Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]s in ''[[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]'' include:
* Butch, a member of ''[[Pokémon]]'''s [[Terrible Trio|Team Rocket]], will not take happily [[My Name Is Not Durwood|someone butchering (no pun intended) his name.]] Some examples include Botch, Bob, Bill, Biff, Buffy (seriously), and a variety of other names (except the obvious one). In Japanese, the mistake is always Kosanji (instead of Kosaburo).
** Yes, it's a [[Running Gag]]. Yes, there was a time someone (specifically, Cassidy) got his name right. Yes, [[Crowning Moment of Funny|he yelled at her for mispronouncing his name on instinct.]]
Line 5 ⟶ 7:
* Apparently, some time during the Hoenn arc Team Rocket got the funny idea to steal food destined for the "twerps." They soon learned that this is the very thing that turns normally Type-B [[Tsundere]] May into a bona-fide killbot. [http://www.serebii.net/anime/pictures/shinou/544ps6.shtml They try this again during the Sinnoh arc, and yes, she is in attendance, as these pics prove]. They just didn't learn...
* Ash used to get ''really'' pissed off when someone stole his hat (Indigo League series). He's [[Character Development|mellowed out about it recently]].
** Ash's other berserk button is if anyone harms/kidnaps/insults Pikachu. Cases in point: Pikachu got kidnapped by Hunter J and [
** Ash also does not take kindly to anyone who [[Nobody Calls Me Chicken|calls him a coward]]. One of Ash's stand-out traits is his [[Fearless Fool|unwavering bravery]]. The most notable instance of this button being pushed was when he was {{spoiler|under [[Grand Theft Me|the possession of the King of Pokelantis]] and the Pyramid King Brandon called him a coward, instantly getting a reaction from Ash, momentarily breaking the evil king's [[Brainwashing]] influence.}} It is played with in many fanfiction stories.
* If someone deliberately harms Ash, then EVERY every one of his Pokémon will pounce on you, ''hard''. The [[Team Rocket]] trio, being the [[Chew Toy]] group that they are, managed to do such a thing just at the right moment that ''Charizard'' had finally learned to respect (and care for) his trainer (''Charizard Chills,'' episode 105). ''VERY OUCH'' for them.
** And just as ouch when they did it in front of his [[Brought Down to Normal|then-depowered]] Sceptile. The mon was so pissed off at them ''almost throwing Ash off their globe'' that it regained all of its power out of sheer hot-bloodness, rescued Ash and Pikachu and blasted TR like whoa.
* Another Berserk Button that doesn't come up often: Ash is a [[
** Threatening or hurting his other human companions will also not turn out well for whoever does it.
* Fall asleep while Jigglypuff's performing and it will get angry. Steal its marker/microphone or otherwise deny it the chance to perform and it will get REALLY angry.
Line 17 ⟶ 19:
* Never call Jessie "a hag" or "old". It's a good way to ensure a death wish.
** Heaven help you if you mess up or insult Jessie's hair as well. This is one of the many things that can easily set her off. Poor Seviper... she caught him ''bare-handed'' for chopping it off!
** Even [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM0y1lhuba0 getting it wet] will drive her into a fury.
* [[Pokémon Special|Silver and Blue]] were raised as part of the Mask of Ice's recruitment and training campaign, and the two of them have developed a bond of their own. Green's "noisy woman" comments about Blue are responded to with a glare from Silver as a reminder that he is ''on notice''; if you harass or bring harm to her, he will turn you inside out.
** To say nothing of the beating he gave to [[Handsome Lech|Gold]] for touching her...
Line 24 ⟶ 27:
** Lance triggers a similar response during his attempt at [[Kill All Humans|genocide]]. The moral of this little story is that Yellow is slower to anger than just about everyone else on the planet, but once she's pissed, you call your Pokémon back, you turn one-hundred-and-eighty degrees, and you never stop running while there is breath in your body.
* [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure|Hareta]] has a hard time understanding the concept of evil - one of his buddies is an ex-Galactic, he lets several wrongdoers slide (though he does stop them from time to time, it's just what he does), and he even has to explain to ''Cyrus'' that he doesn't hate him for all he's done. But if you sell Pokemon in front of him...
* Ash's Infernape will give you a good fight. But seriously, ''don't'' taunt him for being weak if he's losing. Especially if you're [[Bad Boss|Paul]]. You're likely to trigger [[Super Mode|Blaze]], and have a Crazed-[[Kill It
* One of the Pichu brothers, in ''Camp Pikachu,'' gets to have its own [[Berserk Button]], complete with a anger cloud, when Sudowoodo steals the grapes.
** [http://serebii.net/anime/pictures/houen/S9ps1.shtml Then there's this one time when the non-haired Pichu brother yells at Teddiursa for making Azumarill drop the acorns and causing the acorns to break by a moving truck.]
* Also, in one episode, Phione made a offer to battle Pikachu, but Pikachu rejects the offer. '''Wrong choice!''' Phione has [[Wingding Eyes|fire in its eyes,]] and yells at Pikachu.
