Boss Pokémon
Boss Pokémon (more commonly known as bosses) are rare types of Pokémon, usually tougher and larger than normal Pokémon. The text that shows above them lacks a level and comes in four colors: green, blue, red, and yellow. This text can be seen from farther away than that of normal Pokémon. They are also tinted in the colour of their name. They cannot be captured.
Bosses scale to 5/10/20/40 levels above the highest level Pokémon in a player's party, depending on colour (Green/Blue/Red/Yellow). For example, a boss Pokémon fought with level 80 Pokémon will be level 90, while the same boss Pokémon fought with level 85 Pokémon will be level 95. The rarity of boss Pokémon scales according to their difficulty.
The moveset of a wild boss Pokémon will change with each battle; however, growth, nature, and IVs will not.
Boss Pokémon can be spawned with /pokespawn <pokemon> boss<#>, e.g. /pokespawn lapras boss4 for a yellow boss Lapras.
