## Character

Evil Jake is an evil clone made from Negative Chi by Jake Long. He is accidentally created by Jake Long and tries to take his place by absorbing his Chi energy in the twenty-fifth episode of American Dragon: Jake Long "The Doppelgänger Gang".

## Backstory

Jake was overwhelmed with school, jump rope training, housework, and dragon training and therefore could barely sleep, so Lao Shi (his grandfather and also master) gave him an PMA (Personal Magical Assistant). Later that one night, Jake's AMP woke him up for emergency dragon training in Central Park, where Lao Shi taught him how to release internal Chi Energy to create dopplegangers (clones) to aid in battle and fend off the enemy. The next day, Jake was late for school again; he jumped during the double-dutch practically asleep and was too tired to watch Haley (his younger sister), and things get worse when he finds out that his father signed him up for Cougar Scout training. Meanwhile, at the store, as he couldn't take it anymore, Jake convinced Fu Dog into a "magic shortcut", which gave him a purple bottle filled with a chi amplifier that would help make doppelgangers obedient and good. Since Jake had four things to do at once, and the only lookalike at the time now known as Cougar-Scout Jake (the clone who went to Cougar Scout training) wasn't enough, he made three more: Study-Boy Jake, Double-Dutch Jake, and Chore-Hound Jake. After a while, that afternoon, Jake checked on his doppelgangers to see if everything was going according to plan, until he and Double-Dutch Jake knocked Brad Morton down with the rope, who ended up falling into a guy at his lunch with Jake slowly backing away. Brad grabbed Doube-Dutch Jake and tried to beat him up, but just as Professor Sun Park was walking by, Brad decides to postpone the challenge until later at the skate park.

Back at home, Jake and his doppelgangers were deciding who would face Brad until Study-Boy Jake suggested making another doppelganger. Just as Jake was about to do so, Spud and Trixie appeared and found out what was going on. Trixie warned him that it might be a bad idea, but Jake insisted he had everything under control, until he mistakenly picked up a green bottle to help make the next doppelganger. Jake created and explained the situation to his new doppelganger (Evil Jake), who seemed to have a sinister expression on his face. Jake gave Evil Jake the order to protect his face from Brad. When the time came, Evil Jake took it as a fight, blocking and grabbing Brad's fist, then squeezing it and letting go so that Brad would fall off the ramp. Upon learning this, Jake told Evil Jake that he needed to follow his orders like the rest of the 'Dopp Gang', but the new doppleganger informed him that he was not like the others.  Evil Jake then took the form of a dragon and attacked Jake, Jake also transforms into a dragon and tries to attack Evil Jake, but Jake feels weaker and ends up losing the fight, then Evil Jake flies away. Back at the store, Jake argued with Fu Dog because that Chi clone was evil and showed the green bottle he used to Fu. He tells Jake that the green bottle was a Negative Chi amplifier that made dopplegangers unpredictable and evil.  That "Evil Jake" and each doppleganger that was created would suck the Chi Energy from the original, making him weaker. In order for the evil doppleganger to be defeated, he would have to first reabsorb the other doppelgangers to regain the chi strength he had imparted to them. Jake was about to absorb Cougar-Scout Jake, but Evil Jake appeared and absorbed him first. Seeing that Evil Jake has the same idea, Jake ran to Chore-Hound Jake, but Evil Jake got there before him, Jake then went to the school, but finds that Evil Jake had already arrived at Study-Boy Jake, so Jake went to the back blocks, where he and Trixie were arguing about giving up Jump-Rope Jake. Evil Jake saw this and managed to absorb Jump-Rope Jake. Back again at the store, Jake explains to Fu Dog that Evil Jake absorbed all the doppelgangers before he could, but Evil Jake appeared at the store and declares that there was still one Jake to absorb. ....***the original***.

Fu Dog then throws a smoke potion at Evil Jake, and so Fu Dog and Jake escape from Evil Jake, hiding in the streets. Jake decides to try again to defeat Evil Jake the "hard way"(before, Jake was doing everything the easier way, and so now he decides to do things the hard way). Jake (who was flying in his dragon form) spotted Evil Jake in the forest, Evil Jake turns into a dragon and the two started fighting until Jake was knocked out, falling into a merry-go-round. Evil Jake managed to trap him and began to absorb him.

In the original, while being absorbed, Jake managed to muster the strength to make yet another doppelganger, another successful doppelganger without a chi amplifier, which distracted Evil Jake long enough for Original Jake to attack him three times, each attack releasing a doppleganger. Absorbed, now weakened by no longer having the Chi of the Doppelgangers, Evil Jake tried to fly away so he could escape, but the original Jake got close enough to successfully reabsorb him and thus Evil Jake ceased to exist.  The "Dopp Gang" congratulated Jake on his victory. Jake thanks them for the help and decides to conquer time management alone, without shortcuts and lies, and so Jake reabsorbs the Doppelgangers and regains his strength.

In the Bad Ending, Evil Jake absorbs too much power from Jake and thus he runs out of strength to make another Doppelganger. Evil Jake then completely absorbs the Original Jake Long (causing Jake to cease to exist). Evil Jake realizes that he has become more powerful, Evil Jake then starts to laugh and says that now is the end of the Magical Community, the World Dragon Council and also all Dragons.

## How and why he would join Bad End Friends

Evil Jake begins attacking and killing countless magical creatures. After a while of killing magical creatures, Evil Jake finds and kills Original Jake Long's family and friends (and also ends up absorbing the Chi energy of his grandfather and younger sister). Evil Jake, laughing, decides to create four clones and each of them destroys a large area of ​​his country. After causing a lot of chaos, the clones return to Evil Jake and he reabsorbs them. While Evil Jake admires the completely destroyed city something unexpected happens, a portal opens and two beings appear in front of him (Dark Danny and NomiRandy). Evil Jake, just by looking at Dark Danny and NomiRandy, deduces that the two are powerful and evil. Evil Jake asks the two who they are and what they want, Dark Danny looks around and realizes that Evil Jake was responsible for the destruction of the city. Dark Danny then says that they are looking for members for their group and invites Evil Jake to the Bad End Friends, Evil Jake finds the invitation interesting and even thinks about accepting, but Evil Jake says that before accepting the invitation they need to help him with "something", and with the help of Dark Danny and NomiRandy the three arrive on Draco Island, and then, Evil Jake, Dark Danny, and NomiRandy completely destroy the World Dragon Council. Evil Jake absorbs the Chi Energy of all dragons and thus becomes the most powerful dragon of all time. Evil Jake realizes that he has already destroyed the magical community and with the help of Dark Danny and NomiRandy, destroyed all the dragons. Evil Jake then accepts Dark Danny's invitation and thus Evil Jake joins the Bad End Friends.

## Appearance

Evil Jake has the same appearance as Jake Long: a teenager with semi-long and spiky black hair with green highlights. His outfit consists of a red jacket with yellow spots that slightly hides a white t-shirt, blue cargo shorts, white socks, and blue and grey shoes. But the difference is that Evil Jake has darker skin and clothes and his eye sometimes glows red with flames. In his dragon form, he is taller, thinner and has a darker shade of red, and now has hands with four claws and feet with two claws. Just like his human form, his dragon form is darker than Jake Long's.

## Personality

Evil Jake, from the moment he was created by Negative Chi, has always been arrogant and mainly evil, he doesn't care about others and loves to cause chaos for the pure fun of it. He never backs down from a fight (Jake told him to defend himself from Brad and doesn't attack him, but Evil Jake attacked Brad, which shows that Evil Jake doesn't shy away from a fight and that he loves to cause destruction) and loves to completely destroy his enemies and make fun of them.

## Abilities

•Agility/Acrobatics (Evil Jake, in his human form, can do parkour and incredible acrobatics)

•Dragon Form (Evil Jake can transform into a dragon and thus gain superhuman physical characteristics, such as strength, resistance, speed ​​and agility. In addition to also gaining wings, Evil Jake in his human form can transform parts of his body into a dragon (eyes that see in the dark, ears that hear at extreme distances, arms, tongue, sharp claws, wings, etc.)

•Fire Manipulation (He can breathe fire from his mouth and create fireballs from his hands, both in human and dragon form)

•Shapeshifting (It is stated that dragons have natural shapeshifting abilities and use a potion to tap into this power. Evil Jake, after absorbing the Chi energy of all dragons, does not need a potion to use this ability and succeeds in transforming into other people at will)

•Chi Energy/Doppelgangers (After completely absorbing the Original Jake Long, Evil Jake gained the ability to create five obedient clones that do not rebel against him. After absorbing the Chi energy of all dragons, Evil Jake gained the ability to create twenty powerful and obedient clones)

## Weaknesses

•Sphinx/Sphinx Hair (Dragons have a weakness for Sphinx hair. Woven into a web, it can render them completely powerless. Too much exposure can even render a dragon unconscious)

•Strong Winds/Intense Wind (Strong winds can prevent a dragon from using its fire breath, depending on the intensity of the wind)

•Left Ear (Dragons have a weakness behind their left ear where a successful attack can result in their death, as learned at Huntsclan Academy)

•Magic (Dragons can be vulnerable to spells, potions, and even the specific magical powers of other magical creatures like Gorgons)

•Brockium (A chemical that forces dragons to change shape against their will was developed by Sigmund Brock in his attempt to expose magical creatures to the world)

•Weakened Energy (The more clones Evil Jake creates, the weaker he will become, due to the fact that the clones absorb some of his Chi energy, but this weakness was overcome when he absorbed the Dragons' Chi energy and now he can create clones without being harmed )

•Clone Body (If Evil Jake had his Chi Energy absorbed by the Original Jake Long he would cease to exist, but this weakness was overcome when Evil Jake absorbed the Original Jake Long, causing Evil Jake to become the "Original")

## Interactions with the BEF

Evil Jake loves to cause chaos alongside Dark Danny and NomiRandy (and from time to time he even plays video games with NomiRandy and Zach Watterson). Evil Jake sometimes calls Evil Cuphead and Vile Mugman to cause terror and that's why he gets along good with both of them, Evil Jake wants to get even stronger and that's why he trains with Turbo K.O., Dark Danny and NomiRandy. Evil Jake also likes to cause destruction with Evil Jimmy and Nega-Timmy. Evil Jake finds Dark Impulse Mikey boring. Evil Jake doesn't like receiving help from Unlucky Lincoln (but Unlucky Lincoln helps him anyway)

## Trivia

•Although the name "Yang Jake" was apparently used in the production and script to differentiate him from the Original Jake, as the name was never used on the show, this is a rare case of Official but Not Canon, hence his canon name is Evil Jake

•Evil Jake was created by Negative Chi and is therefore evil, so if Evil Jake used Positive Chi, he would probably create a good clone that would not be loyal to him

•Many fans think that Randy, Danny from Danny Phantom and Jake from American Dragon: Jake Long look alike and have many aspects in common, such as dark, spiky hair, only his friends and a few family members know about his alter ego and his struggles with evil, because of this, many fans write fan-fictions and draw fan-arts that include all three and call them the "Secret Trio" (but these three in the Bad End Friends version have few fan-arts together, Evil Jake being the which has less)

•Many say Evil Jake is similar to NomiRandy from Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja and Dark Danny from Danny Phantom

•Evil Jake was the second BEF to receive help from two BEF to destroy his own world (Dark Danny and NomiRandy), the first being Nega-Timmy (who received help from Dark Danny and Evil Jimmy)
