History HarmlessVillain / WesternAnimation

** Crocker was initially portrayed as a legitimate threat (only being surpassed by [[BabysitterFromHell Vicky]] in terms of threat level) who was only regarded as an idiot due to CassandraTruth, but thanks to {{Flanderization}} he's become this full-on to the point of even playing the Coyote role in a RoadRunnerVsCoyote plot in one episode.
** Dark Laser is another example. The only times he really presents a threat are when he's working with another villain.

** Evil Cosmo. He's even a failure at [[PokeThePoodle poking the Cat]].

* Freaky Fred, a oneshot villain from ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'', for the given value of villain. While he's definitely [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} eccentric]] and carries an all-around creepy presence, he isn't evil, and he doesn't even try to harm anyone he comes across -- the only "threat" he poses is that he has a rather disturbing obsession with [[PokeThePoodle shaving all the hair off of people and animals]]. Heck, he gets defeated because he refuses to shave Courage's stubby tail, which he finds to be "weird".

** All of that said, "Phineas and Ferb's Quantum Boogaloo" shows us that without Perry to oppose him, he can be much more dangerous. (Granted, that was a unique situation, since, depending on your interpretation, it's implied that the citizens of Danville ''asked'' him to rule them out of fear for their children.)

* ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' [[DoubleSubversion Double-Subverts this regarding]] the Toiletnator. He is as threatening as he sounds. It isn’t so much that he's harmless, but he just isn't that evil; being more a threat to his own team. Mr. Boss once alluded to an incident where he let Numbuh One into the villains' secret lair when Numbuh One's only disguise was a t-shirt with the words "I am not Numbuh One" written on it. "[[Recap/CodenameKidsNextDoorS4E1BOperationFLUSH Operation: F.L.U.S.H.]]" showed he can actually be competent and dangerous -- but he ends up destroying his own side with his stupidity. In "[[Recap/CodenameKidsNextDoorS5E7AOperationCANYON Operation: C.A.N.Y.O.N.]]", he successfully drained the Grand Canyon of milk when the Kids Next Door organization planned to turn it into a giant bowl of milk and cereal.

** The Toilenator is so pathetic, he can't even claim the title of "[[OverlyNarrowSuperlative Best Toilet-Based Villain]]". In "Operation: A.W.A.R.D.S.", he was nominated for the title in an awards ceremony held by the other villains but lost to Potty Mouth.
