History Main / AllianceOfAlternates

* In the last episode of ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02'' the characters get blasted into another dimension that makes wishes into reality. When they ask for more power they split off into all of their alternate forms. For example Davis is able to summon Veemon, Flamedramon, Raidramon, Exveemon, Paildramon, and Imperialdramon in both dragon and fighter modes all at once where in a regular battle Veemon would only be able to transform into one of the above. Multiply this by the 6 main characters and they form a small army.

* In ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'', the "real" Organization XIII--featured in ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance Dream Drop Distance]]'' and ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII''--is designed to include twelve alternate incarnations of [[BigBad Master Xehanort]] from across time, led Xehanort himself. Four of these incarnations are directly related to him: Young Xehanort, from when he was a teenager; Terra-Xehanort, from when he pulled a GrandTheftMe on Terra; and Ansem and Xemnas, the Heartless and Nobody of Terra-Xehanort, respectively. The rest are his minions and members of the old Organization who've accepted a piece of his heart (essence) as their own, making them copies of Xehanort in spirit.

* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' has [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Mega Man]], who summons his various other incarnations from the series together for his Final Smash, including X from the ''[[VideoGame/MegaManX X]]'' series, Rock Volnutt from the ''[[VideoGame/MegaManLegends Legends]]'' series, [=MegaMan=].exe from ''[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork Battle Network]]'', and Geo Stellar from ''[[VideoGame/MegaManStarForce Star Force]]''.

* In ''LightNovel/TheZashikiWarashiOfIntellectualVillage'', Shinobu is separated from Yukari by countless barriers, each of which forces him to experience an agonizing death in an alternate timeline. Even moving through a handful of the barriers nearly breaks Shinobu, but this also summons the spirits of Shinobu's many alternate selves who died in those timeliness. All of them agree with Shinobu's desire to save Yukari and share the burden so he can reach her.

* A parody of the Council of Reeds from Marvel Comics, the Citadel of Ricks in ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' are hundreds of iterations of Rick Sanchez from across the "central finite curve" of the multiverse who founded the alliance in order to escape the authorities that hunt them down in their own respective universes. The protagonist Rick, Rick C-137, is one of the few Ricks who looks at the citadel and the Council of Ricks that leads it with contempt, seeing the citadel as an abandonment of the "[[IWorkAlone lone wolf]]/every-Rick-for-himself rebel" mindset that Ricks were originally defined by and [[BecameTheirOwnAntithesis becoming the very thing they hate]]. The Council in turn see Rick C-137 as a loose cannon with an unhealthy, passionate attachment to his Morty (which the Council see as nothing but accessories that can be switched out and replaced) that could potentially undermine their entire organization.

There are 2 twists involved: Vilgax and Eon also have their own army of AU!Bens (and Albedo), and [[spoiler:Part One ends with Vilgax pulling a multiverse-scale CosmicRetcon that erases every Omnitrix-wielder and their timelines from existence, and that includes both Albedo (who is technically from the main Ben 10 timeline) and Eon (who is himself an AU version of Ben). The blast ends up leaving only one Ben behind, one who never even heard of the Omnitrix in his reality, had lived a mostly normal life until he got caught in the crossfire of Vilgax's plan, and wound up getting Ben Prime's Omnitrix as he was erased from existence. The next episode focuses on [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong No Watch Ben using the Omnitrix to help reverse this]].]]
