What happens when you have both Enemy Mine and Rivals Team Up in one ensemble. The Hero might be introduced with a rival, or a rival might be introduced later, either starting that way or from a Heel–Face Turn. Then there's one of their enemies, who decides to help the hero but without officially joining their group for whatever reason - usually it's when they're facing a common enemy (usually the Big Bad) or when they're facing the threat of the destruction of everything (in which case the Big Bad him/herself might team up with the hero). The enemy in this case might also join because he wants to be the one defeating/killing the hero in the end. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sub-Trope of Power Trio. See also With a Friend and a Stranger, Ragtag Bunch of Misfits, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Friendly Enemy, Worthy Opponent and 11th-Hour Ranger (the villain is almost always this). Compare The Good, the Bad, and the Evil, which may overlap (in form of "The Good, The 2 Bads, and The Evil") but its focus is more on "Hero vs. Rival vs. Enemy" instead of the three working together. Since this trope often occurs towards the end of a movie or TV season, there're unmarked spoilers ahead. You Have Been Warned. |

Wonder Woman (1987): The climax of the "Challenge of Artemis" arc sees Diana team up with her rival Artemis and villain Circe to fight the White Magician. The team up is a bit odd as Artemis was already nearing the end of her fight with the Magician by the time Diana got there, and Circe initially refused to join (though she did send Diana along) and only arrived even later after Artemis' fate was sealed. | |

In Ranma ½, one of the main Power Trios is between Ranma and two of his main rivals Ryoga and Mousse. While Ryoga has cast aside most of his animosity and has forged a Bash Brothers dynamic with Ranma, Mousse on the other hand still remains very bitter towards Ranma and will only ever work with him for personal gain and usually with ulterior motives. | |

Mega Man has to team-up with his brother Proto Man and his nemesis Bass to fight together against Dr. Wily when Mega Man can't handle it alone. This "alliance" is seen first in Mega Man & Bass (with Proto Man falling over at the beginning) and later in both Mega Man Power games (in Fighters with Duo as the Stranger) and in Mega Man 10, with Mega Man and Proto Man battling together as brothers, and Bass making a truce to also stop Wily, who goes against his own plans. | |

Dragon Ball Mostly seen in Dragon Ball Z and Super, Goku fights along with Piccolo and Vegeta, both were former enemies that made a Heel–Face Turn but now battle together. The difference is that Piccolo is more a Friendly Rival towards Goku, while Vegeta starts off as an Anti-Villain who is forced to team up with the heroes as well as being a Stock Shōnen Rival, which is especially prominent in the Buu Saga where Vegeta takes the chance to be more powerful than Goku by turning back to evil. Also seen before in Dragon Ball, when Goku was just a child, with Yamcha and Tien Shinhan, also both having a Heel–Face Turn and being part of Goku's group, but being more friendly than Piccolo and Vegeta. In this case it's downgraded, with Yamcha being more like a friend for Goku and Tien being more serious about his rivalry than Yamcha. Dragon Ball Super: By the Tournament of Power, Vegeta gets promoted to Friendly Rival while the Arch-Enemy spot gets filled by Frieza. The three of them end up in a Last Stand against Jiren after Android 17's attempted self-destruct puts him out of commission. It's particularly notable due to Vegeta becoming jealous that Goku is able to work better with Frieza than with Vegeta. This trio continues on into Dragon Ball Super: Broly. |

Kamen Rider Drive has the Rider trio of Shinnosuke, Chase, and Gou. Chase was actually a former enemy to both Shinnosuke and Gou but made a Heel–Face Turn and acted like Shinnosuke's lancer while Gou acted hostile to Chase since he hated all Roidmudes. While Gou could work well with Shinnosuke who he like, it took facing the other Roidmudes and his evil Father Banno for him to work with Chase. | |

An inverted example happens in WWE when Daniel Bryan teams up with Kane (making the "Team Hell No!") and adding The Undertaker to the mixture to fight The Shield in 2013. In this case, Bryan is the contrary force of the team, but is more friendly than the "Brothers of Destruction" (Kane and Undertaker), also seems by many as The Hero of the team. | |

In Book 3 of Pokémon Adventures, Red has to team up with rival Pokémon trainer Blue and thief Green in order to get into Viridian City, which is apparently off-limits due to Team Rocket using a Psychic Pokémon to put a large bubble shield around the city, keeping Red, Blue, and Green from getting in. | |

In Diablo: La Resistencianote Bilingual Bonus of The Resistance in Spanish and "La Resistencia", the name of the suburb where the story happens, Diablo was trapped in a suburb with a Mob War between two hooligan gangs from rival soccer teamsnote a direct reference to the "war" between Colo-Colo and Universidad de Chile, two major football/soccer teams with their own hooligans. That, until demons sent by Vardan, The Dragon of Lord of Entropia, who go for human flesh, no matter in which the side they're on. To avoid a big massacre, Diablo has to team up with both gangs to stop the demons and as a third side, the religious people of the suburb who also stand against the demons as the gangs. | |

Death Note has a very unusual example involving two Villain Protagonists and a Hero Antagonist. Light Yagami/Kira finds a rival Kira in the form of Misa Amane, who eventually tracks him down and teams up with him. However, both end up getting captured by L, Light's Arch-Enemy, to which Light pulls a Memory Gambit on both him and Misa to evade incrimination. With a new Kira out there, the now amnesiac Light and Misa join L and the rest of the "Kira Task Force" to hunt down the new supernatural Serial Killer. | |

Seen in Super Mario RPG with Mario, Geno, and Bowser. Mario is obviously The Hero and Geno becomes The Lancer to help Mario to recover the Seven Star Pieces, stop the Smithy Gang and save the world. In the case of Bowser, Mario's Arch-Enemy has his castle stolen, so he has no other option than to ally Mario and company to get his domains back. | |

Star Trek: Debt of Honor: The final fight against the extradimensional creatures sees Jim Kirk team up with his Klingon rival Commander Kor, and Romulan frenemy Commander T'Cel with whom he has Unresolved Sexual Tension (she had previously been a civilian consultant stationed on USS Farragut and escaped with him when it was destroyed, only to leave to draw off Romulans investigating the incident and turn out to be half-Romulan herself). Their bond of mutual respect is enough to overcome the Space Cold War state between their three governments so they can deal with the monsters that have been attacking area shipping for decades. | |

Lupin III: Lupin III: Episode 0: First Contact: Lupin III is trying to steal the Clam of Hermes, and finds himself working at cross purposes, as usual, with his friend Brad. He meets Jigen working as a guard for the mob boss who possesses the treasure. Although initially thwarted by Jigen, Lupin was able to find Brad's necklace, and he presents the memento of Brad's death to his girlfriend, Fujiko. Fujiko working with the mob and Lupin wants to make out with the treasure herself and is willing to sell Lupin out for the chance to do so. After another failed attempt to steal the Clam of Hermes, Lupin, Fujiko, and Jigen are all imprisoned by the mob boss. When Goemon shows up to take the Clam of Hermes for himself, the three prisoners turn the tables on the mob and break out. Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine: "Blood-Soaked Triangle" has Lupin III competing with Jigen to get this week's treasure. He's trying to get an alexandrite peacock to prove to Fujiko that he's worthy of her. Once they're both far enough into the pyramid, Fujiko sets them against each other in one of the traps, completely uncaring who dies (if both died, it wouldn't bother her). Once they get past the trap, though, they learn that removing the peacock leaves them completely trapped, and have to work together to escape. The Castle of Cagliostro: Both Lupin III (with Jigen & Goemon) and Fujiko have gone to the titular castle to steal the counterfeiting plates of Count Cagliostro. Inspector Zenigata learns about Lupin's presence and enters the castle to arrest him. Both Lupin and Zenigata become temporarily trapped in the dungeon, so they work together to escape. Zenigata knows the Count is breaking international law, but his superiors inform him that the Count cannot be arrested because he has too many political connections. Later, Lupin convinces Fujiko to have Zenigata prepared to sneak into the castle, ready to chase after Lupin for stealing the Count's bride. In fact, Zenigata runs to the Count's counterfeiting operation with Fujiko following with a live worldwide broadcast to prove the Count's evildoing. At the end of the movie, Fujiko has stolen the counterfeiting plates, Lupin (with Jigen & Goemon) chases her to get a percentage of the heist, and Zenigata is chasing all of them to put them behind bars. Lupin III fights along with Jigen and Goemon, both were former enemies that made the Heel–Face Turn and now they battle together. The difference is that Jigen is more a Friendly Rival for Lupin, while Goemon was more of an Anti-Villain who simply hasn't carried out his assasination yet. |

The final part of BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm is a textbook example. The Greater-Scope Villain has been revived, and the only three people left to face it are Catie (the hero), Arianna (the rival), and Boxxyfan (the baddie). In Arianna’s case it marks a genuine Heel–Face Turn, but for Boxxyfan it’s merely a teeth-clenched Enemy Mine situation. | |
