It depends. If the main characters main (hate to use the same word so often, but can't think of anything else) characteristic is his/her intelligence, then an equally intelligent villain would be the best choice in my opinion. Maybe somewhat different kinds of smart, such as the MC having the edge over pure mechanical thinking and the villain being more creative, or viceversa. As for the minion question, I personally prefer some kind of associate or partner instead of an actual minion. Maybe he/she could be a minion in the sense of the villain manipulating him.
