Recurring boss that you need to find the weakness of via trial and error, can be killed for super nice loot or turned into a minion?
Taunts you and acts as a personal nemesis with a generated personality and looks?

Unironically it was likely done too many times before someone thought of patenting it.
Did that stop Nintendo lately?
Dragon ball fighting games did the little cloud thing
How does that work?
