Tropes/Trauma Buttons

## Multi-Arc

* Tell an All-Loving Heroine about how the Shinju-sama (aibet temporarily) takes away bodily functions and they will start crying.
* Don't ever remind Jim of the armed gang that shot him or how he had to be turned into a near-complete cyborg. Him getting out a bottle of alcohol (soda in the dub) or a cigarette (a lollipop in the dub) is usually his equivalent to crying.
* Don't ever remind Queen Vera of her good self, as she is quite insecure despite her lust for power and feels it is far too late to turn back.
* Melody is sometimes torn between leaving her only parent because of his borderline psychoticness and the fact he killed his friends, and still caring about him.

## Cherry Magica

* After Valerie turns on her friends due to being upset at having to earn power, and gains dark powers and semi-immortality, Cherry is so devastated that she chooses to believe that the AoTA have brainwashed her against her will and is in denial about the truth.

## Nina Magica

* After a certain point in the arc, don't tell Nina about a certain incident concerning her possessed self, or she will run away crying.

## Bailey Magica

* One-chapter example: Behaver cries often and is extremely depressed due to believing that her best friend hates her. When the Magis first encounter her, she is seen crying on a perch in her barrier, though Kendall ends up accidentally triggering her and causes her to get angry and start chasing the Magis when she asks if she's crying over Dragonet.

## Lillie Magica

* Lillie is terrified of touching any Pokémon at all (except Snowy) due to an incident involving a Nihilego when she was younger - even Dragonet's WLH will cause her to freeze up in terror.

## Elizabeth Magica

* After Abigail finds out the truth about Event Horizon, she becomes devastated and is traumatized that she wasn't there to protect her second best friend. The episode after Katrina is saved, the poor woman who contracted as the cheerful 10 year-old daughter of a deceased Burst Warrior witches out.
* As a temporary example, Elizabeth and Nova are both left devastated by the death of their friends, but force themselves to not give up. This goes away after they are all revived after Katrina is freed.

## Rosie Magica

* Most of the Magis have been left depressed from their parents' disappearance. When the AoTA finally *show* them their parents' and their parents' Pokémons' souls inside crystal orbs, they are so devastated that they are left frozen in shock and break down crying, especially when Rosie sees her mother's soul among them (especially after it is revealed that her mother had previously called her on the phone informing her of her capture). However, this also makes them so angry that they become reckless and try to run towards them without even thinking.

## Katy Magica

* If you ever mention Mason's death in front of Katy, she will cry uncontrollably.
* *Never* mention Kenny's death in front of Cynthia. After his death, she becomes depressed, steals a bottle of high-proof liquor from a liquor store (due to being a minor), and is seconds away from drinking a shot and giving herself alcohol poisoning before her remaning friends talk her out of it.
* Don't mention Melody's past friends and family (unless your name is Melissa), as her emotional pain has built up over the years and by this point has almost reached its breaking point.
* Melissa blames herself for the accident that left Kylie with a magic shard stuck in her heart, and starting with Melody's death when she tries and fails to convince her to not defeat the witch all by herself, also blames herself for failing to protect the other Magis each time one of them dies (up until her own death) due to seeing herself as their guardian of sorts.
	+ Her own death late in the arc also severely devastates the remaining Magis.
* Kylie normally is cheerful and positive, but she also often struggles to cope with her occasional bouts of intense pain that can appear at any moment.
