▲* [[Badass]]: His cousin, Lento ("Slowpoke") Rodriguez, the slowest mouse in Mexico... who packs a gun and knows how to use it.
* [[Bandito]]: Pancho Vanilla (Yosemite Sam) in "Pancho's Hideaway".
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: In "The Pied Piper Guadalupe" one of the mice carries a "Loco El Gato" sign. This is a wrong translation of "Crazy Cat", reading "Crazy The Cat" ([[Krazy Kat
* [[Catch Phrase
* [[Chivalrous Pervert]]: Speedy Gonzales
* [[Dashing Hispanic]]: In more ways than one.
* [[Early Installment Weirdness]]: Speedy's early design (in which Speedy wore a pink shirt, had no pants, had a gold front tooth, and looked stereotypically Mexican with his mop of greasy black hair and broken Spanish (the latter of which stayed when the character was changed) looks nothing like his current self.
* [[The Dark Age of Animation]]
Line 98 ⟶ 100:
* [[The Golden Age of Animation]]
* [[Gratuitous Spanish]]: ¡Por supuesto!
* [[Hero Antagonist]]: Like a lot of other ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' protagonists, he flip
* [[Invincible Hero]]: The amount of times a villain actually defeated Speedy can be counted on one hand. The amount of times a villain so much as challenged him actually aren't much larger than that.
** [[Comically Invincible Hero]]: It plays a lot into the gags however.
* [[Knight of Cerebus]]: Astonishingly enough, Daffy is actually this to the rest of Speedy Gonzales' Rogues Gallery. While still highly comical in tone, the situations Speedy was placed in were sometimes a lot more dire against Daffy, who stands as the only villain
* [[Meaningful Name]]: With a name like his, there's a reason why he's the "Fastest Mouse of all of Mexico".
▲* [[Mexicans Love Speedy Gonzales]]: [[Trope Namer]].
** He has a cousin called Slowpoke Rodriguez, who is the slowest but his [[Cornered Rattlesnake|ability with weaponry makes up for it]].
* [[Nice Hat]]: His ever-present sombrero.
* [[Political Correctness Gone Mad]]: Made even funnier by the fact that ''real'' Mexicans loved it (it had a Mexican making his Gringo foes look like idiots, after all.)
* [[Spexico]]: Another reason Mexicans didn't mind it much was because it was an obvious intentional exaggeration of Mexican stereotypes, which even they love to use
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Speedy on ''The Looney Tunes Show'' is now voiced by Fred Armisen (who ''is'' Hispanic, but is actually Venezuelan on his mother's side of the family; his father, is [[Twofer Token Minority|Japanese and German]]) from ''[[Saturday Night Live]]''
* [[Token Minority]]: One of the few Mexican characters in the Looney Tunes cast.
* [[Took a Level
