 * Ghetsis - While he might not come off as bad as Cyrus and Lysandre due to a lack of omnicdal tendencies and shooting for a comparatively fairly standard villain goal on a lesser scale with lesser resources to accomplish his objectives, he ultimately fits the bill based on the criteria. He sure as hell has no redeeming qualities, is never painted positively and always treated seriously, earns the revulsion of other characters, has no good excuses, justification, or backstory behind his villainy whatsoever, his actions (which include elaborate mental and emotional child abuse, abusing Pokemon en masse to manipulate his adopted son into becoming his pawn, deceiving many followers and an entire nation of people into acting against what they'd actually want while believing they're doing what's right all so that he can reap the benefits, exploiting the very nature of Pokemon and society in the Pokemon world itself. torturing a Pokemon while using it as a weapon to hold over the masses and demonstrating it's power by blasting heavily-populated areas with it, planning to freeze over an entire continent in order to extort power from the masses, attempting homicide on kids at least twice, relishing in various forms of torture so that his victims can cross the Despair Event Horizon, and intending on enslaving all Pokemon and people through his oppressive regime as ruler of the world) are heinous enough by the standards of the work and the franchise within the space he occupies and the means he has to work with, he's thoroughly unrepentant for all his crimes and is ultimately incapable of showing any sort of humane decency. His one supposed Pet the Dog moment doesn't even count as that since the Shadow Triad are fanatical servants who don't really define what "saving them" constituted and we never see it on screen anyway, thus it does not stack up against Ghetsis' on-screen villainy. A full, more detailed argument for his inclusion can be read here.


 * Ein, Nascour, and Evice - All three are equally culpable in Cipher's evil atrocities in Colosseum and are all the ones keeping the "machine" running, as stated in their entry. None of them showcase any mitigating or redeeming features, and even if they were charged with their tasks by Greevil, they're ultimately the ones directly responsible for the suffering of all Pokemon twisted into mindless destructive weapons, and the suffering of people who end up attacked or inconvenienced in any way by said Pokemon. This is heinous enough by the franchise's standards to qualify them for the trope. More detail on the matter can be read here.


 * Darkrai - He's not a Generic Doomsday Villain since he has a defined character - it's just one that's thoroughly malevolent and devoid of any positive qualities. He has no Freudian Excuse or motivation besides For the Evulz, has no moral agency issues, and his actions (playing Gods against themselves, causing a Time Crash, creating a very bad future, torturing others in nightmares, dropping kids into eternal nightmares, soul enslaving, brutal homicide attempts, manipulating the heroes into being Driven to Suicide, and attempting to ravage the entire planet and cover everything in darkness) are some of the worst out of any villain in the franchise. Finally, he does not undergo a Heel Face Turn - he's mind-wiped into a blank slate who's basically forced to act good from now on. He, along with Purple Eyes, are the only Pokemon villains so bad they required divine intervention to stop them from doing any further harm.
