HIM is, for all intents and purposes, the Devil, though it's never stated outright. HIM looks like the archetypal Devil – curly black chin beard, pointed ears, red skin – with the addition of lobster claws. HIM is empowered by fear, and generally fights through psychological warfare.

Roach Coach
- Photo:
Roach Coach is basically Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force with an affinity for roaches. In fact, he's a robot controlled by a roach, hence the name of the episode "Insect Inside." He controls roaches and fights the girls with an army of the disgusting creepy crawlies.

The Salami Swami
- Photo:
The Salami Swami is an amalgamation of several offensive stereotypes. He's a Middle Eastern man who wears a turban and flies on a magic carpet, playing his snake charmer's flute. However, instead of charming vicious reptiles, he charms sausages.

Dick Hardly
This is a very real Powerpuff Girls character, and his name somehow made it past the censors. Dick Hardly is Professor Utonium's college roommate, a womanizer, and an all-around terrible person. He attempts to create his own Powerpuff Girls, and winds up with "the Powerpuff Girls Xtreme," horrifying mutants with shortened life-spans. He tries to replicate Utonium's work, but his malice and resentment ultimately leads him to failure.

The Broccoloids are an alien race of sentient broccoli. In "Beat Your Greens," they try to control Earthlings by putting mind control spores in their veggies. Somewhat disturbingly, the Powerpuff Girls achieve victory by eating the Broccoloids.

As you might guess, Sedusa uses seduction to manipulate men into doing her bidding. In addition to being extremely reductive, this is a bizarre message to include in a show that also features a radioactive glue monster. She uses her animated hair to fight with the young superheroes, and even seduces the mayor in an episode filled with Big Lebowski references.

Toilet Mouth

The Boogie Man
- Photo:
The Powerpuff Girls' version of the Boogie Man has one added trait that makes him unique: he's got Saturday Night Fever. In the wonderfully named episode "Boogie Frights," the Boogie Man shows up – a lumpy blue dude with big white horns in a white suit and white platform shoes. His dastardly plan is to block out the sun with a giant disco ball so the monsters can all party in Earth's perpetual night.

The Amoeba Boys
- Photo:
The Amoeba Boys are a gang of amoebae and an amalgamation of the Three Stooges and flapper era caricature gangsters. They're the least troublesome of the Powerpuff Girls' foes – the worst crime was stealing a single orange. In spite of their failings, one does have to admire their pursuit of villainy.

Mojo Jojo
- Photo:
Mojo Jojo is a chimp with the mind of a genius and the fashion sense of a glam rocker. He's a mainstay in the Powerpuff Girls universe, despite the tiny, horrific detail that his brain pokes out of his skull. Plus, his broad accent is troubling, to say the least.

Fuzzy Lumpkins gets credit for being the very first villain in the series, debuting with the Powerpuff Girls in the pilot "Meat Fuzzy Lumpkins." He is a mishmash-y hodgepodge of Big Foot, Mork, Stimpy, and a pink bear. Unfortunately, his characterization veers into nasty stereotyping territory: Fuzzy is presented as an uneducated hillbilly with a banjo.

Femme Fatale
- Photo:
Femme Fatale is a feminist bank robber with a gun shaped like the Venus Symbol. She's also problematic. In "Equal Fights," she'll only steal Susan B. Anthony coins because it's the only currency without men on it. However, it's revealed that she doesn't even know who Susan B. Anthony is.

Lou Gubrious/Hal Larious
- Photo:
Lou Gubrious, like his name implies, is a sullen scientist. A storm cloud perpetually hangs over his head, and he is always downcast. He invented a weapon called the Miseray to make others experience his sadness. But, what's most interesting about this character is his Jekyll and Hyde quality. When he is happy he wears a bright red coat with a pink flower in the lapel, a yellow polka dotted blue bow tie, orange pants, and a tiny little red hat. In this merry state he goes by the name Hal Larious.
