* AbortedArc: At the end of "Your Destiny in Your Hands" Shockaract was shown to have survived his supposed death from PowerDegeneration and was offered a position on Squadron X. However, the group hasn't been seen or mentioned since, and Shockaract has only appeared again once as a Biskrealm NPC.

* LegendOfChekhov: If a rumor or conspiracy theory is every brought up, it's most likely going to be revealed to be true. Even when multiple conflicting theories come up, one of them is accurate.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Megatron convinces many of the future Decepticons to follow him by having them come to a gladiatorial arena to watch him fight one of the most experienced competitors... and win.

* SuperpowerLottery: There are a wide variety of talents available for Cybertronians. The best, however, are Ultima talents. They are the strongest version of a talent available, and those who possess them are incredibly effective at what they do. This includes [[WorldsSmartestMan Shockwave]] and [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority Overload]].

* CrossoverPowerAcquisition: The Omnitrix from ''{{Franchise/Ben 10}}'' includes a Cybertronian genetic sample, allowing Omnitrix users with it available to become a Transformer.
** [[spoiler: Great Convoy's trump card is his own Omnitrix device, giving him the powers of various Ben 10 aliens.]]

* EnemyWithout: Rampage's clone Shockaract has a personality identical to Unit 10. That being said, he isn't Unit 10 himself, as Shockaract's goal is to permenantly awaken that side of Rampage, and does bring him out once.

* EvilKnockoff: Seversal of the clones Jhiaxus made were copies of heroes and academy students, and they willingly joined the Decepticons.

* TheJuggernaut: King Atlas, the top enforcer of the Neo-Maximals. [[ImmuneToBullets He can shrug off blaster fire]], he can stand at ground zero of an oil drum explosion and [[InfernalRetaliation walk out while still on fire]], and when [[RammingAlwaysWorks a ship crashes onto him]], he just lifts it off him. The only way Bthe students were able to stop him was by returning him to the future, [[spoiler: and it takes [[ReducedToDust atomizing him]] to put him down for good]].
** His leader, Great Convoy, is even stronger. The first time he steps onto the battlefield himself, Great is victim of a successful AttackOnTheHeart. ''And he survives.'' And he has so many different powers he can easily find some way to defeat his opponents, even winning against ten at once. [[spoiler: However, he was eventually stuck with having to give up his healing abilities, and this led to his body getting vaporized. Even if that didn't kill him, [[RetGone erasing the timeline he came from certainly did]].]]

* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: Besides the obvious ''{{Franchise/Transformers}}'', the Autobot Academy universe also incorperates characters and elements from ''{{Franchise/Ben 10}}'', ''{{Franchise/Doctor Who}}'', ''{{WesternAnimation/Invader Zim}}'', ''{{WesternAnimation/Steven Universe}}'', ''WesternAnimation/ChallengeOfTheGobots'', ''{{Franchise/Star Trek}}'', ''ComicBook/RomSpaceKnight'', ''{{Franchise/Zoids}}'', ''Toys/BusouShinki'', ''Anime/FrameArmsGirls'', ''Toys/MegamiDevice'', ''{{Franchise/Ultra Series}}'', ''WesternAnimation/LegendsOfChima'', ''{{Toys/Bionicle}}'', ''{{Franchise/Godzilla}}'', ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', ''{{Franchise/Gundam}}'', ''{{WesternAnimation/Visionaries}}'', ''Literature/WarOfTheWorlds'', ''{{Manga/TerraforMARS}}'', ''Anime/AldnoahZero'', ''{{Literature/Animorphs}}'', ''Series/MetalHeroes'' ''{{Franchise/Alien}}'', ''{{Franchise/Predator}}'', ''{{Franchise/Metroid}}'', ''{{Franchise/DC Comics}}'', ''{{Franchise/Marvel Comics}}'', ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'', ''VideoGame/SonicColors'', ''{{TabletopGame/Twilight Imperium}}'', ''ComicStrip/BuckRogers'', ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'', ''{{Film/Avatar}}'', and ''{{VideoGame/Destiny}}''.

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Bisk's talent makes reality like a video game, but it only affected his immediate surroundings. This made him be seen as a joke by Autobots and is only a minor thug in the Decepticons. But after getting his talent upgraded by Shockwave, Bisk is elevated to full on RealityWarper, and in "Sinister Simulation" he turns the entire world into a video game realm that he has full control over, with himself as the final boss.

* PrecrimeArrest: [[Artillery tells Beta Maxx that he should prevented the Siege of Acadeimos by killing Megatron as a sparkling to prevent him from forming the Decepticons. Beta Maxx is disgusted by the idea.]]

** The second was Great Convoy's original identity. His body was [[MythologyGag drawn to resemble]] Anime/TransformersCybertron Megatron's, and this story's Megatron has been known to regularly switch bodies. When he finally showed up in person, he beat his opponents by switching between their own powers, implying that he had Megatron's PowerCopying ability. Ultimately, this isn't the case; Great Convoy killed Megatron, and his talents [[spoiler: were the result of him using Talent Medallions, not any special ability of his own. However, the real answer to this question was never provided.]]

* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: The reason Beta Maxx travelled back from the future to the present day is to stop the Siege of Acadeimos from happening, which ultimately led to the BadFuture he comes from. [[spoiler: While he fails, his mission was completed by a group of students he befriended, who manage to make the battle turn out far better than it did in the original timeline.]]

** Elita-1 has had even fewer appearances than [=MixMatch=], but her presence is felt throughout the series. [[spoiler: She provided Hot Shot and Megatron with their talents, took the Matrix of Light from Sentinel Prime to give to Star convoy, and was responsible for the rise of talents in Cybertronian society.]]

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Great Convoy ultimately wants a peaceful society for his people and end the ViciousCycle of wars Cybertron has experienced. However, his methods of doing so involve keeping Cybertron as isolated as possible, preemptively driving species that could pose a threat to extinction, keeping his subjects in check with a massive army of war machines, and brainwashing or killing anyone who stands up to him.

* WorldsSmartestMan: Thanks to having the talent Intellect Ultima, Shockwave is the smartest being on Cybertron. He may even be the smartest being in the ''galaxy'' with the only notable contender for that title being Azmuth.

** [[spoiler: However, this ends up coming back to bite Great Convoy. While the form he uses as a default is a BlobMonster hybrid that gives him an ''extremely'' effective HealingFactor, he has to use a different one to try and restore his timeline. This means that when he gets shot in chest, he doesn't have the powers required to heal from it.]]

* {{Fainting}}: Hot Shot does this to Star Convoy, possibly due to the sheer shock of meeting his idol. If Firestar's reaction to the news of him attending Autobot Academy is any indication, ItRunsInTheFamily.

* DiscardAndDraw: Great Convoy has a wide selection of superpowers thanks to [[spoiler: his stockpile of Talent Chips]]. Even without these, he has the [[AmplifierArtifact Matrix of Light]], which greatly increases his natural abilities. But when he removes the Matrix from his chest, Great has an even greater trick up his sleave: [[spoiler: an Omnitrix that lets him use the powers of a wide array of alien species.]]

** His leader, Great Convoy, is even stronger. The first time he steps onto the battlefield himself, Great is victim of a successful AttackOnTheHeart. ''And he survives.'' In fact, he has so many ways to survive fatal wounds that [[spoiler: the only way to successfully kill him was [[RetGone erasing the timeline he came from]].]]
