    Now do Top 10 Regular Enemies Upgraded To Bosses. Here are some examples:
    *Big Green Chu Chu - The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap
    *Giant Goomba - New Super Mario Bros.
    *Max Slimer - Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
    *Gnawty - Donkey Kong Country
    -Than again, all the bosses in DKC (aside from K. Rool himself) are just larger enemies in the first place.
    *Metall Daddy - Mega Man 4

    In SOTN, you can fight Slogra and Gaibon even earlier before you actually have to fight them. Once you enter the Alchemy Laboratory, immediately leave and return to the room where Death took all of your equipment, you can fight them there. However after dealing enough damage Gaibon will pick up Slogra and they will fly away. You don't gain anything from the fight but it can be good practice for the real deal if you play the game for the first time.

    Castlevania loves doing this. Lose to the Belmont too much and Lord Dracula will strip you of your boss status and declare you a 'NORMAL-ASS ENEMY!'. Just ask Werewolf, Minotaur, Karasuman, Flying Armor, or even Frankenstein's Monster aka The Creature.

    Heavy Shank, Dark Blade knights from Destiny and Destiny 2. Heavy Shank and Dark Blade Knight appeared as a bosses in the Fallen S.A.B.E.R. and The Dark Blade strikes in Destiny 1. They now appear as regular enemies, though the Dark blades are mini bosses still, but not the full potential knights.
    This is not counting the joke of a dark blade that is Kelgorath. its a long story.
