The Hardest Tutorial Bosses in Nintendo History

[@NintenUnity]

Falkner in main Pokémon games: 🤡 Falkner in Pokémon Stadium: 👹

[@GlitchanBlack]

Who gave the already GOATed Johto Gym Leader access to a Legendary?!

[@LordRemiem]

I'd have probably chosen Brock in Yellow version but you've been smarter than me 😂

[@deathblowringo4168]

I'll explain Falkner's team in Round 2, All of his pokemon except Gligar have Mud-Slap, Also his Pidgeot, Skarmory and Zapdos have Sky Attack. Zapdos uses a combination of Mud-Slap + Bright Powder to mess up Rock Types trying to hit it with Rock Slide which it's accuracy is 90% Skarmory has a Quick Claw, meaning it can unexpectedly strike first and even mess up your pokemon with Mud-Slap. Charizard holds a Scope Lens, increasing its critical hit chance, a fun fact it has 2 Ground moves, Earthquake and Mud-Slap. The rest isn't as good, Pidgeot holds a PRZCureBerry, Dodrio holds a Miracle Berry and Gligar holds a Focus Band Haze can deal with the Accuracy drops, Aerodactyl seems a good choice against Falkner if it has Hidden Power Rock (Ancient Power PP's may be short but with 3 PP ups it has 8 PP, the 10% secondary effect chance helps in any situation), however it can't deal with Zapdos since it will take serious damage from a single Thunderbolt due to its flying type, you can use your own Zapdos that has Thunder Wave, Hidden Power Ice and Whirlwind to cripple it.

[@Thiefthebat]

[@rydrake9509]

Looks impossible on Switch especially when stuck with rental with awful movesets IV and EV

[@Twillek1019_]

The announcer: “It seems to be impervious to that attack” The Pokemon: *loses a slither of health* The Game: “it’s super effective!”

[@timothypitcher7996]

In fairness, Mud-Slap is a weak attack, so its only real purpose is to lower the target's accuracy.

[@notspoileratall5471]

It's super effective to the player's mental health 😂

[@deedgemaster]

What if you wanted to go to heaven But god said “accuracy fell”

[@dopebrwnboygaming]

[@zacharymagnusson2873]

You forgot about the Piranha Plant boss in Mario Party DS. When I was younger, I could not get past that boss, and despite being the hardest boss in the game, he is the FIRST boss!

[@ranggaaditiaabrory7034]

Me too. I always stuck in that boss level because i can't press the A button so fast so it true that piranha plant is the hard one in Mario party DS. I even ask my brother to help me to mask the A button

[@A134-z8g]

Me too but tbf I always sucked at mashing buttons minigames so I just assumed it was my skill issue

[@baxterbruce9827]

Nah, it requires better mashing than basically anything else in the game, ALL the other bosses are so much easier

[@SuperLuigi-jz5gl]

I almost could not beat that boss until I used a technique that helped me beat it (btw I used the practice mode to my advantage) I set my DS on a flat surface and mashed the buttons as hard as I can. I succeeded!

[@zanechaltry5584]

Oh god that back memories so hard. I still have the game. I remember finally beating that thing it was the best moment for me as a child

[@tedscheett9420]

And this is one of the many reasons Accuracy/evasion strats are banned or frowned upon.

[@dylancross1039]

There are enough moves that bypass accuracy checks at this point

[@derpsdeluxe]

@@dylancross1039 There’s actually a lot less than you’d think. If we aren’t counting signature moves like Flower Trick or moves that need specific conditions like Blizzard then there’s only around 13 attacking moves that can’t miss. A lot of these moves are on the weaker side too like Shock Wave so they’re not always worth using.

[@Super_Top_Secret_Area]

​@@dylancross1039 Those moves are bad, so by allowing accuracy drop/evasion raise moves you'd only be making the game worse.

[@devonm042690]

In games with multiple difficulties, the first boss on the hardest difficulty is not a tutorial boss.

[@katieshaw5972]

Your smart

[@Blazieth]

Even if you do decide to allow it, there is a difference between "First time player decided to play on the hardest difficulty" and "In order to access this difficulty, you must beat the game first". Round 2 Falkner is not a Tutorial Boss.

[@vincentfichtler7758]

And sometimes the first boss isn't always the easiest boss.

[@VGPorage]

At least when it's a locked difficulty that you get access to by beating the game on Hard. That solodifies that it's not going to be your first boss encounter in that game.

[@yokaipinata1416]

This is _especially_ true for Wario Land 4, because to unlock Super Hard, you have to complete the game on Hard; and well, if you've already beaten the game before, you don't need a tutorial. ❤

[@maneruloquendero]

If something can go wrong for the player in Stadium2, it will go wrong. The RNG is always against the player

[@fandenovelas777]

Dont forget the game laughting at ur face. Fissure hitting still is something else

[@timothypitcher7996]

@@fandenovelas777 And what can feel even more infuriating is knowing that 1-hit KO attacks used to only work when the user's current speed is higher than the target's current speed. But as of the 2nd generation, they can hit, regardless of speed, but not if the target's level is higher than that of the user.

[@I_am_void_Fr]

Just from that gameplay I feel emotional, physical and mental pain

[@timothypitcher7996]

If you don't have Faint Attack or something that's immune to Mud-Slap, you're in for a long day. And sadly, Zapdos's presence makes the predicament even worse, since unless you have a Gligar, it'll send your Flying-types to their grave very quickly.

[@charlescaulkins8306]

They really embody the annoyance of birds. That’s why Tsubame Gaeshi exists

[@Space_Astro]

I was wondering the exact same thing.

[@Tydes8790]

Not really a boss, but I feel like the Yoshis in Mario Strikers: Battle League's tutorial deserve an honorable mention. Some tutorials there were so difficult that Nintendo actually made them easier in an update 😂

[@JoshuaThompson-ut4fb]

💀

[@gicrueldad9520]

Just like Smash Ultimate character battles. The "New challengers" were incredibly strong so that they didn't lasted more than a week after release and they nerfed them all, if I had to guess they locked them to max difficulty at first and then just lowered them to half or weaker.

[@thepizzaman6310]

Falkner may as well be the ground gym leader, as he sure does love mudslap

[@latexu95]

7:53 That's probably the most hardcore first boss music ever!😆🎸

[@solidzack]

Since the Metal Gear Solid triology was released for Switch, lemme mention that MGS 2 has an absolutely cracked prologue boss. If you fight Olga Gurlukovich at European Extreme difficulty your Life bar doesn't matter anymore: A single hit will kill you, and she keeps firing at you from cover. Additionally Olga will trigger obstructions as the battle progresses and on the lower difficulties you can disarm them, but not on the highest difficulty, meaning you have to take blind shots. And it gets even crazier if you are aiming for the Big Boss rank, because if you die you have to reload your last save, but the rank only permits 8 saves in total, meaning you probably shouldn't save in the entire tanker prologue at all. So if you make a single mistake in this battle you have to restart the entire game.

[@Paramount_Phoenix]

Falkner spamming Mud Slap is so damn annoying. I hate facing evasion strategies.

[@Terraflare94]

Hence why I have a few no miss moves on at least 2 pokemon in my team

[@TheErikalovey]

Trust me, the tutorial boss in F-ZERO GX is the time limit to get all of the capsules

It only cheats in story mode. Grand Prix races are honest, and the most of the AI is extremely good and aggressive. Aggressive might be some are blood thirsty or some might just boost to near suicide to stay in the lead.

[@mega-swampy1311]

An honorable mention is Brock in the Kanto games if you picked Charmander(Red, Blue/Green, Fire Red, Leaf Green) since your only options for super effective moves are the Nidos(FrLg) and Mankey(also FrLg), this makes RB Brock brutal because Karate Chop is Normal in Generation 1, meaning the only effective ways to take on Brock is with Burn or Poison stalling with Charmander, the Nidos, or the Weedle line or using an overleveled mon, it only gets more difficult if you didn’t catch Mankey or a Nido in FrLg as Onix now has Rock Tomb, luckily they gave Mankey Low kick in Yellow, but in Red and Blue/Green, you have no way of dealing super effective damage against Brock

[@TunaBear64]

In Red and Blue you can just use Butterfree. Rock moves? Nope, Brock only has Tackle as a damaging move, Tackle... Anything with Growl is basically unlikable (like Charmander) Anything learns a STAB special move is gonna out damage his Pokémon (like Charmander) His Onix is an absolute joke btw, the only Pokémon I can think of that can't defeat his Onix, is a Magikarp.

[@mega-swampy1311]

@@TunaBear64 in red and blue, the only mon with neutral damage is indeed butterfree’s Confusion against brock, the only problem with caterpie, it’s a 5% encounter rate in red

[@solidzack]

In FR/LG Charmander learns Metal Claw early on, which is Super Effective against Onix. Even so, Onix has really high defense but its other stats are pathetic, so you can just as well spam STAB Ember and it will still do some damage and occasionally waste Brocks turn, healing off burn. Also Brocks moveset is just awful in Red and Blue. But in Pokémon Yellow it's a different story. Pikachu can legit do nothing to it, but lower its stats, since quick attack only deals like 1 damage and it learns it's next best move Slam at level 20. So you have to use another Pokémon for Brock. Mankey can be caught at Lv. 5 and learns Low kick at Lv. 9. Both Nidoran learn Double Kick at Lv. 12. Butterfree learns Confusion as soon as it evolved at Lv. 10. These 4 are basically your only consistent options, but a new player would still have to figure this out (you'd likely ditch Butterfree and Mankey at some point, since they have a tough time in the late game). Also Onix now knows Bind, which in Gen. 1 is just unfair. Plus you cannot purchase Potions before Brock.

[@smashmallow1012]

yknow, if you're an idiot who willingly picks the worst starter in the series. (there i said it.)

DKC tropical freeze shouldn't be in the list, in a normal playthrough its much easier than every other boss of the list

[@zeospark9715]

Especially when you're using Funky Kong

[@KingOfTheBlobs]

Playing the original was the first time I had ever really raged at a game

[@nbboxhead3866]

Well, it's still a lot harder than your typical 3-hit Mario boss (which definitely shouldn't be the difficulty standard, but here we are) Plus, it seems to be ranked on how hard it gets on a higher difficulty, and because Tropical Freeze has a hard mode it makes it a lot more challenging.

[@timothypitcher7996]

You'd be amazed by how significant the difficulty becomes when playing in Hard Mode. Take damage even once, and you have to redo the entire boss battle from the very beginning, and those very bosses take 3x more hits to defeat than your typical Super Mario series boss.
