** ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid'': Ursula acts as such to King Triton. Both are powerful undersea magic users, but Triton is a stern, if benevolent merman who rules his kingdom peacefully and is a very kind father to his daughters (albeit with a strong bout of FantasticRacism towards the entire human race, which causes strife with his youngest daughter Ariel), while Ursula is a [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]] cecelia who lures "poor, unfortunate souls" like Ariel to her lair so she can screw them over by giving them what they want, while making it impossible for them to fulfill their end of the bargain so she can claim their souls (while also implied to be TheExile who mistreated her subjects because she felt like it). Triton at least manages to overcome his prejudice and lets his daughter live amongst humanity by the end of the film, but Ursula never overcomes her lust for power [[spoiler: and gets ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice]].

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'': Chick Hicks is the evil counterpart to Lightning [=McQueen=]. Both are portrayed as rude and arrogant racecars who cared about nothing but themselves and made fun of other cars. What makes them different is that at the end of the film, [=McQueen=] ends up losing the final race but is now respected by the other cars since he actually now learned to accept defeat by helping another racecar, Strip "The King" Weathers, cross the finish line after he was crashed by Chick, while Chick ended up winning the same race but is ultimately betrayed by everyone else since they found out about what he did to The King, and that doing such is actually against the racing code. In essence, Chick represents what Lightning could have become had he continued down the path of arrogance--as ''WesternAnimation/Cars3'' shows, Lightning is still a respected racer well into his seasoned years, while Chick is nothing more than a loudmouth talkshow host who spends his days bashing Lightning.

* ''WesternAnimation/PussInBootsTheLastWish'' has a very subtle but themetically beautiful example with the Dog aka Perito being the Good Counterpart to the Wolf aka [[spoiler: [[TheGrimReaper Death]]]]. They are both the only caninines in the film, both are spanish, both wear clothes and hoods (both appearing to Puss in disguise initally) and they are both unnamed for the majority of the movie. Except while Wolf [[spoiler:being Death]] is nasty, cruel and violent terrorsing Puss at his lowest, Perito is compassionate and gentle helping Puss recover from a panic attack, in many ways representing life and the will to live. Not to mention Perito has warm blue eyes compared to Wolf's scary red eyes.

** ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'': Oogie Boogie is this to Jack Skellington. Both live in Halloween Town, but Jack, a walking skeleton man, is the benevolent ruler with a OneHundredPercentAdorationRating amongst its populous, while Oogie, a burlap-sack filled with bugs, is TheExile living on the outskirts of town in a creepy manor. Jack is a NiceGuy who scares people [[PunchClockVillain because it's part of his job]], only to grow bored with Halloween and decide to take over Christmas in a misguided but well-meaning attempt to understand the holiday, whereas Oogie is a CardCarryingVillain who tortures people ForTheEvulz, and does the same to Santa Claus simply because he can.

*** He is this to both sisters, but especially Anna. He even has a physical resemblance to her, and his [[MeaningfulName name]], which means "God is gracious," reflects his role as a [[ShadowArchetype mirror]] toward Elsa (whose own name has the meaning "God's oath") and Anna (whose name means "gracious"). Like Elsa, he [[spoiler:hides much of himself]], [[ArcSymbol symbolized]] by their shared habit of [[ClothingReflectsPersonality gloves]]. Like Anna, he also [[spoiler:grew up being overshadowed and ignored by his older siblings]]. However, unlike the two of them, he became both ruthless and cruel. Whereas Elsa avoids hurting other people, he embraces it, and whereas Anna reacted to her life of feeling unloved by trying to spread love and help others, including the older, more powerful sibling who ignored her,[[note]]although in Elsa's case, it was [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold an act to protect her secret]][[/note]] [[spoiler:Hans]] plots to gain power and status at any cost, including murdering innocents and [[spoiler:forsaking any relationships he had with his estranged family]].
*** He is also this to Kristoff to a lesser extent. While both are [[spoiler:set up as Anna's LoveInterest]], Kristoff is a NiceGuy despite his initial appearance as a detached misanthrope while [[spoiler:Hans]] [[BaitTheDog is built up as someone]] who cares for others, but is [[TheReveal revealed]] to be a selfish and duplicitous man. [[WesternAnimation/FrozenII As of the sequel]], Kristoff essentially succeeds where [[spoiler:Hans]] failed, as Kristoff [[spoiler:becomes the King of Arendelle out of genuine love rather than lies and manipulation. And, intentional or not, Kristoff primarily wears black during the epilogue where we see for the first time Anna as queen, while Hans was primarily in white during Elsa's coronation]].

*** Both Aladdin and Jafar wish to move up in society and resort to trickery to do so. Including how both put up a façade in order to ingratiate themselves with the royal family. Whether it be Jafar putting up the image of a loyal vizier when in reality he is aiming to take the throne for himself or Aladdin taking up his "Prince Ali" identity to cover up his humble street urchin true self. Both also abuse and become overly-reliant on magic in their pursuits. Whether it be Jafar using his staff to hypnotize the Sultan, Aladdin's use of the Genie to support his Prince Ali façade instead of freeing him, and then Jafar's own use of the Genie later to take over Agrabah. Jafar becomes so caught up in the high of power that it becomes his undoing. Aladdin using his resourcefulness manages to trick Jafar into turning himself into a genie to become even stronger which seals him into the lamp that comes with it. Both also have little animal sidekicks almost always on their person. Jafar even seems to notice their similarities given the lines, "Just a con, need I go on? Take it from me." during his song the ''Prince Ali Reprise''. Itself a twisted perversion of the earlier song Aladdin used when introducing his new fake identity as Jafar is revealing his own true self.
*** ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheReturnOfJafar'': Jafar this time serves as this for Genie after he has made his wish to turn himself into a genie as well. However he's an evil genie instead of a BenevolentGenie. Jafar tries to arrange for his freedom through a deal with his current master similar to Genie's deal with Aladdin in the first film. Genie himself however was never self-serving, vindictive, or underhanded with his masters in contrast to Jafar who is all those things when serving Abis Mal. Doing things like twisting around his wishes to be negatives, pushing him around, and even threatening him with violence.
*** His VillainSong in that movie, "You're Only Second Rate", is the Evil Counterpart to the first movie's "You've Never Had a Friend Like Me", as they are both chaotic, jazzy songs sung by a genie transforming himself into various wacky things (and doing the same to the listener who is dragged along for the ride) while bragging about their 'phenomenal cosmic powers', but whereas the latter was about Genie telling Aladdin how he was going to use his powers to change his life for the better, "Second Rate" is about Jafar telling the Genie about how he's going to [[FauxAffablyEvil kick his ass]]. Both songs are also SophisticatedAsHell, with words like 'ruminate' and 'pontificate' interspersed with terms like 'pizazz' and 'double whammy', or just fun-sounding gibberish.
** While he was largely a [[FlatCharacter non-discript menace]] in [[WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}} the original film]], ''WesternAnimation/BambiII'' develops Ronno into a fully fledged one for Bambi as children. Both are conveyed as insecure and cowardly, however while Bambi is an Adorkable NiceGuy who [[LovableCoward steps up the game when others need him]], Ronno is an [[MilesGloriosus egomaniacal bully]] who grows [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex a petty grudge towards Bambi for accidentally upstaging him]]. Similarly while Bambi would shyly court Faline and become protective towards her, Ronno proved possessive and tried to force claim over her. Even dynamically nearly everything Ronno does to [[StartOfDarkness lead his character into darker territory]] galvanises Bambi's [[HeroesFrontierStep more heroic qualities to develop]].

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'': Hades acts as such to Hercules. Both are Gods from Mount Olympus, but Hades is HatedByAll thanks to being the god of the dead, while Hercules (who was BroughtDownToNormal thanks to Hades) is initially hated for being TheKlutz with his SuperStrength until he becomes a beloved hero renowned for his deeds. Hercules intends to try and reclaim his godhood, but ultimately [[spoiler: allows himself to remain normal so he could be with Megara]], while Hades attempts to claim ultimate godhood, only to [[spoiler: get trapped in the River Styx instead.]]

Turbo was the "hero" of his game, but was still an arrogant jerk who trashed another game and got it condemned out of pure jealously. [[spoiler: Turbo as it turns out, never vanished.

** Tai Lung is the evil counterpart to [[ActionGirl Tigress]]. Both do not know their real parents (the latter was raised in an OrphanageOfLove, the former was a DoorstopBaby), and [[WellDoneSonGuy just wanted their teacher's love]]. Like Tai Lung, Tigress believed that she would be chosen as the Dragon Warrior by Oogway, and resented Po for 'stealing her thunder'. Also, both are big [[CatsAreMean felines]] who suffer from {{Pride}} and [[BerserkButton a bad temper]]. Unlike Tai Lung, Tigress remained honorable by choosing to become an even better and more worthy warrior. This decision, combined with her defeat at the Thread of Hope, kept her from following the same path as him.

* The 2012 version of ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lorax|2012}}'' not only made the Once-ler more sympathetic, it gave him an evil counterpart in Mr. O'Hare. Both characters are [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Corrupt Corporate Executives]] whose products are harmful to the environment. The major difference between them is that Oncie realized the harm he had done when he was forced to shut down his company because he ran out of Truffula Trees to cut down. [[spoiler: O'Hare, on the other hand, was the only Thneedvillian who didn't pull a HeelFaceTurn when faced with the harm ''he'' had done. O'Hare represents what the Once-ler would have become had there been a few more trees.]] Both are also a different height from nearly everyone else.

** [[spoiler: Hal Stewart aka Titan becomes the Evil Counterpart to both Megamind and Metro Man. Like Megamind Hal is selfish and has a crush on Roxanne (to point of kidnapping her) and thanks to Mega Mind Hal becomes a FlyingBrick like Metro Man but abuses his power and becomes a supervillain. While Megamind was able to HeelFaceTurn thanks to Roxanne, Hal only got worse after Roxanne rejected him. Worth noting Metro Man is also similar to Hal in the sense that he got tired of being a hero but instead of turning evil, Metro Man simply faked his own death]].

*** The similarities between Bob Parr, aka Mr. Incredible, and Buddy, aka Syndrome, are apparent. They both glorify the "golden age" of superheroes and both seek recognition from the public, though since Buddy lacks superpowers, he is forced to stage his own heroics using the [[KillerRobot Omnidroid]] that causes unintentional destruction when its [[AIIsACrapShoot A.I goes rogue]], while Mr. Incredible causes unintentional [[DestructiveSavior destruction]] and trouble during his genuine heroics. [[spoiler: Not to mention Syndrome killed dozens of supers just so he could make room for himself to be one. Ironically, Syndrome did all this because Mr. Incredible rejected Buddy's [[LoonyFan desire]] to be his KidSidekick. Interestingly, even while being the BigBad, Syndrome still geeks out childishly the same as Mr. Incredible does over hero exploits. They also both believe in the BadassCape, though Edna warned Bob against it while Syndrome [[CapeSnag learned]] [[TurbineBlender too late]].]]
*** [[spoiler: Helen Parr, aka Elasigirl, and Evelyn Deavor are more overt counterparts being both women in power who are both overshadowed by the men in their lives, Helen by her husband, Mr. Incredible, and Evelyn by her brother, Winston. Both women are tech savvy and have similar ideologies [[NotSoDifferentRemark realizing they have a fair bit in common]] before and after Evelyn reveals herself as the villain. The true {{Irony}} is the reason why Elastigirl is such a good person, i.e her family, is the same reason why Evelyn is a vengeful, bitter person: because she lost her parents as a result of superheroes. It's also fitting that Evelyn is anti-super since Helen (despite being a super herself) was against becoming a hero again for the sake of her family]].
** In ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc'', Randall is one to Sulley. Both of them are top scarers at the company, but Sulley is a GentleGiant who is kind and respectful to all of his coworkers and treats his best friend and scare assistant Mike like an equal, whereas Randall is an example of ReptilesAreAbhorrent that isn't very nice to anyone, and treats his scare assistant Fungus like dirt while also forcing him to be his accomplice. Since the company scares kids to extract screams for power in spite of believing them to be toxic, Sulley initially fears them, but warms up to a little girl name Boo and comes to realize they aren't toxic at all (though he tragically realizes they're being traumatized when he accidentally scares her), while Randall wants to kidnap them and forcibly extract their screams, regardless of what harm it will do to them. They're also both closely associated with Mr. Waternoose, but Sulley is well-liked and respected by the CEO as the son he never had, while Randall [[spoiler: is his accomplice in the scream extractor scheme, but isn't liked by Waternoose in the slightest]].

** ''WesternAnimation/SantaClausIsCominToTown'': Mayor Burgermeister Meisterburger is this to Kris Kringle. Both of them battle over the well being of Sombertown, with the former wanting to keep it under his oppressive thumb, while the latter wants to bring happiness to it via giving toys to the children. Mesiterburger hates children, and especially their toys, so he goes out of his way to burn and destroy any toy he finds, arresting those who have them in their possession. Kris, however, wants to give the children toys (albeit if they behave themselves) so he can give them some meaning to their lives, and purely out of the goodness of his heart. It speaks volumes that Kris was able to reform the villainous Winter Warlock via kindness, convince Ms. Jessica (aka [[spoiler: the future Mrs. Claus]]) to understand his point of view on toys, and is revered as a hero in the present day, whereas Meisterburger only got further injury, eventually dying out and being forgotten. One dreads the thought of what happened had Meisterburger raised Baby Claus instead of tossing him out to the orphanage...

to:

** ''WesternAnimation/SantaClausIsCominToTown'': Mayor Burgermeister Meisterburger ''WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman'': Professor Hinkle is one to Frosty the Snowman. Both are closely tied to the hat that brought Frosty to life (having originally belonged to Hinkle), and both are silly characters that aren't much for brains. Unlike the NiceGuy Frosty, who lives up to his reputation as a jolly, happy soul and needs the hat to continue living, Hinkle is driven by {{Greed}} to reclaim his hat so he can make himself rich. In addition, Frosty is a FriendToAllChildren, and risks his life to protect Karen from the cold, while Hinkle would happily let her freeze to death so he can lure Frosty out and swipe the hat. Fortunately, this doesn't last long, as Santa has to Kris Kringle. Both of them battle over the well threaten him with no more Christmas presents to set Hinkle straight, and he undergoes a HeelFaceTurn.
** ''WesternAnimation/FrostysWinterWonderland'': Jack Frost steps up to plate in Hinkle's stead as this trope for Frosty, with both
being of Sombertown, prominent figures associated with the former wanting winter. In Frosty's case, he's a {{Snowlem}} who needs winter to keep it under his oppressive thumb, while the latter wants live, whereas Jack is AnIcePerson who lives to bring happiness winter. Where the differences between the two lie is that Frosty is a NiceGuy and a FriendToAllChildren that's beloved by his friends for those traits, while Jack is a smarmy {{Jerkass}} with a SmallNameBigEgo and ItsAllAboutMe attitude that the kids rightfully recognize as an arrogant blowhard. Likewise, Frosty holds no animosity to it via giving toys Jack, but Jack is [[GreenEyedMonster very jealous]] of the snowman. Fortunately, a HeelFaceTurn occurs, and the bringer of winter is made much nicer.
** ''A Miser Brothers Christmas'', the sequel to ''WesternAnimation/TheYearWithoutASantaClaus'', presents The North Wind as this
to the children. Mesiterburger hates children, titular Brothers. All three of them are children of Mother Nature, each responsible for protecting the delicate balance of the elements, and they all treat their jobs as SeriousBusiness (well, mostly in the Misers' case, as they can't stop bickering with each other long enough to remember it). But for all the duo's faults, they would never consider hurting anyone, especially not Santa Claus, which their toys, so he goes out of his way bickering is led to burn and destroy any toy he finds, arresting those who have them in their possession. Kris, however, wants to give the children toys (albeit if they behave themselves) so he can give them some meaning to their lives, and purely out of the goodness of his heart. It speaks volumes that Kris was able to reform the villainous Winter Warlock via kindness, convince Ms. Jessica (aka [[spoiler: the future Mrs. Claus]]) to understand his point of view on toys, and is revered as a hero in the present day, whereas Meisterburger only got further injury, eventually dying out and being forgotten. One dreads the be thought of what happened had Meisterburger raised Baby as the culprit for a sleigh accident that lands the poor Claus instead of tossing him out to in bed. The North Wind, on the orphanage...other hand, is the true culprit, happy to make Santa get hurt (or worse) so he can take over the North Pole--which his brothers are forced to do anyway as punishment, making them reconcile and grow closer along the way, while The North Wind winds up being exposed and forced to do chores for the next several thousand years. Funny enough, he was the favorite of the siblings under Mother Nature, whereas the Misers' weren't thought of very fondly.

Both are connected to time itself, but Father Time is responsible for maintaining it, while Aeon is trying to stop it. It's indicated that each year, Father Time steps down so a Baby New Year could take his place as the keeper of time--an act of which he accepts with dignity, while Aeon, who's due to die at the end of the year, is desperate to stop time so he can live longer by kidnapping the current Baby New Year just long enough to accomplish his goal. Though like with Hinkle, he makes a HeelFaceTurn, this time thanks to Rudolph and Happy.

** In ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc'', Randall is one to Sulley. Both of them are top scarers at the company, but Sulley is a GentleGiant who is kind and respectful to all of his coworkers and treats his best friend and scare assistant Mike like an equal, whereas Randall is an example of ReptilesAreAbhorrent that isn't very nice to anyone, and treats his scare assistant Fungus like dirt while also forcing him to be his accomplice. Since the company scares kids to extract screams for power in spite of believing them to be toxic, Sulley initially fears them, but warms up to a little girl name Boo and comes to realize they aren't toxic at all (though he tragically realizes they're being traumatized when he accidentally scares her), while Randall wants to kidnap them and forcibly extract their screams, regardless of what harm it will do to them. They're also both closely associated with Mr. Waternoose, but Sulley is well-liked and respected by the CEO as the son he never had, while Randall [[spoiler: is his accomplice in the scream extractor scheme, but isn't liked by Waternoose in the slightest]]. Also accounting ''WesternAnimation/MonstersAtWork'', ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII'' and the original film's ending, [[spoiler: Sulley is a BenevolentBoss to the company who works hard to make sure every keeps their jobs and makes children happy through laugh power, having the position of CEO [[YouKilledItYouBoughtIt thrust upon him]] after Waternoose is arrested, while Randall, upon his brief return to Monstropolis, desires to take over the company so he can force the city back to scream power, regardless of who it screws over, because he wants the power more than anything else.]] ''WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity'' further fleshed out the two's differences by revealing that Randall UsedToBeASweetKid who fell in with a bad crowd and TookALevelInJerkass to the point he destroyed his friendship with Mike, while Sulley used to be a JerkJock who was TheRival to Mike until he TookALevelInKindness and became his best friend.

** Peter B. Parker reflects the Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin from Miles's universe, both are middle-aged, jaded (chubby) men who see an opportunity to make amends with an AlternateUniverse portal. Interestingly Kingpin's motivations and anger in the movie stem from losing his family, while Peter B. Parker's depression and regret come from the fact he was too scared to start a family MJ in the first place which led to divorce and sadness. By the end of the movie Peter B Parker has gained an appreciation for family, while Fisk’s VillainousBreakdown gets worse when it becomes clear he can't bring his wife and son back and takes his rage out upon the heroes.

[[spoiler: Not to mention Syndrome killed dozens supers just so he could make room for himself to be one, ironically Syndrome did all this because Mr Incredible rejected Buddy's [[LoonyFan desire]] to be his KidSidekick.

*** While Mufasa is a wise king who genuinely cares for his subjects and family, Scar would abandon anyone at the drop of a hat to save his own hide, as shown by him pinning the blame on his hyena minions. The way they rule the Pride Lands also shows the difference between the two, with the kingdom turning into a literal hellhole under Scar's disastrous reign. In ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'', Scar even comes returns as a demonic, malevolent abomination who plans to destroy the Pride Lands out of spite compared to his brother's Messianic appearance.

*** Scar serves as this to Simba. Both start out as royals who yearn to be king for the benefits, but don't grasp the responsibility that comes with it. After the death of Mufasa, Simba's exile, and Scar's ascent both would wallow in a childish laziness, each wanting to live a cozy carefree life without much responsibility, be it Simba hiding out in a lush jungle away from personal responsibilities or Scar trying to simply shirk them off. However, Simba eventually manages to move on from his childishness and guilt rooted in his past in order to return to the Pride Lands and save them from Scar, who doesn't grow past the entitled, self-centered, and whiny childish stage that Simba was at when the film started. A major contrast between the two is Simba's willingness to go back and atone for the mistakes of his past, even if he comes to learn he wasn't truly responsible later, whilst Scar winds up getting killed by the hyenas because of how he tried shifting the full blame of his crimes to them in an attempt to weasel his way out of facing the consequences of them. Also notable also is how both come to have chief sidekicks who are outcasts who live outside the Pride Lands and are obsessed with food, but while Simba treats his with genuine care, Scar treats his with utter apathy.

to:

%%* Tank Evans * Drago Bludvist is an evil counterpart of Hiccup in ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon2'': As Hiccup he does not kills dragons, instead learning how to Cody Maverick train them, but in ''WesternAnimation/SurfsUp''.his case he used this knowledge for evil and wants to make an army of dragons to TakeOverTheWorld. Grimmel the Grisly is this to Hiccup in ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragonTheHiddenWorld'' When Hiccup found Toothless, he befriended it and went on to believe humans and dragons can coexist. When Grimmel found a night fury, he killed it and went on to believe dragons must be exterminated.



* The 2012 version of ''WesternAnimation/TheLorax'' not only made the Once-ler more sympathetic, it gave him an evil counterpart in Mr. O'Hare. Both characters are [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Corrupt Corporate Executives]] whose products are harmful to the environment. The major difference between them is that Oncie realized the harm he had done when he was forced to shut down his company because he ran out of Truffula Trees to cut down. [[spoiler: O'Hare, on the other hand, was the only Thneedvillian who didn't pull a HeelFaceTurn when faced with the harm ''he'' had done.

Like Megamind Hal is selfish and has a crush on Roxanne (to point of kidnapping her) and thanks to Mega Mind Hal becomes a FlyingBrick like Metro Man but abuses his power and becomes a supervillain. While Megamind was able to HeelFaceTurn thanks to Roxanne, Hal only got worse after Roxanne rejected him. Worth noting Metro Man is also similar to Hal in the sense that he got tired of being a hero but instead of turning evil, Metro Man simply faked his own death]].
* ''WesternAnimation/ParaNorman'': [[spoiler:Agatha Prenderghast]] is this to Norman. Both are discriminated against by the townspeople because of having the ability to speak to the dead. But whereas Norman seeks to save them and learns to value the people who care about him, [[spoiler:Agatha]] sought to make them suffer and completely forgot about the ones who loved her in the process.
