User blog comment:Codytlane/PE Proposal: Tabuu/@comment-39032584-20191030200144

To the user who made this proposal, please remember to include sections about mitigating qualities (or, specifically, a lack of them) as well as how heinous they are by the standards of the work. Those are essential to providing other users with the information they need to make an informed vote.

Anyway, I was going to vote earlier today, but I didn't have the time. Now I do though. Even taking Galeem and Dharkon into account, I will admit I still think Tabuu is the closest thing the Super Smash Bros. games have to a villain's who Pure Evil, but in good conscience, I still have to vote no. In spite of doing some really heinous things like enslaving the R.O.B.s and having many of them act as the PG-equivalent of sucide bombers to activate the Subspace Bombs (which, ironically, the user who made this also neglected to mention), as well as cruelly manipulating several other characters into doing his dirty work by using Master Hand against his will, he still has practically no personality or character traits whatsoever. In fact, at least according to some supplemental information, the most likely motive he had is that he was very lonely due to being stuck in the emptiness of Subspace by himself (he is, afterall, likely the very embodiment of it), and therefore, he wanted to finally bring the world to him so he wouldn't have to just watch it from afar. If that's true, that's actually a somewhat understandable and sympathetic motivation. So he's one of those close, but no cigar cases.
