When, Mega Man 3? I thought the official story on that was that he was testing Mega Man.
And up to the end of Cossack's citadel in MM4. Wily found and more or less saved Proto Man as he was on the verge of shutdown, and he did not know of Wily or Mega Man's true natures, though he would come to learn them over the course of those two games.
The reason he would not fight Mega Man for long is due to the nature of the atomic energy reactor Wily used to fix him; it would not allow him to fight for the long haul.
As for X and Vile, keep in mind that the only game out when that ep was made was the first one, where neither really had much in the way of personality, with something like Maverick Hunter X being over a decade away. X had all of ONE line of dialogue!
The ending clearly spelled out that X was a pacifist, but then again I wouldn't expect ruby spears to actually beat a Mega Man game
I don't know if I'd say "clearly." It definitely seems clear in hindsight, but at the time, I'm not sure many really saw it that way.
Something else to consider is that it could have been the result of any number of external factors as well: Capcom decree (something fans of the Sonic comic should be rather familiar with), or focus groups. Trust me, the original goal for the cartoon was a LOT truer to the games, but focus groups led to what we got as the end result. X could have been a victim of that as well.
Just having them there was cool enough, and based strictly on the game, it's difficult to say that X running around and blowing the crud out of anything and everything is out of character.

that's true. It's just funny how completely different Vile's character turned out. I was kinda surprised when I found out he was a murder-happy psychopath
I don't know anyone who didn't love his voice.
And in a way, he still was. Maybe without the "happy" part, but the emotion lines were silly, anyway, especially as you could see and hear him get quite agitated in that episode.
