Awesome Bosses/Pokémon: Difference between revisions

* [[Crazy Awesome|Miror B.]] Hard? No. Epic? No. But he's a disco dude with an enormous Poké Ball-colored afro and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuhqoZvyntA the most hilarious Pokémon battle music ever.] What's not to like?

* The [[True Final Boss]] of the second generation and its fourth-generation [[Video Game Remake|remakes]]. You've obtained sixteen badges, and defeated every Gym Leader within your reach. Your team of [[Mons]] is fully-evolved and totally ready and pumped to kick some ass. You've literally defeated every other trainer in the two regions. Who could possibly be left to challenge you? [[Continuity Nod|Who else but]] ''[[Previous Player Character Cameo|Red, the protagonist of the previous game]]'', who after four generations still wields the highest-leveled Pokémon in the series (even taking his crown back from ''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|Platinum]]'''s rival in the DS remakes, with his Pikachu getting bumped up to level 88). He's got some of the most famous and traditional Pokémon from the three evolved Kanto starters to Pikachu, Lapras (in the remakes), and Snorlax, [[That One Boss|the last of which is easily one of the most difficult battles in the game]]. As if all that wasn't enough, [[Heroic Mime|he doesn't even '' say'' anything as you fight him, speaking only in ellipses as a callout to every player character's silence.]] It was an incredible way to tie the first two generations together and bring everything full circle. It speaks volumes of how awesome this fight is when there is ''absolutely no dialogue or context involved'' and it ''still'' manages to feel epic based solely on the [[Previous Player Character Cameo]].

* {{spoiler|Mewtwo}} as the final boss of ''[[Pokémon Rumble]]''. {{spoiler|Every time you clear a rank, you can see his silhouette in the background, and you finally find out why in the Rank S Battle Royale... [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere|When he comes out of absolutely nowhere]] in the middle of your battle with the Legendary Bird Trio, accompanied by [[Crowning Music of Awesome|an awesome remix of the original wild Pokemon battle theme]] from [[Pokémon Red and Blue|Pokemon Red and Blue]], [[That One Boss|as he focuses all of his most powerful attacks on you, while swarms of enemy Pokemon try to destroy you themselves]]. This is made even more awesome in Advanced Mode, where his silhouette is replaced by those of Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina... And he's still the final boss.}}

* [[Knight Templar|Cy]][[Big Bad|rus]] in the [[Eldritch Location|Distortion World]] in ''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|Platinum]].'' You're at the end of a confusing world where the laws of physics as you knew them have no meaning, led through the puzzles by [[Olympus Mons|Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf]], and before you get to go capture [[Eldritch Abomination|Giratina]], you gotta beat a guy who, if you fail, will [[The End of the World as We Know It|destroy existence]] and remake it in his own image as a world [[Empty Shell|without emotion, thought, or free will]]. Just that alone should point to how epic the buildup is, and the boss usually doesn't disappoint, especially not with the [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|epic music]].
