How to unlock the Pata-Pata-Almost achievement in Patapon Remastered - Definitive Guide
This trophy is self-explanatory, but what makes it tricky is that you can't see exactly how much remaining HP bosses have (or any enemies for that matter). The only health indication is that their eyes will start looking more fatigued when they're close to death but this isn't an accurate way to know that killing them would net you the trophy.
While semi-luck based, the most reliable method seems to be with the first boss, Dodonga, at low levels (up to lv.3). Play normally until the 3rd round, at which point it will be below 10% health. Then use the attack chant a few more times (3 or 4 should be enough at level 1), and then just put your controller down and let it kill your Patapons. The trophy should pop on the "Mission Failed" screen. If it doesn't, you'll have to attempt it again.
