Special:Badtitle/NS90:Talk:Complete Monster/Western Animation/"Examples" that should NOT be seen here.


 * Ixis Naugus from Sonic the Hedgehog - When the basis for his inclusion isn't anything he did (which was next to nothing) but just "the resident CM is afraid of him", then you know he doesn't qualify. In his one episode, he'd almost count as a Designated Villain!
 * Anyone from Avatar: The Last Airbender who is not Ozai - No Zhao, no Long Feng, no Azula, no Hama, no Koh, etc. Ozai is the only villain who fits the trope's criteria 100%.
 * Amon or Tarrlok from The Legend of Korra - Both were Yakone's abuse victims and have valid Freudian Excuses, both were eclipsed in heinousness, both had altruistic qualities and regrets for their crimes, and both had the possibility of redemption open to them had Tarrlok not chosen to take them both out of their misery.
 * Hiroshi Sato from The Legend of Korra - Though blinded by hatred now, he started off motivated by the love for his wife, and genuinely loved Asami too. His Freudian Excuse also explains his psychology pretty well, and it's entirely possible he could be redeemed in the future.
 * Vaatu from The Legend of Korra - As the embodiment of chaos, destruction, and all things evil, he is Made of Evil, thus his default moral agency makes him a Generic Doomsday Villain.
 * Evil Jimmy from Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius - Is a clone Made of Evil, thus no moral agency, same with the other evil clones he makes. Is also Played for Laughs too often.
 * Cousin Eddie from Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius - Is both Played for Laughs and his worst crime is attempting to ruin a birthday party. Not at all heinous enough to qualify. Plus, he's not at an age where he's irredeemable yet!
 * The Trix from Winx Club - They've been shown to care for one another, and most of what they get up to doesn't go beyond standard villainy by the work's standards.
 * Chris from Total Drama - His sadism and crimes, which could qualify him in another work, are totally Played for Laughs in this series. He also has some decent qualities, like a friendship with Chef and Even Evil Has Standards.
 * Pirate from Exo Squad - Fails the heinous standard, having been listed only for trying to kill a good guy, which is standard villainy.
 * Soto from Ice Age - Doesn't go beyond standard villainy, and is motivated by revenge for family he'd lost to human hunters.
 * Eric Cartman from South Park - If he ever crosses the line into this trope, he's always back out of it by the next episode due to Negative Continuity. He's also usually Played for Laughs, and actually has shown altruistic, redeeming features from time to time.
 * Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2 - He has a valid Freudian Excuse and is shown in-universe to be a Tragic Villain, his relationship with the soothsayer shows altruistic qualities on his part, and the possibility of redemption was open to him: he just chose to find peace through dying instead. Word of God also says that he did harbor regrets for his actions deep down, but didn't want to turn from his path because it would mean facing the fact that everything he'd ever done was in vain, for no good cause at all.
 * Anyone from My Little Pony who is not Tirek - Not Discord (who was initially Chaotic Evil by nature, didn't pass the heinous standard, and ended up reforming and becoming a friend to the ponies), not Chrysalis (whose murder attempts were not particularly gruesome, is wanting to steal energy as nourishment for her subjects, and indicates that she's Made of Evil), not King Sombra (who perhaps was a CM in life but is currently a Generic Doomsday Villain force of nature with no moral agency and a low rep sheet of heinousness), not Sunlight Shimmer (who showed a few positive qualities and reformed in the end, being Easily Forgiven by the cast), and not minor villains like Garble (who all fail the heinous standard).
 * Anyone from Spongebob Squarepants - Mr. Krabs, Plankton, and both Dennis and the Cyclops from The Movie got this label the most. Krabs became an extreme Jerkass due to Flanderization, but even now is totally Played for Laughs, not feared and hated by others, and has redeeming features showcased in some episodes. Plankton is an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain with notable redeeming features whose Moral Event Horizon crossing in The Movie was still standard villainy. Dennis is never shown actually killing anyone, and he has Laughably Evil moments despite being a Knight of Cerebus. And the Cyclops? While what he caused to happen was sad, he himself had no character and was entirely Played for Laughs.
 * Anyone from Family Guy and American Dad - Since these are comedy shows with low standards and Negative Continuity, no one can qualify. In the former, even the one character not Played for Laughs, Jeff, was only guilty of doing things that other characters have done and Played for Laughs in the past and are actually less heinous than other actions still, so the series actually has no standards against what his actions constituted.
