Bosses, oftentimes phrasally referred to as boss NPCs, are transcendent battle NPCs that can be challenged by qualifying players for an assortment of high-end rewards and feature-unlockings.

Since bosses constitute the strongest NPC-deployed lineups in the game—having maximal stats attainable by players—they are considered the fulcrum of the PvE (player versus environment) aspect in Pokémon Revolution Online.

As of December 2018, scripters began to revamp already existing bosses. The reworked bosses include changes to their team lineup, rewards, player requirements, and Pokémon' effort values and levels. The aforementioned bosses now have three difficulty levels for the player to choose from.

Boss NPCs are identifiable by their distinctively red- or purple-colored names on the overworld, while those with red names are 'normal' bosses and those with purple names are 'superbosses' which are considered to be much more difficult. Some bosses might not be visible to the players until their prerequisites have been satisfied.

Boss-NPC characters are predominantly modeled after either Gym Leaders, staff members, or plot characters.

You may only challenge 20 repeatable bosses per week.

Requirements

The main requirement is to be champion of the region the boss stays on. The scale of the rewards is controlled by three different difficulty grades - Easy, Medium and hard. Some bosses also have a hour requirement, but only if they are connected with special events such like catching a legendary Pokémon.

Species Clause

When challenging a boss on Medium or Hard mode, players are not allowed to use more than one of the same Pokémon on their team. They must be different species/have different national dex numbers. For example, you cannot have more than one Sharpedo in your lineup to challenge a boss.

Rewards

Bosses have rewards depending on the difficulty level you beat them. As harder the difficulty as more valuable is the reward normally. The exact reward is random generated based on a list of possible rewards and contains at least a money reward. There are three difficulty level: Easy, Medium and Hard. For extra rewards, the Medium and Hard level have a three-time win streak.

Tier 1: A random amount of common items which depends on the boss, like Focus Sashes, Weakness Policyies, Air Balloons,Lum Berries or Sitrus Berries.

Tier 2: A random amount of more valuable items, mixed with some high valuable rewards depending on the boss, like PP Up's, Rare Candy's, Small Train Ticket or Corphish.

Tier 3: Rare Pokémon depending on the boss, like Gible, Dratini, Bunnelby or Scyther.

Mode	Tier chances			Pokémoney rewarded	PvE Coins rewarded
Mode	1	2	3	Pokémoney rewarded	PvE Coins rewarded
Easy	85%	10%	5%	5,000-10,000	None
Medium	80%	10%	10%	12,000-30,000	3
Hard	60%	25%	15%	20,000-40,000	5

Once a you have beat a boss three times in a row, you can choose one extra reward out of a Pokémon prizeset of four; they vary among bosses. The rewardable Pokémon on the hard mode are considered as slightly more valuable than those you may get on the Medium mode.

Miscellaneous

Many bosses are also multifunctional in the sense that they may serve as vendors or as move tutors. In these cases, they typically will require being battled at least one time before their commercial services are accessible; this entails that the requirements are satisfied, or they may not have any accessibly serviceable feature.

Cooldown time

Amount

Each account is limited to 20 rechallengeable bosses every week; the timer on this is a global cooldown that resets every Monday at 00:00 (midnight) GMT+0.

Most bosses also have an individual timer are rechallengeable after 12 days; the main exceptions are quest-compulsory bosses, which either cool down after 2 hours or are not rechallengeable at all, as the quest has progressed.

Cooldown-timers

The cooldown-checker performing a confirmatory check on Brock's status.

The cooldown times for your bosses can be checked by speaking to the cooldown-checker in Celadon Office 2F, Goldenrod City House 1, Slateport City House 1, or Canalave City House 1; they will let you know whether or not they are ready.

If you want the exact time left remaining on the cooldown of a boss, you can interact with the boss in question; they will say how much time is remaining before they are rechallengeable when asked.

If you are member in the Official PRO Discord you can also use the command ^cooldown boss "Player Name" server to get a list of Bosses and their cooldowns.

Boss rework 2019

The boss rework was issued to improve the boss NPC's in general. All bosses are coded in Python now and not in Xanascript anymore, which gave new opportunities. One of the biggest benefits is, that the Python script sees when if the server crashed in order to not count a lose in case the player fought against the boss while the server crashed. In such a case, the player can simply re-fight the boss.

Bosses now are a challenge for players on any experience level who do enjoy doing bosses. There are three difficulty level every not story related boss has, which ensures that bosses are challengeable for newer players and also be a challenge for those who have a high Pokémon knowledge. Boss teams are decisively reworked and only contain level 100 Pokémon. EVs and hold items do vary among other things - also depending on the difficulty level. Boss Pokémon are not restricted to only using one move when holding a choice item.

Easy: bosses have no EVs and no hold items; as well as a weakened moveset. Consecutive win rewards are also not available.
Medium: bosses have 252 EVs in each stat and hold items.
Hard: bosses have 31 IVs 400 EVs in each stat and hold items. Furthermore, the player is not allowed to use in-battle items such as Revives. Additionally, On Hard difficulty some of the Boss's Pokémon will have more than 4 moves. However 4 moves will be randomly generated for the battle.

Clauses

Although boss battles are mostly ruleless, there are several provisos to help regulate the level of difficulty. For such battles, players are prohibited from using:

More than one Pokémon of the same species
Zacian or Zamazenta
Entrainment
Smeargle

+You may only challenge 20 repeatable bosses per week.
 ==Requirements==
-Given their enviable rewards and stature as cream-of-the-crop end-game content, they typically will impose lofty requirements in order to be challengable.
-While requirements will boss-specifically vary, there are many commonalities and baselines that are shared among them; the more prevalent ones include 200-plus hours of playtime and six level-100 on-hand Pokémon.
+The main requirement is to be champion of the region the boss stays on. The scale of the rewards is controlled by three different difficulty grades - Easy, Medium and hard. Some bosses also have a hour requirement, but only if they are connected with special events such like catching a legendary Pokémon.
+====Species Clause====
+When challenging a boss on Medium or Hard mode, players are not allowed to use more than one of the same Pokémon on their team. They must be different species/have different national dex numbers. For example, you cannot have more than one [[Sharpedo]] in your lineup to challenge a boss.
-==Rewards==
+====Rewards====
-Some boss NPCs are compulsory in order to unlock essential features or progressional thresholds; for example, [[Youngster Joey (boss)|Youngster Joey]] must be defeated in order to advance to [[Hoenn]], since he will occlude the transregional porter thereto until he is defeated. For the most part, however, boss NPCs are optional to battle but tremendously rewardful for those who defeat them, as they offer Pokémon, items and other commodities that might not be as handily obtainable, otherwise.
+Bosses have rewards depending on the difficulty level you beat them. As harder the difficulty as more valuable is the reward normally. The exact reward is random generated based on a list of possible rewards and contains at least a money reward. There are three difficulty level: '''Easy''', '''Medium''' and '''Hard'''.
+For extra rewards, the Medium and Hard level have a three-time win streak.
-===Incremental thresholds===
-While prizesets will boss-specifically vary, most of them follow the same paradigm of reward-distrubiting. Most offer initially randomized prizes—typically enviable Pokémon or items at commensurately varying odds—until the incremental thresholds are met; typically after three-consecutive wins against the boss, they will allow you to select the prize, sometimes augmenting the selectable prizes to extra prizes that might not be rewardable, otherwise.
+'''Tier 1''': A random amount of common items which depends on the boss, like [[Focus Sash|Focus Sashes]], [[Weakness Policy|Weakness Policyies]], [[Air Balloon|Air Balloons]],[[Lum Berry|Lum Berries]] or [[Sitrus Berry|Sitrus Berries]].
-The consecution of battles will reset either upon losing to the boss or after the third-consecutive win. Bosses typically will remind you what streak you are on after defeating them.
+'''Tier 2''': A random amount of more valuable items, mixed with some high valuable rewards depending on the boss, like [[PP Up|PP Up's]], [[Rare Candy|Rare Candy's]], [[Train Ticket|Small Train Ticket]] or [[Corphish]].
-===Pokémon===
+'''Tier 3''': Rare Pokémon depending on the boss, like [[Gible]], [[Dratini]], [[Bunnelby]] or [[Scyther]].
-Many bosses will reward Pokémon that might either be unhuntable or [[List of Pokémon by Rarity Tier|ultra-rare]], otherwise.
-Boss-rewarded Pokémon may also have potential [[Pokémon Counterparts#Shiny Pokémon|shiny counterparts]], but most stipulate that the incremental thresholds must be met before the shiny chance is possible.

 ===Amount===

-[[Naero_(boss)|Naero]] is another anomaly, wherein the boss' cooldown time will be halved to six days if battled with active [[membership]] status at the juncture the battle was initiated.

+If you are member in the [[Discord_chat|Official PRO Discord]] you can also use the command ''^cooldown boss "Player Name" server'' to get a list of Bosses and their cooldowns.
+==Boss rework 2019==
+The boss rework was issued to improve the boss NPC's in general. All bosses are coded in Python now and not in Xanascript anymore, which gave new opportunities. One of the biggest benefits is, that the Python script sees when if the server crashed in order to not count a lose in case the player fought against the boss while the server crashed. In such a case, the player can simply re-fight the boss.
+Bosses now are a challenge for players on any experience level who do enjoy doing bosses. There are three difficulty level every not story related boss has, which ensures that bosses are challengeable for newer players and also be a challenge for those who have a high Pokémon knowledge. Boss teams are decisively reworked and only contain level 100 Pokémon. [[EVs]] and hold items do vary among other things - also depending on the difficulty level. '''Boss Pokémon are not restricted to only using one move when holding a choice item'''.
+* Easy: bosses have no EVs and no hold items; as well as a weakened moveset. Consecutive win rewards are also not available.
+* Medium: bosses have 252 EVs in each stat and hold items.
+* Hard: bosses have 31 [[IVs]] 400 EVs in each stat and hold items. Furthermore, the player is not allowed to use in-battle items such as [[Revive]]s. Additionally, On '''Hard difficulty''' some of the Boss's Pokémon will have more than 4 moves. However 4 moves will be randomly generated for the battle.
-If you seek a more quantitative answer on the remaining cooldown time, you can interact with the boss in question; they will quantify how much time is remaining before they are rechallengable when asked.
