Miles Edgeworth also notably helps Phoenix during a trial *where he is the prosecutor.* I think it was towards the end regarding the DL-6 incident, and one of the suspects/witnesses says something that would technically help his case (or at least not directly go against it). Then all of a sudden you hear him yell "Objection!" and he starts basically doing your job for you in a brief section. He literally teams up with Phoenix because he realizes the defendant isn't guilty, and he wants the actual bad guy put away.

I really like an antagonist that becomes the hero's friend :)

[@WillieManga]

Knuckles from Sonic 3. He's kind of an idiot, but he becomes playable in the expansion, and the sequel. And Sonic Heroes, most notably.

[@Jinka7]

Does PLAYING as your enemy from the first game count, or would it be another list? Because Golden Sun : TLA would fit the mold. First game: play as four heroes that try to prevent lighthouses from being lit. Second game: play as two "enemies" (plus two randos) from the first game, and _light_ the lighthouses. Also: I saw Axel/Lea from Kingdom Hearts in the comments, and I also vote for him.

[@OfMechanismAndMatter]

It always gives me heart to hear other bring up Golden Sun. Two of my favourite GBA games to be created by far.

[@Geheimnis-c2e]

Is having different methods of achieving a common goal (saving Weyland either via lighting the lighthouses and unleashing alchemy unto the world, forcing it to be rebirth or letting it rot slowly) considered "enemies"? Then again, Golden Sun is legendary. Shame Ivan, Mia, Felix and his co. don't have cameos in Dark Dawn.

[@MeowDeathStar]

Yeaaaaaah. Dr. Baldhead aka Faust. I loved his taunt, when he took of his paper bag to show his (obscured) face

[@olafgurke4699]

So he had a paper bag under his paper bag? That, in combination with that butt poke move... seriously reminds me of Kakashi.

[@jamesb4110]

What about the Geth, more specifically Legion, from Mass Effect?

[@Veladus]

The geth were never really an enemy though. The heretics were, but they definitely didn't become friends later. MAYBE "allies" if you were a douche and indoctrinated them.

[@undyne1]

Legion wouldn't count. However, the Geth in general would be kinda tricky for me since, yes they are enemies in the game but they never wanted to be in the first place.

You know, after you murdered me." 3:56 GLaDOS: "Thank you for participating in this Aperture Science computer-aided enrichment activity. Goodbye." 4:22 Wheatley: "There she is. What a nasty piece of work she was, honestly. Like a proper maniac. Do you know who ended up (inaudible) her, who ended up taking her down in the end? You're not going to believe this. A human!" 4:38 GLaDOS: "Oh, it's you. It's been a long time." Wheatley: "You know her?" 4:45 GLaDOS: "Stop! No! No! No! No! No! (high-pitched screaming)" 5:45 GLaDOS: "We're at an impasse. So what do you say: you carry me up to him and put me back into my body and I stop us from blowing up and let you go." 5:58 GLaDOS: "If you can get me in front of him I'll fry every circuit in that little idiot's head." 6:09 GLaDOS: "I thought you were my greatest enemy, when all along you were my best friend." Hope that helps! (Edited to fix a spelling mistake.)
