** Red's first opponent in the preliminaries is a trainer with a Beedrill and a Sandslash. The guy trained the Sandslash to NoSell Water-Type attacks. Not only this is a nod to A.J. from the anime, the trainer also looks like A.J. ''and'' is named Akira, A.J.'s Japanese name.

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Blue, during her battle with Skyla, is clearly distinct from Green's AwesomenessByAnalysis or Red's HotBlooded full-force attacks, by taking strange or embarrassing tactics (using Cute Charm and Substitute); showboating; comparing the battle to Poke-Star Studios' Movies... and yet, Skyla sees through her giddy excitement to see a trainer who absolutely knows what she is doing.

* TakingUpTheMantle: Several characters among the pokemon have this reaction to [[spoiler: Raticate's]] death.
** Pikachu, who had created the SignatureMove Volt Tackle in order to keep up with its Quick Attack, wills itself to continue growing in strength to honour their rivalry.
** Eevee, who was so close to it that it entirely lost its ability to battle after the loss, [[spoiler: eats the berries kept as an offering]] to symbolically imbibe its famous fighting spirit. Its bounding attack across the [[spoiler: Reflects during the Skyla battle is even a visual CallBack to Rattata's motion while battling Pikachu!]]
** Arcanine, the fastest Growlithe Green could find, creates the SignatureMove Extreme Speed.

*** Even afterwards, he resembles the Anime's [[StockShonenHero Ash]]... until [[spoiler: his battle with Team Rocket]]. Going through that kind of danger at a young age, seeing his pokemon horribly hurt, considering himself the same kind of monster as [[spoiler: Giovanni]], who hurt his partners for his own ends... it clearly devastated the young boy.

Added DiffLines:

* ShrineToTheFallen: Lavender Tower in general, as in the games. More specifically, Blue finds [[spoiler: [[HeartbrokenBadass Green's]] Raticate's photograph in a frame with offerings there]].
* SlasherSmile: Karen's Umbreon often breaks into one during battle. Its awkward [[spoiler: bow to the audience]] after the match implies that this is just how it smiles now. That unnaturally wide jaw, those sharp teeth and eyes - you can see why its original trainer [[spoiler: thought it could not be their old eevee and abandoned it]].

** One of the inciting incidents that spurs Red to want to take a journey rather than living contentedly in Pallet Town is seeing Mew, much like in PokemonAdventures.

* PatchworkFic: It's mostly based on the games, but a few elements of the story borrow from the anime.
** Though he maintains his game counterpart's high degree of competence, Red's overall personality and treatment is quite similar to Ash, being outgoing and passionate if a bit erratic.
** Red has been associated with Pikachu since the days of ''Yellow'', but their bond in the story borrows quite a bit from the anime, such as them starting off rough due to Pikachu's bad attitude and ultimately bonding after a rough night in Viridian Forest.
** Red has a Butterfree on his team, which is all but stated to be the first Pokemon he caught. This is definitely the case for Ash, but Red has never shown any signs of owning a Butterfree in canon, and it's the only thing on his team here that isn't in some way a starter or a storyline encounter.
** Misty is a significant character with a relatively close relationship with Red, mirroring Misty's importance in the first few seasons of the anime.
