It is still technically possible for villains to get this badge, as the mission on which it can be farmed was not removed from the game when the [[Valentine's Day Event 2006]] ended.  So, if a player can be found who still has unrun instances of the appropriate mission leftover from the event, the badge can be earned.
 
 
The key for earning this badge for villains has to do with the fact that the devs tried to prevent villains from earning it, but forgot one element of the Red Caps powers.  The villains in the Snaptooth mission are listed as belonging to the '''RedCap''' faction (no space).  They do not count.  Only villains in the '''Red Cap''' (with space) faction count for the badge. 
 
 
But one of the abilities that some Red Caps have is that, when badly injured, they respawn themselves as an upgraded version.  Minions respawn as Lieutenants, and Lieutenants respawn as Bosses.  In the Snaptooth mission, when one of the '''RedCap'''s respawns themselves, the new version belongs to the original '''Red Cap''' faction, and will count for the badge when defeated.  So, to earn the badge, 333 '''RedCap'''s must be induced to respawn into '''Red Cap'''s.
