Line 44:
* The Digimon Kaiser from ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' refered to himself as evil...{{spoiler|before he [[Sixth Ranger|became a good guy]].}}
** However, his entire over-the-top villainous persona makes sense when you discover that {{spoiler|1=he thinks the Digital World isn't real, more like a very interactive [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|video game]]. His constant [[Kick the Dog]]-ery is similar to any ''[[Marathon Trilogy|Marathon]]'' fan who shoots BOBs. His [[Heel Face Turn]] was immediate when he found out it was real and he never really forgave himself.}}
* Happōsai from ''[[Ranma One Half½]]'' has no motivation for being an asshole and enjoys making peoples' lives miserable, even more so when his students take the fall for him. He, at one point, declares himself "evil 'till the day [he] die[s]".
* Pixy Misa in the ''[[Pretty Sammy]]'' series is the self-professed evil mistress of chaos and destruction
* Ladd Russo from ''[[Baccano]]!'' is a [[Large Ham|hammy ]][[Psycho for Hire]] who freely admits that all he loves is killing, killing, and more killing. When his uncle tells him "Homicidal lunatics think you're a nutcase!" He informs him that his "[[Insult Backfire|attempts at flattery are so ham handed]]."
Line 357:
* The Genma of the ''[[Onimusha]]'' series revel in being referred to as "evil", most notably in the second game (evident by the final boss being the Golden Evil Statue, and also by the content of some in-game documents).
* Gnarl of ''[[Overlord]]'', in a [[Large Ham|most over-the-top manner]]. He takes such great delight in evil for the sake of evil.
* [[Up to Eleven|ALL]] of the antagonists in [[HerosHero's Realm]] fit the bill, but special mention goes to Balthalas, who sports a fantastic [[Evil Laugh]] to boot.
* Bio-Haz, in the obscure Game Boy RPG ''Great Greed'', is a textbook [[Evil Overlord]] trying to conquer Greene Kingdom, and he's generating as much pollution as possible because it makes him and his army stronger. {{spoiler|It's not until the end of the game that you learn he has another motive besides his [[Title Drop|great greed]]; he wants to save the ''human'' world from pollution by using Greene Kingdom as its garbage dump.}}
* Ridley, and most of the Space Pirates for that matter, in ''[[Metroid]]'' seems to have no other motivation for trying to (ostensibly) take over the galaxy, other than that it's an evil thing to do. They commit horrors and atrocities just for the pure fun of it (although some games suggest most of the Pirates are just a mindless drone race following the orders of dominant intelligent figures like Ridley). Sometimes, a motivation will be supplied from the villain of the week, but usually, they're there, they're bad, kill'em all and reap your rewards.
