The ability makes you discard an evil card from hand or battle for every evil color you have in play.
Say I have 2 colors in play. If I only have 1 evil card (a negate) in my hand and my 1 evil character in battle. Do I have to discard both of my cards, or can I negate it? If I choose to discard my character, can I play my negate since I would have intitive because of removal?

I think you can play a negate. what is Job overcomes SA?

It is basically what I put, but here it is:
"For each evil brigade your opponent has in play, that opponent must discard an evil card from hand or battle. You may draw a card."

You'd have to discard enough cards to fulfill Job Overcomes' SA before you could play a negate. So if it targets 2 evil cards and that discards your only negate and your only character in battle, you'd not be able to play a negate.

Ok that is what I thought would happen. Thanks!

yeah, same applies with like, 3rd Heaven I think?... the card that lets you look at an opponents hand and put one evil card under the deck. If you pick a negate, they cant use that negate to negate the ability thats putting it under the deck in the first place. :D

Here is the relevant quote from the REG. Although it has to do with Dominants, I see no reason it should not apply to enhancements as well.
Dominant cards may be played at any time (see Dominants Played During the Battle Phase in the rulebook [p. 28]), but abilities that take effect instantly must resolve first. For example, if your hand is targeted for discard (e.g. Primary Objective), Son of God may not be played until Primary Objectives special ability has resolved. By that time, the card is already discarded and cannot be played.
