Their antagonists are just mostly flawed people. White-and-Grey Morality: The usual main dynamic of the Equestria Girls world.Only the Dazzlings, the Shadowbolts, Vignette Valencia (in one of the Multiple Endings of the short 'Inclement Leather') and Su-Z (in all the endings for 'Lost and Pound') have returned in speaking appearances. Out of Focus: The majority of them barely appear outside of voiceless cameo appearances after their initial debut, especially those who perform a Heel–Face Turn.One of the 'bad guys' in particular didn't even know they were being bad. Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds: With the exception of the Dazzlings (who were from Equestria originally), most of the 'villains' in the Equestria Girls world are just rather mundane people who haplessly come across an Artifact of Doom created by Equestrian magic combined with their own character flaws and inability to comprehend the scope of their new powers causing trouble for everyone else.A Lighter Shade of Black: Compared to the Friendship Is Magic villains who are fairly straightforward, Most of the Equestria Girls villains are mostly very flawed people whose personal social issues inadvertently put the characters and the world in danger.Heel–Face Turn: A series tradition that seeps into Equestria Girls, as the vast majority of the villains end up redeemed one way or another.Some of them, however, have done awful things that you'd expect not to merit this treatment. Easily Forgiven: Most of the villains get a Heel–Face Turn after they're defeated.Artifact of Doom: Most of the magical antagonists have an artifact or two that allow them to be even bigger threats than they would be on their own.Arc Villain: Outside of a few exceptions (like Sunset Shimmer and Midnight Sparkle), most of the villains never really appear or gain a major role after their first appearance.The Dazzlings and Principal Cinch are the only notable exceptions to this.

It also explains why they are Easily Forgiven by the Equestria Girls. It's just an unfortunate byproduct of their own recklessness simply not realizing the powers and scope of their dangerous Artifact of Doom. Anti-Villain: When it boils down to it, the villains are just flawed individuals who have very mundane and normal human goals and desires like everyone else and really don't intend to cause the complete destruction of the world and nearly killing the cast.Antagonist Abilities: Most of the abilities granted to the villains by their Artifact of Doom are ridiculous: Mind-Control Music, the ability to transform other people into demons loyal to you, the ability to tear the fabric of space and time, Laser-Guided Amnesia, and so on!.Lackies (Snips and Snails) and members of an ensemble (the Shadowbolts) have been male, but the main honchos are all female. Always Female: There are no male main antagonists in the sub-series.
