** C: Most of his victims aren't the kind of people who would even consider attacking a [[Humanoid Abomination]], but a few have tried - and failed. As [[Can You See the Words|Steph]] told the [[Everyman HYBRID|HYBRID boys]], "I don't think he has a weakness."

* Theodore Feswick from ''The Last Lamia'' could never be touched by Jason and Amali...even though they were the two people that he had hurt the most. He does eventually end up being killed by the Advocate, but his death is rather mild compared to everything he had put his victims through. Especially since many of his victims had ended up losing their minds.<br />

* David Xanatos of ''[[Gargoyles]]'' lets you know it's all in [[The Plan]] - ''[[Trope Namer|his plan]]''.

** ... for about the first season and a half, anyway. Xanatos's growing [[Pet the Dog]] tendencies and habit of teaming up with the heroes [[Villain Decay|took their toll]], until by the later episodes, Xanatos showing up in a plot usually meant some other villain outmaneuvering him, and he needed help. The real bearer of this trope is his creation Thailog - it generally takes into the second episode with him to realize that the drow-looking palette swap of Goliath with all the original's strength and skill, plus all of Xanatos's intelligence, who always effortlessly manipulates everyone is not a bad fan fic, but a [[Canon Sue|Canon]] [[Villain Sue]].

* The Flying Dutchman in ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''. Outfighting, outsmarting, or even fleeing this cursed pirate is beyond the ability of ''any'' resident of Bikini Bottom. They simply learn to live with him and ''hope'' he's in a good mood when he shows up.

* [[Bounty Hunter|Muktar]] from ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]''. The good guys were never able to truly outfight or outsmart him. In his first appearance, they "won" because his employer told him to back down (giving him no reason to fight them), while the second time, he changed his mind on his own.
