Hi

[@MasterKirby]

Yes. :)

[@aquabat7777]

Pokémon Rumble Blast has a similar vittually unwinnable first stage battle against Zekrom, and another later on against Cobalion. The final boss also puts up a barrier when its HP reaches half that leaves it immune to attacks and gradually fully healed, that is removed after a cutscene. There’s almost certainly cheats that exist for that game, so perhaps that could be covered?

[@5spec]

Porky's theme has elements from old Godzilla songs

[@ballistickgamerya941]

I myself reflected the beams, dodged, and used stasis to defeat it. (Also attacking of course)

[@so0meone]

Wait, you're telling me that the reason Bowser is "invincible" after using the Star Rod in the prologue fight is just that the game gave him +1 defense?

[@archmagemc3561]

Hallway Bowser gets +3 defense when using the star rod. HOWEVER, this defense is unpiercable unlike anything else in the game. Meanwhile Super Bowser's star rod gives him infinite unpiercable defense. (This is the refight, not the glitch seen here. this fight is a bit different as you have seen.) Speedrunners just tend to beat hallway bowser so fast you never see this in action.

[@kritz9997]

Ridley can (sort of) be beaten in the beginning of Super Metroid with just your regular beam. Shoot him 100 times without your health going under 30, and he’ll drop the baby metroid and then pick it back up and fly away like normal. It’s much easier to do this after doing the reset glitch with the space-time beam, but seeing Ridley drop the baby metroid is just a small self imposed challenge at the beginning of the game.

[@devilblackdeath]

Came to say this, take the upvote instead ;) I thought it was a matter of damage, glad to know it's not. I do wonder what would happen if we kept hitting him with Super Missiles though while not going below 30. Would he still fly away after 100 Missile hits or could he actually die ?

[@Suichimo]

@@devilblackdeath It'd be the same thing. Ridley, in the beginning of Super Metroid, doesn't register damage, just number of hits. So 100 hits with a super missile will be the same as 100 hits with the arm cannon.

There's an extremely low chance that Wally will defeat the Ralts he's supposed to catch at the beginning of RSE. If he does, the end of the cutscene outside of battle plays normally, and it actually saves a bit of time.

If you use emulation and a randomizer on the rom it can affect Wally's catching tutorial in hilarious ways if you chose to randomize the tutorial pokemon. Should he get KO'ed you're given the option of sending out another pokemon, of which Wally has none. Saying no ends the fight normally. Saying yes makes the game lose its mind and glitch out hard while attempting to unbreak itself.

I vaguely remember winning with Rattata being possible, I'm even confident I done it once after a ridiculous amount of tries but that was forever ago. To even have a chance you have to be suicidal getting close enough to the other pokemon to kill steal while the stronger ones do most of the damage (because if you don't defeat them you don't get timers) whilst not being hit by anything. The stronger pokemon can then be taken out by hitting them again the walls which seems to do a percentage as the stronger the pokemon the more damage they take from it.

[@mastermewtwo5503]

The objective in stage 2 in Age of Calamity is defeating the guardian (despite the game yelling at you to not engage), and the mission to go around activating idle guardians merely reduces its HP to something more manageable for casual play. If you do fight the guardian straight away though, after a bit it'll start trying to ignore you so it can progress the story. With usage of the elemental rods (particularly Fire Rod on nearby grass) for free stuns and Impa's overpowered clones, it'll be way faster to beat the stage than doing the intended activating idle ones to shoot it (on low difficulties, anyway). Speedrunners have done this since day 1. I even remember insisting on beating the guardian myself in the demo, before the point I was expected to unlock Zelda.

[@robert.7230]

Same here. I used link because of perfect parrying the beam.

[@cryoverspilledmilk4546]

Imagine if devs put in specific lines of code for if this stuff happened. Like if they had the bosses speak specific things to the player if they were defeated.

[@HyperKadaj]

Some games actually had the devs do exactly that. Tales of Destiny (PS1 version) had a hopeless boss fight in Leon Magnus. You can't beat him since his stats are OP for that part of the game. but it is possible to defeat him. Doing so nets you a scene of Rutee mocking him followed by Stahn, Rutee, and Mary taking their place as an infamous group of lens hunters. It's also a non-standard game over. The fight against Squall (Leon) Leonheart in KH1 is supposed to be hopeless, but you can beat him. If you do, you get a neat item later on, though the scene after the fight is more or less the same. Heishin in YuGiOh Forbidden Memories is also unwinnable. His deck is an endgame type with 3k beaters while you're still relying on small fusions of 2000-2100 ATK. He can be beaten, however, but he just rematches you again and again and again until you finally lose to him. He has a quote for when you best him then: "Not bad, boy. But you're wrong if you think I'm beaten!"

[@djgaming5107]

Devil may cry five did this

[@marioman1242]

There is a kind of similar case in Terraria where there is the an enemy called the Dungeon Guardian that is designed to always kill the player if they try to enter the dungeon without beating the early game boss Skeletron. This Dungeon Guardian enemy has 9999 health and 9999 defense which effectively makes any and all attacks deal 1 damage, and just for good measure the boss does 1000 damage which _usually_ kills you in one hit. This enemy moves insanely fast and is always locked on to the player no matter where they go. If you manage to survive and beat it though, you are rewarded with an exclusive pet that isn't available anywhere else in the game.

[@tilsspunbytails7790]

@@HyperKadaj regarding kh, there's also cloud. He's meant to be hopeless, but If you beat him a slightly different cutscene plays with the two and a half pints celebrating

[@RupeeClock]

When I played Age of Calamity, I actually beat the Guardian mission by defeating it in battle, rather than doing the mission objectives. It's doable on your first playthrough without overpowering your characters. The Ridley intro fight takes 100 hits from any weapon, or ends when Samus' energy drops below 30. It's a bit similar to how the Blind fight in Link to the Past requires 9 hits from any effective weapon, instead of respecting weapon damage values. Your fighter's sword is as effective as the golden sword, ignoring the shorter length.

[@thenitpickchannel9993]

I still think that Ridley's entrance into his first boss fight is still one of the coolest transitions into a boss fight.

[@ThoraxSB]

For the Heavy Lobster fight you can legitimately defeat him without changing anything in the game. All you do is as soon as you start the first area before the boss fight just let kirby be defeated, once you respawn you gain access to a new area where if you head left and fly up you'll see a wheelie enemy chilling on a cliff. Eat it for the ability and you can defeat Heavy Lobster by hugging the right side of the screen while spinning. Nothing would happen as the video said but it was an easter egg I would always do as a child when replaying the game.

[@RondoOfBloodX]

It would’ve been kind of cool if there was a secret boss you could fight later on if you managed to defeat Heavy Lobster the first time. Also how am I STILL learning new things about SM to this day? I had no idea that you could destroy Crocomires tongue. BTW Ridley CAN sort of be defeated. If you shoot him 100 times he’ll drop the Baby Metroid but then quickly pick it back up and flee. Also Ridley in that fight is designed to take 1 damage from ANYTHING you hit him with (yes even the Hyper Beam) so you still would’ve needed 100 Super Missles to win.

[@justinmillard8196]

Ha I’m the opposite. I knew about the Crocomire tongue thing, but I didn’t know about the hundred hits Ridley scripted sequence. I figured they programmed something if you hurt Ridley enough, but I didn’t know what. Thank you.

[@ilikeminecraft1232]

[@dazcarrr]

Considering that heavy lobster has its parts blasted off the ship anyway when the engines ignite, it's safe to assume it was destroyed anyway and they just had a second one. Or repaired it, which means they could have repaired the defeated one.

[@NFITC1]

I did the Ridley thing in a few no-damage speedrun attempts. I think the thing being showcased here is the lack of HP Ridley seems subject to. It has to be 100 hits. From anything. The Crocomire thing was someone being really curious. In the data it is separate from the Crocomire body and has 65535 HP or something crazy like that. The body is pushed back by damaging the tongue and falls in the lava when it's fully on the bridge. If the tongue is completely defeated the body just goes back into the lava. If played right you CAN defeat it without powerbombs, it just takes forever as even a charged ice-wave-plasma beam does 450 dmg. Power bombs are way faster since they ignore the body's "protection".

[@gregorymirabella1423]

heavy lobster gets destroyed automatically anyway.

[@austinwilburn1772]

I would love to see more of this kind of thing. I’ve always wondered what would happen if you were able to do this. Like in Pokémon, the fights that are “played” by the computer are more like a stage and not a real battle but weird things can still happen. 2 examples, when starting a game it’s possible in Ruby and Sapphire, it’s possible for the dog Pokémon attacking the Professor to be shiny or in Red/Blue the old drunk man blocking the road near the start can fail to catch the Weedle.

[@LordZero666]

That happened to me more than once. The guy failing go catch the pokemon. And he has a special dialogue for that. It says something like "Ohh, i missed it, well, anyways that's the general idea of how's is done. It's easier if you weaken the pokemon first" or something to that effect.

Kinda sad that Golden Sun wasn't in here. Played it a ton as a kid, and it's always the first game I think of in regards to "early unwinnable fights."

[@ShamanJeeves]

Correct! By using one of the gitched beams, I think it's the Space-time beam, but I'm not a SM glitch expert, you can pretty easily do this fight with all collectible items maxed except for Missiles, which the opening cutscenes will cause to be deleted from your inventory. While the extra weapons won't help, the extra life can help an inexperienced player survive long enough to "beat" Ridley. I awlays aim for beating Ridley at the start of my personal challenge speedruns, despite losing time I could save by just taking damage quickly. Ditto for saving the animals and filing in every square of the map. Since I'm nowhere near competitive levels of skill, I prefer taking the time losses in exchange for "true" 100% completion.

Funny thing about Heavy Lobster's first encounter, in the remake for Super Star, Super Star Ultra. *YOU CAN DEFEAT HEAVY LOBSTER AS META KNIGHT!* It's pretty much an inverted version of the original script where after some a few seconds have passed the Meta-Knights activate the engine and the thrusters on the back cause Kirby, his helper and Heavy Lobster to go flying away. Doesn't matter how long you take to defeat Heavy Lobster during Meta Knightmare Ultra, the game will not progress *until Heavy Lobster is defeated.* Which is a bit ironic given the fact Meta Knightmare Ultra is a game mode where you need to basically speedrun through the main games (Minus Gourmet Race for obvious reasons) with the quickest time possible in each game.

Killing the Black Knight when he steps out of his house in Path of Radiance will actually punish you for winning.

[@paperluigi6132]

Thanks to multiplayer and some very careful gameplay, I actually managed to beat the game by using the starting Rattata to deal the final blow.

For the Guardian in AoC, you can just beat it normally. It takes a while (like 25 minutes), but it’s faster than doing the normal mission, and funnier.

[@VinnyValentine08]

Yes!!

[@dary3]

Yeah lmao, I did that in the demo

[@alwaystired2452]

It takes like 3-5 minutes if you're over leveled lmao

[@mr.wideman2006]

I managed to beat it first try with link and the soldiers sword, was pretty easy tbh

@@alwaystired2452 but if you aren’t and you just started the game, it’s true. If you go back to it (which, why), then yes it takes objectively shorter.

Bowser crashing the game is the funniest part of this

[@ThundagaT2]

I could already tell that defeating Heavy Lobster early wouldnt do anything since the boss that Kirby fights later isnt even the same Heavy Lobster. Since you can clearly see it fall to pieces at the same moment Kirby is blown off the ship even if you dont kill it, indicating that they destroyed their own attack robot in the process. The one you fight later is just another one.

[@GeorgeDCowley]

Or that you beat it in canon.

It’s actually possible to fight the guardian without overleveling. I tried it once because I didn’t care about the mission, and died like 3/4 of the way there. It hurt

[@applesauce1531]

Yeah I didn’t read what I had to do and kicked it’s ass on the 3rd try

Same, I killed it in the demo without doing the main mission. Took me 10 minutes I think.

Its not that hard considering you don't have to worry about your shield breaking if you're late with the parries. Botw already nearly broke me of parrying too early... thats what I think before practicing again at the forgotten temple.

Fun fact: the guardian in AoC is more the possible to kill in your first playthrough. I know this because I sat there for about half an hour just reflecting beams and slapping him around between attacks. I knew the game would have me run away but since I saw I was doing damage I thought “why not”

[@ShosuCeladon]

Defeats the Legendary Pokémon. Loses the fight anyways!

[@XEqualsPenguin]

Clicked on this hoping Pokemon Rumble would be included. Glad it was! I've been curious about that fight. Bummer it's still unwinnable though

[@justintime2461]

If you do everything correctly in the fight, it's actually winnable. Just have the weaker Pokemon get softened up by the stronger ones, and then swoop in and steal the kills to gain clocks to boost your timer. Then you just gotta avoid attacks and stunlock the stronger Pokemon against the walls of the arena.

In Golden Sun, you battle the main antagonists Saturos and Menardi at the beginning of the game. It's pretty much impossible to win the battle since you are super weak and they have endgame stats. But if you use cheat codes in order to give your party infinite HP and max attack, you CAN win the battle. However, nothing will change: the next cutscene will be you near dead on the floor and Saturos and Menardi leaving like usual.

[@IvanFranco120]

Yeah, its the 3 Shroobs at the begining of the game. In Hollijolli Village. 😅

[@Kohchu]

You can beat the King Statue in Mother 3 easily, without cheats or anything. A nearby Pigmask sells gimmick items, one of them is called the "New Years Eve Bomb" which reduces an enemy's HP to single digits but has a high chance of doing nothing. And the King Statue is not only not immune to it, but the bomb is programmed to always work on him. So yes, you can just use it on him to drop him to 1 hp, and kill him easily. Sadly, nothing happens for defeating him, other then the statue disappearing for the rest of the game, and you getting a decent chunk of EXP.

You can technically "beat" Ridley. He'll drop the metroid container, grab it again, and then flee just like before. Perhaps in that fight, it counts his damage as one hit per projectile, which is why fifty super missles wansnt enough

I believe he is "defeated" after taking 100 hits, regardless of what he is hit with. You just have to not let your health go below 30

Pokemon Rumble’s sequel, Pokemon Rumble Blast for 3DS, also has a boss fight that is meant to be hopeless but might be winnable. At the end of Chapter 3, Cobalion is fought in a 3-on-1 battle, but all of his attacks deal massive damage/instantly KO and are near-impossible to avoid. He does, however, take normal amounts of damage. It may be possible to win, even without cheats, with the right Pokemon.

So what I retained is: Paper Bowser is a godly powerhouse who can only die to cheats. Heavy Lobster is... Weak, but easily rebuilt. The Guardian is the bulkiest thing to roam Hyrule. King Statue IS ONE HELL OF A CRAFTSMANSHIP GAWD DAMN. The Legendary heroes are invincible to everything except ice (Just like me in a normal play through) Crocomire is phet. The phetest of them all. But not invincible. Ridley needs to take a chill pill, jeez. Too OP. Needs nerf. and the Battle Royale should inspire all participants who want glory, because lets be honest that Ratata would never make it... it's by design. I sure learned a lot!

[@sollmoll]

Ridley actually has an interaction for when you hit him 100 times before going down to 30 at the start of super Metroid. So that is kinda accounted for
