Line 48:
* In ''Ys Seven'', there's the first fight with {{spoiler|Scias in Altago Palace where you MUST lose after his HP is at half, since ALL attacks are BLOCKED (0 Damage) from then on ALONG WITH an attack that does 2k+ damage to you.}}
* In ''[[Pokemon Rumble Blast]]'', {{spoiler|at the end of World 2, you get a Team Battle with one of these. Lampshaded with a Help Sign stating that "things might not always go your way, but sometimes is a good thing." Hurts your pride if you don't read the sign, but is considered a Critical Hit after winning the Charge Battle to reach this zone.}}
** In ''[[Pokémon Rumble]]'', at the beginning, Rattata notices that the boss door is open and sneaks in. Of course, you can't win with level 28 against 100.
** Downplayed a little with Genichiro, the [[Starter Villain]] and tutorial boss in ''[[Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice]], ''at least the first time you fight him. It is technically possible - but difficult - for the player to beat him, but even if that happens, [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|Wolf still loses the duel in the following cutscene]], and Genichiro still lops his arm off. But take heart, you'll be able to kick his ass twice later in the game.
** In ''[[American McGee's Alice]]'', Alice cannot defeat the Jabberwock the first time she fights him. The objective of the battle is to survive and stall until the Gryphon can arrive to chase him away. Succeed, and you get the final component of the Jabberwock Eye Staff, a powerful weapon. Ironically, while the second battle with him doesn't fit the Trope (not only ''can'' she defeat him, she ''must'', because he'll kill her if she can't), the second fight is much, much harder than the first; probably the biggest reason being he has enough room to fully utilize his ability to fly in the second battle.
