** However, you do get to fight Kamek in ''[[Mario and Luigi Partners In Time (Video Game)|Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' and ''[[Super Princess Peach (Video Game)|Super Princess Peach]]'', and the Magikoopa fought in ''[[Super Mario RPG (Video Game)|Super Mario RPG]]'' is implied to be him. Still, the Yoshis never get a crack at him.
** Finally averted in ''[[New Super Mario Bros Wii (Video Game)|New Super Mario Bros Wii]]'', where after 7 worlds of helping villains become more powerful (and before doing so in the final battle one castle later), Kamek finally fights you in a boss battle... straight after using magic to make the boss room filled with strange moving platforms and enemies!
* Kind of a weird example, but in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (Video Game)|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', {{spoiler|Ezio doesn't kill Rodrigo. Cesare does it himself. What's weird is that Ezio had already fought and spared Rodrigo twice and was intending to actually finish the job this time.}}
* In ''[[Sonic Heroes (Video Game)|Sonic Heroes]]'', the player pursues Dr. Eggman to the flagship of his airborne fleet, only to find out {{spoiler|it was actually Metal Sonic impersonating him after having gone rogue and launched an operation against the protagonists himself.}}
* Isoc in ''[[Mega Man X (Video Game)|Mega Man X]] 6'' never fights you, instead being found dead and [[Sequel Hook|seeming to set up a plot element for the sequels]], [[Aborted Arc|which never materialized]].
Line 109:
* ''[[Gunstar Heroes]]''. You never get to fight the evil emperor, because he gets nuked by the crystals he was trying to collect, which then open the [[Sealed Evil in A Can]] for the ''real'' boss fight.
* Arnold Leach from ''[[Clive Barkers Jericho]]'', while a [[Big Bad]], is never fought (contrary to what [[Urban Legend of Zelda|some players may tell you]]). It is possible to shoot at him during a later level, but it has no effect on him.
* In ''[[Beyond Good and Evil (Video Game)|Beyond Good and Evil]],'' General Kheck, the leader of the [[The Evil Army|Alpha Sections]], is never actually fought. While you do brush shoulders with him once or twice, your only actual combat encounter with him is actually with his ship. You fight his [[Tripod Terror]] from your ship, and it crashes and lands... but when you go inside, he's already dying, and all you get is an [[Almost
* Dr. Loboto in ''[[Psychonauts (Video Game)|Psychonauts]].'' While he's presented as the primary antagonist for most of the game, you neither get to enter his mind nor confront him directly as a boss. Instead he gets a lowly [[Disney Villain Death]]. Presumably for the same reason other heroes do: Raz beating up on ''mental'' baddies is OK, but real people? No.
** Also, [[Split Personality|The Milkman]], who after being awakened simply ignores Raz {{spoiler|and eventually burns down the asylum, completing his programming, then leaves Boyd's mind forever.}}
