaos Meteors back. Okay, everything's all good again, except after unlocking the Final Episode, the villainous team leaders return, take the Chaos Meteors ''again'' and raise Pokélantis from the ground to the edge of space, and you must now get through said city, fight a possessed member of the Squad, and activate four temples. That's all accomplished, except that you've [[BatmanGambit played right into Meta Leader's hands]] and he decides to reveal his [[TheReveal true identity]], [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness turn on the other villains]], and use the Chaos Meteors to bring about the universe's end, requiring you now to go through a tangled dimensional mess, fight Sephiroth (Meta Leader's identity) and Metal Sonic fused together, then fight them fused with Regicolossus deep in the void. If you also grabbed the Arena Pass, this trope is done a ''fifth'' time, as you now find yourself having to fight the [[BonusBoss King of Pokélantis]] (although you don't have to necessarily win this one).]]
** Also, when playing in Expert Mode, [[spoiler: Draco Starbase Area 5 alone pulls this off three times. After defeating Dralene and re-collecting all the Chaos Meteors, you then have to fight Meta Leader himself, then after defeating him, you fight Dralene ''again'' in an even stronger craft and have to use the Chaos Meteors to fight her. After that's said and done, you need to safely make it back to Earth and make a splashdown in the Lake of Rage.]]
** In Optional Mission 1 for Flight 999 in Quest Mode, after making it so that Mr. Kincaid and his students don't come to harm for 10 minutes, you clear the mission, [[spoiler: except that you then find yourself on board the Cargo Ship where [[EvilAllAlong Mr. Kincaid reveals to you that he's Team Dim Sun's second in command]] and that you must now fight him (and you must fight him every time you seem to clear the mission) in order to truly clear the mission. Losing to him means that you must do the whole mission over. Note that this is the only time in the game that an Optional Mission throws you such a curveball.]]
* YouWannaGetSued: Red Mountain Optional Mission 1 in Quest Mode involves an entity that Buck refers to as the Red Ring of Doom. He explains that while he would call it something else, he'd get sued by the company behind a competing game system if he did. What Buck is referring to is the "Red Ring of Death" that plagued many an UsefulNotes/Xbox360.

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad 3]]

The third game in the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series, ''Pokémon Peace Squad 3'' continues the trend set by its predecessors while offering some new features. This time around, the story involves the Pokémon Peace Squad traveling to various countries around the world in order to get each Super Plate, powerful artifacts linked to [[{{God}} Arceus]], back from various villainous teams, who are being manipulated by Giovanni in order to further his greatest plan yet, one that will change not just this world but ''all'' worlds. With Team Rocket more active than ever, the Squad once again gets assistance from several characters from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' during their globetrotting adventures in order to stop Giovanni's scheme to use Arceus for his own ends before it's too late.\\
\\
''Pokémon Peace Squad 3'' is where the spinoffs stopped being episodic sagas, instead being released as full games, and the term "Episodes" was regulated to [[TheArtifact Artifact]] status. As a result, the size of this game is far less than its predecessor and lacks several of the massive features it had, such as Quest Mode and various additional modes. However, it introduces some things that have become staples in the ''PPS'' series, such as game hubs, [[BossOnlyLevel boss stages,]] and stages that occur in between Episodes rather than within them. In terms of gameplay, it follows ''VideoGame/SonicUnleashed'' and gives us two styles; speed and combat, although without actual [[UnexpectedGameplayChange gameplay changes]]. In addition, the game boasts a day/night system that not only changes how things operate in each hub, but also determine which stages you're able to play at the moment. When not playing the stages, you also have the option of taking part in several hub missions.\\
\\
''Pokémon Peace Squad 3'' at the time may have been intended to be the [[SeriesFauxnale last in the series]], but due to ideas the creator came up with that he couldn't ignore, the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series would end up [[FranchiseZombie continuing past its prime]] and despite this game's circumstances, the series would not be over.
----

''Pokémon Peace Squad'' is a series of fan-game ideas and descriptions created by [[http://sunflorazumarill.deviantart.com/ Sunflorazumarill]] and [[http://pokegym.net/forums/member.php?113-Carrington388 Carrington388]] of the site [[http://pokegym.net/ PokéGym]]. A spinoff series of games taking place in the world of ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', the series also is rich in elements from the ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' series and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' (not to mention several of the games also have ''Franchise/MegaMan'' elements, albeit to a lesser degree). Instead of being your typical ''Pokémon'' game, it takes its cues from the 3D Sonic games while also throwing in objectives that must be completed in each stage similar to ''[[VideoGame/GoldenEye1997 GoldenEye]]'' and ''VideoGame/PerfectDark''. The games themselves contain [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters a load of characters]] to play as, giving you tons of options on how to get through the game. The result is a vastly different experience from any other Pokémon game.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The ''PPS'' series is known for its '''immense''' roster of playable characters. With over a dozen dozen characters to choose from, have fun.

This is the game that started it all. Released as an episodic saga, it chronicles the first outing of the Pokémon Peace Squad, an organization founded by Professor Oak and managed by the various Pokémon League Champions. Taking dozens of well known (and [[AscendedExtra not-so-well known]]) Pokémon Trainers, Gym Leaders, and Elite Four members, the Squad's decree is to use their skill and might in order to vanquish evil and combat the ever increasing threats throughout the world. In their debut game, the Pokémon Peace Squad makes an effort to take down several villainous teams that have surfaced, each with their own goals in mind. Along the way, they also tangle with the military, who are shown to use less-than-noble tactics in order to apprehend bad guys themselves, and also encounter several Legendary Pokémon. With at least [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters 72 different characters]] to play as, the ways you can go about the game are possibly endless.\\

%%* LostWoods: Flora Carrier

%%* LostWoods: Sunset Forest, Mushroom Hill

%%* LostWoods: Botanic Highway, Flora Tree

%%* LostWoods: Stone Flower (Botanic Highway SP)

* LostWoods: [[spoiler: Perplex Paradise takes place inside an enormous biosphere containing a forest that Team Rocket plans on populating with Mega-Evolved Pokémon. In its Past version, the area is under construction, with the forest being prehistoric-like.]]

%%* LostWoods: Forest Highway, Flora Garden, [[spoiler: Aether Complex Act 2]], Mecha Viridian Forest

* LostWoods: Biotech Planet contains a futuristic variant in the form of Cybernetic Forest, which contains a large tower-like tree.

* '''Flora Cave''' is a combination of JungleJapes, LostWoods, TreeTopTown, and UndergroundLevel.

* [[spoiler: '''Technologic Palace''' is a combination of EternalEngine and TempleOfDoom, along with DeathMountain, LethalLavaLand, DownTheDrain, SlippySlideyIceWorld, JungleJapes, LostWoods, CrystalLandscape, and UndergroundLevel, with GravityScrew thrown in.]]

* '''Flora Carrier''' is JungleJapes, LostWoods, and PalmtreePanic, all contained within a CoolAirship.

* '''Flora Depths''' is a fusion of DownTheDrain, JungleJapes, and LostWoods.

* '''Draco Garden''' is a fusion of GravityScrew, LostWoods, and SpaceZone.

* [[spoiler: '''Perplex Paradise''' puts together LostWoods and UnderTheSea inside a biodome.]]

* '''Forest Highway''' fuses together EternalEngine, LethalLavaLand, and LostWoods.

* '''Flora Garden''' Act 1 fuses together LostWoods and ToweringFlower while Act 2 fuses together LostWoods and WombLevel.

* [[spoiler: '''Aether Complex''' is mainly a [[TomorrowLand futuristic base]] within an EldritchLocation, but Act 2 also consists of LostWoods and starting from partway through Act 3 becomes a WombLevel.]]

* Prison Militex Act 2 is as the name implies, a prison. As you navigate the stage, you pass by hundreds if not thousands of empty cage-like cells, with Prof. Kikui giving a grim idea of what happened to those that were held in them. It's not until the two-thirds point where you start to find people held within the cells, and they turn out to be people from all walks of life and various ages (from [[AdultFear children]] to elderly). This pretty much implies that the people held here were either sent to the factory as slave labor if not outright executed!

* FoeYay: [[invoked]] Some of Trixie's dialogue towards Samantha in various games suggest this. Not to mention one of her attacks when fighting her in ''[=PPS1=]'' and ''[=PPS2=]'' is blowing a kiss to Samantha. It also may be the other way around, too, as it seems Samantha has this with Trixie.

* ContinuitySnarl: While the first game has aspects of this, ''[=PPS2=]'' was especially bad about contradicting several elements from other things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''. What makes this worse was that these weren't due to things such as CriticalResearchFailure[[invoked]], but were deliberate as they were the result of ExecutiveMeddling[[invoked]]. Basically, such retcons were shoehorned into the game, in ways that they let you ''know'' they were being contradicted, tended to be brought up repeatedly, and there were even special missions whose underlying purpose was to further such things, with by far the biggest offender being Mission 2 for Death Yard, which ''explicitly'' refers to three actual events from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] as being rumors perpetrated by a tabloid magazine [[note]]More specifically, the three events cited as lies are Dawn catching a Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash, Brock, and Dawn meeting Aaron of the Sinnoh Elite Four.[[/note]].

While the Pokémon Peace Squad games are known for [[ContinuityNod making references]] to a myriad of things from the anime, no matter how minor, the earlier games also made [[ContinuitySnarl a large number of contradictions]] to various things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' for no discernible reason. The problem was, though, that these weren't a case of something like CriticalResearchFailure, but were in fact deliberately made by the [[ExecutiveMeddling person overseeing the games]] and while also present in the first game, they became especially bad come the second game. These contradict several events from the anime and sometimes border on InsaneTrollLogic and which the other person in charge of the games did not like, some of them even overriding what that person had established. The earlier ''PPS'' games have these contradictions shoehorned into the game at random points to make sure you know they're being contradicted (such as a character saying something that makes the contradiction), are sometimes brought up repeatedly, and there are even things such as [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Big-Lipped Alligator Moments]], [[BreakingTheFourthWall fourth wall-breaks]], and Special Missions whose underlying purpose is to further assert them and even go as far as to cite [[ExternalRetcon actual events from the anime as things like tabloid lies]]. In short, the meddling creator at times used the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games as [[AuthorTract a platform to assert these kinds of contradictions]] due to for whatever reason his dislike for such events or elements, regardless of how others thought of such things or any [[PlotHole Plot Holes]] and other errors they ended up creating. Making things worse, if someone (such as the other creator of the majority of the series) were to say otherwise or try to establish more accurate events in the games, the one behind these contradictions would ''further'' assert them. Example; if someone were to call him out on being wrong about something in ''Pokémon'', for instance, he would [[BelievingTheirOwnLies make the contradictions to their face]] and/or say ''they're'' wrong (which actually happened at least two times). Also, AlternateContinuity isn't a justifiable explanation here since this was before the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games experienced a ContinuityDrift as well as the fact that the person making the contradictions had them brought up in a way that basically said fans and also the franchise itself (like the core series games or the anime) are the ones wrong about such events, characters, or elements.

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad 2]]

The first full-on sequel to ''Pokémon Peace Squad'', ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' takes all the things that the first one gave us and takes them [[UpToEleven up to eleven]]. Another episodic saga, this time, the arrival of seven unusual crystalline meteors from space with some connection to the Chaos Emeralds prompts not just the Pokémon Peace Squad to start searching for them, but also all the villainous teams, [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Dr. Eggman]], and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII the Turks]], who have formed an organization of their own called the [[LegionOfDoom Meta Alliance]], led by the mysterious [[BigBad Meta Leader]]. On top of that, there's also the threat of a downright MASSIVE robot built to destroy the Pokémon Peace Squad to tangle with. With this new combined threat, the Squad already has their work cut out for them. The sequel adds in several new features, such as the option to now choose two Pokémon out of a pool of three (although some characters only get to choose one out of two), Pokémon now coming with helpful abilities, and two new stats in Health and Jump that help to further individualize each playable character, as well as doubling the number of playable characters from before and adding in faves such as Ash Ketchum and various movie characters, hidden boss fights, and much more.\\
\\
In addition to all this, there's also the game's Quest Mode, where you choose from one of several customizable Pokémon Trainer bases who joins a troupe of mercenaries that is the precursor to the Pokémon Peace Squad. Here, typical ''Pokémon'' RPG elements blend with ''PPS'' gameplay as you level yourself up, catch Pokémon you can use to not just get through stages but also have battle in traditional Pokémon matches, and fight the various villains causing trouble. You can even transfer Pokémon to and from various handheld games or use your Quest Mode character in Story Mode! In addition, you get to travel through not just all the well-known ''Pokémon'' regions ([[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Kanto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Johto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Hoenn]], and [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh]]), but also the [[Anime/PokemonTheOriginalSeries Orange Islands]], [[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Or]][[VideoGame/PokemonXDGaleOfDarkness re]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRanger Fiore, Almia]], various ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' locations, Star City, and even ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' landmarks! It's like playing a whole other game.\\
\\
A lot of the other additional flair that the first game had also returns for this, such as several extra stages you can play, an expanded multiplayer mode, tons of minigames you and your friends can partake in, being able to take part in simulated gambling, a race mode with a ton of different styles of racing, a small-but cool fighting game, a massive collectible card system with so many things ''Pokémon'', ''Sonic'', and ''Final Fantasy'', and a number of other hidden features you can access. Due to the '''immense''' size of this game, it marks the return of the three-disc format that games such as ''Final Fantasy VII'' were known for, and there is more than enough content packed in this game to last a lifetime and there may always be something new for you to discover.
----

* Lost Woods: [[spoiler: Perplex Paradise takes place inside an enormous biosphere containing a forest that Team Rocket plans on populating with Mega-Evolved Pokémon. In its Past version, the area is under construction, with the forest being prehistoric-like.]]

** Ruby Cavern is a gigantic ice cave with crystalline pillars as well as large Red Ice formations that you'll need to use Blue Fire to melt.

* DiscOneFinalDungeon: [[spoiler: Rocket Fortress gives off the feeling of being the final set of stages due to it being the supersized ship that is the focus of the game's story, and would be the case if it weren't for Team Crystal hijacking the plot after Giovanni's defeat.]]

* ItsAllUpstairsFromHere: Magma Tower is a metallic tower filled with lava and at times pipes where you'll make your way upward while sinking the tower area by area. [[spoiler: At one point, Tabitha sinks the part of the tower you're in, [[RiseToTheChallenge forcing you to quickly make your way up]].]]

* JungleJapes: Tropic Factory as a whole is this plus EternalEngine, being giant factories located in the jungle, with hazards such as conveyor belts, sawblades, large tubes, and Mega Mack pools intertwining with the natural plant-life.

* LethalLavaLand: Vulcan Castle as a whole is a huge ruin found in a volcanic area consisting of lava lakes and hazards in addition to both earthy landmasses and ancient structures.

* RuinsForRuinsSake: Flora Plant (Past) is very different from its Present incarnation, being a cavern-based ruin that replaces all the machinery with ancient mechanisms and both kinds of Mega Mack with pools of blue and green-color water.

* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Aurora Glacier as whole is a cold and snowy place consisting of various ice-based levels where you first meet Team Crystal, who play an important role later in the game.
* SpaceZone: Cosmic Expanse as a whole consists of a series of abandoned structures in space that have been discovered by Team Draco.

* UnderwaterBase: Aqua Zone is a massive base with giant areas containing small lakes of water. There are switches that cause some pools to teleport away or in, including some that do this automatically.

* BleakLevel: Flare Station has a dark atmosphere to it, mainly due to the sky station being located near and within a thundercloud. Its past version is just as foreboding.

* ConstructionZoneCalamity: Pinball Paradise (Past) is similar to its present stage, but under construction with skeletal buildings found throughout the city.

* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Aqua Zone (Past) is similar to its present incarnation, except it's located in a series of caverns with some giant windows showing the ocean floor.

* EternalEngine: Tropic Factory as a whole is this combined with JungleJapes, consisting of factories built by Team Rocket that Team Flora has taken over, with a bunch of machinery, transport tubes, and pools of Mega Mack strewn throughout.

* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler: Prof. Freonia, who has been assisting you and Prof. Oak throughout the game, turns out to have been Team Crystal's leader the whole time in order to get her hands on what she needed for the Time Freeze System; which includes the Mewtwo, Diancie, [=MechaMew2=], and Metal Sonic.]]

* FloatingContinent: Megime City is a spectacular domed city floating in the sky in the past. It ended up falling due to a major catastrophe 100 years ago, [[spoiler: which turns out to have been caused by Prof. Freonia in her attempts to save it]]. [[spoiler: In the present, Team Rocket found its ruins and transformed it into the Rocket Fortress.]]

[[folder: Pokémon Peace Squad Ultra Revival]]

''Pokémon Peace Squad Ultra Revival'' is the ninth game in the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' spinoff series ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' and for the Nintendo Switch. The game returns to the roots of the first three games with several of its mechanics, such as being a fully 3D game as opposed to being [[TwoAndAHalfD 3D with 2D sections]], a difficulty more in line with the first ''PPS'' games, and giving the villains a bit more of a role in the game's story rather than just being there, not to mention trying to make the game more story driven than some of the [[ExcusePlot last entries in the series]]. Basically, it's a [[ArcWords revival]] of the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series.\\
\\
The story is that while the Squad is on a routine mission that involves liberating a small town from [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Team Skull]], a mysterious portal opens up in the sky, sending multiple scores of mysterious interdimensional creatures down below, which quickly begin wreaking havoc everywhere, and this happens to the rest of the world. Unfortunately, the creatures have the upper hand and [[FromBadToWorse making things worse]], something prevents the world's Pokéballs and weapons from working, allowing them to be victorious! It's revealed that these beasts were brought into this world by none other than [[BigBad Giovanni]], leader of Team Rocket, who thanks to these creatures, named Ultra Beasts, has managed to [[TakeOverTheWorld make the world his]]! Giovanni gives the world two options, [[SadisticChoice surrender or perish]], and gives the [[WeCanRuleTogether other villainous teams this option as well]]. However, the Pokémon Peace Squad won't take this lying down and vow to not only free the world from Giovanni's grasp, but also deal with any other bad guys that plan on using the Ultra Beasts for their own ends.\\
\\
The game offers a number of new features in the game, one being that stages are now split into two parts, dubbed [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog acts]], and tend to involve environment changes to make the stages more interesting in level design. In addition, the player character is also able to collect Z-Crystals and use them to unleash devastating [[SpecialAttack Z-Moves]].\\
\\
A year after its release, a DLC expansion for the game was released, called ''Pokémon Peace Squad: Ultra Revival Aftermath'', which takes place before and after the main game. It involves nine stages spanning three episodes and in addition brings in new Ultra Beasts as foes, a plot revolving around [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon the Ultra Recon Squad and Necrozma]], some new playable characters, and also an alternate take on the endgame.
----

** Twilight Boardwalk is a large amusement that's been abandoned and is now crawling with Ghost-type Pokémon, made more apparent with a haunted house attraction that contains a Gigantamaxed Gengar.

* EternalEngine: Volcanic Plant, Thermal Factory, and Maximum Fortress Area 3 are all stages that have an industrial setting that also combine things with LethalLavaLand.

* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Being located in Ice Metropolis, Aurora Valley, Crystal Reactor are both frigid areas involving snow and ice. The Subzero Depths area of Aurora Valley, the lowest area in the stage, is so cold that you have a limited time before the intense cold does you in. In addition, the cold prevents ranged Fire-type attacks from working, makes melee Fire-attacks hit as Normal-type ones, and also prevents all burning effects from working.

** Parthenon Maze has a couple of these, such as Materia Temple, which was built to honor the spirits brought forth by the Summon Materia, the Ancient Catacombs, and the Shrine of the Cetra.

** Hovering Highway takes place is Larousse City, which gives off a futuristic feel with its hovercar traffic, supertall skyscrapers, and roads formed by block robots.

* BigBoosHaunt[=/=]DownInTheDumps: Robotic Graveyard is an unsettling stage built out of the remains of every Team Rocket mech from the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries anime]] and various boss mechs from the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' series itself. Mountains of scrapped robots and more fill the area and there are pools of scrap that can [[QuicksandSucks suck you under]].

* PlotCoupon: MAX Crystals happen to be this, with several of them placed in each stage in various ways, such as held by human enemies, contained inside robotic foes, rewards for clearing challenges and solving puzzles, and hidden in the stages themselves. MAX Crystals will be used to open up later Episodes in the game.

* Floating Continent:

* [[spoiler: Battle City is a metropolis floating above the clouds that rises higher and higher with each Battle Facility you clear, eventually reaching the edge of space.]]

** Green Hillside is a coastal city located in Green Hill that consists of coastline buildings, checker-patterned landmasses, and beaches that line the ocean.

The various levels and settings are what form the core of the ''Pokémon Peace Squad'' games, with almost every kind of level being used at least once (although parts of this stems from the creator's compulsive usage of level tropes).

[[AC:Hailfire Peaks]]

The Pokémon Peace Squad series has tons of examples of [[HailfirePeaks this trope]], enough to justify having its own separate area.

[[folder: [=PPS1=] Examples]]

** Believing or supporting the assertion that ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' takes place 50 years after ''VIdeoGame/SonicAdventure2'' is also a good way to get flamed by fans as well as ''[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]'' fans, given that it would be impossible for such a thing to be true since such characters would have to be really old.

%%Please add context to ALL these examples and then put them alongside the othr tropes in proper alphabetical order. Thank you in advance!

''Pokémon Peace Squad MAX'' has [[DevelopmentHell unfortunately been delayed]] due to factors such as other projects and at times lack of motivation, but the creator hopes to finish it one day. To compensate for this, a demo containing three levels and a boss has been released, each containing a good amount of exploration and MAX Crystals as a taste of what is to come.

* ContinuityNod: After clearing Episode 1, if you're playing as Ash, he brings up having [[Anime/{{Pokemon2000}} been called the Chosen One]], [[Anime/PokemonJirachiWishMaker meeting a Pokémon that can grant wishes]], and [[Anime/PokemonGiratinaAndTheSkyWarrior exploring a strange reverse dimension]].

** "X is a tabloid lie." [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of the creators of the earlier games had a nasty habit of deliberately contradicting some things ''Pokémon'' through various means, the most infamous being Special Mission 2 of Death Yard in the second game having you collect issues of an infamous tabloid known for spreading lies and rumors about various things and giving three examples of such lies, all three of them being actual events from the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]]. Is sometimes used to refer to something contradicted by the ''PPS'' games, an UrbanLegendOfZelda [[invoked]] that's untrue, something in ''Pokémon'' rendered [[CanonDiscontinuity non-canon]], or something in ''Pokémon'' [[FanonDiscontinuity fans wish was]].[[/labelnote]]

In addition to all this, there's also the game's Quest Mode, where you choose from one of several customizable Pokémon Trainer bases who joins a troupe of mercenaries that is the precursor to the Pokémon Peace Squad. Here, typical ''Pokémon'' RPG elements blend with ''PPS'' gameplay as you level yourself up, catch Pokémon you can use to not just get through stages but also have battle in traditional Pokémon matches, and fight the various villains causing trouble. You can even transfer Pokémon to and from various handheld games or use your Quest Mode character in Story Mode! In addition, you get to travel through not just all the well-known ''Pokémon'' regions ([[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Kanto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Johto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Hoenn]], and [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh]]), but also the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Orange Islands]], [[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Or]][[VideoGame/PokemonXDGaleOfDarkness re]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRanger Fiore, Almia]], various ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' locations, Star City, and even ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' landmarks! It's like playing a whole other game.\\

* ContinuitySnarl: While the first game has aspects of this, ''[=PPS2=]'' was especially bad about contradicting several elements from other things ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''. What makes this worse was that these weren't due to things such as CriticalResearchFailure[[invoked]], but were deliberate as they were the result of ExecutiveMeddling[[invoked]]. Basically, such retcons were shoehorned into the game, in ways that they let you ''know'' they were being contradicted, tended to be brought up repeatedly, and there were even special missions whose underlying purpose was to further such things, with by far the biggest offender being Mission 2 for Death Yard, which ''explicitly'' refers to three actual events from the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] as being rumors perpetrated by a tabloid magazine [[note]]More specifically, the three events cited as lies are Dawn catching a Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash, Brock, and Dawn meeting Aaron of the Sinnoh Elite Four.[[/note]].

** An episode of the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] also coincidentally involved the Mirror World.

** Sho, the Raichu Trainer from the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] episode "Pika and Goliath", who was last heard being taken to Prison Island X in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'', is back, now a part of Team Skull and with an Alolan Raichu.

** Special Mission 2 for Death Yard in ''Pokémon Peace Squad 2'' decided to label the events of three episodes from the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] (Dawn catching Swinub, the Hearthome Collection, and Ash meeting Sinnoh Elite Four member Aaron) as lies perpetrated by the tabloid magazine K-Zone. This is upsetting to fans not only because it's an outright "justification" for contradicting those events by saying "Everything ''Pokémon'' told you about x is wrong!", but it also opens up the possibility of anything else contradicted by the ''PPS'' games can be construed as a tabloid lie as well.
