Added DiffLines:

* CruelCoyotes: Were-coyotes are notoriously anti-social and can't live in groups larger than two or three because of the constant infighting and tendency towards vicious backstabbing. The other were-communities do their best to completely avoid were-coyotes because of the pure chaos and destruction they can cause. There is a season long plot about Malia (a wolf-coyote were-hybrid) being in danger of being murdered by her full blooded were-coyote mother who believes that giving birth to Malia cost her some of her were-power and killing the girl is the only way to reclaim it.

Added DiffLines:

* SeekingUltimateStrength: Several characters are heavily focused on gaining as much power as quickly as possible.
** Peter Hale murders his niece in order to steal her Alpha spark, then begins biting teenagers in an attempt to gain the power boost of having multiple betas. His ultimate goal is to be strong enough to take on the family of hunters who killed his pack.
** Gerard Argent schemes not only to be turned into a werewolf but also plans to then immediately kill Derek, so that he'll be the Alpha in control of the Beacon Hills territory. He would then be the ultimate hunter, strong as a supernatural creature with the skill of a trained soldier.
** Jennifer Blake attempts a complicated three-fold, five-fold, seven-fold human sacrifice spell in an attempt to control the Nemeton, a power well with enough magic to take on the immensely powerful Alpha pack. Her black magic rituals that result in nearly fifteen murders changes her from a peaceful druid to a dreaded darach.
** The Alpha pack goes around convincing werewolves to slaughter their whole pack. When a werewolf slaughters an Alpha they become the Alpha, an immense power-up. If they then kill all the pack betas, they gain the power of those betas. The Alphas then become a pack, strengthening each other through pack bonds. Deucalion, the Alpha of Alphas, also kills Ennis, a member of the Alpha pack, granting him all of Ennis' stored power. The average Alpha would struggle against a member of the Alpha pack. The average beta doesn't stand a chance.

* WrongBathroomIncident:
** PlayedForLaughs in a very unusual way, as the Wild Hunt is taking over Beacon Hills and the leader is using TeleportSpam to keep the heroes from working together to stop him (and the heroes are about the only people left), Scott and Stiles finally reunite.
-->'''Stiles''': Finally saw the girls' locker room. Not that different, it's kind of disappointing.
** {{Inverted|Trope}} in "Echo House" when Stiles goes into the male locker room and [[ShowerOfAwkward finds Malia showering there]]. She actually has to point out to him he hasn't accidentally wandered into the female locker room, she just likes using the male one to shower because the water there is hotter. It doesn't stop making him feel like he's an AccidentalPervert, especially since she's a ShamelessFanserviceGirl who doesn't care about him seeing her naked.

Cool Loser TRS cleanup, has been renamed to Unconvincingly Unpopular Character and is a YMMV audience reaction.


** Allison gets one when she refuses to go to a party with [[{{JerkJock}} Jackson]] and [[{{AlphaBitch}} Lydia]] but goes with [[{{CoolLoser}} Scott]] instead.

* InvisibleParents: Largely averted, as Mama Mccall, Sheriff Stilinski and Chris Argent are all well-developed characters and frequently work with their children to combat the supernatural. Kira's parents join their ranks in Season 3, and even Lydia's mom becomes more involved in her life. Played straight with Erica and Boyd's parents who are never mentioned even when their kids undergo obvious physical transformations and spend their nights training with Derek in an underground subway.

* WomanWereWoes: Joked about, even as it seems female werewolves don't actually suffer any additional consequences or stigma from male werewolves. When [[spoiler:Peter]] talks about having bitten Lydia to Stiles, and thus Lydia possibly turning into a werewolf, Stiles notes that once a month she might try and rip his throat out. [[spoiler:Peter]] shrugs and says "Well, since she's a woman. . . twice a month." Later, Derek informs his newly-bitten wolf Erica, on the night of the full moon, "you're going to want to kill anything you can find." Erica quips back "Good thing I had my period last week, then."



** [[spoiler: Tamora Monroe posed as a guidance counselor at Beacon Hills High School to try and gain information on who was supernatural in the student body. When chaos finally errupted in the school she had all students tested by her protegeés by having their hands cut to see if they would heal. If they did she'd have them killed. She also shot at Brett in order to kill him.]]

New trope, lists this series as having an example. From the quote given, I think the already-listed Metaphorically True is much more accurate. Putting it in comments for now, if anyone who knows anything about the series beyond "it's listed in the new trope" would like to weigh in.

Added DiffLines:

%% * LyingByOmission A lot of the lies and half-truths that Scott and Stiles of ''Series/TeenWolf'' have been using to hide the werewolves would fall into this category. Stiles even gets caught in an ExplainExplainOhCrap moment by his father when the alibis start blending together.
%% -->'''Sheriff Stilinski:''' "So you lied to me?"
%% -->'''Stiles:''' "That depends on how you define lying."
%% -->'''Sheriff Stilinski:''' "Well, I define it as not telling the truth, how do you define it?"
%% -->'''Stiles:''' "Pff...reclining your body in a horizontal position."
