* GoodCounterpart: Taken to almost literal levels with the trio of forest Malamar, who seem to be just as powerful and intelligent as the evil Malamar. However while the evil trio are sadistic {{Card Carrying Villain}}s who want to convert the world to befit them with no interest for other life, the good trio live in peace with their neighbouring Pokemon and the rest of nature.
