The Rival joins forces with The Hero for whatever reason. Usually, much awesomeness ensues because basically, these two are the most Badass guys in the entire story at this point (and God help you if they can perform a Fusion Dance). Can be both temporary (due to The Only One Allowed to Defeat You sentiment, mentioned in Back-to-Back Badasses) and permanent (a Heel Face Turn if The Rival previously served the evil side, especially when Fire Forged Friendship ensues). Some genre-specific variations: Examples of Rivals Team Up include:

Some genre-specific variations: * In Super Robot Sentai anime, this Heel Face Turn is usually permanent and The Rival gets a pilot seat in the titular Humongous Mecha alongside The Hero. * In the Magical Girl genre, this almost inevitably happens to the Dark Magical Girl. The opposite of Rival Turned Evil. Bear in mind, however, that The Rival may not always be evil or an antagonist. He or she may simply be trying to one-up The Hero in doing good things. For generic cases of protagonist and antagonist (temporarily) teaming up against a common enemy, see Enemy Mine. Examples of Rivals Team Up include:
