** Similarly, in the DiC series, Professor Coldheart used a magic mirror to reverse the Care Bears' and Cousins' personalities. Reverse Grumpy eagerly stepped up to the challenge of saving the day.

Appearing in the 1980s series, and the first villain that the Care Bears faced. A blue-skinned, white-haired MadScientist obsessed with literally and emotionally freezing the rest of the world over. He and his bumbling assistant Frostbite have been quietly removed from continuity, since they were Creator/{{DiC}}-original characters and, when Creator/{{Nelvana}} took the rights, they couldn't take the Professor.

The primary villain of the 1980s series; a malevolent sorcerer who sought to extinguish positive feelings and to defeat the Care Bears in pursuit of this goal. He has a bumbling assistant, Beastly, and is also assisted by his niece Shreeky.

* HeelFaceBrainwashing: A very temporal one in the "Runaway". Interesting to note, that it wasn't from Care Bears Stare, but from his own machine malfunction.
* IAmSong: His first VillainSong, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0f130MJjKE "I'm Professor Cold Heart"]], which is basically bragging about who he is and what he can do.

* HarmlessVillain: Borderlines with PunchClockVillain. Beastly is a bumbling idiot who really only wants to do bad things because No Heart will painfully punish him if he doesn't.

* MysteriousPast: The only thing we learn about him is that he's got a niece, and even ''that's'' basically a RetCon.

* NotSoInvincibleAfterAll: Well, he almost drown by hitting his head and falling out of a canoe.

Appearing in the 1980s series, and the first villain that the Care Bears faced. A blue-skinned, white-haired MadScientist obsessed with literally and emotionally freezing the rest of the world over. He and his bumbling assistant Frostbite have been quietly removed from continuity, since they were Creator/{{DiC}}-original characters and, when Creator/{{Nelvana}} took the rights, they couldn't take the Professor. Voiced by Creator/LenCarlson.

* AnIcePerson: He's been described as "a kindergartener's [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Mister Freeze]]". He has blue skin and white hair, which calls to mind ice and snow, always dresses in wintery clothing, and his technology & schemes revolve around emotionally and literally freezing things.

* ComplexityAddiction: Well, manipulation addiction at least. Professor Cold Heart indulged in his ManipulativeBastard tendencies at just about any given occasion, whether or not it actually furthered his scheme. Particularly blatant in "Wedding Bells", where his plan mostly failed because he had manipulated his own ally Auntie Freeze into playing her part, when telling her the truth would probably have served just as well. When she found out he'd lied to her, she turned on him.

* KickTheDog: Perhaps more so than any other villain in the franchise. His ''first'' appearance had him luring runaway children and then mutating them into pathetic, voiceless creatures he kept as his slaves (with creepy pedophilia undertones). His second appearance had him using a device to have every child in town frozen solid (and he took some time away from that plot to kidnap the Care Bear cubs, ''encase them in ice'', and then ''kick them'' while [[VillainSong singing about his plot]]). Later appearances had him keep it up - draining abducted children of energy to power a weapon, torturing a little girl by freezing her arm...

* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: ''Professor'' Coldheart. He's certainly an EvilGenius, though what exactly he's a professor of is unknown.

* VillainDecay: Professor Coldheart was legitimately creepy in his debut appearance. In the next TV special, he's given a goofy sidekick and undertakes a standard supervillain plan to freeze the world rather than the disturbingly personal villainy from before. In the TV show, he decays further, being given a sillier, high-pitched voice and treated as more of a bumbling nuisance.
* VillainSong: Has his own song in both of his movie appearance; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0f130MJjKE "I'm Professor Cold Heart"]] in the first, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrGPdf_VoW4 "The Freeze Machine"]] in the second.

A villain from the DIC series, he tried to steal the stars to aid in his personal violin concert.

An ice-themed villain from the DIC series, Auntie Freeze has a glare that's literally chilling. She works alongside Professor Coldheart on occasion.

The primary villain of the 1980s TV show, a malevolent sorcerer who sought to extinguish positive feelings and to defeat the Care Bears in pursuit of this goal. He has a bumbling assistant, Beastly, and is also assisted by his niece Shreeky.

* WouldHurtAChild: In "Bravest of the Brave," he comes ''this'' close to frying the young boy who's just saved the Bears and Cousins from the episode's death-trap...only [[JustInTime their timely arrival]] [[BigDamnHeroes puts a halt on that]].

A bumbling bestial creature who serves as No Heart's flunky. He was revamped and reappeared on his own in ''WesternAnimation/CareBearsWelcomeToCareALot'' and ''WesternAnimation/CareBearsAndCousins''. For that version, see [[Characters/CareBearsWelcomeToCareALot here]].

* BatOutOfHell: Subverted with the 1980s incarnation. While he is an evil minion and bears a resemblance to a wingless bat creature, he's way too bumbling to be effective.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: She looks human...ish. But as she's No Heart's niece, who can say what she is?

* BigSisterBully: She acts bossy and mean to Beastly.

* VagueAge: Shreeky's age is unknown but by the looks of her, she's probably ten years old or so.

* VileVillainSaccharineShow: She makes Nicholas go completely crazy and power-mad, and comes within two people in the ''entire world'' of destroying Care-A-Lot forever.

* MyseriousPast: The only thing we learn about him is that he's got a niece, and even ''that's'' basically a RetCon.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: It's never stated what happened to him after he's defeated by the Prince. One can assume he was either imprisoned or exiled though.

* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: The entirety of "The Great Race" episode.

* {{Expy}}: In TheMovie, WesternAnimation/TheCareBearsAdventureInWonderland, Dim and Dum, play the same role as Beastly (Sidekick to the BigBad), look similar to him and have the same actor providing their voices.

* VillainousFriendship: Type III, with No Heart, arguably. Beastly's been known to try to cheer his boss up after particularly nasty defeats and even spent a whole episode ''worrying about what to get him for his birthday,'' whereas No Heart doesn't seem to give a damn about him one way or another.

A young witch who is No Heart's niece, introduced later in the 1980s series. Often has to work with Beastly, but considers herself more important than him.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: She looks human...ish. But she's No Heart's niece, so, really, who can say what she is?

* DaddysLittleVillain: More like "Uncle's Little Villain". She greatly looks up to No Heart and wants to be just like him. Meanwhile, she's the only individual he shows any signs of having something remotely approaching positive feelings for.

An unnamed evil spirit who appears in [[WesternAnimation/TheCareBearsMovie the first movie]]. She "befriends" a young, lonely magician's assistant named Nicholas, turning him into her pawn so she can rid the entire world of caring.

* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: By the end of the movie he's gone completely mad and attacks Kim, Jason, and the others with intent to harm or kill.

An evil spirit who is the chief antagonist of [[WesternAnimation/CareBearsMovieIIANewGeneration the second 1980s movie]], he seeks to capture and destroy the Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins so that he can then poison the rest of the world with his evil influence. Taking a human girl named Christy under his wing, he eventually forges a connection with her that surprises him. [[spoiler: To the point of turning to the Care Bears Family to save her after he accidentally endangers her, and willingly becoming a human boy to stay with her.]]

* BigBad: The main antagonist of the second movie, [[spoiler:although he ends up having a HeelFaceTurn at the end]].

--> '''Dark Heart:''' [[RedEyesTakeWarning Nooooo]]...[[VoiceOfTheLegion GET AWAY FROM ME!!!]]

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He has one: Christy, the girl who makes a deal with him. After she saves his life, he starts to care about her. [[spoiler:To the point that he refuses to harm her during the final fight, asking her to run and save her life and pushing her out of the way. When he realizes he accidentally wounded her with his lightning, he immediately stops fighting and makes a truce with the Care Bears to save her.]]

* EvilRedhead: Has red hair and is the BigBad of his movie. [[spoiler:Before his redemption, at least.]]

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Has one at the end of the movie when realizing how much he truly cares about Christy.]]

* FreudianExcuse: She was treated like dirt by the other kids of the camp and forced to do the chores for them because she wasn't good at sports, which fueled her resentment. When Dark Heart offers her to grant her wish of being the best, she jumps at the opportunity.

* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: After becoming the "camp champ", she becomes incredibly braggy and behaves like the bully who was harassing her earlier. However, it's to mask her own insecurities. She's afraid to become a "nobody" and a loser again if Dark Heart removes the magic that turned her into the "camp champ".

* PetTheDog: Even after becoming the new "camp champ," she still treats Dawn and John nicely and doesn't make them do chores like the campers.

* TookALevelInJerkass: After Dark Heart turns her into the "camp champ", and now that the roles are reversed, she becomes just as mean as the bully who was harassing her before.

* NightmareFace: He does a brief but frightening one at the end of his VillainSong, with bulging eyes and distended jaws full of ''huge'' fangs.

The main villain of the ''WesternAnimation/CareBearsNutcrackerSuite'' television film. He usurped the throne from the Prince of Toyland and hopes to conquer the entire land.

* BigBad: Of ''Care Bears Nutcracker Suite''.
