Line 35:
* ''[[Final Fantasy]]'':
** Tonberry King
** Likewise the Jumbo Cactuar/Gigactaur, which is a gigantic version of the Cactuar enemy, with an upgraded version of its trademark attack that deals ten times as much damage. And a ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120117223810/http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/11328/389137-jumbocactuar8_large.jpg MUSTACHE.]''
** Also the Bomb King, the occasional Behemoth upgrade, and a fair number of other enemies throughout the series.
** Flame Eater from VI was practically a King Balloon, and Dadaluma was practically a King Iron Fist. The bosses each summon the enemies for reinforcements.
Line 92:
* ''[[The World Ends With You]]'' has four [[Bonus Boss]]es and three regular bosses that work like this. Noticeably, the regular bosses act fairly different from their smaller counterparts.
* ''[[Persona 3]]'''s Tartarus level bosses were all like this, though color swapping mooks is a cottage industry in ''[[Shin Megami Tensei]]'' games.
** Similarly, in ''[[Persona 4]]'', the [[Sub Boss|sub-bosses]] encountered mid-way through each dungeon and the [[Bonus Boss|bonus bosses]] that take up residence in previously completed dungeons are all King Mooks. In fact, the first one of these you will encounter appears in Yukiko's castle, and is literally a king. He's a bit of a [[That One Boss/Other Games/Atlus|pain]].
** Even ''[[Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne]]'' uses this, despite most of the enemies being drawn from a very large selection of mythological figures.
** There's also the more literal case of the recurring King Frost, a giant version of the series [[Mascot Mook]] Jack Frost with a crown and scepter.
