That One Boss is, well, that one boss that falls victim to poor playtesting or was thrown in by especially cruel developers. You're leveling up normally, plowing through every battle, until you reach this particular battle and suddenly meet a nasty road block. Eventually, you RageQuit, or you [[GuideDangIt go on the Internet looking for assistance]]. In the event that you stop by the game's message board, lo and behold, everyone else is having the exact same problem, with entire topics asking "how do I beat That One Boss?". Walkthroughs usually list the worst offenders as "[[TheDreaded the hardest boss in the game]]", and eventually, such a beast receives a reputation for being [[NintendoHard just that freaking hard]]. In-universe lampshades of this trope would often have the boss claim to be DefiantToTheEnd. A few of them [[BestBossEver may be awesome]], but that still doesn't mean you won't be chewing on the controller in frustration despite it.

* {{Superboss}}es are completely banned from being That One Boss, because they are intentionally overpowered and far from mandatory to fight.

* {{Superboss}}es are completely banned from being That One Boss, because they are intentionally overpowered overpowered, so it would be redundant to list them, and far from mandatory to fight.
