One person or group considers another person or group as [[The Rival|their rival]], and will not allow anyone else to be the one to defeat them. This can sometimes lead to them [[Rivals Team Up|helping their rival]] [[Enemy Mine|against other enemies]], justifying it with [[I Was Just Passing Through|a lame excuse]], to make sure that they survive until the final battle between the rivals. Sometimes, this trope can become the basis of a [[Heel Face Turn]]. It also frequently leads to [[Not So Different]] and [[Antagonist in Mourning]].

* ''[[Danny Phantom]]''. Skulker is constantly agreeing to work together with Danny and co. in order to save the world, Ghost Zone, or [[The End of the World as We Know It|anything else on a massive enough scale to matter]]. Normally these occurrences are justified by the fact that EVERYONE would die if all the bad guys didn't help, but he tries to make excuses anyway.
* ''[[Transformers]]''. Especially in the Unicron Trilogy, it seems like Megatron always seems to single out Optimus in combat. Also, in the third series of [[The Original Series]], Cyclonus occasionally saved the life of Ultra Magnus because so he could be the one to kill him.
