Trickster

Often more of an annoying nuisance than a fearsome or dangerous enemy, a Trickster'may take many forms, from a con artist to a mischievous imp. Adventures with trickster type villains tend to be light and comedy oriented and the hero typically finds a way to defeat them non-violently. Sometimes there may be a lesson learned from the trickster, even if it's unintentional. But sometimes, there are dangerous and (sometimes) serious villains that deploy very sneaky tactics and deceptive techinques to fool their enemies and/or the heroes.
