The following table displays the level advantage that each type of boss Pokémon will have over the player's highest-level Pokémon.
| Name | Color | Levels Above |
|---|---|---|
| Uncommon | Green | 5 |
| Rare | Yellow | 10 |
| Legendary | Red | 20 |
| Ultimate | Orange | 40 |
For example, if the player's highest-level Pokémon is level 80, a rare (yellow label) boss Pokémon will be level 90. However, if the player's highest-level Pokémon is level 60, the same rare boss Pokémon will instead be level 70. The moveset of a wild boss Pokémon may change with each battle (if a player escapes from or is defeated by the boss Pokémon); however, growth, Natures, Abilities, and IVs will not change between encounters.
Types
There are two different types of boss Pokémon, each spawning in different ways.
Mega Evolved boss Pokémon
A Mega Evolved boss Pokémon will spawn approximately once every minute in the world if possible. The species of Mega Evolution is randomly selected from all existing Mega Evolutions that can spawn in the spawn location, and may spawn even in biomes where the base form of the Pokémon would not normally spawn. Mega Evolved boss Pokémon can only natural spawn as rare or legendary bosses, and legendary Mega Evolved boss Pokémon will always have their Shiny colorations. Rare bosses spawn 70% of the time, while legendary bosses spawn the remaining 30% of the time.
