[[Designated Girl Fight]] is a related trope.

▲{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In the second season of ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', when the Sailor senshi face the Ayakashi sisters. Every senshi fights the sister who has similar powers and serves as her Evil Counterpart: Koan uses Dark fire against Mars, Bertier uses Dark water against Mercury, Calaveras uses Dark whip/chain against Venus and Petz utilizes Dark thunder against Jupiter.
* Many fights in ''[[One Piece]]'' function along these lines, to the point where once combatants on both sides are known, it can be predicted who will have each fight. Most crews fought by the protagonists, for example, seem to have a clear (physical fighter) leader, a [[Knife Nut]], and another physical fighter, to match up with Captain Luffy, swordsman Zoro and [[Extremity Extremist|kicking guy]] Sanji. The Blackbeard Pirates are expected to have this kind of fight with the Straw Hats, thanks to the number of analogues.
== [[Live
* This pops up from time to time in ''[[Super Sentai]] / [[Power Rangers]]'' whenever there's a squad of [[Psycho Rangers]].
** In the "[[My Way Entertainment|Gangsta Crizzab]]" episode, the [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers]] are beaten by their counterparts in a straight up fight. Instead of trying any confusion, they have to go back and get empowered weapons from Zordon, which pretty much breaks their rule of "don't escalate fights when you don't have to". The parody lampshades this with quotes like "It's time for some ''Black on Black crime!''"
