** In ''Sugar Cannon'', Foodtopia is populated by all sorts of living food characters, including creatures called Flavor Sprites.
** ''Gummi Squadron!!!'' also focuses on food-themed beings like the titular gummis.



* {{Doppelganger}}: Half of the ''Fantendo Sports Resort'' roster is made up of these.



* ItWillNeverCatchOn: The wiki's founder did not have high hopes for how long it would last, expecting it to languish within months. Users were still worried about the "end of Fantendo" in mid-2009, just two years after its creation and at less than a twelfth as many articles as it would have a decade later. Though Fantendo's popularity is [[DownplayedTrope debatable]], it has managed to speak to new generations of fans and creatives for far longer than forecasted.

* AlternateContinuity: It became common to make alternate Fantendoverses after the resurgence caused by the New Fantendoverse. Examples include the Dualverse, Medieverse, Pyroverse, and the What-Ifs? art series. Many are [[JustifiedTrope justified]] by the Shattering having fractured the original Fantendoverse into multiple new universes.



* AmicableExes: Unten and Kiva Glaive had a brief romance before Glaive left to find a way to defeat Doomulus Grime. They seem to have parted on good terms, as Kiva refers to them as old friends.



* BirthdayBuddies: Unten and Nebuel Tzunn Chadnezzar share a birthday.
* BirthdayEpisode: The story ''Happy Birthday, Unten!'' is this for [[BirthdayBuddies both]] Unten and new character Nebuel Tzunn Chadnezzar, who crashes the former's party.

* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: Unten was initially shown as a disembodied head. Early art that gave him a full body could be inconsistent, with one design recoloring a Yoshi from the neck down. This one is occasionally called back to or reworked into a dinosaurian SuperMode.

* AerithAndBob: A mix of common and unusual names was bound to emerge, especially in crossovers like the Fantendoverse. As early as the original ''Fantendo Smash Bros.'', fighter names range from Adam, to [[NumericalThemeNaming 4.13]], to Tango the Llama Lord.



* AprilFoolsDay: Has been observed since 2010 or earlier. Pranks usually involve changing the wiki's theme, ranging from [[SensoryAbuse bright, clashing color palettes]] to unsolicited ProductPlacement for [[Advertising/CapnCrunch cereal]].



* ArtificialLimbs: Doomulus Zharpine, the eighth community character, has mechanically enhanced limbs that allow them to disassemble their body and remotely control the parts.



* BigBad: In the Fantendoverse, The Enemy serves the antagonist role at first, then The Threat.

** Users have created articles for at least thirty [[{{Franchise/Pokemon}} Pokémon]] types since 2014. Many of them play up the existing weirdness of the type system, finding increasingly specific or redundant niches. The ideas progress from [[BlowYouAway Wind]], [[LightIsGood Light]], and Gas, through concepts like [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Demon]], Quartz, and [[CleanlinessTropes Clean]] types. At the time of writing, the list culminates in the [[BunnyTropes Bunny]] type in 2021, which retypes all vaguely lagomorph-themed Pokémon and Cinderace's signature move.



* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: As the [=DynamicPageList=] extension is in relatively minor use, the category system is built around this. It's common for editors to add sequences of categories like "2D Games, Platforming Games, 2D Platforming Games". Some of the involved categories even have dedicated [[AchievementSystem achievement]] tracks set up.



* {{Continuation}}: Just about every sufficiently well-known Nintendo series has attracted ideas for new games. In addition to new plot ideas, many users describe new mechanics and features to brainstorm how the series can carry on and evolve from a gameplay perspective. Popular games like ''[[VideoGame/SuperMarioOdyssey Super Mario Odyssey]]'' garner lots of focused story expansions. Fandom's page popularity rankings tend to skew toward these, as other fans search for unannounced sequels and find Fantendo articles in lieu of game news. Continuations for a specific work may be listed on a category page, or rarely, a "canon game" article created as a directory for this content.



* EnemyMine: Across continuities, Doomulus Grime generally serves as a villain for [[TheChosenOne Unten]] and [[DoomedHometown his planet]]. The ''Fantendo Now'' episode "A Flash Beorn Our Eyes" called for Unten and Grime to team up to escape their marooning on a distant planet.



* GratuitousGreek: Fantendoverse Tau, intended to be the new era of the Fantendoverse, was named after the Greek letter τ and sometimes spelled with it.
* GreatOffscreenWar: The New Fantendoverse has limited information on a background event called "The [[PaletteSwap Recolor]] War", which involved characters with recolored designs being killed or exiled to the Wasteland.



* LongTitle: Unten's home series is usually called ''That One Series With a Long and Uninteresting Name That I Do Not Wish to Remember''.



* MonsSeries: With the ubiquitous popularity of--and perhaps controversy around--the ''[[{{Franchise/Pokemon}} Pokémon]]'' games, many users have been inspired to come up with original Mon-centered games and [[DerivativeDifferentiation distinguish]] them with wanted gameplay features. ''Kotomo'' is one original series in the genre.
* OverlyLongGag: For its page quote, the article on ''That One Series With a Long and Uninteresting Name That I Do Not Wish to Remember'' opens with Mondo prattling on about the series without managing to explain much. The ensuing WallOfText can easily fill smaller screens.



* RageBreakingPoint: Several protagonistic characters have been described as friendly and well-liked most of the time, but completely consumed by rage when the last straw is broken. This characterization quirk does not seem to affect their reputations.
