The villain (or the villain's servant) grows to an enormous size for the very definitely Final Battle. No, he doesn't go and get mutated into a terrifying One-Winged Angel form (usually), but simply becomes an absolutely huge version of himself, pretty much the attack of the 50-foot villain. Usually done as a last resort when the villain has nothing left to lose, quite literally making this the Godzilla Threshold. In some cases, this goes with a villain comeback after an assumed death by dangerous substance or fall, or getting hit with a bunch of energy beams and "exploding". There is also a pretty good chance the villain's castle or base will be nearly, if not completely destroyed when the villain does this and in certain funny usages of this, the villain or Monster of the Week will realize the unfortunate consequences of both the enormous size and the misfortune of standing on a piece of flooring that's by far too weak to support him. And finally, no matter how powerful or gigantic this villain becomes, never rule out the Bishōnen Line, in which this monster will suddenly revert to a more humanoid appearance as a result of gaining even more power. Compare Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever, Miracle-Gro Monster, One-Winged Angel, Rent-a-Zilla, Sizeshifter and Turns Red. Please try to only list examples where the villain's increase in size is the only change to his appearance, since most One-Winged Angel forms by definition are usually larger than the original character. Not a Double Entendre. Usually. |

A monster unit in Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten can fuse with another monster to increase its size by about three times, which grants them a multitude of benefits. In a boss example, Des-X does this through her own will for the second phase of her battle. Disgaea 5, has a few examples of its own: Usalia's "Prinnical Meteor" has her unfurl a ninja scroll before enlarging her Prinny mount to... about the size of the moon. Before flinging it back to earth and eating a plate of curry as she casually floats away to the view of the Prinny's impact. Red Magnus has this as his skillset (he can naturally change his body structure's dimensions, such as smashing foes with an enlarged arm), but his Overload skill is where this trope comes out to play— it increases his size and gives him a stat buff for several turns. Hilariously, he has a team-up skill with the aforementioned Usalia which involves enlarging both the Prinny Mount and himself to crazy proportions before smashing the planet with Usalia's hammer. There's also the Giant Killer Squad, which makes its assigned members giant for a few turns. However, the best example of this trope is one of the Professor's unique skills, which can enlarge several targets on command. |

Digimon: In the 13th episode of Digimon Adventure, Devimon grows to giant size, eating Ogremon to help himself do this. After beating up the first six Champions this way, he's killed when Angemon uses up all his energy to destroy him. Digimon Tamers: It's only shown once, but Ryo has a card that enables his partner to grow to a monstrous size, and it's stated that it's too much for anyone who's not a master Tamer to handle (in the original, it's called "King Device", and the "[chess piece here] Device" cards in general are too dangerous for amateurs; in the dub, it's given the simple and Meaningful Name of "Goliath"). The first arc of Digimon Data Squad had all their Mons Of The Week several times larger than what they would usually be, and sometimes they were even shown normal sized before growing. This indicated, of course, that there was a reason for this. Ironically, with all the parallels Savers had with SPD/Dekaranger, this was not one of them. The Grand Finale of Digimon Fusion has Bagramon grow to gigantic size for the final battle. He also pulled out a One-Winged Angel form for this fight, but the growth was a separate thing. |

In the Darkwing Duck episode, "Comic Book Capers", D.W writes a comic book based on his adventures which features him dealing with Megavolt and his super remote control that allows him to control all appliances in the city, only for him to be constantly interrupted and people throwing in their own ideas. When Megavolt himself gets his hands on the comic book, he becomes disgusted with the way he's being portrayed and adds in that he uses the remote control to channel the electric company's energy into himself, making him grow ten times his size and dramatic increasing his electrical powers. | |

Power Rangers Take Flight adapts Choujin Sentai Jetman, and thus their method of making monsters turn giant (having the bug creature, called a "Jinnsect", create the monster, and latch off to enlarge it); at one point in the fic, with the Zords inoperable, they begin to shoot the Jinnsects to pieces to prevent a monster growth. However, the red bugs used later in Jetman were Adapted Out in favor of using biomass to create monsters; it's stated a few times something called a "fractal matrix" is responsible for the growths, and for some monsters that didn't grow, the matrix "misfired". In at least one case, they triggered a monster's growth to test said matrix. | |

In Pokémon Sword and Shield, the Dynamax phenomenon allows a trainer to grow one of their Pokémon to giant size for three turns while fighting in an applicable area, greatly increasing its strength and granting it access to new moves. It can normally only be done in what is known as Power Spots - every Stadium in Galar, the Battle Tower, and within Galarian Pokémon Dens. The story's initial villainous plot centers around the fact that it's happening OUTSIDE of Power Spots, which is a Very Bad Thing. Some species of Pokémon can acquire the ability to undergo Gigantamax instead, which causes it to take on a different form similar to Mega Evolution and be able to use an exclusive G-Max Move. | |

Inverted in the board game The Awful Green Things From Outer Space; the crew of the spaceship Znutar need to test various weapons and hopefully find one that causes the eponymous invaders to shrink, reverting to a less-dangerous stage in their life-cycle. However, an unlucky choice of weapon may play the trope straight by causing the Awful Green Things to grow and/or reproduce. | |

In the fighter Touhou Suimusou ~ Immaterial and Missing Power, final boss Ibuki Suika does this as a function of one of her declared attacks "Second Card [Giant Oni on the Scroll]." Her power is control of densitynote Presumably by increasing volume and increasing density so it only makes sense that she can do this. On a Touhou imageboard, there was once a discussion over the implications of her abilities, one of them being the possibility that Suika, while in her mist form, could be inhaled; another being that, if she doesn't have a limit to how big she can become, she would be one of the series' fastest characters (despite herself already having impressive agility, according to tengu reporter Aya Shameimaru, who claims to be the fastest character in Gensokyo, the game's setting), with her smallest moves surpassing by far the speed of light; the last of them being, as a joke reply to who would be the most powerful character in the series, one poster mentioned her scale-increasing ability, to which someone else replied saying that "n times zero is still zero" Alice Margatroid pulls off a more literal example of this trope at the end of Cirno's scenario in Hisoutensoku. After some typical spell cards attacks, she causes two of her helper Shanghai dolls to grow twice as big as Cirno and fire wide lasers. Her last attack then causes a single Shanghai doll to grow as big as her house, taller than the screen height and arm it with swords. The swords eventually start shooting lasers themselves. |

Mazinger Z: In episode 12, Baron Ashura used a size-changing ray to turn a tiny robot into a giant Robeast -Bicong O9-. That ray had been invented by Big Bad Dr. Hell, who previously tested it with Ashura himself/herself, briefly transforming it into a giant. Throughout the series, Hell used more Mechanical Beasts could grow their size. And in Great Mazinger one of the Co-Dragons -Marquis Janus- could change sizes, too. |

In Buso Renkin, Victor does this, although it's to combat a giant robot, the Buster Baron. It's explained that he used the bodies of all the dead creatures around him to create a giant version of himself around him. When the Baron destroys the giant form, he leaps out and catches them by surprise. Doesn't explain where he got the giant pants from, though. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The game tends to include a few spells for this purpose among its various lists, depending on edition. Some will only work on specific creature types like animals or insects, others (like the low-level wizard spell Enlarge) can be cast straight on one's own fellow player characters. Blood apes are a type of red-tinted gorilla with the ability to enlarge themselves, but they only do this in combat, retaining a smaller size to keep their feeding and nesting requirements down (already being six feet tall). Holyphants are tiny, fluffy, winged elephants from the Upper Planes that have the ability to grow to the size of mammoths in order to combat evil. Spriggans are evil fey that normally look like old, wrinkled gnomes but can grow to the size (and strength) of giants in combat. |

The first arc of Digimon Data Squad had all their Mons Of The Week several times larger than what they would usually be, and sometimes they were even shown normal sized before growing. This indicated, of course, that there was a reason for this. Ironically, with all the parallels Savers had with SPD/Dekaranger, this was not one of them. | |

Bowser from Super Mario Bros. has done this a few times, to wit: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: Every single boss except two is a normal enemy enlarged by Kamek's magic (The two being Prince Froggy, who remains normal sized while Kamek shrinks Yoshi, and Roger the Potted Ghost, a ghost not belonging to any normal enemy species). Of special note is giant Baby Bowser, who's big enough that if he gets too close, he destroys the entire castle and Yoshi plummets to his death. Yoshi's Island DS: Every boss is enlarged by Kamek prior to battle, with the exception of Hector the Reflector, Priscilla the Peckish, Six-Faced Sal (all of whom don't belong to any enemy species), Moltz the Very Goonie, Big Guy the Stilted (who are both natural King Mooks in that they were already giant when Kamek brings them in) and Baby Bowser. Bowser has also been magically supersized for the final battles in Super Princess Peach, Mario Party 5, 9 and 10, Paper Mario, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, New Super Mario Bros. 2,note which also extends the privilege to Dry Bowser for the first time and New Super Mario Bros. U. The first time you see him in Super Mario Galaxy 2, he's already "HUUUUGE!" And then he gets EVEN BIGGER for the final battle. Also in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Iggy Koopa's magic enchanted Chain Chomp. Mario Party DS: The trend is inverted; every boss except Bowser is larger than usual, due to the cast being shrunk. Prior to the Final Boss battle, all the main characters (including the one you're playing as) return to their original size, thus settling the final duel on equal grounds. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has the Huge status which doubles the size of a character and boosts their attack by two for two turns. Also inverted in Super Paper Mario, where O'Chunks does a "CHUNK UP!" for his one-on-one battle with Bowser in World 8-1. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Bowser goes giant-mode several times throughout the game when fighting similar sized opponents. And he's playable. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team follows it up by answering the age-old question of what happens when Bowser becomes giant and then gets help from Kamek. |

Pokémon: Kyogre from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire is normally 14 feet tall. When it goes into its Super Mode in the remake, however, its size increases to 32 feet. Boss fights in the Pokémon Rumble series involve using a key to make a Pokémon doll considerably larger than usual. Darkrai becomes giant during the second half of his boss fight in PokéPark 2. In Pokémon Sword and Shield, the Dynamax phenomenon allows a trainer to grow one of their Pokémon to giant size for three turns while fighting in an applicable area, greatly increasing its strength and granting it access to new moves. It can normally only be done in what is known as Power Spots - every Stadium in Galar, the Battle Tower, and within Galarian Pokémon Dens. The story's initial villainous plot centers around the fact that it's happening OUTSIDE of Power Spots, which is a Very Bad Thing. Some species of Pokémon can acquire the ability to undergo Gigantamax instead, which causes it to take on a different form similar to Mega Evolution and be able to use an exclusive G-Max Move. |

Godzilla: While not a villain, Jet Jaguar does this to himself in Godzilla vs. Megalon when he realized he had to distract Megalon until Godzilla arrived. The only problem was that Gigan showed up first, and he and Megalon beat the stuffing out of Jet Jaguar... Also, Minya in both All Monsters Attack and Godzilla: Final Wars. In the former movie it was part of a child's fantasy, but in the latter it was presented as a natural part of Minya's evolution. |

Magic: The Gathering: Pictured above is the classic "Giant Growth" card, which increases a creature's strength and toughness by 3 each (for reference, an average dragon in the setting would be either a 4/4 or a 5/5). There are also variations on the card, such as Mutagenic Growth (which can be paid with life instead of mana, but it's effect is reduced to +2/+2) and Enlarge (gives +7/+7 and forces enemy creatures to block it) The use of +1/+1 counters on creatures is seen as growth in size as well; this is used in various mechanics such as Devour, Monstrosity and Evolve (to name a few). There are also variants on the aforementioned "growth" cards that gives +1/+1 counters, although usually in less quantities because of the fact that +1/+1 counters are permanent rather than a temporary boost. Some Auras giving power and toughness boosts are represented as this as well. The most well known is Eldrazi Conscription. There's also Gigantiform, which can cause a chain reaction of things getting huge. Gigantomancer, which costs a good deal to cast but can very easily turn a lot of creatures... gigantic. |

A heroic example: Tanu, the potion master from the Fablehaven series does this occasionally. In the finale of Book 2, the artifact is protected by what appears to be a harmless cat. When you kill it, it is resurrected as a larger cat. This happens eight times, until the cat is a winged, three-headed, three-tailed monstrosity with snakes sprouting out of its back. | |

On Muppet Babies (1984), Bunsen tries to defeat a giant dough monster (played by Piggy) with his beast blaster. Only he used his yeast blaster by mistake, and we all know what yeast does to dough... Bunsen then counters this by inflating Gonzo to her size with his weirdo inflator. But then the two start falling in love instead. | |

Lord Slug did the same trick in Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug. Apparently this is a common power for 'Super Nameks'. The Saiyans also do this as well, using either the full moon or a technique creating an energy ball mimicking a full moon to transform into a giant monkey called an Oozaru. |

After a fair amount of them get destroyed during the battle for Takigakure, the remaining ones retreat seemingly to regroup, only for them to merge into a giant monster known as the Wrath of Jashin, an avatar of the evil god according to Hidan's mooks. | |

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze Shredder drinks his last vial of ooze, causing him to mutate into a bigger, more muscular version of himself known as "Super Shredder". Unfortunately, in his revenge-fueled rage, Super Shredder recklessly demolishes the supports of the pier in an attempt to crush the turtles, not carrying about the possibility that he'll be killed as well. As a result of this, along with the turtles quickly leaping into water, he is the only one crushed underneath the wooden rubble while the turtles escape unharmed. | |

The 360-degree short film "HELP" made by Justin Lin and YouTube, is a one big presentation of this trope. A cute alien crash-lands on Earth, and before it can phone its companions for help, a random by-passer steals its "cell phone". The alien gives chase, getting madder and bigger as she evades it. It's not an aggressive being, but becomes so in response to aggression, evolving into a menacing character armored in spikes and muscles. It's soon a whopping 200ft tall, before the lady finally realizes her error and surrenders its phone back. The alien shrinks back down and happily departs with no further issue. | |

In Dragon Ball, Piccolo Junior did this during his big fight with Goku near the end of the original series. It was Goku who goaded him into doing it, so he can jump down his throat and retrieve the jar holding Kami. Lord Slug did the same trick in Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug. Apparently this is a common power for 'Super Nameks'.

The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters (1984) was one of these. He started out as a cute little cartoon mascot not unlike the Pillsbury Doughboy, but Ray Stantz's choice of him as the form of the Destructor made him gigantic.

In Turtles Forever, the 2003 Shredder becomes humongazoid for the final battle. It's apparently a feature built into his new body from Krang's technology. Krang's suit can be seen doing this in an early episode of the 1987 series, as well as in the video game Turtles In Time. He tries it on 2003 Shredder in Turtles Forever too, but doesn't do so well. Shredder has this done to him by a dark fairy in the Japanese-made Legend of the Supermutants OVA. |

In one Fantastic Four issue, Reed Richards (prior to the space journey) observes that an alien monster's footprints are getting larger, but not deeper, at it grows in response to attacks. He then tells the officer in charge of getting rid of the creature to keep firing. The bombardment forces the creature to grow and grow and grow... and to become less and less dense, until it becomes a full-on kaiju... and slightly less dense than fog. It dissipates. | |

Kyogre from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire is normally 14 feet tall. When it goes into its Super Mode in the remake, however, its size increases to 32 feet. | |

Mario Party DS: The trend is inverted; every boss except Bowser is larger than usual, due to the cast being shrunk. Prior to the Final Boss battle, all the main characters (including the one you're playing as) return to their original size, thus settling the final duel on equal grounds. | |

My Way Entertainment, of course, did this in their first Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers Gag Dub. In their usual style, it's... changed a bit. | |

A classic example was shown in The Little Mermaid (1989); during the climax, Big Bad Ursula gains the godlike powers of King Triton and uses it grow into a towering monster to murder Ariel. She also does this whenever she shows up in the Kingdom Hearts franchise. | |

In Voltron, it was common for Zarkon's commander to use either magic or science to make the Robeast-of-the-Week grow much larger as it prepares to fight against Voltron. In one especially literal example, after Prince Lotor replaces Commander Yurak as leader of Zarkon's attacks on Planet Arras, Yurak is enlarged into a giant robeast and pitted against Voltron himself. | |

And in Great Mazinger one of the Co-Dragons -Marquis Janus- could change sizes, too. | |

Super Smash Bros.: Mario's original taunt has him grow to giant size for one second and then shrink back down. It's just for show, though. Snorlax's Body Slam attack works like this: whenever it's released from a Poké Ball, it leaps off the screen and then comes back down a few times bigger, hurting whoever it touches (other than the one who released it). Super Smash Bros. 64: In the 1P Game campaign, one of the enemies is Giant Donkey Kong. From Melee onward, Giant Mode is an option in multiplayer, making everyone jumbo-sized for the match. The Super Mushroom item introduced in Melee gives any player who picks it up a boost in size and ability for about ten seconds. The Lightning Bolt introduced in Brawl generally shrinks all of the opponents but can sometimes super-size them instead. In Brawl's Subspace Emissary mode, the Shadow Bugs at one point create a giant dark copy of Diddy Kong. This is one of the toughest fights in the game despite not being an actual boss. Also in the Subspace Emissary, Nagagogs are sumo-wrestlers that, given the chance, will grow bigger and stronger depending on their health bars. Close to full, they're small and blue. Half-gone, they're bigger and yellow. Close to empty, they turn giant and red. And their offensive and defensive capabilities grow accordingly. One of Tabuu's attacks in Brawl is to enlarge himself and fire Eye Beams. Jigglypuff's Final Smash, Puff Up, causes it to grow big enough to fill any of the smaller stages, pushing everyone nearby into the abyss and sending them flying if they're near enough when Jigglypuff's size peaks and it cries out before returning to normal. Bowser's Final Smash, Giga Bowser, overlaps with One-Winged Angel. |
