Bowser

This defeat only made Bowser lust for conquest even more, as he couldn't stand his pride being hurt by two mere mustachioed plumbers. With every loss, Bowser's drive to win grew stronger, and while he originally kidnapped Princess Peach to prevent her from undoing his curses, he actually grew a crush on her over time, even attempting to force her into marrying him in Super Mario Odyssey.

While Bowser holds an intense grudge against Mario, this seems to be one-sided, as Mario is always quick to forgive the Koopa King and still invites him to race go-karts and play tennis with the rest of his friends, because Mario doesn't believe the king's childish nature to be "true evil".

Born to the Royal Koopa Family, King Bowser Koopa had always been a demanding tyrant, even when he was just a young spoiled prince, but when his hunger for more called him to invade the Mushroom Kingdom and kidnap it's ruler, he was defeated the Mario Bros.
