Boss: Bro Scraggy AKA the Secret Sensei himself

Location: Unique arena, preferably flat to keep it simple. Can be fought as soon as you complete his quests and earnt his respect.

Power Level: Level 100, Fighting Brotocol engaged. Expect him to be like one of those hidden bosses in games, which is actually more powerful than the final boss.

The fight:

Bro is fast. Very fast. He flashsteps (pretty much teleports) to random points in the arena, leaving shadowy afterimages behind. Occasionally, he will appear next to you and attack with Aerial Ace/Night Slash/Slash/Metal Claw/Dragon Claw/Shadow Claw, using his katana (yes he has a katana), and then continue moving around. He will also occasionally stop to charge up a focus blast and throw it at you. This is your chance to hit him. He will also sometimes psyche you out, by appearing a short distance near you and then pulling a Counter.

After a sufficient amount of damage, he adds more moves to his arsenal and cuts down the intervals between flashsteps. He will now occasionally backflip up into the sky, fire a barrage of Air Slashes down, and then dash like a meteor towards you, creating a small AoE earthquake.

After he has lost half of his health, he starts to mix it up even more. He will fire air slashes while on the ground. He will also go so fast that it appears as if multiple Bro's were presents. Focus blast is exchanged for the faster and homing Aura Sphere, which will often be spammed while teleporting around.

With only a quarter left, the battle becomes extremely hectic. Bro's will appear everywhere, attacking, vanishing, and appearing somewhere else again. He will also use some very powerful moves, like Spacial Rend and Hyper Beam. At 10%, he will use his trumph card is Sword Dance, which he uses not as a buff but as a literal sword dance. Multiple Bro's will come and go, continuously slashing at you. Every attack you fire off will probably hit, but his own attacks are very difficult to avoid as he is literally everywhere simultaneously.

Defeating him grants you access to a pair of his Bro Shades. No idea what they will do, maybe just bragging rights.
