The way I see it is Necessary Evil is a character who plays a part in their settings that is needed to maintain balance that otherwise would cause greater problems. To be honest Death Gods can be hard to be labeled Pure Evil as typically they are doing their cosmic job even if at times it's cruel. I personally have never heard of a character who's both necessary to the setting while also Pure Evil. I assume in theory it might be theoretically possible but I find it highly improbable for someone to actually fit both.
