The Brian, otherwise Pinky wouldn't stay with him.
Character that insist is evil but clearly isn't: Crowley from Supernatural.
But I think that character that is actually evil but still charming is more interesting, and for that I bring forward Baal from Stargate.

Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz
He is actually a really good dad throughout the show.
And because he's such a great dad, Vanessa gave him a basket full of recreational self destruct buttons for fathers day.

Literally Satan.
Among his greatest sins: trying to be a bro and let Adam and Eve know that they were naked in some perv's garden
Edit: come to think of it, it's not entirely accurate, as I don't think Satan ever claims to be evil. But there's a lot of anti-Satan propaganda in the Bible.
TV show Lucifer is a fun watch. The Devil gets tired of running Hell and decides to relocate to LA.
It would be so much of a better show if it wasn't such a copoganda. The writing is great, actors are great, but their insistence to suck cops dics and portray the police as this noble organization that is making the world the better place one brutalised civilian at a time is just tiring.

So a latteral move
More like a latte move.
Because you can't get a good latte in Hell and he'd have to move to get one and...
Laugh damn your eyes, laugh!
I love Lucifer. Every episode is exactly the same and it's amazing.
Tom Ellis made me question my sexuality.

I think you would really enjoy reading paradise lost. OK, maybe you wouldn’t enjoy reading it because it’s written in late 15th century iambic pentameter, and the anachronistic vocabulary makes it a bit of a slog— but it’s an incredible (apocryphal, but what about Satan isn’t?) story about how Lucifer became Satan.
Just make sure to get an annotated copy so you can understand what the hell is going on.

Megamind. Dude raised in prison and bullied his whole life, he just want attention from Metroman. Once he got the attention of Roxanne the act basically stopped.
He did more-or-less kill, and then steal the identity of, the museum guy. He's not a paragon of virtue, either.
He didn't kill him he used the dehydration gun which turns people into cubes. He can be put into water and will be back like nothing happens. He even used that in the finale to defeat Tighten

Well, he never says he's evil but is certainly seen as a villian: Dr. Victor van Doom. He's actually glimpsed all possible timelines of humanity and only the one where he reigns is not ending in destruction. https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-4d9668819558c73a8fda43cd4bc0ef0a-lq He is also loved by the people of the country he does rule. And when he had indeed managed to rule the world, it was a time of peace. I mean, mind control peace (he amplified the power of Kilgrave the Purple Man) but still.
If you're asking yourself why Kilgrave didn't simply control him, Doom is one of the few people with so much natural willpower that Kilgrave's powers don't work on him: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d5/e8/c8/d5e8c8ee71120993b8616128b08a6a22.jpg
Doom does a genocide every other month. There's something to be said for earnestly believing you're the good guy but you can say it about Hitler too.
Maybe I don’t know enough Doom lore but he seems not evil in the same way as Thanos. Sincerely believes that his way is the right way and the ego to try to force it on everyone else.
Or maybe Doom is not evil in the same way as saying Nazis made the trains run on time
Doom in the comics is more like movie Thanos than comic Thanos. Comic Thanos is legitimately mad and killed half the universe just to impress Mistress Death (she was not impressed).
He's basically Stark, Strange and Black Panther rolled into one, with the arrogance of Strange and Stark dialed to eleven.
He's completely capable of doing very evil shit to reach his goals but also has moral principles. He has tried to kill the Fantastic Four countless times and is still the godfather of the daughter of Reed and Sue. Her first word was "Doom".

Since my usual suspects are already mentioned, I'll go a little more esoteric - ProZD's "a villain who always does unintentionally helpful things" - https://youtu.be/GPUgjy-Pn-4
Heinz Doofenschmirtz!!!
If you have ever seen Gabriel Dropout I love the character Satanichia. One of the best anime comedy characters I've seen and yeah she matches this description so well.
I know hating on League is in vogue in some corners of the internet, but I really like Veigar. He claims to be the master of evil but hates that nobody takes him seriously because he's short and he takes umbrage with that. His voice lines are quite fun.
Imho League is an ok game with great lore and a terrible community.
Elphaba from Wicked.
Dr Horrible intended to be evil but never followed through.
