Occasionally, a defeated mini-boss or boss may return as a standard regular enemy at a later stage of the game (this is very common in RPGs as a standard enemy from later in the game makes a convenient early boss). This often stresses the use of a certain strategy or action, and the player learns how to use it well for later purposes as a result. This typically only applies to bosses or mini-bosses which are not key characters in the game's storyline. For example, in ''[[Metroid Prime]]'', the player encounters many [[Creatures in the Metroid Prime series#Baby Sheegoth|Baby Sheegoths]] before a boss battle against a [[Creatures in the Metroid Prime series#Sheegoth|fully grown one]] (in which special tactics are required to defeat it); upon revisiting the level at a later stage, adult Sheegoths are commonplace (however by this point of the game, the player has acquired more powerful weaponry, allowing him to defeat them like normal enemies.) Other mini-bosses include [[Birdo]], [[Ridley]] (although he gains normal boss status in later ''[[Metroid series|Metroid]]'' games), and [[Boom Boom (Super Mario Bros. 3)|Boom Boom]].
