"Megamind": You dare challenge Megamind?!
Tighten: This town isn't big enough for
two supervillains!
"Megamind": Oh, you're a villain alright! Just not a
super one!
Tighten: Yeah!? What's the difference!?
"Megamind": ...PRESENTATION!

See, people love that cozy feeling Supes give them. Some golden c*** to swoop out of the sky and save the day so you don't got to do it yourself. But if you knew half the shit they get up to? Ooh... f***in' diabolical.
~ Billy Butcher describing what the "heroes" are really like.

A Supervillain is a villain who displays special powers, skills, or equipment powerful enough to be a typically serious challenge or threat to a superhero. The term has largely been coined by comic books, where superheroes fight similar to super-powered villains.

Supervillains exist not only in comic books from Marvel and DC Comics and are expanded to other media (in fact the honor of the world's first supervillain has often gone to Professor Moriarty of Sherlock Holmes, who predates modern comic books by many years):

It is a huge relief if the supervillain decides to redeem themselves and become a superhero themself, because then they become the complete opposite of who they were and may be able to defeat other supervillains (like Megamind and Tighten).

IMPORTANT: Note that supervillains only appear within productions with superheroes; however, superhero genre is vast and has many different takes. In general, it can be considered that any super-powered protagonist who fights at least one other super-powered antagonist can be defined as a "superhero" (and likewise, the antagonist will be recognized as a supervillain). They do not have to dress up in fancy costumes or follow the usual trend of Western comic books to qualify; they need only display powers and ambitions beyond those of the normal population in their setting.
