Magnaboss (マグナボス Magunabosu) is perhaps the ultimate teaching tool. When Skywarp and Santon fail to impart a lesson upon their youthful charge Lio Junior, combining into Magnaboss does the trick. Fusing Skywarp's intelligence and Santon's kindness with Lio Junior's courage, the result is a perfectly balanced warrior who achieves in seconds what it would take years of training to accomplish.
Through Magnaboss, Lio Junior is offered glimpses of the kind of warrior he could become if he'd just study, train and grow the heck up. And through Magnaboss, the other Maximals, including Lio Convoy, can witness the troublesome cub's ultimate potential for themselves.
