Parents need to know that this 1990s cartoon has plenty of animated fantasy/weapons violence, as well as some positive messages about teamwork. The X-Men are mutants who've developed amazing superpowers and have dedicated their lives to using their abilities to help others -- despite the fact that they're frequently subjected to bigotry from some vocal groups of "normal" people, who claim that mutants aren't human and should be exterminated. It's a simple, but powerful, metaphor for racism. The X-Men a diverse bunch drawn from a wide variety of backgrounds, and the huge variety of their powers requires them to work effectively as a team when battling their enemies.
No sex, though some of the female heroes wear moderately suggestive costumes.
Plenty of cartoon clashes involving a variety of superpowers. One of the main characters, Wolverine, fights with very sharp blades that emerge from his forearms and seems to relish hand-to-hand combat. The X-Men sometimes take on humans without powers -- who use guns, grenades, and other weapons instead. Despite all the fighting, there's no blood and very few injuries.
Due to the X-Men's differences from "regular" people -- the X-Men are all mutants who've developed amazing superpowers -- they're frequently subjected to bigotry and racism. This animosity often leads to violence, though the X-Men are careful to avoid using their abilities to harm others. They're also a pretty diverse bunch.
The show doesn't promote any specific brands other than the X-Men themselves -- that said, they've become an extremely popular franchise.
