But in the end, Pride tried to kill the only force standing in the way of Gospel. Even after KnightMan was defeated she still tried to continue the plan. A strong counter to her being anything but a villain in this scenario was her lack of any regret. She didn’t care. The only thing that stopped her was the castle’s traps backfired on her.

As for villains known they are villains, do note that the likes of Sigma, Copy X, Master Albert, and etc. do genuinely believe their actions are for the better of the world. Copy X was straight up crazy yet one of the last things he said was “I was supposed to be a hero.”

A strong theme in the Mega Man franchise is asking things like “which way is the right way?”, “what must be done to make progress?”, “does the ends justify the means?” And etc. Mega Man villains actually tend to have real a bit of depth to them. Sigma is a shining example.
