Some evil mad scientists use their twisted intellect solely for personal gain. This particular villain is not so provincial. His genius and his motives go hand in hand, and his concerns are with the welfare of the human species (or so he thinks). Simply put, to the Evilutionary Biologist, humanity is stuck in an evolutionary rut, and it's up to him to put us back on the proper path so we can continue to evolve.
Why the Evilutionary Biologist believes this is necessary varies, as do his methods. Some Evilutionary Biologists simply believe that humanity has erred in its domination of the environment, and thus our very survival as a species is threatened unless they force us to continue evolving. Others see change and so-called improvement as goals in and of themselves and resolve to use scientific advancement to cause them. Still others seek to create a new race of biologically superior transhumans or just the Ultimate Life Form with the power of science, either because they see humans as having outlived their time on the planet or because of a genuine desire to improve the human condition. Some will just be a Maker of Monsters. They often subscribe to the philosophies of Social Darwinism and "The Ends Justify the Means". It's not uncommon for them to practice what they preach and marry someone they see as fit and worthy for them.
Regardless, because of his dedication, the Evilutionary Biologist is willing to break laws, engage in experimental alterations upon other human beings, and ruin lives for the higher goal. Their creations are no less exempt; whether they're Replacement Goldfish, with Clone Angst, or genetically "programmed" to have evil, their "children" are doomed to live sad, short, rebellious lives, unless they really do feel parental. They will never realize that Evil Evolves and will never be able to identify themselves as the villains.
Evilutionary Biologists often create inhuman monsters and artificial humans to serve as minions and Mooks, as well as to populate their extensive Garden of Evil. They themselves may even be willing to suffer the fruits of their experimentation, often resulting in a monstrous, inhuman new body.
Whenever an Evilutionary Biologist appears on the scene — they are the most common form of villainous biologist in many games and Speculative Fiction media — be on guard for a Science Is Bad aesop to rear its ugly head. They might as well be Eco-Terrorist who believes too much in nature, if their disregard for everything led to them carrying out sorts of terrorism.
This is especially ironic because in real biology, one of the core precepts of the theory of evolution is that it does not "improve" a species, because there is no such thing as an ideal form for a species — only what is bestnote Or rather "good enough". Products of evolution are often The Alleged Car of the natural world. Go figure. at surviving and reproducing in current conditions. If the environment changes, the species must adapt all over again, which is why genetic diversity (Nature's way of "hedging her bets") is usually a good thing.
Moreover, assuming that a species must evolve if subjected to imposed selection pressures (or Applied Phlebotinum-induced mutations) overlooks the harsh fact that most organisms don't adapt in the face of such challenges: they simply go extinct, which is why we're not rubbing elbows with mammoths, sauropods and trilobites today. Deliberately applying such selective forces to humans may let us join them in extinction, not improve upon our current state.
Finally, evolution is conservative, and a species which is thriving (you know, like Homo sapiens) is unlikely to evolve new traits, because it's doing fine the way it is. Sharks, for example, haven't changed much since before the first dinosaurs appeared, and they're just as successful as ever... making the entire mania of the Evilutionary Biologist suspect at best.
Even so, Goal-Oriented Evolution was taken dead seriously by many back in the heyday of the eugenics movement (orthogenesis, the real evolutionary theory positing it, was tossed around for some time), and still gets cited by people who really ought to know better (Singularitarians are frequently guilty of it), along with being a common misconception of how natural selection works.
Examples of this trope will probably be German, and possibly one of Those Wacky Nazis, if we want to be really obvious.
Compare Designer Babies, Uplifted Animal, Super Breeding Program, Transhuman and Eco-Terrorist.

Fight Club: Tyler Durden has the motivation, but not the methodology. He believes society and rampant consumerism are stagnating human development. Rather than combat this with mad science, however, he plans to force humanity to "evolve, and let the chips fall where they may" by crashing the global economy.

Narbonic: Many mad scientists fall into this, some to create new life because it's somehow 'better', others because they just can. Helen Narbon, for example, likes gerbils, and one such product, Artie, notes how the gerbil is a much more ecologically sustainable form. Near the climax, a group of conservative-minded hamsters take this logic to its natural conclusion, seeking to wipe out almost all of humanity.

A Macabre Myth of a Moth-Man has no less than three. Vincent Mordein tried to unlock the secrets of the human brain and ended up sticking a penny-sized chip in Jack Daw's head, giving him the ability to control crows. Dr. Wu performed gene-splicing on multiple subjects, including Ozzy and Moth-man. And Dante Eclipse performed experiments on the cult he heads, believing that humanity is inherently flawed and that they must transcend their species to survive.

Boogiepop Series: The Towa Organization sees it as its duty to help push humanity forward in its evolution as well as seeking out and destroying the individuals who pose a threat to that goal. Much of the conflict in the series is the direct result of their actions, including the creation of Manticore, a human eating monster cloned from an alien. In the novels it seems that Towa wants to keep the "over-evolved" individuals in check and prevent the evolution of humanity in larger scale — ironically, they enforce this ideology with Synthetic Humans who have very little difference to the "over-evolved" individuals, except that most of them are absolutely loyal to Towa Organization.

Twig: Professor Hayle uses this philosophy in order to justify his decision to sink his departmental funding into six separate projects, children with Super-Intelligence who would act as a gestalt. The plan is that the most successful project will be kept and expanded upon in order to iteratively improve the human brain until a firmly superior product is produced, but the fact that his project takes years to come to fruition means he has much less academic clout than his colleagues, who produce plagues, superweapons, and armies of reanimated corpses.

Tokyo Ghoul: Dr. Akihiro Kanou is a Mad Scientist obsessed with the creation of superior Half Human Hybrids. His ghoulization experiments have an incredibly high mortality rate, with over a 1000 people killed in his efforts to create his hybrids. He claims that he's doing it to free humanity from their cagel; however, considering that he's a sociopath who readily lies to everyone around him, it's difficult to tell how much of this is true. His study at his old laboratory is filled with "hybrids" created by stitching together preserved insect bodies to create things like "Scorpion-Butterflies".

The Transformers Megaseries has Jhiaxus, who among other things introduced gender to Cybertron just because he could (never mind that the person he did this to went insane in the process), and Combining Mecha (which was also insane), not to mention turning an entire planet into a replica Cybertron. It's implied that he did this to more than one planet. Just because he wanted to accelerate Cybertronian evolution.

X-Men has a few examples of its own. Mister Sinister is the most obvious, a Victorian-era British eugenicist implied to be directly responsible for the abundance of mutants in the modern world due to the strange, forbidden experiments he conducted in his day. His benefactor Apocalypse is of the less scientific "fight to the death and prove your worth" variety. Magneto has also dabbled in this with his creation of the Mutates, genetically altered mutant Mooks created when the normal-variety mutants just weren't cutting it in his Super Supremacist army.

In The Dragon Doctors, Preston Chang turned himself into the Crax, a species that starts out as parasites until they grow to take control of their hosts and become amorphous blob creatures and can adapt to practically anything but cold, all so that Chang could become immortal. Kili, the shaman, faces Chang in the spirit world twice, the first time when removing a Crax from a patient; his spirit is driven off and the parasite defeated. The second time he just shows up and drags her through a bunch of painful memories in an attempt to drive her to surrender her body to him. Then she realizes that she was talking to a ghost — the Crax's hyper-fast evolution had determined that Chang's megalomaniacal mind was a weakness and discarded him, then evolved into harmless gut flora.

A Certain Magical Index: Aleister Crowley (yes, that one) is, in this universe, the founder and leader of Academy City, a scientifically advanced city located within Tokyo that is comprised mostly of students. Said students are espers whose studies are mainly focused on the development of Psychic Powers, which they gain through a combination of drug treatment and hypnosis, and the usefulness of which are ranked from Levels 1 through 5. Every esper is essentially a human guinea pig in a massive citywide experiment conducted by the scientists that run Academy City, who range from the amoral to the downright insane (the Kihara family), and Aleister himself is a former magician who turned his back on magic after growing disillusioned with a world in which humans allowed their destiny to be controlled by the magical "phases" that can affect a person's fortune. It's implied that his ultimate goal for the espers is to use the unique energy they unconsciously emit, known as AIM fields, to rid the world of magic, which he believes will direct humanity towards its ideal course in which people are freed from fate and mysticism, and the world is built up from the efforts of individuals rather than that of the gods.

Star Trek: Enterprise:
Dr. Arik Soong is the more benign flavor of Evilutionary Biologist, balking at his creations' evil natures. He later switches to machines, and his descendant in Star Trek: The Next Generation ends up being just a really innovative scientist (however, even his first creation turns evil).
Dr. Phlox in "Dear Doctor", in which he refuses to help the Valakians despite having a cure to the plague that's threatening to wipe out their entire species. Why would the good doctor refuse to help them, you might you ask? Because the Menk, a Neanderthal-like subspecies that lives on the planet, will apparently only reach their evolutionary breakthrough once the Valakians are dead. Despite the fact there is absolutely no proof that they will evolve or that the presence of the Valakians is hindering their development in anyway. Particularly baffling, since without the Valakians, the Menk would have died out centuries ago.

The Turner Diaries by white-supremacist William Luther Pierce (writing as Andrew Macdonald) recounts a racial war that ends with the death of all Jews, nonwhites and "mongrels" — all of them, everywhere in the world. Most white people also die in the fighting and general disruption; the population of the United States is reduced to 50 million. Only those bearing "especially valuable genes" survive. This fulfills the dream of the "Great One" (Hitler) for an "all-White world." The historical Hitler would at least have allowed the non-whites to live on as slaves. The necessity of this appears to be based on "Cosmotheism," a belief-system that is Pierce's own invention, which is a curious mishmash of the seemingly incompatible beliefs of racism and panentheism, firmly advocating Goal-Oriented Evolution that he claimed would lead white people to the status of God.

Project ARMS: Keith White thinks that his pursuit of knowledge leaves him perfectly justified to kill, experiment on, mutate, torture, and otherwise ruin the lives of the human test subjects he works with, most of them children. By the series' end, he has taken to declaring himself God and insisting that he'll nuke the planet so he can remake it in his image. The irony is that the sentient alien meteor he was using for this plan, Azreal, only came to Earth because it was drawn to the novelty of human emotions, after spending millions of years alone in space. It helps the protagonists instead, since it doesn't want to be alone.

Starship's Mage: The Eugenicists in the backstory started out by quietly manipulating human lineages on Earth to encourage magic in their families. They later took over the Mars colony and began overtly controlling the population and force-breeding test subjects, triggering a war with Earth.

Serial Experiments Lain: Masami Eiri is an odd example, being a computer scientist who believes that humans have reached the pinnacle of evolution physically and that, in order to continue evolving to more perfect forms, humanity has to give up their bodies for a digital existence. To that end, he secretly puts code into the latest version of the protocol that controls the Wired that would connect humans together on a subconscious level through the network. He also creates Lain a physical body to aid in this effort.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012): The Kraang are either directly or indirectly responsible for every mutant created in the series due to their creating the mutagen that started it all. While some of their "creations" escape (i.e., Splinter and the baby Turtles), many of them are kept prisoner and experimented on (like Leatherhead).

In Naruto, this trope motivates Orochimaru's Start of Darkness: he just wants to learn all the jutsu in the world, and when he realizes he can't in a normal human lifetime, he starts experimenting to put himself above all else. It's more just for his own sake than for the world's, and he's using human guinea pigs left and right.

Humanx Commonwealth: The Meliorare Society is a group of brilliant scientists and genetic engineers who recklessly violated proscriptions against human eugenics in order to "explore the potential of the human genome". They worked by posing as fertility specialists, among other things, with the plan to reclaim the "superior" children once they started manifesting powers and thereby prove themselves to the galaxy. Instead, several of their more grotesque failures came to light and they were outlawed and hunted down. Those not killed outright were subjected to selective mindwipe, and all of the subjects that could be found were either given mercy killings or "altered" to be as normal as possible. The last few remaining Meliorares went into hiding, carrying their dreams of vindication with them. Flinx, the main protagonist, is one of the subjects who slipped through the cracks, mainly by not manifesting his awesome Psychic Powers until much later in his life, and he has several encounters with Meliorare fugitives who attempt to "reclaim" him. This has not ended well for them.

An ironic step-sibling of this trope forms the basis of The Chrysalids. In a post-apocalyptic future (the apocalypse is phrased in religious terms by the characters as "The Tribulation" and implied to have been a nuclear disaster or war), a primitive, theocratic society seeks to exterminate all mutants, whether plant, animal or human. While not Social Darwinists or scientists, the members of this culture are nevertheless striving to "restore" the purity of life on Earth, in an effort to get back into God's good graces.

At the start of the story, he's on the cusp of succeeding.

Final Fantasy XIV: One of those serving Zenos yae Galvus in the expansion pack Stormblood is the Garlean scientist Aulus mal Asina. Asina views the Empire's Magitek weaponry as "an extrinsic solution to an intrinsic problem", namely the Garlen race's complete inability to use magic. With Zenos' personal endorsement, Asina has performed hundreds of human experiments to "correct" that issue and bestow magic powers on those who were not born with the ability, or further the power of one who could use magic to begin with.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness features Doctor Feral. A wealthy humanitarian scientist of Scrupulous alignment, the good Doctor spends his time honestly working toward a better future for all of humanity. His list of medical advances is long, he donates his medical expertise to assist in difficult cases, and even paid to send his maid's children to college. Too bad he only thinks of human life as being sacred and can routinely be found vivisecting sentient mutant animals in his underground lab while he works on that human immortality drug which he is pretty sure he is close to finishing. In a game where all the characters are intelligent mutant animals he tends to come off as a less than altruistic person.

Resident Evil:
The Umbrella Corporation, makers of such fine biological weapons as the T-Virus and the Nemesis.
Resident Evil 5 takes it to a new level with Project W. Ironically, this was one of the first projects Umbrella started in the timeline. Umbrella founder Ozwell Spencer envisioned the rise of a superior breed of humans (consisting of humans infused with the Progenitor Virus at a young age) indoctrinated with his own Social Darwinist values and presumably his interest in biological studies. In other words, this was an Evilutionary project to manufacture more Evilutionary Biologists. Fortunately, the project was ultimately a failure since Albert Wesker and his sister Alex Wesker were the only children to survive the virus injections all the other Wesker children received.
Last but not least, there's Wesker's evil plot itself from the same game as above. To put it in his own words, "Natural selection leaves the survivors stronger and better."

Fallout: New Vegas: The Old World Blues DLC has the Think Tanks, with Dr. Borous in particular being responsible for the Cazadores and Nightstalkers (which he claims are as docile as they are sterile) as well as subjecting his dog Gabe to some pretty terrible experiments (though it's possible to make him feel regret for the latter). They're also responsible for a special spore that infects living people and have made lobotomized people into psychotic zombies (or Lobotomites), a process that you barely manage to survive due to the bullet in your head from the beginning of the game.

A View to a Kill: Carl Mortner, The Dragon to Max Zorin, is a Josef Mengele expy who partook in a Super Breeding Program to create Super Soldiers for the Nazis during World War II. His thinking regarding selective breeding has shades of The Social Darwinist, commenting how his principles on horse breeding can be also applied to create the "ideal" human. In fact, he did indeed create a generation of extremely intelligent psychopaths, Zorin being one of them. This isn't surprising, as the real Nazis also believed in (and attempted) this.

Marvel Universe:
The High Evolutionary from The Avengers (usually) is one of the earlier examples in the franchise. He can sometimes come across as actually a rather reasonable person. Unfortunately, his A God Am I delusions of grandeur keep driving him to take the theory of evolution and beat it into submission with a sack of rusty doorknobs in order to make his experiments work.
Arnim Zola from Captain America is an early-20th-century biochemist and genetic engineer who furthered his research using the notes and equipment of the Deviants and the support of the Nazis. He's still kicking long after World War II thanks to discovering how to transfer human minds to cloned bodies (though his own body is usually robotic) — Jolt from Thunderbolts and Vermin from Spider-Man owe their powers to his cruel human genetic experimentation.
The Supreme Intelligence of the Kree from Captain Marvel (Marvel Comics) has committed monstrous atrocities against his own people in order to spur their evolutionary development.
The Incredible Hulk villain the Leader is a man granted super-intelligence by gamma radiation. Among his various obsessions is that he wants to create more gamma mutates, and he has repeatedly launched schemes to expose the public to gamma radiation, hoping that the few survivors would develop powers. He successfully gamma bombed a little town and did wind up with a handful of new mutates, along with a whole town full of dead innocent people.
In Marvel Zombies, even though he's not infected by the interdimensional zombie plague, Reed Richards nonetheless infects his entire team with said plague, claiming that it's the best course of evolution mankind has been presented with. Being an expendable Crapsack World, this is just the beginning...
One issue of New Warriors has the team fight a supervillain team named Eugenix whose goal is to improve the human race by killing or sterilizing everyone who they deem genetically inferior.
Miles Warren a.k.a. the Jackal from Spider-Man has a lot of fun cloning Peter Parkers (and Gwen Stacys). Most of the blame for The Clone Saga is his.
Gregory Starkfrom The Ultimates is so good at this, and at so many other things, that he made clones of the Hulk (with Bruce Banner's intellect) and Spider-Man just in his free time.
X-Men has a few examples of its own. Mister Sinister is the most obvious, a Victorian-era British eugenicist implied to be directly responsible for the abundance of mutants in the modern world due to the strange, forbidden experiments he conducted in his day. His benefactor Apocalypse is of the less scientific "fight to the death and prove your worth" variety. Magneto has also dabbled in this with his creation of the Mutates, genetically altered mutant Mooks created when the normal-variety mutants just weren't cutting it in his Super Supremacist army.

The Space Trilogy: In the first book, Professor Weston develops interplanetary travel so humanity and their descendants (whatever they evolve into) could go out into the stars and survive throughout the cosmos. However, Weston doesn't care that this plan may involve wiping out other intelligent life. (In the second book, he abandons this goal in favor of a New Age-y philosophy he dubs "Spiritual Evolution", which has nothing to do with this trope.) The trope is taken further in the third book, in which the N.I.C.E. plans to replace all organic life with a machine life.

StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm: Abathur is the Zerg evolution master, tinkering with DNA to create new Zerg creatures or improved strains of existing ones; the transformation of Sarah Kerrigan into the Queen of Blades back in StarCraft was also his work. He has no sense of empathy, which is evident in how creatures which he considers to be failures are painfully dissolved back into raw material while they're still alive, because he thinks the tiny amount of effort required to Mercy Kill them first is an unnecessary waste.

Dr. Mirakle, the villain of Murders in the Rue Morgue. Although insane, his theory of the descent of man from ape ancestors is impressive, given that the film is set 15 years before Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species (though it had already been posited before).

The Master from the first Fallout is very much an adherent of Evilutionary tenets in the Well-Intentioned Extremist mold (certainly, the backdrop of a post-nuclear apocalypse lends his reasoning some gravitas). Science characters, after passing a skill check, can point out that the Master's Super Mutants are entirely sterile and thus doomed to extinction. They're actually physically incapable of biological evolution.

The Enclave, the adversary of the sequel Fallout 2, is in fact a kind of inversion of this trope. Being among the last "pure-breed humans" in the world, they plan to commit genocide on all of the various mutated strains of humanity that have cropped up, effectively "turning back the clock" on evolution. It is up for discussion whether one of the optional courses of action towards the end of the game, in which the Player Character convinces one of the scientists responsible for the plan to turn the WMD they had intended to use for this upon his fellows instead, is a case of using the Evilutionary argument in a more "benign" context.

Fallout 4: The Institute (basically MIT in post-apocalyptia) generally focuses on creating merciless cyborgs, making breakthroughs in science and technology with no sense of control for the social ramifications, and crushing anyone who could interfere with their work. They're considered the bad guys because even though they mean well and can be highly rational, they've cut themselves off from the Commonwealth and treat its people like toys. This includes testing the FEV on them and loosing any "failures" upon the Commonwealth as the Super Mutants. The head of the project sabotaged the lab because nothing was getting done, yet the CEO kept ordering him to continue with the project and turn the "failures" loose, without so much as even an observational capacity. They don't treat the synths they create any better than they do the people of the Commonwealth either.

Binary Domain: Yoji Amada Junior's goal is to create a new race of androids who will infiltrate civilization and... live, eventually supplanting humanity as a saner dominant species in the long run. Note that he doesn't care about the rest of humanity; he just believes that the world is on the brink and that his creations will not survive otherwise. The hollow children's ability to literally interbreed with actual humans to create Hybrids, purely biological genetically modified humans, is the main shocker.

Parasite Eve 2: The key antagonists are a shadowy cult who intend to counter the anthropogenic extinction of thousands of species by "diversifying" humanity into filling all the ecological niches — by transforming everybody into hideous and inevitably hostile monsters.

Dresden Codak: Kim Ross moves towards this trope over the comic's run. Starting with a basis in technological transhumanism, she's been stealing memories from hapless passersbys to help create an A.I. model to help trigger this event. She tries to allow the time-travelling AI that practically lands in her lap to develop in the present, doing the same thing more quickly, despite the current evidence that says it'll probably wipe out most of humanity in the process. Currently she's gotten her hands on a mini-version and is uploading her model into it. Oh, and she's the protagonist. At the end of the arc where she encounters the time travelling A.I., she has somewhat learned to not take her beliefs to the extreme of misanthropy and human inferiority the way her future self did.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Dominion establishes its rule through this trope. Their stormtroopers are bred from birth to fight and made dependent on drugs to keep them docile. Their emissaries are programmed to believe the Founders (the head honchos) are gods. The Dominion isn't above letting loose a super-plague to punish insurgents, either. Not that the Federation is above it, either. However, the Federation expressly bans genetic augmentation, which is a major plot point for one of the characters who was illegally genetically modified as a child. While said character (Dr. Bashir) turned out for the better, many of his other cohorts weren't so lucky.

This involves tortuously altering them to "improve" them against their will. While the uncle, who originally led the project, had eventually killed himself in guilt along with his favorite subjects after coming to love them, Gast feels absolutely no remorse. Indeed, she never displays any caring for anyone else at all.

Fallout:
Deathclaws and mole rats were developed pre-war as biological weapons against China. Deathclaws were developed for close combat and search-and-destroy missions, while mole rats were developed to be an invasive species to be seeded in enemy territory. While mole rats are relatively harmless, can be domesticated, and have a genetic kill switch, deathclaws are 9-10 feet tall and live up to their name, and are capable of breeding.

Fallout: New Vegas: The Old World Blues DLC has the Think Tanks, with Dr. Borous in particular being responsible for the Cazadores and Nightstalkers (which he claims are as docile as they are sterile) as well as subjecting his dog Gabe to some pretty terrible experiments (though it's possible to make him feel regret for the latter). They're also responsible for a special spore that infects living people and have made lobotomized people into psychotic zombies (or Lobotomites), a process that you barely manage to survive due to the bullet in your head from the beginning of the game.

BioShock:
BioShock has two examples:
Yi Suchong, the scientist responsible for the mental conditioning of the Little Sisters and Jack as well as the creation of the Big Daddy.
Dr. Bridgette Tenebaum, who made the Little Sisters what they are and is trying to atone for her mistakes by saving them.
BioShock 2 has Sofia Lamb. An insane Altruist, her life experiences (and the events of the first game) led her to believe that free will is a evolutionarily conditioned illusion. In order to release Rapture from the "burden" of self-awareness, she's decided to fuse all its people into a single, non-aware being using the body of her own daughter, believing the result will be a "True Utopian".

They started out as just making biological weapons, but upon discovering the zombies the virus created may have useful properties they began conducting super soldier experiments with the same virus. One of the scientists becomes infected himself, overdoses on the vaccine, and turns into a zombie/human/something else hybrid and declares himself the next evolutionary step.

BioShock has two examples:
Yi Suchong, the scientist responsible for the mental conditioning of the Little Sisters and Jack as well as the creation of the Big Daddy.
Dr. Bridgette Tenebaum, who made the Little Sisters what they are and is trying to atone for her mistakes by saving them.

BioShock 2 has Sofia Lamb. An insane Altruist, her life experiences (and the events of the first game) led her to believe that free will is a evolutionarily conditioned illusion. In order to release Rapture from the "burden" of self-awareness, she's decided to fuse all its people into a single, non-aware being using the body of her own daughter, believing the result will be a "True Utopian".

Mass Effect: Shepard's crew can't go two weeks without tripping over some hideously immoral experiment. Usually involving Cerberus or the Reapers in some manner.
Mordin is a subversion. "No testing on species capable of calculus. Simple rule. Never broke it." He is, however, willing to engage in very Dirty Business — like upgrading the genophage — if he feels it will prevent future casualties. Mordin's loyalty mission involves his disillusioned student Maelon, who is willing to conduct brutal experiments to undo the damage they caused. Maelon admits that what he's doing is monstrous, but is already so disgusted with himself he feels he has nothing to lose. Despite this, Maelon's research proves vital in the third game in securing a future for the Krogan.
In Mass Effect 3, we finally meet Miranda's father, Henry Lawson, a man who creates offspring based on his own genetic template and then discards them when they don't live up to his expectations. After going through Sanctuary, where he lured thousands of people promising shelter, only to turn them into husks, it's clear that he's even more monstrous than Miranda said he was.

In Palworld, the Final Boss Victor Ashfordnote a Shout-Out to Resident Evil Greater-Scope Villain Alexander Ashford is a Mad Scientist in an Eerie Arctic Research Station who seeks to use the game's mons to create Bioweapon Beasts, with his partner Shadowbeak being his first success. While the game is an Affectionate Parody of Pokémon rife with Black Comedy directed at the mons, Victor's Playing with Syringes is decidedly not Played for Laughs as he speaks of them in a cold, clinical tone through his journals. He melted them down into slurry that was fed to their fellow Pals to make them stronger (with the player able to take advantage of his research), merged them together in horrifying ways and discarded them when the results failed to live more than a few seconds, and generally tore into them just to find out how they ticked.

A View to a Kill: Carl Mortner, The Dragon to Max Zorin, is a Josef Mengele expy who partook in a Super Breeding Program to create Super Soldiers for the Nazis during World War II. His thinking regarding selective breeding has shades of The Social Darwinist, commenting how his principles on horse breeding can be also applied to create the "ideal" human. In fact, he did indeed create a generation of extremely intelligent psychopaths, Zorin being one of them. This isn't surprising, as the real Nazis also believed in (and attempted) this.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Dr. Ulen Hibiki, although he hadn't really built his views around evolutionary dead-end, still wanted to advance the human race as much as possible For Science!. So, to produce his Ultimate Coordinator, he didn't stop before using his own yet unborn (in fact, just conceived) son, Kira Yamato, as well as many others, as a guinea pig for his experiments. The fact that he eventually succeeded didn't help him, though, when he was lynched by an angry mob.

Transformers: Prime: MECH wanted to steal the deadliest technology available so they could further their goals of remaking the world in their image. As such, they become very interested in the Cybertronians when they learn of their existence. This leads to their kidnapping/trying to dissect Breakdown, almost gutting Arcee, stealing Bumblebee's and Starscream's T-cogs, and creating Nemesis Prime (a remote-controlled Cybertronian with the power of Optimus Prime). They cross the Moral Event Horizon when they put Silas' barely alive body inside and basically turn him into a human-Cybertronian hybrid. You know a group is bad when both the Autobots and the Decepticons hate them.

Time After Time: Dr. Edward Munroe is an unhinged geneticist intent on improving humans by enhancing them with a serum he's created. Unfortunately, it's turned all his subjects into homicidal maniacs thus far, but he doesn't let that stop him. He's delighted after getting ahold of John, who was Jack the Ripper, believing that his DNA is the key to fixing this. Appropriately, he also serves In-Universe as the inspiration of the eponymous doctor in The Island of Doctor Moreau. Like most, he explicitly claims "survival of the fittest" rules, while mentioning John as being the "next stage of evolution", indicating his poor evolutionary knowledge (unsurprisingly).

In Kagaku Sentai Dynaman, the villains' collective name is the Jashinka — from jashin (evil god) and shinka (evolution). In other words, their name actually translates to "Evilution". However, their plan to convert humans doesn't go so well, so they go the usual mass destruction route.

The various film adaptations of The Island of Doctor Moreau — Island of Lost Souls, The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977), The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) — make Dr. Moreau into one of these.

The Amazing Spider-Man: Dr. Connors is driven by a vision of a "world without weakness" in which everyone is equal, the limits of the human body having been overcome through science. While he has traces of the Lizard virus in his system, he comes to the conclusion that his Lizard form is a superior creature devoid of human weaknesses, and that his vision can be made a reality by making everyone like him, even if that means forcing the change upon everyone against their will.

Professor Martin Collingwood from The Titan is seeking to genetically transform the volunteer test subjects so they can survive on Titan. His goal is laudatory in that he's trying to save the human race, but when the subjects start dying or going insane, he's urged to stop and reevaluate the results. He refuses to do so because right now he has the funding and support for his project and wants to race ahead while he has the chance, even though he admits he has no idea what the end result will be.

The DCU:
Dr. Love from Infinity, Inc. is a mad obstetrician who created the supervillain team Helix by experimenting on the unborn children of pregnant women under his care.
In Legion of Super-Heroes, 1000 years from the present day, Ra's Al Ghul plots to crash the Moon into the Earth to force humanity to pre-emptively evolve to prevent it.
In Scare Tactics (DC Comics), Slither was experimented on by his biologist father with the result that he transformed into a Lizard Folk.
Dabney Donovan from Superboy (1994), one of the co-founders of the cloning project Cadmus, is a Mad Scientist who feels cloning is the way of the future and humans besides himself are basically worthless. The "Hyper-Tension!" arc gives a horrifying look at what he would become if allowed to experiment to his satisfaction, and it involves "cloning" deceased super-heroes into an obedient army of disturbing mix-and-match people who only vaguely resemble those they were cloned from and taking over the earth.
Bertron from Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey is an ancient alien who created the creature Doomsday. He was Hoist by His Own Petard millions of years ago in the days of prehistoric Krypton, but unfortunately for the rest of the universe "The Ultimate" lives on to this day.

The villain(s) of Felidae turn out to be doing this with cats — Preterius through his increasingly inhumane Animal Testing experiments with the aim of creating a Healing Factor-inducing serum, and Claudandus through his Super Breeding Program with the aim of breeding cats back to their original, ferocious form.

Final Fantasy:
Final Fantasy IV: Dr. Lugae, the original Evilutionary Biologist and Mad Scientist featured in the series.
Final Fantasy VII: Professor Hojo embodies every trope associated to Evilutionary Biologists and Mad Scientists. A thoroughly nasty piece of work, he's pretty much responsible for almost all the tragedies and deaths in the game and its spinoffs.
Final Fantasy XIV: One of those serving Zenos yae Galvus in the expansion pack Stormblood is the Garlean scientist Aulus mal Asina. Asina views the Empire's Magitek weaponry as "an extrinsic solution to an intrinsic problem", namely the Garlen race's complete inability to use magic. With Zenos' personal endorsement, Asina has performed hundreds of human experiments to "correct" that issue and bestow magic powers on those who were not born with the ability, or further the power of one who could use magic to begin with.
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius: Dr. Lazarov is a twisted, amoral, unethical, inhuman, raving lunatic with a depraved personality and a sociopathic disregard for human life. An Immortality Seeker that will not stop at anything to accomplish his goal, there's no line he will not cross. Lazarov pretty much admits the only reason he's working for the Six Sworn of Paladia is because the war they wage will leave a nice amount of fresh corpses on its wake... fresh corpses he will put to good use.

Magic: The Gathering:
This is a common archetype for Blue/Green characters and factions, as Green is the color of nature and living things and Blue the color of science, progress, and embracing change for its own sake while discarding old traditions. The result often tends to be a philosophy that's big on preserving and propagating nature and living things while eagerly "improving" them as needed. One such group is the Simic Combine of Ravnica, a guild ostensibly focused on medical and agricultural research but in practice very much this trope. Their projects have included biological grafts meant to give their bearers new and useful organs and more recently the krasis, biological chimeras of various creatures meant to thrive in Ravnica's endless cityscapes — crocodile frogs, fish people, sharktocrabs, snake-headed jellyfish and so on — which are then let loose in the world.
Then there was Yawgmoth, a firm believer that strength came from conflict. And then he created a biomechanical hell named Phyrexia where Cybernetics Eat Your Soul.
In New Phyrexia, three of the five Phyrexian factions are this to varying degrees. Jin-Gitaxias of the Blue faction is one to the greatest extent (the name of his faction, The Progress Engine, is saying something). The leaders of the Green Vicious Swarm, Vorinclex and Glissa, are all about "encouraging" natural selection instead, via extreme predation and survival of the fittest. And the White Machine Orthodoxy wishes to either unite all beings into one (by stitching them all together!) or to transform them all into "perfect" soulless dolls. The two factions not concerned with this are the Black Seven Steel Thanes (who are too occupied trying to slit each other's throats over becoming the new Father of Machines) and the Red leader of the Quiet Furnace, Urabrask the Hidden, who just wants everybody else to leave him and his servants in peace.

Alliance/Union: Union uses Uterine Replicators to produce Azi, who are graded by intelligence from Alpha highest down (Rho is mentioned to be the lowest class used as a production-line type). Subverted however, in that the science is handled relatively well, each class consists of multiple genetic types, and the standard practice is to include as much genetic diversity in a population as possible — indeed, one of the purposes of the Azi is to increase the genetic diversity of the space stations they populate. Your Mileage May Vary as to how evil Ariane Emory is, however. In a further subversion of the idea, Alpha Azi are not usually leaders — they take too long to make decisions because they tend to wait for all the information to become available. Betas make better officers.

The Man with Two Brains: Dr. Michael Hfuhruhurr is in many ways one of these; as well as being not-quite-all-there and his developing God-complex, he confidently predicts a day where his research will allow "brilliant minds to live on in the bodies of dumb people" and the like. He's somewhat lacking in the evil department, though, as for all the Mad Scientist Character Development that occurs, he's a bit too decent and moral to actually kill in order to achieve his ends.

Code Vein: Juzo Mido believes that Revenants can evolve beyond what humanity assumed they were capable of, and to that end he did countless experiments on the orphan children in his care. The vast majority of these experiments ended with the children becoming powerful Lost under Mido's control. Worse, he wants to remove the Red Mist keeping Revenants trapped because he believes that only by fighting the world-ending "horrors" outside can the revenants evolve further. He doesn't particularly care that this will most likely kill nearly all of them.

The Incredible Hulk villain the Leader is a man granted super-intelligence by gamma radiation. Among his various obsessions is that he wants to create more gamma mutates, and he has repeatedly launched schemes to expose the public to gamma radiation, hoping that the few survivors would develop powers. He successfully gamma bombed a little town and did wind up with a handful of new mutates, along with a whole town full of dead innocent people.

After Agrona Vritra Start of Darkness and becoming the Big Bad of the story when he attempted to reveal the truth about the Djinn genocide committed by the Indrath clan regarding aether knowledge. Agrona began experimenting and interbreeding with all of Alacrya to get revenge against Kezess Indrath and all of the Epheotus for betraying and exiling him unjustly. Agrona's experiments lasted for a hundred generations resulted in creation of the wraiths, Vritra blooded Alacryans, scythes, retainers and a very powerful alacryan war machine making a case of a Bad Ass Army and an averted case of Crippling Over Specialization despite that it resulted in the death of many Alacryans as a failed experiments.

Warhammer 40,000:
Fabius Bile, like most things in the setting, is this trope turned up to eleven. His master race are superpowered versions of the existing Super Soldiers, with the difference that they're all homicidal megalomaniacs, and he's turned the population of entire planets into shambling mutants with his experiments. Oh, and did we mention that his labcoat is sewn from human skin? His most ambitious project: to clone the Emperor.
Tzeentch, the Master of Change. His entire existence is based on evolution, so his followers enjoy having random "gifts" happening at any moment (read: every moment). Which leads into...
An inversion by Ahriman, who turned the entire Thousand Sons legion (the ones loyal to Tzeentch) into living coffins to stop the mutations/evolution. Needless to say, he is not well liked, even among the Thousand Sons.
Unlike most Genestealer Cults, the Cult of the Twisted Helix was created by the deliberate machinations of its human subjects. The scientists and researchers of the medical-industrial world Vejovium III were able to produce a serum from the dissection and study of captive Genestealers that they believed would allow them to achieve immortality and biological perfection. The original batches of the serum simply transformed their test subjects into Genestealer hybrids, but the cult's leadership, now long-since transformed into equivalents of magi and biophagi, continues to experiment and seek true perfection. Most of their experiments result in their test subjects becoming twisted monsters — aberrants, metamorphs and more unique horrors — that are put to use as shock troops to fuel the cult's hunger for resources and fresh guinea pigs.

He started to see it as the solution to crime by creating a docile population, but Chief Judge Fargo vetoed his proposal on the grounds that it was their duty to police the citizens they have, not create the citizens they'd like. Judd went rogue and fled to the Australian wastes, where for decades he built a Clone Army to replace the Judges.

Doctor Who:
John Lumic, creator of the "parallel Earth" Cybermen, sees his creations in this way. Davros, in the original series, created the Daleks for much the same reason.
And the Daleks themselves, who in "Daleks in Manhattan"/"Evolution of the Daleks" tried to create Dalek/Human hybrids to overcome their weaknesses — only for Dalek Sec to be influenced a little too much by his new human side. He, naturally, pays the price.
In the episode "The Face of Evil", all of the characters are victims of a eugenics experiment being run by Xoanon. By and large, they bear him no hard feelings for it afterwards.
In Big Finish Doctor Who, Rassilon, Founder of Time Lord Society, tried to prevent any races evolving that could threaten the Time Lords. He seeded other worlds to make sure life like the Time Lords would evolve and imprisoned races in other universes which are in the dungeons of his Foundry.

Parasite Eve:
The first game has Dr. Klamp, who is the one who ultimately created Eve and willingly assists her in her genocidal goals because he wishes to "help humanity evolve".
Parasite Eve 2: The key antagonists are a shadowy cult who intend to counter the anthropogenic extinction of thousands of species by "diversifying" humanity into filling all the ecological niches — by transforming everybody into hideous and inevitably hostile monsters. Made particularly chilling by the fact that about half of their stated plan — namely the use of retroviral engineering — isn't too far from being a real possibility.

Mega Man X: Quite a few villains follow the robotic version of this, trying to improve the technological advancement of their species beyond what humans made them for. Lumine and Sigma (in the MHX remake) actually mention evolution. In the Mega Man ZX, both Serpent and much more notably Master Albert fit this trope to a T. In addition, it is possible that Master Thomas is an example of this trope as well. Prometheus calls out Albert on this point, however, declaring that his grand plan of evolution is nothing but a farce and "epic sham", and considering Albert's A God Am I tendencies, he might have something of a point.

Dabney Donovan from Superboy (1994), one of the co-founders of the cloning project Cadmus, is a Mad Scientist who feels cloning is the way of the future and humans besides himself are basically worthless. The "Hyper-Tension!" arc gives a horrifying look at what he would become if allowed to experiment to his satisfaction, and it involves "cloning" deceased super-heroes into an obedient army of disturbing mix-and-match people who only vaguely resemble those they were cloned from and taking over the earth.

Cyrus, the main villain of Space Assassin, is a cruel despot who travels across the galaxy in his Planet Spaceship and regularly sends his robotic minions to abduct sentient lifeforms on various planets for him to mutant, transform and dissect to his liking. His lair is filled with mutated minions of his working, the scariest being a six-armed Frankensteinian Monster called a "Deity" which is seemingly made by stitching together a dozen differrent life forms.

Stargate Atlantis: Michael eventually becomes one of these, with his plans to create a race of human-Wraith hybrids and wipe everyone else out. His first experiments were possibly the most atrocious, with him forcibly implanting people with Iratus bug eggs so he could find out the effect of different levels of DNA from either species, creating some sort of Xenomorph Xeroxes in the process.

The New Order Last Days Of Europe features Trofim Lysenko, the technocratic ruler of Magnitogorsk. A historical person known for his pseudoscientific beliefs and ardent support of Lamarckist interpretations that living organisms inherit the acquired traits of their forebears and that plants can acquire desirable traits if they grow under extreme duress, he came to the "realization" that this can apply to humans, too, and to promote the desirable traits is necessary for mankind's benefit. In the abandoned city of Magnitogorsk, Lysenko set up a massive system of "experimental chambers", where kidnapped people are subjected to torture in his futile attempts to confirm those theories and turn prisoners into Super Soldiers that will help him to liberate the war-torn Russia from Nazi Germans and warlords.

Rifts has Dr. Desmond Bradford. He is head of the Lone Star Complex, a Pre-Rifts genetic engineering facility that experimented in intelligent mutant animals. Bradford has created a variety of mutant animal soldiers for the Coalition States, but also secretly performs experiments on humans, attempting to create powerful psychic humans. Note that even the Coalition would pale if they knew what he was up to. Not that Bradford cares; he literally believes that he is a god and above such petty things as "morals" or "ethical concerns".

Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom: The Big Bad is a Well-Intentioned Extremist that let his extremism evolve into a Nazi Germany-style pogrom, including developing a nanotech-based bioweapon that kills based on preselected genetic criteria. It kills by altering the cellular RNA of an infected person that doesn't measure up, whose own immune system attacks them, liquefying their flesh. Slowly. At first, it's thought that it's a plague, until the main protagonist finds out the truth behind this, and another weapon that destroys ships by somehow igniting the atmosphere within, turning spacecraft into impromptu furnaces) during a covert mission to the Big Bad's stronghold/spaceship. It doesn't exactly help that the Big Bad is a member of the same military that the protagonist is and is actually higher in rank. The purported reason behind all this is that "humanity has gotten weak" without the perpetual warring of the first three games and needs to be "pruned to be able to face the next adversary". Naturally, the protagonist has to stop this out of moral indignation, and the Big Bad is deliberately inciting another war through his use of this stuff.

In Headhunter, the Big Bad, unbeknownst to The Dragon, was creating a race of super-humans, the first of which he called... Adam. He was also releasing a virus that would wipe out humanity (himself included) and which Adam was immune to — any humans left alive would be quickly wiped off the face of the Earth by Adam. Since there was only one creature (so no Eve) made and "he" didn't have any genitalia, it's not very clear how said super-race would have been built.

The Fly (1986): For a stretch, Seth Brundle becomes this. After successfully teleporting himself through space via his telepods, Seth has remarkably enhanced strength, stamina, virility, etc. He believes this to be a wonderful unintentional result of the teleportation process, and that anyone else who uses the teleporter will become a superperson. Thus, he starts pressuring his lover Veronica to be teleported — "And I won't wear you out; we'll be the perfect couple! The Dynamic Duo!" When she objects — both due to her nervousness about the process and the stranger changes she's seeing in him, such as odd hairs growing out of a wound on his back, a pronounced Sweet Tooth, and his less-dorky personality — he is furious, declares her a coward, and sets out to find "someone who'll keep up with me", leading to a tryst with another woman. Only Veronica's timely arrival at the loft stops him from forcibly teleporting her. Shortly after this he comes to realize what's actually happening to him — a fly was in the teleporter when he made his fateful trip, and he was genetically fused with it. He is slowly becoming a hideous Half-Human Hybrid of human and insect; all of the "improvements" are a result of this and the downside is just beginning to show. This realization smashes this trope and his ego to pieces.

Saw: Jigsaw isn't a scientist, but rather an engineer, which still fits the trope well; instead of participating in scientific experimentation, he uses the applied science of engineering to build Death Traps. Similarly, his concerns are social rather than biological or genetic — he's disgusted with the indolence and sloth he sees surrounding him; without the "will to live", humanity would face extinction. His preferred solution is to force people in Deadly Games where they have to mutilate themselves or kill someone else.

Arnim Zola from Captain America is an early-20th-century biochemist and genetic engineer who furthered his research using the notes and equipment of the Deviants and the support of the Nazis. He's still kicking long after World War II thanks to discovering how to transfer human minds to cloned bodies (though his own body is usually robotic) — Jolt from Thunderbolts and Vermin from Spider-Man owe their powers to his cruel human genetic experimentation.
