Regarding if you should be thinking about boss battles this early: You probably should be. Even if you lack a story, having distinct elements like a boss battle can jumpstart the writing process as you build the story around them. The story should naturally flow towards a boss battle anyway after all, they are epic tests of skill and preparing the player for them takes time which will inform other gameplay and story elements. Given how many unique designs you have so far I might even say that you may have too few bosses designed.

I've heard numerous times that when creating something like a game or story, its best to figure out the end first then develop everything that would lead to that. So designing the boss early isn't bad. It gives you a possible end point for your game's story to build towards.

You mentioned how gym leaders should emphasize different strategies, and that is a big reason why I like the fangame Pokémon Insurgence. The gym leaders aren’t based around a single type, but rather a theme. The first gym leader is a sun team, the 5th gym leader is an electric steel specialist, but makes heavy use of the air balloon, the seventh gym leader is a rain team, and the elite four use Baton Pass, Sandstorm, Hail, and Trick Room respectively. The leaders cover their weaknesses well, and demonstrates the potential of certain moves and abilities, something I wish mainline Pokémon did.

speaking from making my own novel, it is extremely important to create your bosses early on. The hard part is filling in the details in between major events/boss battles for the antagonist/group of main characters.

One thing I wish that pokemon had done when it still had mega evolutions was instead of having mega stones you just buy or find, most of the mega stones could be hidden behind boss battles, where you have to fight a mega evolved pokemon on its turf. There could probably be neat influences in fights like permanently weathers, more than 4 moves, or even using the hoard mechanic of gen 6 where you would have to fight the mega and 4 other mons at once

I think having 1 or 2 gyms early on with no gimmick is enough, then future gyms should have some sort of challenge to overcome that makes the battle more exciting. If the teams of bosses aren’t optimized, there needs to be some sort of added layer to contend with for the player. For example, maybe a grass type gym leader’s arena is constantly in the rain. On top of that, the player should either have to contend with a full team past the 3rd gym or be forced to pick the same number of mons as the leader to bring to a battle. Part of the ease in Pokémon games is the fact that the only battle where you have to face 6 Pokémon in a row is the champion battle- and I think some of the newer ones don’t even have that! If the fear is that players will become disheartened because a battle is too hard (and yes there is truth to that because many kids these days have little to no drive to overcome challenges) then maybe this can be the legacy of Pokémon: to show that challenges should be overcome and not ignored.

As someone who has been playing Pokémon for almost 20 years. Scarlet and Violet blindsided me with some of their insane boss fights. Sure, I still steam rolled a good majority of this game because of my knowledge of Pokémon and being super over leveled. But when a strategy you know works and could’ve prevented Runs away from you like an out-of-control train you eventually party wipe… I don’t even remember the last time I party wiped in a Pokémon game it was so frustrating, but also Innoway kind of humbling, knowing that these games still can challenge even a veteran. For the record it was the poison team star base leader. Also, the climax battle in the post game against all the paradox Pokémon, a whole team of paradox. Pokémon with competent, move sets and strategies, that almost party white me as well.

Damn i love that feeling when i open youtube on a friday and find a nortist video in the homepage

Very well written and edited video my man! Thanks for sharing :)

One particular aspect of Totems that I really liked is that, especially in Ultra Sun and Moon, the reinforcements that Totems would summon all had movesets designed specifically to make your life harder. Some examples include: - Masquerain in the Araquanid battle using Stun Spore to paralyse your Pokémon whilst using Scary Face and its Intimidate ability to lower your stats. - Skarmory in the Togedemaru Trial using Stealth Rock to make switching your Pokémon risky, Torment to force you to use different moves, and Tailwind to increase the Totem’s speed (Masquerain can also use this move) - Comfey in the Lurantis Trial use Sunny Day to activate the Totem’s Leaf Guard ability, and uses Floral Healing and Flower Shield to heal it and increase its defence. - Scizor in the Kommo-o trial uses Light Screen to make the Totem resistant to special attacks, whilst possessing a powerful Bullet Punch to threaten the normally Super Effective Fairy types. All of these Pokemon, as well as the ones I haven’t mentioned, all stand enough of a threat to where you can’t just ignore them and take them out after the Totem is down. You actively have to consider whether it’s more advantageous to attack the Totem or the reinforcement, and that’s what makes them so challenging.

Some of the titans were actually challenging boss fights if you fought them while substantially underleveled like I did. I only managed to beat dondozo without coming back later in the game by specifically tracking down a sleep powder compound eyes vivillon to keep it from outputting too much damage

Fascinating insights and awesome mons! Great vid

Another thing about the 2v1s in island trials is that they have actual strategy to which Pokémon they summon. For example, lurantis summons castform to use sunny day, making its solar blade have a 1 turn cast. Kommo-o summons a scizor to cover its fairy and psychic weaknesses.

I'm not that into pokemon like I was years ago, but your dedication to your project won me over, good luck!

Working on the boss battle this early means you can work them into the plot more efficiently! When you get around to the game I hope it gets a really cool boss!

I'm working on my own head cannon region and making up some pokemon, the region is called Ancreo and its heavily influenced by archeology and paleontologist, so there is a heavy influences on ancient creatures, civilization, or artifacts in all my creatures

An interesting (but maybe broken) idea would have been to make it have three Mega evolutions, each with extreme strengths and weaknesses, with them appearing as a white dwarf, a neutron star or a black hole.

How you want to see gym leaders is pretty much how Cassette Beasts handled their version of gym leaders. Trying different mon games can help give you ideas. Also, recently a new channel called the Golden Owl just started and made a video about how Onix is actually designed as a boss pokemon. Unfortunately, a boss rarely translates into competitive play well.

Great analysis and wonderfully cute design! Definitely adding Gianaut to my team!

I’m surprised you didn’t mention gen 9 Team Star Battles. Not only are the in the same game as Titans, but they are also far more interesting, and a bit harder because the leader is has a normal team except with a buffed up final mon.

I love how your idea for a boss is the literal flaming sun. That's one hell of an object Mon.

Discovered your channel last night, honestly surprised you haven't reached 100k yet.

I think a main reason stuff like Miltank was memorable and difficult was because our options were limited, like our only options really were the female Machop trade (even then still a chance to lose), getting lucky in some way (ie a gastly?) or you just are overlevel, which in Johto is a chore.. so sometimes the game limiting you is all you need.. but modern games giving you so many options, sure is great for team building but just makes the fights way more weighted in our favor, like I have a full team of 6 with a possible evolved starter all before the first gym, I am not gonna struggle since I possibly already have the backbone of what is gonna sweep *the entire* game with few exceptions.. Like Iono could be difficult but again.. I have a full team of 6 and probably took minimal damage from rest of her team... so she still has to deal with 5-6 mons all decently leveled whittling her down One thing I want is what happened in the anime.. limiting how many we can bring, like imagine them telling you "hey bring only 2 mons" and now you can't rely on 2v6s in your favor Also the totems and just.. giving a random legendary busted stats still feels not fully right since sometimes it's just "welp there goes my whole team since I'm straight up at a disadvantage" like some fights are easier than others don't get me wrong but just in a vacuum a fight where my single mon is fighting a something designed to fight a team of 6.. without a balance for the 6 to not be OHKO'd anyways.. just means I am sending out my team one at a time to get sent back just to be told to train.. when I already figured that out after my bulkiest mon got OHKO'd or whatever The titan Pokemon do get boosts in their second round.. but since SV bad at giving you any info on order of stuff (except some blurbs of text only for Katy and Brassius I think) you could wind up fighting an uphill battle.. or streamrolling Klawf twice because you explored a bit on the opposite half of Paldea for a bit and are now leagues above its unseen level (which apparently is 16 I think?)

Honestly, gen 9 has so much content when it comes to the bosses. the Turo/Suda fight, as well as Team Star. Both very memorable aspects of the games. Team Star especially with them all using the same final mon, but each one still having something unique.

Don't know if the evolution benchmark for gianaut was a placeholder or not, but I think you should make it an item, just so you can make sure overlevelling wouldn't be an issue with how strong they are, assuming there isn't something else planned for them.

Fantastic video! I always enjoy watching these, as it feels almost like an analysis of Pokémon in addition to showcasing your own designs. Also something I thought about when I saw Gianaut: maybe you could give it an ability similar to Aftermath, where it does damage to the enemy present when it faints, similar to a red giant going supernova?

I like the concept of your star pokémon

i feel like such a fun idea would be a boss battle with an evolved form of your starter that you arent able to catch, and then defeating it drops an item needed to evolve yours into that form

I like that for some gym leaders they plan around a commonly used type for the gym, usually a type that can be found relatively close by. It makes the type exclusivity seem more like a tactical ploy rather than a disadvantage. I also love when gyms deviate from the norm to create unique matches. My favorite in recent times is Raihan and his doubles weather team. You encounter weather throughout the game and have likely battled in double battles, but the gyms have exclusively had only their type of Pokemon and been a single battle. Raihan shakes it up with a doubles match utilizing weather and Pokemon that aren't dragon type that fill half of his team. It teaches you that Pokemon battles can become much more complex than you would expect, and ends the match with a showcase of the dynamax mechanic within a doubles battle. It's a learning experience for every type of player, new and old, with a ton of mechanics thrown out at you to keep track of. It sucks that his "Elite Four" match was limited to a singles fight, making his weather team less effective (plus the juggling of different weathers makes the whole team slightly weaker overall), but it's still a great example gym that I hope Game Freak looks to when making more gyms. I and many others know the type matchups, so having later gyms introduce more mechanics to learn or watch for would making things more interesting while still teaching players.

I adore your 'mon designs

The first penultimate boss battle I really remember fighting in Pokémon was Necrozma’s ultimate form in ultra moon. Sure I had played and completed the original Pokémon moon. But necrozma’s final form and just fighting him always stuck with me. I still consider him one of the most difficult and intimidating boss battles in the entire main line series.

Your rendition of a star Pokémon is very nice, but I feel it’s also very limited, it should be a 4 stage evolution with multiple final evolutions. A black hole, a white dwarf and a pulsar. It’d make it perfect

8:00 I could say that some Wild Encounters with the Arena Trap ability like Wobofet and Dugtrio are considered as mini bosses offull-fledged bosses for a nuzlocke challenger for example. These mons presenttreats to many and you could have acknowledge them.

Now how they make boss fights is much more significant

What a beautiful design.

Another little example of gym leaders teaching people of new features is Roark from diamond/pearl. Gen 4 introduced stealth rock, a hazard move that is pivotal to competitive Pokémon. The developers clearly knew it was gonna be big as they had 2/3 of his Pokémon have it to ensure everyone knew what it was before the competitive format came

What was the music playing when Nortist was talking about fights like Ultra Necrozma and Eternatus? also great video as usual, Nortist.

I always imagined that a gym leader could use battle frontier methods. Putting all pokemon at level 50, even if you go in there first it pulls your levels up. Or if you go in last, levels might get pushed down. And then he could use the terrain or obstacle wheel. After one KO, the wheel is spun and sets a random weather. Next up, random terrain, then suddenly anything on the field is poisoned, including the types that can't be poisoned.
