Eddie Thawne (portrayed by Rick Cosnett; main: season 1; guest: seasons 2–3, 8) is a CCPD detective who transferred from Keystone City who is initially romantically involved with Iris.

Cosnett was originally slated to portray Jay Garrick in the pilot before the character was changed to Eddie Thawne. Many speculated his character to be the Reverse-Flash in disguise, due to his last name and appearance. His name is referred on Earth-2 from a list of contacts on a phone at Barry's and Iris's home, implying his Earth-2 doppelgänger's existence.

Cisco Ramon / Vibe / Mecha-Vibe

Francisco Baracus "Cisco" Ramon (portrayed by Carlos Valdes; seasons 1–7) is a mechanical engineering genius who works at S.T.A.R. Labs, also known by the superhero codename Vibe and later Mecha-Vibe. He develops a romantic relationship with Gypsy and later Kamilla Hwang. He is based on the DC Comics character of the same name.

Lonsdale also stars as the character on ''Legends of Tomorrow'' and originally auditioned to portray Jefferson "Jax" Jackson. He did not return full-time for season five due to wanting to seek other acting opportunities. It was always intended for Wally to be the son of Joe and brother of Iris, which differs from the character's comic history, as the producers felt it "weird" for second seasons of television series to introduce previously unmentioned cousins of established characters. The character inspired another character of the same name following DC's New 52 relaunch.

Clifford DeVoe / Thinker

Clifford DeVoe (portrayed by Neil Sandilands; season 4) is a mild-mannered professor and metahuman with superhuman intelligence, who seeks to fix all that he deems wrong with humanity as the Thinker and the main antagonist of season four.

He and his wife Marlize create a "Thinking Cap" and exploit the particle accelerator to power it, but its dark matter drains energy from his body and leaves him with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. They build a hover-chair to enhance him, but he develops a god complex and becomes apathetic and emotionless.

Hunter Zolomon / Zoom (portrayed by Teddy Sears, initially portrayed by Ryan Handley, voiced by Tony Todd; seasons 2-3 & 5) is a speedster from Earth-2 who is obsessed with becoming the only speedster in the multiverse and the main antagonist of season two. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said, in season one "with the Reverse-Flash, we just modulated Tom Cavanagh's voice, and this year we wanted to do something a little bit different or Zoom Part of the mystery of the season is who or what is underneath the Zoom outfit, and so we wanted to do something like James Earl Jones as Darth Vader — this iconic voice coming out of this mask." Hunter was a traumatized child (portrayed by Octavian Kaul) that witnessed his mother's murder at his father's hands, which triggered his bloodlust as a serial killer before he gained his powers from the particle-accelerator explosion on Earth-2. Dissatisfied, he sought to increase his speed with the Velocity serum but soon discovered it carried a fatal illness. Searching for a cure, he traveled the multiverse and captured Jay Garrick. Unsuccessful in stealing Jay's speed to cure himself, Hunter keeps Jay imprisoned with a speed-dampening mask. Inspired to be both hero and villain, he uses Jay's name as the fraudulent Flash of Earth-2 to instill false hope, which he then takes away as Zoom. Discovering Earth-1, he plots to increase Barry's speed and then steal it, sending various metahumans from Earth-2 to fight the Flash while also infiltrating the team as Jay. Zoom extorts Harry Wells into physically stealing Barry's speed by kidnapping Jesse Wells. He also becomes Caitlin Snow's love interest. After succeeding in stealing Barry's speed, Zoom brings his army of Earth-2 metahumans to conquer Earth-1 and construct a device capable of destroying the other Earths in the multiverse, to ensure he remains the only speedster. Hunter seeks to corrupt Caitlin's mind into being like Earth-2 Killer Frost and then Barry's by killing Henry in the same spot Eobard killed Nora, convinced that they are similar because of their childhood traumas. However, Barry ultimately bests Hunter in their final fight before two Time Wraiths arrive to punish him for his crimes against the time line; they transform him into the corpse-like Black Flash enslaved to the Speed Force. Subjugated to the Time Wraiths, the Black Flash makes occasional appearances in season three, such as to hurt Savitar before being killed by Earth-1 Killer Frost.

* Sears also briefly portrays the Earth-1 version of the character, a non-metahuman individual.

Jay Garrick / Flash

Jay Garrick (portrayed by John Wesley Shipp; seasons 2-4 & 6–8) is the Earth-3 version of Barry's father Henry Allen. Hunter Zolomon held Jay captive in a failed attempt to harness his speed before becoming inspired to take up his persona and falsely operate as the Flash of Earth-2; even going so far as to use Jay's name. To keep him from escaping, Zolomon forced Jay to wear a mask that suppressed his speed and prevented him from talking. After Zoom's defeat, Barry rescues Jay, who soon returns to his Earth. Jay adopts Hunter's Flash helmet as a symbol of hope, taking satisfaction in taking something from Zoom as the villainous speedster had done to him. Jay later learned from Harry Wells that Henry Allen is his doppelgänger and Barry is Henry's son. Knowing this, Jay watches over Barry as a sympathetic yet stern mentor, and a friendship develops. After undoing Flashpoint and trying to fix the mistakes left in its wake, he explains to Barry that time travel can have adverse consequences and that Barry must live with these mistakes. Jay also helps Barry come to terms with Henry's death and in battling Savitar. While they do banish Savitar to the Speed Force, Savitar later escapes, with Jay taking Savitar's place. After being freed, Jay joins Team Flash in the final battle to defeat Savitar. Jay later returns to help Barry use Flashtime, and reveals that he plans to retire and is training a protégée to become his successor as the Flash.

By season six, Jay has retired and settled down with his wife Joan. Barry does talk to him about the upcoming Crisis that is occurring in the Multiverse.

In season seven sometime after the Crisis, Jay is now living on Earth-Prime in Keystone City and regains his speed powers with the help of Joan. Before he can join the fight against the Godspeed Drones in Central City, he ends up taken captive by them to draw Bart out. It is revealed that the future of 2040 Jay Garrick helps mentor Bart Allen, and he gets killed by Godspeed, which makes Bart swear revenge to kill Godspeed/August Heart, not realizing that the real August Heart is comatose and that the people who killed Jay were actually Godspeed drones. Flash and Nora were able to rescue Jay and Bart with help from Mecha-Vibe. Jay later helped out in fighting the Godspeed Drones. Following Godspeed's defeat and Eobard Thawne getting away, Jay and Joan were present when Barry and Iris renew their vows.

In season eight, Jay's death in 2040 was erased upon Godspeed's death. Unfortunately, an event has erased Joan as Jay is married to a woman named Rose causing Nora and Bart to find the time anomaly responsible on December 31, 2013. After Nora and Bart fixed the timeline, Jay's marriage to Joan is restored as Jay mentions to Bart and Nora about his own time-travel adventures like one where he fought Nazis in World War II. Before departing, he mentions his upcoming meeting with President Lex Luthor. Jay and Joan from 2040 help Joe find Iris in the time stone that Darhk gave Joe. He later helps Barry in his fight with Thawne.

Based on the DC Comics character of the same name.

* Regarding the difference in his portrayal of Garrick over Allen, Shipp "figured Jay is my version of Barry" from the 1990 series, adding, "I went back and I watched a couple of episodes of the 1990–91 version to kind of remind myself what I did. ayis much more reminiscent of my Barry Allen from 25 years ago than my Henry Allen. I went back and I was amazed how much attitude my Barry Allen had in some situations. I went back and I picked up that thread and I brought it forward 25 years, and tried to weave it in."
* Shipp later reprises his role of Barry Allen from the 1990 television series in the crossover "Elseworlds". It is also revealed that the series is situated on Earth-90 and therefore like Garrick, this Flash is also Henry Allen's doppelgänger. Later, in the crossover "Crisis on Infinite Earths", he sacrificed himself destroying the Anti-Monitor's anti-matter cannon; taking Earth-1 Barry's place after the Monitor foretold "The Flash" must die during Crisis, but not specifying which one.

She believes that having superhuman power brings out the best or the worst in people, and acknowledges the Flash's heroism. Her hatred for Mark stems from survivor's guilt; when she was a teenager, she was supposed to make the deposit at the bank where her father died. When Patty gets her chance at revenge on Mark, the Flash persuades her to choose justice over vengeance. She leaves Central City to pursue her studies in the Forensic Science program at Midway City University. She also deduces Barry's secret identity and offers to stay if Barry confirms his feelings for her, but Barry admits nothing, not wanting to stop Patty from pursuing her studies.

He states to her that her condition is causing time to fracture around her. He advises her to notify him if it gets worse. As her time sickness got worse and worse, Deon got sick as well. Due to this, while Flash is brought into the Still Force by Deon, he double-crosses him and traps him in an area of the Still Force while making off with the device needed to find Iris. In reality, however, Deon lost access to his body and is now possessed by the Negative Still Force. He used some of his remaining strength to send X-S to save Flash. Deon later approaches the imprisoned Eobard Thawne and states that it is time to "fulfill his destiny". Their conversation ended with Deon killing Thawne by aging him to death and sacrifices Iris so that Thawne can be revived in his time remnant counterpart's body.
