History EvilTwin / VideoGames

* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'' has Beowulf, the [[MirrorUniverse Shadow Mirror universe]] version of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke Nambu]]. In ''Original Generation 2'', he's shown to pretty much be identical to Kyosuke, but ''[[UpdatedRerelease Original Generations]]'' and ''[[AnimatedAdaptation The Inspector]]'' is [[AxCrazy completely psycho]] and obsessed with destroying and recreating the world. The explanation for Psycho!Beowulf is pure ForWantOfANail: [[spoiler:In both universes, Kyosuke and Excellen were in a terrible shuttle accident. In the main universe, Kyosuke survived due to his [[BornLucky incredible luck]] while Excellen was technically killed and brought back to life by the plant-like aliens called the Einst. In Shadow Mirror's world, the Einst grabbed Kyosuke instead, while Excellen's corpse was turned into the android [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lemon Browning]]; without the balancing influence of her lighter personality, Kyosuke went off the deep end.]] So far he's only made brief appearances, but fans speculate that he'll become a prominent villain in future games.

* The HiddenObjectGame series ''VideoGame/{{Empress of the Deep}}'' reveals that Anna, the protagonist and TheChosenOne, has an evil twin sister named Pandora, who attacked her in a jealous rage and put her in a coma for over 100 years. The story of the games has Anna navigating her way through the empty settings and foiling her sister's plans to destroy her.

* A bit of a reversal from the ''VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams'' series: the titular character is the ''good twin'' of a pair of nightmares. The evil half of the pair, Reala, who was created alongside the purple dream jester [=NiGHTS=] to with a similar appearance, and the same abilities. After [=NiGHTS=] began to fight against Wiseman, Reala was granted the ability to summon exploding orbs to gain an edge over [[PronounTrouble his/her/its]] twin.

* The plot of ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' is all about this. The protagonist and his maniacal twin are the products of research into "soldier genes". The hero, Snake, was supposedly modified to have the strongest possible soldier phenotype, and the maniacal Liquid Snake was meant to be the weakest. It's subverted twice:
** At the end of the first game, it's revealed that Liquid was actually the superior twin.
** And ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2'' [[spoiler: reveals a third 'twin', also not very nice.]]
** Well, it's not a clear-cut Evil Twin, more like Liquid's just more evil than Solid Snake, since Solid Snake himself is technically an evil twin in his own respect, given the fact that he was a clone of Big Boss, and that it was heavily implied in Metal Gear Solid that he does actually enjoy war and all the killing, and the implications came from Psycho Mantis, Liquid Snake, and even one of his own allies, Meryl Silverburgh. However, even Liquid being more evil is completely debatable, given the fact that Psycho Mantis also mentioned that Solid Snake was true evil, and that he was even worse than Liquid Snake.

* In the ''VideoGame/NancyDrew'' game ''Stay Tuned For Danger'', actor (and suspect) Rick Arlen plays good and evil twins on the [[ShowWithinAShow soap opera]] ''Light Of Our Love''.
* Sega's other mascot, [[VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams NiGHTS]], has an evil twin called Reala, who was created alongside the purple dream jester to with a similar appearance, and the same abilities. After the neutral protagonist began to fight against Wiseman, Reala was granted the ability to summon exploding orbs to gain an edge over [[PronounTrouble his/her/its]] twin.
** A bit of a reversal from the ''VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams'' series. The titular character is the ''good twin'' of a pair of nightmares.

* VideoGame/Sailor Moon: Another Story: The Opposito are evil doubles of the Inner Senshi and even have one that is a evil double of Usagi's brother Shingo.

** In ''VideoGame/Persona4'', ''every single person in existence'' -- except, it seems, the Protagonist [[spoiler: until the final episode of the anime]] -- has an evil twin called a "Shadow" born of their repressed feelings and thoughts. Get stuck in the [[MentalWorld TV world]], and you'll end up meeting it.

* ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 4|A Promise Unforgotten}}'', [[spoiler: has Des X, who differentiates herself from her far more likable counterpart Desco with a pale color scheme, a cold personality, and a mature voice that is not fitting for her [[{{Moe}} appearance]].]]
* This was the whole point of the series ''Two'': The evil one is the first to discover he has a twin, and frames him for his own crimes.
* ''VideoGame/BodyHarvest'': The Man in the Black Suit. [[spoiler:Revealed to be ''literally'' your evil twin at the end of the game. The invading aliens sampled a droplet of Adam's blood that was shed during the game's intro sequence, and used it to create a perfect copy of him]].
* ''VideoGame/CubeColossus'': Millie, the twin of protagonist Rua Elzee, who's been possessed by the giant cube they're fighting inside, as revealed about halfway through the game.
* In all of the ''VideoGame/{{Scribblenauts}}'' games, if the player tries to create "Maxwell" as an object (he is the protagonist), it will create Maxwell's evil twin, who has a different colour scheme to Maxwell and will create random objects using his own notepad.
* The plot of ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' is all about this. The protagonist and his maniacal twin are the products of research into "soldier genes". The hero, Snake, was supposedly modified to have the strongest possible soldier phenotype, and the maniacal Liquid Snake was meant to be the weakest. It's subverted twice:
** At the end of the first game, it's revealed that Liquid was actually the superior twin.
** And ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2'' [[spoiler: reveals a third 'twin', also not very nice.]]

However, even Liquid being more evil is completely debatable, given the fact that Psycho Mantis also mentioned that Solid Snake was true evil, and that he was even worse than Liquid Snake.
* In ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', players that use a transporter to Gadgetzan can be turned into their evil twin. Blizzard neglected to add goatees to the character models, unfortunately. As a BrickJoke, there's a female gnome imprisoned in Talramas in Borean Tundra, and when she attempts to escape she accidentally releases her Evil Twin. Said twin can later be fought in Hrothgar's Landing near Icecrown as part of a quest given by The Leaper after the Knights of the Ebon Blade take control of the Shadow Vault.
** Due to GameplayAndStorySegregation, being turned into your Evil Twin by the "Ultrasafe" transporter does not affect the game or your character at all. It just gives you a harmless temporary debuff with amusing text stating you've been turned into your evil twin.
* A common theme in ''VideoGame/ZoneOfTheEnders'': The main player's HumongousMecha with a decidedly intelligent AI whose cockpit [[FallingIntoTheCockpit he ends up in]] is always part of a pair created for a specific purpose. Guess where the other one ends up?
* In ''VideoGame/SilentHill3'', Heather meets and fights her twin, which appears to be [[spoiler:incarnate ''Memories of Alessa'', as Heather and Alessa are basically the same person (nuances exist, however)]].
* Done in ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'' [[spoiler:when the well dressed Irish-brogue accented swordsman Henry says he's your twin brother... in the last three minutes of the game. Plus, considering how the Touchdown/Crystel/Whatever brothers behave it's hard to tell which one is evil. Also, it is probably the greatest parody of [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante and Vergil]] you'll ever see.]]

* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'' has Beowulf, the [[MirrorUniverse Shadow Mirror universe]] version of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke Nambu]]. In ''Original Generation 2'', he's shown to pretty much be identical to Kyosuke, but ''[[UpdatedRerelease Original Generations]]'' and ''[[AnimatedAdaptation The Inspector]]'' is [[AxCrazy completely psycho]] and obsessed with destroying and recreating the world. The explanation for Psycho!Beowulf is pure ForWantOfANail: [[spoiler:In both universes, Kyosuke and Excellen were in a terrible shuttle accident. In the main universe, Kyosuke survived due to his [[BornLucky incredible luck]] while Excellen was technically killed and brought back to life by the plant-like aliens called the Einst. In Shadow Mirror's world, the Einst grabbed Kyosuke instead, while Excellen's corpse was turned into the android [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lemon Browning]]; without the balancing influence of her lighter personality, Kyosuke went off the deep end.]] So far he's only made brief appearances, but fans speculate that he'll become a prominent villain in future games.
* Mona Sax, the "knockout FemmeFatale" of ''VideoGame/MaxPayne'', introduces herself as the "evil twin" of Lisa Punchinello, the Don's wife. Lisa is killed by the Don near the end of the second act, and Mona shows up later during the [[StormingTheCastle final assault on the Aesir building]], where she does a HeelFaceTurn and apparently dies, only to show up again in the sequel, in which she plays a major role as Max's partner/love interest.

* Subverted in ''VideoGame/SagaFrontier'' with Blue and Rouge. Blue is one of the seven main characters. Rouge is a secondary character. They are doomed to fight each other to the death. [[spoiler:Now, since Blue is a main character, you'd think he's the good one, right? ''Wrong''. Blue is very willing to manipulate others for his own means, whereas Rouge is a friendly, personable guy who will join others on their quest.]] Subverted further in that [[spoiler:the two are different halves of the same person, split at birth -- several types of magic in the Saga Frontier world are mutually exclusive, so if you learn one type, you can't learn the other; splitting him in two lets both halves learn different types (and Blue is told early on that if Rouge learns a type of magic, Blue ''can't''). The "fight to the death" is actually how the two recombine.]]
* [[DefiedTrope Defied]] by Dark Pit from ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising''. The Mirror of Truth broke before the "evil" part could be finished, spitting out a WildCard ShadowArchetype whose very first act is an OffhandBackhand to his creator. He was supposed to be Dark Link, but ended up as Shadow the Hedgehog.
* About halfway through ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal''. Clank gets kidnapped by BigBad Dr. Nefarious and replaced by a duplicate, Klunk. Ratchet even plays a few levels with [[TheMole Klunk on his back]] before finding the real Clank and defeating Klunk in a boss battle. Klunk later returns in the [[AlternateContinuity non-canon]] ''VideoGame/SecretAgentClank'' as the BigBad, now sporting a BeardOfEvil.
** The SoapWithinAShow mentions that Lance has an evil twin named Engelbert, who fathered Janice's child. It is implied that Lance made him up, though Engelbert is mentioned in TheStinger for ''VideoGame/RatchetDeadlocked''.
* ''VideoGame/BanjoTooie'' had the Jinjos' evil twins the Minjos, and one of the bosses in the game was Mumbo Jumbo's evil robotic twin Mingy Jongo.
* Statesman, the resident [[AlternateCompanyEquivalent Superman equivalent]] and BigGood of ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'', has ''two'' evil twins: Tyrant, the DimensionLord of the MirrorUniverse, and Reichsman, the little-seen [[ThoseWackyNazis Nazi version]] from the [[StupidJetpackHitler dimension where the Nazis won]]. Naturally, pretty much every high-profile hero in the game has an evil counterpart in Tyrant's dimension, as the Praetorians. And as of Issue 17, every player character -- hero and villain -- can run a story arc featuring multiple iterations of his or her own Evil Twin. Heroes will also encounter a good doppelganger during their arc.
* In ''VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia'', actors-turned-robbers Vize, Anita, and Faina appear as {{Palette Swap}}s to heroes Vyse, Aika, and Fina, which has unfortunate results for the silhouettes on the Wanted poster (even though the heroes are already wanted as pirates, [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything sort of]]). Turns out they even mirror several of the heroes' moves. When you beat them, [[spoiler:they make a legitimate business out of looking like you]].
** They're also pretty darn tough to beat; though having a fourth party member helps lean the odds to your side.
* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** One of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII's'' plot twists was that [[spoiler:Basch, a leading soldier in the home nation's army, was framed by his evil twin brother in the murder of the king, resulting in Basch's imprisonment and nationwide condemnation.]]
*** He does [[spoiler: [[HeelFaceTurn become a little less evil]] [[RedemptionEqualsDeath right around the endgame, though.]]]]
** ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'' has Lumina, who bears an eerie resemblance to Lightning's sister Serah [[spoiler:who died in the previous game]]. She constantly antagonizes Lightning, but [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold shows a bit of a lighter side in her actions]]. Turns out her resemblance is because [[spoiler:Lightning subconsciously created Lumina from her desire to seal away her "weaknesses", with Lumina becoming a vessel for Serah's soul]].
** The Manikins of ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'', living (though not sentient) crystal lifeforms that can take on the form of anyone who gets too close might count.
* In the VideoGame/NancyDrew game ''Stay Tuned For Danger'', actor (and suspect) Rick Arlen plays good and evil twins on the [[ShowWithinAShow soap opera]] ''Light Of Our Love''.
* In ''VideoGame/Persona4'', ''every single person in existence'' -- except, it seems, the Protagonist [[spoiler: until the final episode of the anime]] -- has an evil twin called a "Shadow" born of their repressed feelings and thoughts. Get stuck in the [[MentalWorld TV world]], and you'll end up meeting it.
* ''VideoGame/Persona2'' also had evil Shadows based off people's inner selves, though their abilities and the circumstances behind their appearance are somewhat different.
* Sega's other mascot, [[VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams NiGHTS]] has an evil twin called Reala, who was created alongside the purple dream jester to with a similar appearance, and the same abilities. After the neutral protagonist began to fight against Wiseman, Reala was granted the ability to summon exploding orbs to gain an edge over [[PronounTrouble his/her/its]] twin.
** A bit of a reversal from the ''VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams'' series. The titular character is the ''good twin'' of a pair of nightmares.

* ''[[VideoGame/JetSetRadio Jet Set Radio: Future]]'' has NT-3000, a robotic doppleganger of Yoyo that infiltrates the [=GGs=] when the Rokakku kidnap the real Yoyo ("NT" being short for "Noise Tanks", a rival gang).
* In ''VideoGame/TombRaiderI'' and ''VideoGame/TombRaiderAnniversary'', Lara's Doppelganger has no skin. In ''[[VideoGame/TombRaiderUnderworld Underworld]]'', she gets better, blows up Lara's mansion, kicks her ass inside of her burning mansion, and kills [[spoiler:Allister]]. Later, [[EnsembleDarkhorse the Doppelganger]] gets her own game on Xbox Live.
* [[SdrawkcabName Xitra Regeirk]], the BigBad of the ''VideoGame/AdventureQuest'' Bizarre Flecks StoryArc is Artix's AlternateUniverse counterpart; while the Artix of our reality is an [[TheUndead undead]]-[[HunterOfMonsters slaying]] paladin, Artix is a sadistic {{necromancer}} who appears to have [[VillainWorld successfully]] [[TakeOverTheWorld taken over his world]]. Ryuusei's analog from said arc is an [[InvertedTrope inversion]], and an interesting and competent one at that.
* ''VideoGame/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAsPortable'': Nanoha, Fate and Hayate got their very own Evil Twins in the form of The Darkness of the Book of Darkness copies Material-S(tarlight), Material-L(ightning) and Material-D(arkness), respectively, in the PSP game ''Battle of the Aces''. They are identical to their good analogues, except that they are stronger, their skills can't be customized, they have different hair and clothes colors, and their personalities are complete opposites of the originals ([[TheSpock Material-S is coldly logical]], Material-L is TheBerserker, and Material-D [[BigBad is just plain evil]]). The sequel, ''The Gears of Destiny'', [[DivergentCharacterEvolution would make them a bit more unique]], with names, individualized movesets, and more complex personalities.
* ''VideoGame/EvilTwinCypriensChronicles'' is an entire game revolving around this trope. The hero winds up in another world where he fights evil versions of his friends [[spoiler:and himself.]]
* ''VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe'' has "Another Joe", who looks just like Joe to the point the original makes a deal with him: loser has to wear a yellow outfit. His boss theme is even a BossRemix of "Joe the Hero". [[spoiler:It's actually Alastor.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Borderlands}}'': Dr. Zed and his evil MadScientist brother Dr. Ned ([[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial who is a totally different, in no way made up person]], [[RunningGag and not just Dr. Zed in a cheap mustache disguise]]) qualify for this trope.
* In ''VideoGame/PokemonColosseum'', the TrueFinalBoss is [[spoiler:Fein, a Cipher Peon who is a MasterOfDisguise. He disguises himself as Wes to try to ruin Wes' reputation, and almost succeeds, but after Wes himself defeats him at the Outskirt Stand on live television, the truth comes out, and the citizens of Orre forgive him. Fein has the most powerful team of Pokemon in the game, and holds the final Shadow Pokemon, a Togetic.]]
* In ''VideoGame/SpaceAce'', Dexter has a clone named Hexter. He energizes into a bigger form when Dexter energizes into Ace (Should you choose to do so).
* ''VideoGame/DuelSaviorDestiny'': [[spoiler:Rico/Oltara]] has an Evil Twin of sorts in the form of Imnity. Introduced in the fifth chapter, she is a spirit that is opposite but mostly identical to her 'twin' that follows a different set of rules and has a parallel goal. The evil bit is slightly questionable, though, since she genuinely believes she's doing the right thing and doesn't appear particularly sadistic.

* In ''VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet'' guest players get a subtitle based on their controller number, like Best Friend. Playing as a guest on the number one controller nets you this title. One of the titles is also "Good Twin."

* Absolute Zeroth ''VideoGame/LegacyOfHeroes'' [[spoiler: He's actually a second Zeroth that separated from the original]]
* The HiddenObjectGame series ''Empress of the Deep'' reveals that Anna, the protagonist and TheChosenOne, has an evil twin sister named Pandora, who attacked her in a jealous rage and put her in a coma for over 100 years. The story of the games has Anna navigating her way through the empty settings and foiling her sister's plans to destroy her.
* In ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'', the BigBad of the ''Citadel DLC'' is [[spoiler: a Cerberus-created Clone of Commander Shepard, [[IJustWantToBeSpecial jealous]] about being created simply as a WalkingTransplant for them and now hell-bent on [[KillAndReplace replacing]] the original. In a realistic touch, the clone comments that while they have the same DNA, their fingerprints are different.]].

* ''[[UpdatedRerelease Ultra]] VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' gives us Decapre, who serves as this to Cammy.
* Neifirst from ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarII'' is the main personality of Nei. When Neifirst goes berserk and creates biomonster outbreak, her good part rejects her actions and splits up into the CuteMonsterGirl who joins your team.
* In ''VideoGame/AlanWakesAmericanNightmare'' the villain Mr. Scratch is a HumanoidAbomination variation on an EnemyWithout, wearing the protagonist's shape to manipulate events in service of a larger EldritchAbomination, though his roots in Alan's psyche mean he's hopeful of attempting a KillAndReplace.

* You encounter Dark versions of various characters in ''VideoGame/MarvelUltimateAlliance'', including ComicBook/CaptainAmerica, ComicBook/SpiderMan, and all of the ComicBook/FantasticFour, mostly created by [[BigBad Dr. Doom]]. They also appear occasionally in the simulator discs, usually with no real explanation (in Dark Spider-Man's case, he presumably appeared in ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'s simulator mission [[RuleOfFunny because he was the funniest option]]).
* Jimmy Lee in the NES version of ''VideoGame/DoubleDragonI'', being the "Shadow Boss" of the most powerful organised crime gang in New York. [[HeelFaceTurn One ass-kicking by his brother Billy later, he goes legit.]]

* In the fourth ''VideoGame/DetectivesUnited'' game, it's revealed that Agent Brown has a twin brother, Mortimer, who is wreaking havoc on a small community called Restville. Naturally, SpotTheImposter comes into play as part of the story -- the difficulty is enhanced by the fact that the twins, who have the same voice, are also both ''[[spoiler:invisible]]''.
* A version of this shows up in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' during the Gauntlet. As one of the final challenges before the party reaches the last chamber, they are forced to contend with evil mirrors of themselves. (Which ones appear, and consequently what abilities they have, depends on who is in the active party.) Companion Leliana may comment on it afterward, noting that "the other me" had a truly evil expression on her face, and begging to be assured that she herself doesn't really look like that.
* There's an unused [[MechaMooks enemy robot]] in the game data for ''VideoGame/{{Descent}}'' II that is literally called the "Evil Twin". It's a green-tinted version of the [[RobotBuddy Guidebot]] that is programmed to [[ActionBomb charge the player and explode]].
* ''Videogame/CavesOfQud:'' One of the Defects you can get in character generation (to get more points for Mutations) is "Evil Twin", which imposes a chance that, whenever you go anywhere, a doppelganger from an alternate but very close universe will pounce and try to kill you, using copies of your items and mutations. There's ways to deal with such things, though it's particularly dangerous for Espers as they both have massively destructive powers at range (and thus could nuke you before you can nuke them if the map is unfavorable), and because with [[MagicIsAMonsterMagnet Psychic Glimmer]] they didn't ''need'' any more horrible psychic ambushers.

* In ''VideoGame/TombRaider'' and ''Tomb Raider Anniversary'', Lara's Doppelganger has no skin. In ''Underworld,'' she gets better, blows up Lara's mansion, kicks her ass inside of her burning mansion, and kills [[spoiler:Allister]]. Later, [[EnsembleDarkhorse the Doppelganger]] gets her own game on Xbox Live.

* There's an unused [[MechaMooks enemy robot]] in the game data for ''VideoGame/{{Descent}}'' II that is literally called the "Evil Twin". It's a green-tinted version of the [[RobotBuddy Guidebot]] that is programmed to [[ActionBomb charge the player and explode]].

* ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'' has Lumina, who bears an eerie resemblance to Lightning's sister Serah [[spoiler:who died in the previous game]]. She constantly antagonizes Lightning, but [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold shows a bit of a lighter side in her actions]]. Turns out her resemblance is because [[spoiler:Lightning subconsciously created Lumina from her desire to seal away her "weaknesses", with Lumina becoming a vessel for Serah's soul]].

* [[SdrawkcabName Xitra Regeirk]], the BigBad of the ''VideoGame/AdventureQuest'' Bizarre Flecks StoryArc is Artix's AlternateUniverse counterpart; while the Artix of our reality is an [[TheUndead undead]]-[[HunterOfMonsters slaying]] paladin, [[FanNickname Artix von Facial Hair]] is a sadistic {{necromancer}} who appears to have [[VillainWorld successfully]] [[TakeOverTheWorld taken over his world]]. Ryuusei's analog from said arc is an [[InvertedTrope inversion]], and an interesting and competent one at that.

* Sega's other mascot,[[VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams NiGHTS]] has an evil twin called Reala, who was created alongside the purple dream jester to with a similar appearance, and the same abilities. After the neutral protagonist began to fight against Wiseman, Reala was granted the ability to summon exploding orbs to gain an edge over [[PronounTrouble his/her/its]] twin.

* About halfway through ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal''. Clank gets kidnapped by BigBad Dr. Nefarious and replaced by a duplicate, Klunk. Ratchet even plays a few levels with [[TheMole Klunk on his back]] before finding the real Clank and defeating Klunk in a boss battle. Klunk later returns in the [[AlternateContinuity non-canon]] ''VideoGame/SecretAgentClank as the BigBad, now sporting a BeardOfEvil.

** ''[[VideoGame/PiuyoPuyoChronicle Chronicle]]'' gives us Rafisol, a manifestation of hate that spawned from Ally's amulet and serves as the FinalBoss of the game. Unlike the above examples though, [[spoiler:she actually pulls off a HeelFaceTurn after her defeat]].

** ''Puyo~n'' (and by extension the original ''VideoGame/MadouMonogatari'' series) has Doppelganger Arle, who masqueraded as Pierrot, brainwashed Satan, and kidnapped Carbuncle to lure out Arle and personally battle her.

** ''Chronicle'' gives us Rafisol, a manifestation of hate that spawned from Ally's amulet and serves as the FinalBoss of the game. Unlike the above examples though, [[spoiler:she actually pulls off a HeelFaceTurn after her defeat]].

** ''Puyo~n'' (and by extension the original ''Madou Monogatari'' series) has Doppelganger Arle, who masqueraded as Pierrot, brainwashed Satan, and kidnapped Carbuncle to lure out Arle and personally battle her.
