Fresh, DokiDoki, Go Princess, and to a somewhat lesser extent Hugtto all got their identities revealed by the end of the series (also the Happiness Charge Cures technically already were celebrities of a sort seeing as the concept of Precure was a global phenomenon in that series), this just pushes that up earlier in the season so we can see what the ramifications of something like that could be. I agree it’s probably not a good fit for a series like this though.

While an entire group of evil Precure might be a bit much but a slightly more amoral Cure could potentially be interesting (maybe using some kind of man made knockoff of the main team’s power source to get around the whole angle of usually having to preform some kind of heroic act first in order to activate the powers).

We’ve had plenty of instances of evil clones (which Dark Precure technically counts as), and a few involving brainwashing/mind control but I don’t think we’ve ever had someone with equal power to the primary team acting on her own will (the closest thing I can think of is Regina but she wasn’t a Cure).
