What would you do to make a Pokemon boss fight more interesting?

Boss knocks down your bag. No longer able to use items.

Probably what they're trying to do with ultra beasts.

Hopefully they aren't glorified pokemon battles where you can knock the mon out in 2 turns because the AI is retarded and has weak shit.

For the sake of the BOSS fight let them have over inflated stats so it feels like an actual fight.

Multiple HP bars.
Multiple Targets, kinda like the Totem Pokemon idea.

Also, if you know the Artists name, could you share? ily

>>28640405
strip battle

>>28640405
Getting stat boosts is cool

Give everyone a gun XD

>>28640405
Make a pokémon Stronger than the others who can call it's pre-evolution in the fight.
Wait...

>>28640405
You fight along side your Pokemon and the boss has super high HP and you have to not let your Pokemon get knocked out

>>28640405
>A lot of HP so they can't be knocked out within a few turns
>One or two weaknesses, if any weaknesses at all
>More moves/abilities/options than normal Pokemon
>Multiple phases
Essentially, a boss in any other RPG. Each boss should have something unique about them though, think the Septentriones from Devil Survivor 2.

it's mgq all over again

>1st, 2nd and hidden ability all active
>huge increase to HP
> all other stats increased
>perma weather or terrain set up
>other Pokemon help it and are replaced a turn after they get KO

>>28640405
environmental changes, quick establishing cut scenes and a bit of dialogue

Make it a triple battle against a generic JRPG style boss with overinflated health, overpowered AoE attacks and numerous status immunities.

>>28640405

6vs1 JRPG battle that goes over 2 hours and requires actual strategy and team balancing to win

>>28640405
>game reset

>>28641581
they said more interesting, not "how would you make it so a functioning adult never plays a pokemon game again?" I've got shit to do.

3v1 Battle, scaled up to be strong enough to not get insta-rekt. Regular team-wipe attacks. Self heal.

>Multiple HP bars
I just had a traumatic flashback to the Kingdom Hearts fight vs Maleficent when she has like 5 layers of hp bars

>Trainer only able to use starter
>Z/Mega bracelets broken
>Bag fell off
>Boss has 3 Pokemon
>Gengar
>Garchomp
>Fug

>Theme that plays during the battle

It's a shame the fanbase knows what should happen more than the devs.

>>28642770
Shit, clicked my own post, Im a fucking tard.
Meant to click>>28640405

>>28640446
I've always wanted really absurd boss fights where the life bar is red circles connected instead of Pokeball slots.

So after ~200 HP of damage it would move on to the next "Pokemon" and change form or get angrier or whatever.

Just a way to recycle the UI assets and maintain thematic cohesion. Then some batshit crazy secret final boss with 6 health bars haha...
