The Rival joins forces with The Hero against a mutual foe. Can be temporary (due to The Only One Allowed to Defeat You sentiment) or permanent (a Heel–Face Turn if The Rival previously served the evil side, especially when Defeat Means Friendship or Fire Forged Friendship ensues). Some genre-specific variations: In Super Robot Sentai anime, this Heel–Face Turn is usually permanent and The Rival gets a pilot seat in the titular Humongous Mecha alongside The Hero. In the Magical Girl genre, this almost inevitably happens to the Dark Magical Girl. The opposite of Rival Turned Evil. Bear in mind, however, that The Rival may not always be evil. He or she may simply be an antagonist trying to one-up The Hero in doing good things, or the rivalry may be based on other unrelated reasons, such as personal ones. A Sub-Trope of Enemy Mine, which is any case in which a protagonist and antagonist team up against a common enemy (not just rivals). Can overlap with a Technician/Performer Team-Up. |

Usagi-chan de Cue!!: Inaba Mikami and Nekoi Koshka continue their duel in the Ayakagi Mall, until a new combatant enters the fray. It's Dekao the Admonisher, rebuilt yet again into a war machine on tank treads, and he's there to slay both of them. The first weapon Dekao deploys is his whirling tentacles, which Inaba easily dodges. Koshka, however, was caught by surprise, and suffers Clothing Damage. When Dekao retracts his tentacles and deploys a missile launcher, Inaba carries the fallen Koshka to safety behind some debris. Once Dekao is out of missiles, Inaba invites Koshka to engage him in combat, using the term "partner." Koshka is flummoxed by this, but follows Inaba's lead nonetheless. Together the two girls defeat Dekao with Teeth-Clenched Teamwork. | |

Soaring Machinariae: The second segment of the Tower of Desire requires two handler-automaton pairs to go through parallel paths, where they have to activate paths for each other. Maria/Iris and Mel/Orchis end up cooperating on the opposing paths, despite their longstanding rivalry. The trial then throws in a twist where each combatant has to face a copy of the one who helped them. | |

Bleach: Ishida Uryu started out as a genuine Rival, but in spite of his constant insistence that he's still Kurosaki Ichigo's enemy, has put himself on the line for his companions multiple times. He even tells a Shinigami at one point that the Five-Man Band are True Companions — "nakama", as if that explains why he's come to Soul Society and sacrificed his powers for people who supposedly mean nothing to him. Even though Hichigo stabbed him, Ishida merely did his Deadpan Snarker schtick when Ichigo snapped out of it. But Uryu doesn't care. Really. Also Ichigo teamed up with Renji against Aizen but they fail. Byakuya and Kenpachi do this against Yammy only because he was in the way of their fight. |

Honor Harrington: As of "A Rising Thunder", Manticore and Haven, at each other's throats continuously for over two decades and preparing for war with each other for several decades before that, form a military alliance. The new main bad guys of the series, who have been playing them for centuries, essentially shit a brick when they find out. On a more individual scale, the heads of their respective R&D programs, Admiral Sonja Hemphill and Admiral Shannon Foraker, get sent off to Haven's enormous R&D facility in order to bring their combined genius to bear on even more technological innovation. The two immediately become fast friends and co-conspirators, with the expected results. Even their friends are a bit terrified at what they manage to accomplish together — Honor's nickname for them, the "Demonic Duo", is entirely justified. |

Happens on both sides in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. The superheros work with the villains of the DC Universe, while Liu Kang and Raiden are forced to work with the likes of Shang Tsung and Kano. At the end, Raiden and Superman, who each thought the other was an enemy, then team up to take down Dark Kahn (a fusion of Darkseid and Shao Kahn). | |

Naruto: Zabuza Momochi, after Haku dies. Unfortunately, Redemption Equals Death. Whenever Naruto and Sasuke work together, either before or after the latters Face–Heel Turn, asskicking ensues. An especially awesome moment of this was during the second Shippuden movie, Bonds. Also, this happened again when Sasuke pulled a Heel–Face Turn during the Ten-Tails arc. Happened historically when the Uchiha and Senju clans, bitter rivals since their founding, joined forces to create Konoha. While their "rival" status depends on which one you ask, Gai and Kakashi make a formidable team. |

In Fullmetal Alchemist, this happens very often. Ed and Al team up with Scar briefly to escape Envy and Gluttony during their first encounter with Father, and have another, much longer alliance when they need his help to translate research notes that they need to save the country—they even stage him kidnapping their childhood friend Winry, whose parents were killed by Scar, and who suggested the plan herself, no less, despite all three of them hating his guts in order to save her from a mutual enemy. By the time the Promised Day comes about, Scar pulls a full-blown Heel–Face Turn. | |

Dragon Ball: The franchise has a history of enemies joining forces, which naturally includes this. Dragon Ball Z starts with Goku and Piccolo Jr putting aside previous grievances (You Killed My Father) to take down Raditz. Goku ends up letting Piccolo kill both of them in a Taking You with Me, although Piccolo knows Goku's friends can revive him. Upon learning of Vegeta and Nappa, Piccolo ends up training Goku's kid, Taking the Bullet for him, and growing into a solidly reliable hero. Vegeta and Goku. When these two team up, there's very little that can stand in their way for long. And the result of their Fusion Dance... let's just say that he is able to (literally) punch out Cosmic Horrors, upon which nobody could land a hit before. In Dragon Ball Super, Goku briefly teams up with Hit from Universe 6 during the Tournament of Power. Even though only one universe's team can win, Goku instinctively dislikes seeing two of the Universe 11 fighters ganging up on Hit. |

Gentleman Johnnie Marcone teams up with Harry Dresden in White Night, book nine of The Dresden Files while fighting ghouls in a natural Elaborate Underground Base owned by the White Court. This is hardly the only time Marcone and Dresden join forces, and whenever they do, much awesomeness ensues. They don't do it often, however, since Dresden vigorously hates Marcone's guts and is probably the only living being of whom Marcone is genuinely afraid wary. | |

Given the nature of Star Trek, it shouldn't be surprising that this is an often-recurring plot line throughout every series. Star Trek: The Original Series In "Day of the Dove" Kirk has to convince a group of Klingons who are trying to take over the ship to work together against an alien presence who is feeding off of their emotions. Star Trek: Voyager: The entire series consists of this, when in the pilot episode the titular ship is forced to integrate the crew of the Maquis vessel they were sent to capture, and the focus shifts to joining forces in an attempt to return home. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In later seasons the Federation, Klingons, and Romulans all team up to defeat The Dominion. Then in "What You Leave Behind" even the Cardassians join in after it becomes clear the Dominion has no further use for them. |

Scar also does this in Fullmetal Alchemist (2003). Despite killing dozens of State Alchemists, he saves Ed and Al's lives more than once. But he also plans to create a Philosopher's Stone by sacrificing hundreds of State troopers. When Scar was making the stone, he and Ed were quasi-officially on the same side, with it being Ed's task to evacuate all the Lior citizens. (He'd also sent a letter to Central telling the troops not to invade, but Archer screwed that.) There's also Episode 24, which is all about Scar and Al teaming up to save a young Ishvalan boy who had been captured. And of course, Laboratory 5. |

The rival scientists Piero Joplin and Anton Sokolov spend most of Dishonored throwing jabs at each other, but after the Loyalists betray and abandon them (well, mostly Piero, as Sokolov was technically their captive) to their deaths, the two quickly put their minds together and jury-rig a new arc pylon model capable of incinerating or knocking out all hostiles in the area (while sparing them and Corvo), and, in the Low Chaos ending, continue their collaboration to invent a cure for the rat plague, too. | |

At least three characters from Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple function as The Rival to Kenichi, and given the rather idealistic nature of the series... This doesn't always overlap with Defeat Means Friendship (an otherwise rather frequent occurrence). The most obvious case is Hermit, who is still thinks of himself as Kenichi's rival after his slow climb towards AntiHeroism. Additionally, there is Shou Kano from YOMI, who runs into the wrong end of Redemption Equals Death near the end of the Tournament Arc. Even Odin looks to be on his way, given the Character Development he underwent between series 1 and series 2. Also, Kisara counts, given her strong (if one-sided) rivalry with Miu before she joined the Shinpaku Alliance. |

One Piece: Downplayed with Luffy's alliance with Law. As they are both members of the Eleven Supernovas/Worst Generation, they are assumed to be rivals by the world at large, and Luffy also figures they will be eventually if they're both after the One Piece. However, Law has never actually stated that this is his goal, and they have a pretty amicable relationship with each other from the start, eventually growing to be genuine friends over the course of their relatively long partnership. Played straighter with Luffy's team-up with Bege, another member of the Worst Generation, in the Whole Cake Island arc. |

Similar to Kira and Athrun are Lelouch and Suzaku in Code Geass who team up on a few occasions throughout both seasons, despite becoming bitter enemies. In fact, Lelouch says many times that there isn't a single thing that they two cannot accomplish if they work together. And they do, indeed, change the entire freaking world together. Also note that while both of them could be called "The Hero", neither of them can really be called "A Hero". | |

Sonic the Hedgehog has many rivals and has teamed up with them on occasions. The characters are Knuckles, Shadow, Blaze, Jet, and Silver (who earlier in the game plays this with Shadow, who ironically fought the white hedgehog mere seconds before due to him attacking Sonic in the first place.) Along with the Shadow example above, the Hero and Dark characters (minus Shadow) in Sonic Adventure 2 team up in the last level of the game to stop the ARK from crashing towards Earth. Sonic Rivals play this in the last level where Sonic, Knuckles, Shadow, and Silver help each other out to fight off Eggman. Knuckles and Rouge in Sonic Rivals 2. Both are treasure hunters in their own right and have fought over the Master Emerald in Sonic Adventure 2. They only team up since the Master Emerald is stolen by Eggman. |

Invader Zim: Zim and Dib have to work together to synthesize a cure to stop them both from being turned into bologna (It Makes Just As Much Sense In Context)... but their teamwork is shoddy and they ultimately fail, and go down bickering. In the Halloween episode, they must team up again but they both end up double crossing each other. Luckily they made it out alive anyway. It seems like the only time their team-up actually worked out was in the season one finale, when they worked together against Tak. |

Seto Kaiba and Yugi Moutou from Yu-Gi-Oh! end up having to work together on several occasions. Of course, they win. (The duel on the roof with the Rare Hunters during Battle City; the duel with Big Bad Dartz in the DOMA arc; at the end of the movie, Anubis has a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness moment with Kaiba, whom he's been influencing the whole duel, and Yugi and Kaiba team up to kick his ancient ass. Jack Atlas never truly ended his rivalry with Yusei, but after officially making a Heel–Face Turn, was closer to him than any other rival in the franchise. (He and Yusei were actually roomates with Crow for the second season, in fact.) The first time the two worked as a team (unless you count Flashbacks shown from when they were members of Team Satisfaction) was in the three-on-one duel against Godwin (along with Crow) in the Season Finale of Season One. Then there was the WRGP in Season Two, where they, Crow, and Aki made up Team 5Ds. Yuma has teamed up with both Shark and Kaito (both of whom could be considered rivals) on separate occasions in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, and in the Season Finale of Season One, all three characters were a team. By the second season of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V Yuya's rival Reiji creates and leads the Lancers at the end of season 1, a team dedicated to fighting the Academia who are attempt to take over the multiverse. While Yuya joins the Lancers, he spends most of season 2 disgusted by Reiji and only joins at first to save his best friend/love interest Yuzu. By the end of season 2 Yuya makes peace with Reiji and then even team up together against Big Bad Leo Akaba. |

Dota 2 pits one side called the Radiant against another side called the Dire. Every playable character in the game is listed as being on either the Dire or Radiant side, but despite this a Radiant hero can end up on the Dire team or vice versa when a match starts. So anybody can be teamed up with anybody else, pretty much, even if the lore says that two characters hate one another's guts. Sometimes when this happens the two rivals will have mean things to say to one another, but will still work together. | |

Downplayed with Gary Oak from Pokémon: The Series. He's still Ash's rival, in a sense, but he's on friendlier terms with him, and the two do team up a few times against Team Rocket and also against Team Galactic in Sinnoh. Played with in regards to Ash and Paul...they team up from time to time, but Paul never displays any desire to improve his relationship with Ash (or with anyone) during all of these. Pikachu and Meowth any time they have to work together when separated from the humans. Ash and Alain develop a rivalry in Kalos, with Alain being the Always Someone Better for Ash — as well as an Unwitting Pawn for Team Flare and its leader Lysandre. When Lysandre shows his true colors and Team Flare declares war on Kalos itself, Ash and Alain (and a few dozen other trainers) team up to stop them and save Kalos. |

EXTRAPOWER: Attack of Darkforce: The hero Zophy and the pyramid witch Blackberry are commonly locked in conflict together. Blackberry seeks the resurrection of the ancient wizard Diamond Mine and to turn the world over to his control, and Zophy seeks to oppose her efforts at every turn. The two are forced to work together with the threat of the Dark Force invasion looming before them. At first, because Dark Force's commander Undata had stolen the diamond that houses Diamond Mine, and so working with the heroes brings her closer to reclaiming the diamond. And after, because there's no world for Diamond Mine nor Blackberry to rule if the Dark Force invasion succeeds. It remains an uneven truce, with Zophy willing to accept Blackberry's Heel–Face Turn but Professor Ace constantly antagonizing her and expecting her betrayal at any moment. | |

Happens on a constant basis of Captain Tsubasa. As early as the first arc, protagonist Tsubasa Ozora has his first match as part of Nankatsu against Genzo Wakabayashi and his Shutetsu, then the two become teammates for the Nankatsu SC team formed with the city's best players to tackle the nationals. Tsubasa would later team up with many of his former rivals in the school tournaments as part of the Japanese National team, including Hyuga, Matsuyama, Misugi, and many others. | |

The protagonist ("Gold/Ethan" or "Soul/Lyra") teams up with the rival ("Silver") against Clair and Lance in Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver. To writ, that's a grade-a Jerkass who's given you nothing but crap, teaming up with the happy-go-lucky protagonist against a Gym Leader and the Champion. If you win, "Silver" attempts to put things straight by giving the Pokemon he stole back to Professor Elm, but by this point he's learnt to treat Pokemon kindly, so his starter cares about him, so Elm lets him keep it. In most other Pokémon games, the protagonist is already on rather good terms with the Rival character (if not outright friends) and alliances between them happen all the time. |

Super Smash Bros..Brawl in adventure mode "The Subspace Emissary" many Nintendo characters (and some more) team up against Bowser, Ganondorf and Wario, though most of the times it's a Friendly Rivalry. Later in the story it becomes Enemy Mine when these three join to heroes's side to deafeat Big Bad Tabuu. Mentioned in page's quote a main theme of the game reflects these two tropes. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate also does this in adventure mode "World of Light", with even MORE characters. Franchise itself is based around this trope in Team Battle mode, when you can team up characters like Mario and Wario, Kirby, King Dedede and Meta Knight or Fox and Wolf against other characters. |

Cobra Kai in the second episode of season 3 both Daniel and Johnny have an Enemy Mine moment and team up to find Johnny’s fugitive son. The team-up barely lasts an entire episode because of the animosity towards each other’s style. In the season 3 finale episode it sticks longer than the one in episode 2. Daniel and Johnny both go after Kreese for going after their kids (Sam and Miguel). |
