Chekov's Dehydration Gun

If something is introduced at the start of a movie/game/TV show/episode that can easily handle the main conflict, chances are that it will never be used for that purpose.

This is named after a massive freak out Schaffrillas Productions had in his "Megamind vs The Doom Syndicate" review after Megamind stops the Go Fish Gang using the Dehydration Gun, but he didn't use it on the titular Doom Syndicate, even though the plot would've been wrapped up much quicker with it.
"The movie never says that the villains' powers are preventing them from being stopped by a simple gun!" "That, sir, is what we call a Chekov's Dehydration Gun."

Chenol

Chenol is a made up name, if you're named chenol you don't exist. Chenols are quite exotic and they tend to be so cheeky, they prefer going out and finding the treasure because x marks the spot. They like doing crazy things with everyone involved in school. Chenols are confusing and don't give up but that's their charm.
