Here's a sandbox for stuff that I felt wasn't major enough to make a page out of and didn't really fit in with any of my other sandboxes.

Fighters who have appeared in "Villain Ensembles"

Disclaimer: This list is purely for fun and speculation and thus should not be taken seriously.

A "Villain Ensemble" is a particular moment in Smash (whether it's an Event Match, a screenshot, etc.) that has a theme of "villains" or "antagonists". Below are some rules that determines a character's qualification on this list:

A minimum of three completely distinct characters from atleast three different universes must be required for a certain "Villain Ensemble" to get a mention. This is so a character like, say, Bowser won't have his examples filled with five Event Matches of him teaming up with Bowser Jr.
Moments that mostly/only contain "villainous" fighters, but are meant to represent something else or are too ambiguous to be considered "Villain Ensembles" will not count. This includes Simon's Classic Mode Route (as the opponents are supposed to represent the various monsters from the Castlevania series) and Satoru and Allen's spirit battles (as the side opponents in both battles are supposed to represent the various monsters from the Card Hero and Culdcept series respectively) for the former and Luigi's congratulations screen in Ultimate for the latter (as the theme for Luigi's Classic Mode Route (scary opponents) could very well apply to the image, as well).
If an antagonist appears in a "Villain Ensemble", but isn't treated as an antagonist there, it doesn't count as an example. For example, Meta Knight and Wolf's presences in The Subspace Emissary do not count, as the former doesn't play an antagonistic role in the Mode, while the latter doesn't appear in the main story at all. King Dedede's presence in The Rivals trailer does not count either, as he was not grouped with the other antagonists (and still isn't in the Best Friends trailer) and his only purpose in it was to trick the Kongs into believing K. Rool came back.
The character must have been an antagonist of their series (whether it's a recurring role or a one-time role, as the main antagonist or a minor one, as a full-fledged villain or just an anti-hero, etc.). Characters who have been villains before, but are universally considered heroes (such as Mario in Donkey Kong Jr. or Donkey Kong in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series) will not be counted.
Pokémon species are an exception to the above rule (since none of them are really "morally-aligned"), as long as they have something notably "villainous" about them (such as Greninja and Incineroar's Dark-typing (called "Evil-type" in Japan) or Incineroar's "heel wrestler" concept).
Alternate costumes of otherwise "good" characters that are meant to be evil (such as Link's Dark Link-inspired costume) or Mii Fighters will not be counted. Samus in her Dark Samus-inspired costume is an exception, but all moments with her in it will be listed under Dark Samus' entry and will be tagged as "Indirectly".

Note: If there's a specific Event Match/screenshot/whatever that's a "villain ensemble" that you feel I missed, then feel free to suggest it to me on this sandbox's discussion page.

List of Antagonist/Enemy Assist Trophies

Not a "List of Villain Ensemble Appearances", but here are all the Assist Trophies that have been antagonists or common enemies in their series. Italics denotes the Assist Trophies who are common enemies or species in their universe rather than their own individual characters.

Note: This will not include Poké Ball Pokémon because that would require research on the various pieces of media of the Pokémon franchise and which ones portray certain Pokémon as antagonists, and I just feel it isn't worth the time at all. I'm also not gonna make a section for the enemies and bosses because I feel that would be rather redundant.

Trivia

With a total of 6 appearances, Bowser has made the most appearances as a selectable fighter in fighter-specific Event Tourneys.
Discounting Heroes Vs. Villains, Bringing Back the '80s has the most fighter debuts, with 10.
- In contrast, Hefty Heavyweights and Brawl Veterans Represent have the least fighter debuts, with Incineroar being the only fighter to make its debut in the former and Zero Suit Samus in the latter.
- Spiky Vs. Round? The Ultimate Battle is the first character-specific Event Tourney to not have any character debuts.
Hero has the longest duration between his debut in an Event Tourney and his next appearance in another, having debuted in Heroes Vs. Villains and not making another appearance until Stop Hitting Yourself!, 11 tourneys later.
Young Link has appeared in 3 Event Tourneys in a row (having appeared in A Tribute to Melee, Some Training, Professor?, and Hailing From the '90s), the most out of any fighter.
A Tribute to Melee and Spiky Vs. Round? The Ultimate Battle are tied for the most fighters that have previously appeared in the Event Tourney right before it, with 5 each (Peach, Bowser, Ice Climbers, Zelda, and Mr. Game & Watch for the former; Kirby, Jigglypuff, Meta Knight, Sonic, and Cloud for the latter).
Original Class of '64 is the only Event Tourney to have more new fighters than returning fighters (this does not count Heroes Vs. Villains and The Ultimate Partnership, which only consist of new fighters).
Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield is the only Event Tourney to have an equal number of returning fighters and new fighters (if Pokémon Trainer is treated as a single fighter).
