* Plankton from [[SpongeBob SquarePants]] by season 7 and onwards. In seasons 1-3 he was very effective villain, but in seasons 4-6 he suffered [[Villain Decay]], but starting with season 7 he returns to his threatening and menacing self, particulary in episodes "Frozen-Face Off", "Spongebob's Last Stand" and "One Coarse Meal". In "Frozen-Face Off", he {{spoiler|[[Xanatos Gambit|he organized entire race as a distraction so he could steal Krabby Patty formula without trouble and interference]] and in order to throw off the suspicion, he placed his [[Actually a Doombot|robot doppelganger]] to participate in the race and it took all the main characters to stop his plans.}}. In "Spongebob's Last Stand" he built a super highway, which directly led to Chum Bucket, and it drove away all jellyfish from their fields and took over entire town and almost all of Bikini Bottom's population supported him. It was so evil that Mr. Krabs was going to give the secret formula ''willingly''. Both episodes were more dramatic and serious than most other episodes in the series. Even in "One Coarse Meal", the episode where Mr. Krabs [[Moral Event Horizon]] by driving Plankton to suicide, Plankton was very effective villain. To clarify: he drops a powerful explosive the size of a TV remote on the Krusty Krab's roof; he is said to build a transmutator (a machine with the power to make an element in nature into another element, like iron into gold, fire into air, etc.); and a robotic bomb-shaped object that is actually a disguised, robotic, telescopic claw that can crush a sea creature. And at the end of the episodes, Plankton {{spoiler|used mime to scare Mr. Krabs, who is afraid of mimes, and judging by Krabs' reaction, his phobia of mimes is bigger than Plankton's phobia of whales, since Mr. Krabs was completely irrational, while Plankton managed to stay rational and not go crazy like Krabs did }}. This unintentionnaly foreshadows that Plankton will become much more monstrous and effective and this will lead into the events of the movie, which is the [[Grand Finale]] of the series. |

* Don't expect the [[Contested Sequel|show's]] [[Fan Dumb|haters]] to admit it, but [[Ben 10|Ben Tennyson]] ''did'' took some level in badass in [[Ben 10: Alien Force]]; in the original show, he was a 10 years old immature kid with a very limited control on his powers, who would easily make himself look ridiculous or ending up in distress when the Omnitrix stopped working. In Alien Force, he has grown up into a responsible leader, has much better control over the Omnitrix, and is a competent fighter even without the Omnitrix, as well as much skilled to use the aliens. As an annoying side effect however, it resulted in some of his allies and enemies, especially [[Redemption Demotion|Kevin 11]] and [[Arch Enemy|Vilgax]], to suffer [[Villain Decay]]. Presumably because of fans' reaction, Ben then [[Took a Level In Dumbass]] in season 3 due to a fail attempt to make him more like his original series' self. |

* In ''[[Adventure Time]]'', Cinnamon Bun starts out as a dimwitted, clumsy candy-person, due to being "half-baked". Eventually, however, this moniker proves to be [[Not Hyperbole]], as when he is hit by a blast of fire, he becomes ''fully'' baked, turning him into a strong, capable, and courageous hero. |
