'''Bowser Jr.''' ({{ja|クッパ Jr.}}, ''Koopa Jr.'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. After initially being [[leak]]ed on August 19th, 2014 as part of the [[ESRB leak]], he was revealed as a fighter with ''Smash for 3DS''{{'}}s launch in Japan on September 13, 2014, followed by his official trailer being shown off during the [[Nintendo Direct#Super Smash Bros. for Wii U: 50-Fact Extravaganza|''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' 50-Fact Extravaganza]] on October 23rd, 2014.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0BBGzfw0pQ Wii U - Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 50-Fact Extravaganza]</ref> Caety Sagoian reprises her role as Bowser Jr.'s voice actor, albeit via recycled voice clips from various [[Mario (universe)|''Mario'' spin-off games]]. The [[Koopalings]] also use their voice clips from the ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros.}}'' games, which were voiced by Lani Minella ({{s|mariowiki|Larry}}, {{s|mariowiki|Morton}}, {{s|mariowiki|Wendy}}, and {{s|mariowiki|Lemmy}}), Mike Vaughn ({{s|mariowiki|Iggy}} and {{s|mariowiki|Ludwig}}) and Dan Falcone ({{s|mariowiki|Roy}}).

Bowser Jr. is currently ranked 48th out of 55 on the [[tier list]], placing him in the F tier. Bowser Jr. is notably the only character in the game who has disjointed [[hitbox]]es on all of his attacks. This distinctive trait enables him to attack from a reasonably safe distance, which is supplemented by a few of his attacks being powerful enough to KO under 100%. He also has a very capable [[neutral game]]: [[Clown Kart Dash]] functions as an excellent approach option and provides an impressive amount of versatility, while [[Mechakoopa]] is useful for pressuring and stage control. Despite being a [[Weight|heavyweight]], Bowser Jr. also sports a deceptively good air game, courtesy of his fairly fast aerial mobility and his aerial attacks' follow-up and juggling potentials.

Despite his strengths, Bowser Jr. has noticeable flaws. His overall grounded mobility is slow, which necessitates using Clown Kart Dash in order to keep up with faster opponents. Lag is another glaring issue; many of Bowser Jr.'s attacks have among the largest amounts of ending lag in the game, requiring players to use [[read]]s or [[baiting]] in order to secure KOs with him. Bowser Jr.'s grab game also suffers from his standing, pivot and dash grabs' overall lag, and his grab game is further made worse by very unimpressive throws, with only his back throw being useful, as a situational KOing option. Lastly, Bowser Jr.'s recovery is predictable and unsafe, as [[Abandon Ship!]] is very susceptible to [[gimp]]s due to offering no overhead protection, it can only travel in one direction, and it can be rendered unusable if he is hit even by a weak attack.

Bowser Jr. has had minimal impact in tournaments and the current [[metagame]], owing to a small playerbase. Although Bowser Jr. previously attained stronger tournament results and a deeper metagame from {{Sm|Tweek}}, he later switched to using the higher-tiered {{SSB4|Cloud}}, leading to a stagnation of Bowser Jr.'s own metagame. Bowser Jr. has still made waves of attention from time to time, such as with Jade defeating {{Sm|Trela}}'s {{SSB4|Ryu}} at [[CEO 2016]], but he struggles to make an impact at large tournaments.

==How to unlock==
Complete one of the following:
* Play 100 VS Matches.
* Clear {{SSB4-3DS|Classic Mode}} as {{SSB4|Bowser}} on [[Difficulty|Intensity]] 6.0 or higher.
After completing one of the two methods, Bowser Jr. must then be defeated on [[3D Land]].

Unlike the 3DS version, Bowser Jr. is a starter character in {{forwiiu}}.

==Attributes==
Bowser Jr. is tied with {{SSB4|Samus}} as the sixth [[Weight|heaviest]] character, yet he possesses overall decent mobility. While he has slow [[walk]]ing and [[dash]]ing speeds, a fast [[falling speed]] and above average [[gravity]], all of which are typical of a heavyweight, he has a surprisingly fast [[air speed]] and above-average [[air acceleration]]. Outside of this, Bowser Jr. possesses a few unorthodox, yet noteworthy, traits. Like [[Duck Hunt (SSB4)|Duck Hunt's dog and duck]], he and his [[Koopa Clown Car#Super Smash Bros. 4|Junior Clown Car]] have two separate hurtboxes. However, the properties of Bowser Jr. and his Clown Car's hurtboxes are much more apparent: attacks that hit the Clown Car will deal 0.88× damage, whereas those that hit Bowser Jr. himself will deal 1.15× damage.<ref name="ClownCar">[http://smashboards.com/threads/bowser-jr-s-damage-mitigation-mechanic.369430/ Bowser Jr.'s damage mitigation mechanic]</ref> However, Bowser Jr.'s hitbox takes priority over the Clown Car's hitbox<ref name="Hitboxes">[https://ssbworld.com/blog/45/bowser-jr-s-hurt-boxes:-an-inconvienent-quirk Bowser Jr's Hurtboxes: An Inconvienent Quirk]</ref>, making him vulnerable to receiving more damage more often than not. Although the knockback calculation ignores this, he will still be KO'd earlier than most heavyweights, as the knockback formula takes the target's damage after the attack damage has been added. One unique quirk Bowser Jr. possesses is that all but one of his attacks have disjointed [[hitbox]]es (with the only exception being [[Clown Kart Dash]]), which gives him decent overall range.

[[Clown Kart Dash]] is considered to be Bowser Jr.'s best move overall because of its versatility, with its most apparent benefit being much better movement to make up for his slow dashing speed (which can be made even faster via [[jump-canceling|jump canceling]]) and grants him an excellent approach option. Clown Kart Dash is also integral to Bowser Jr. due to its mindgame and damage racking potentials. It can function either as a strong head-on attack or initiate aerial combos due Bowser Jr. being able to jump during it, which are further improved by jump canceling. Lastly, it can function as a horizontal recovery option, which is further supplemented by its [[wikipedia:Doughtnut (driving)|doughnut]]-based attack and having [[armor]] that can withstand a maximum of 7%.

[[Abandon Ship!]] is another useful move that possesses impressive knockback and grants Bowser Jr. considerable vertical distance. Unlike most recovery moves, Abandon Ship! does not initiate helplessness; this allows Bowser Jr. to not only air dodge if necessary, but also allows him to perform a powerful hammer swing upon pressing the attack button, which is an almost guaranteed KOing option when used in sync with Clown Kart Dash at high percentages. [[Mechakoopa]] is a very useful tool for zoning, combos, follow-ups, and even defensive purposes due to its ability to block incoming projectiles like {{SSB4|Link}} and {{SSB4|Toon Link}}'s [[Bomb (Link)|Bombs]] can.

Bowser Jr.'s good aerial mobility supplements the utility of his aerial attacks. His neutral aerial is useful as both an edge-guarding and out of shield option. His forward and back aerials are useful as edge-guarding, spacing and KOing options. While Bowser Jr.'s up aerial only hits above him, it is capable of juggling and can KO on stages with low ceilings, such as [[Battlefield (SSB4)|Battlefield]] or [[Town and City]]. Down aerial can shield stab and works well used out of Clown Kart Dash at lower percentages, due to the hitbox it produces compensating for its high landing lag.

Despite his great aerial mobility and damage racking potential, Bowser Jr. is not without his flaws. One of his biggest problems is that his recovery is glaringly susceptible to gimps. While Abandon Ship! grants him impressive vertical distance, a weak hit from an attack can result in Bowser Jr. not being able to respawn his Clown Car if the player does not [[button mash]]. Another major problem that Bowser Jr. faces is a lack of viable options on shield, making him susceptible to punishes. Bowser Jr. is also a very straight-forward character, which can make him quite predictable at times. In addition, Mechakoopa is the crux of Bowser Jr.'s neutral game, making it easy (especially for characters such as {{SSB4|Rosalina & Luma}}) to shut down his options. Also, his [[Clown Cannon]] is a slow move that, unlike most chargeable projectiles, cannot be stored. Despite his overall grab range being rather long, his grabs have very high start-up and ending lag, while his throws are not very useful in general due to their inability to KO at reasonable percentages or initiate combos. Lastly, Bowser Jr. suffers from poor KO potential due to having very few reliable KOing options (his smash attacks and his forward/back aerials), which is further compounded by said options being burdened with considerable ending lag.

Bowser Jr. gains very few buffs from his [[Character customization|custom moves]]. Piercing Cannon is faster and pierces opponents, but it deals less damage and knockback. Air Cannon is also faster and briefly stalls Bowser Jr. in midair, but replaces the cannonball with a windbox, which re-purposes it from an offensive option to a defensive option. Big Mechakoopa is stronger and larger, but it sacrifices Mechakoopa's ability to trip up opponents. Outside of these, Bowser Jr.'s remaining customs are less effective than the default versions.

Overall, Bowser Jr. fares well with a bait and punish playstyle like [[Bowser (SSB4)|his father]] does, but he can also be potent at pressuring the opponent thanks to Clown Kart Dash and Mechakoopa. However, his slew of his easily exploitable weaknesses can make him a bit underwhelming overall and greatly overshadowed compared to the rest of the cast. While his flaws have resulted in his lack of representation in the Western scene, the Japanese scene views him more favorably. Additionally, professionals like {{Sm|Tweek}} have shown that he can be viable when his strengths are played wisely and to their fullest.

==Update history==
Bowser Jr. has been buffed slightly via game updates. The most notable instance occurred in update 1.1.4, which moderately decreased his smash attacks' ending lag and made his forward and back aerials stronger. The changes to the shield mechanics in updates [[1.1.0]] and [[1.1.1]] also slightly help him due to some of his moves possessing high damage outputs and/or hitting multiple times.

|game=SSB4
|neutralcount=2
|neutralinf=y
|neutralname=&nbsp;
|neutral1dmg=3%
|neutral2dmg=2%
|neutralinfdmg=2% (loop), 3% (last)
|neutraldesc=The Junior Clown Car performs a {{s|wikipedia|one-two combo}}, followed by a flurry of punches, followed by a jab. It has impressive damage racking potential, as it can easily deal around 20%. Its first hit is quite useful for [[Lock#Jab lock|jab locks]] due to its minimal ending lag, whereas its last hit's extremely high knockback growth can KO around 130%-150% while near the edge. However, its neutral infinite is quite easy to escape, even with minimal [[Smash directional influence|SDI]], while its last hit is punishable. As a result, it is best used against off-stage opponents that are attempting to grab the edge.
|ftiltname=&nbsp;
|ftiltdmg=8%
|ftiltdesc=The Junior Clown Car thrusts a pitchfork forward. It can be angled and is very useful for spacing.
|utiltname=&nbsp;
|utiltdmg=6%
|utiltdesc=The Junior Clown Car thrusts a pitchfork upward. It can combo into itself beginning at 0% and juggle at medium percentages, but has a blind spot between the fork's prongs and the Junior Clown Car.
|dtiltname=&nbsp;
|dtiltdmg=1.5% (hits 1-2), 5% (hit 3)
|dtiltdesc=The Junior Clown Car uses its tongue to lick forward three times. It has a fair amount of utility, as it is efficient at warding off rushdowns, can act as a set-up for a dash attack, or interfere with an opponent attempting to grab an edge due to its undulating hitbox.
|dashname=&nbsp;
|dashdmg=1.5% (hits 1-3), 4% (hit 4)
|dashdesc=The Junior Clown Car opens its mouth to swing a [[mariowiki:Grinder (obstacle)|Grinder]] twice. Its loop hits do not connect together very well at high percentages.
|fsmashname=Smash Twin Drills
|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|1}} (hits 1-5), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|11}} (hit 6)
|fsmashdesc=The Junior Clown Car uses two drills to drill the opponent in place. The final hit is a powerful KOing option, while the whole move has low ending lag and it can be angled.
|usmashname=&nbsp;
|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|1}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|1.3}} (hits 2-5), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|1}} (hit 6), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|6}} (hit 7)
|usmashdesc=Bowser Jr. performs a handstand to attack with the Junior Clown Car's spinning propeller. It is Bowser Jr.'s fastest smash attack, with its multiple hits being useful for pressuring shields or denying aerial approaches.
|dsmashname=&nbsp;
|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|18}}
|dsmashdesc=The Junior Clown Car slams wrecking balls on both sides. It is Bowser Jr.'s most powerful smash attack, and is the third strongest down smash in the game, making it deadly for [[punishment]]. However, it has high ending lag unlike his other smash attacks, making it equally as punishable.
|nairname=&nbsp;
|nairdmg=6% (clean), 5% (mid), 3% (late)
|nairdesc=The Junior Clown Car spins around with the boxing glove arms extended. It is a weak but useful aerial, which combos reliably from [[Clown Kart Dash]] and is effective as a anti-pressure and edgeguarding option.
|fairname=&nbsp;
|fairdmg=11%/9% (clean), 8%/6.5% (mid), 5%/4% (late), 2% (landing)
|fairdesc=The Junior Clown Car swings a wrecking ball forward in a circling motion. Landing while the wrecking ball is still out produces another hitbox, which can lead to more follow-ups on the ground, as well as compensate for its high landing lag. Useful for edge-guarding and spacing, as well as a viable KOing option.
|bairname=&nbsp;
|bairdmg=14% (clean tip), 8% (clean base, late)
|bairdesc=The Junior Clown Car thrusts a wrecking ball backward. Like his forward aerial, landing while the wrecking ball is still out produces another hitbox, which can lead to more follow-ups on the ground. Useful for edge-guarding and a viable KOing option due to its high knockback.
|uairname=&nbsp;
|uairdmg=10% (clean), 6.5% (late)
|uairdesc=Swings a {{s|mariowiki|hammer}} above himself. It has little lag and is a useful juggling option.
|dairname=&nbsp;
|dairdmg=1.3% (loop), 2% (last), 2% (landing)
|dairdesc=The Junior Clown Car extends a drill from its underside hatch to pierce opponents. Its high ending lag is compensated by the hitbox it produces upon landing, which grants it follow-up potential. If the attack hits an opponent, it can cancel quickly into other moves; if not, Bowser Jr. suffers from moderate ending lag.
|grabname=&nbsp;
|grabdesc=The Junior Clown Car extends a claw to grab the opponent. A slow grab overall.
|pummelname=&nbsp;
|pummeldmg=2%
|pummeldesc=Hits the opponent with a toy hammer. A fairly fast pummel. The toy hammer looks identical to the one used in the [[mariowiki:Sticker_(Paper_Mario:_Sticker_Star)#Eekhammer|Eekhammer sticker]] from ''[[mariowiki:Paper Mario: Sticker Star|Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. Each hit plays the recurring sound of [[Mario]] jumping onto a [[Goomba]] in the ''Super Mario'' franchise.
|fthrowname=&nbsp;
|fthrowdmg=3% (hit 1), 6% (throw)
|fthrowdesc=The Junior Clown Car throws an uppercut. It is fairly good for launching opponents at the edge for an edge-guard.
|bthrowname=&nbsp;
|bthrowdmg=12%
|bthrowdesc=The Junior Clown Car spins and then throws the opponent backward. Bowser Jr.'s most powerful throw, as it can KO most middleweights starting around 160% without [[rage]].
|uthrowname=&nbsp;
|uthrowdmg=7%
|uthrowdesc=The Junior Clown Car flings the opponent upward. It can lead into up aerial at low percentages.
|dthrowname=&nbsp;
|dthrowdmg=0.5% (hits 1-5), 4% (throw)
|dthrowdesc=The Junior Clown Car throws the opponent onto the ground and then extends a drill from its underside hatch to pierce opponents. It can be used to pressure the opponent into his Clown Kart Dash.
|floorfname=&nbsp;
|floorfdmg=6%
|floorfdesc=Gets up while spinning a pair boxing gloves outstretched on both sides.
|floorbname=&nbsp;
|floorbdmg=7%
|floorbdesc=Gets up while spinning a Grinder around himself.
|floortname=&nbsp;
|floortdmg=5%
|floortdesc=Gets up while thrusting a pitchfork on both of sides.
|edgename=&nbsp;
|edgedmg=7%
|edgedesc=Slams a pair of wrecking balls while climbing up.
|nsdefname=Clown Cannon
|nsdefdmg=8.5% (uncharged), 5.9% (uncharged late), 20% (fully charged), 14% (fully charged late)
|nsdefdesc=The Junior Clown Car opens its mouth and fires a {{s|mariowiki|cannonball}}. It can be charged to increase the cannonball's speed and power. At the end of its path, the cannonball will drop to the ground, which can hit opponents attempting to recover if it is spaced properly. However, it has high overall lag.
|nsc1name=Piercing Cannon
|nsc1dmg=4% (uncharged), 10% (fully charged)
|nsc1desc=Fires a cannonball that pierces opponents and travels faster, although the cannonball is smaller and deals noticeably less damage.
|nsc2name=Air Cannon
|nsc2dmg=—
|nsc2desc=Fires a gust of wind that will push opponents backward, although it deals no damage. In the air, it can also be used to move backward quickly, aiding Bowser Jr.'s horizontal recovery.
|ssdefname=Clown Kart Dash
|ssdefdmg=4%+speed (collision), 8% (doughnut)
|ssdefdesc=The Junior Clown Car transforms into a [[mariowiki:kart|go-kart]] that speeds forward. Tilting the [[Control stick|control stick/circle pad]] in the opposite direction or pressing the attack/special button will cause the Junior Clown Car to perform a [[wikipedia:Doughnut (driving)|doughnut]], which deals more damage and has higher knockback to opponents on contact compared to simply charging into them. Spinning out in the air can produce horizontal movement, after which it can be used again. All versions of the move can be [[Jump-canceling|jump canceled]], even right after hitting an opponent, which can lead into combos and mix-ups.
|ssc1name=Koopa Drift
|ssc1dmg=2%+speed (collision), 1% (doughnut loop), 2% (doughnut last)
|ssc1desc=The go-kart careens forward during the doughnut, hitting opponents multiple times. Careening in the air grants much more horizontal recovery, but its jumps are much lower.
|ssc2name=Grounding Dash
|ssc2dmg=8%+speed
|ssc2desc=The Junior Clown Car travels faster initially, but its doughnut does not deal damage. It buries grounded opponents on contact, but grants less horizontal distance.
|usdefname=Abandon Ship!
|usdefdmg=5% (contact), 13% (explosion), 15%/10% (hammer)
|usdefdesc=Bowser Jr. ejects himself from the Junior Clown Car. The Junior Clown Car slowly falls to the ground and then explodes with high power when the move is used in midair, whereas it will simply explode after a brief period when used on the ground. When Bowser Jr. is out of the Junior Clown Car, he is not rendered [[helpless]] and can still attack with a hammer, which is powerful enough to KO at medium to high percentages. However, taking any weak hit while out of the Junior Clown Car prevents another use of the move without button mashing or landing.
|usc1name=Meteor Ejection
|usc1dmg=8%/3% (contact), 10% (explosion), 15%/10% (hammer)
|usc1desc=The Junior Clown Car produces a meteor effect upon activation. However, it covers less vertical distance, whereas Bowser Jr. seems to cover more horizontal distance after being ejected.
|usc2name=Koopa Meteor
|usc2dmg=17% (contact), 15%/10% (hammer)
|usc2desc=Ejects Bowser Jr. high into the air before the Junior Clown Car explodes, ejecting him downward. Deals strong knockback and a powerful meteor smash upon contact on opponents caught near the bottom.
|dsdefname=Mechakoopa
|dsdefdmg=2% (contact), 7% (explosion)
|dsdefdesc=The Junior Clown Car drops a {{s|mariowiki|Mechakoopa}} from its underside hatch. The Mechakoopa falls in a strong downward arc; once it lands, it starts walking around. If it reaches a wall or dead end, it will turn around and walk in the opposite direction. If it makes contact with an opponent (or travels enough distance in the air without landing), it will detonate. Lastly, if enough time passes and they have not hit an opponent yet, they will spark out and detonate automatically. They can be picked up and thrown as items either by Bowser Jr. or his opponent.
|dsc1name=Impatient Mechakoopa
|dsc1dmg=5%
|dsc1desc=Launches a Mechakoopa at a fair distance. The Mechakoopa is armed to explode the moment it is launched and will explode shortly after landing.
|dsc2name=Big Mechakoopa
|dsc2dmg=15%
|dsc2desc=The Mechakoopa is larger and walks a shorter distance, but it deals more damage if it is thrown.
|fsname=Shadow Mario Paint
|fsdmg=3% (paint), 5% (explosion)
|fsdesc=Bowser Jr. transforms into {{s|mariowiki|Shadow Mario}} and uses the {{s|mariowiki|Magic Paintbrush}} to [[mariowiki:Graffiti|paint a giant, orange X]] on the screen. Anyone caught in the X's hitbox will be damaged, with the X pulling opponents into it once they are hit. The X will clear away with an explosion after some time. The sheer size of the X makes avoiding damage from this Final Smash difficult, similarly to [[Iceberg]].

===Tier placement and history===
Bowser Jr. was initially considered to be a high-tier character due to his attacks having disjointed hitboxes and [[Clown Kart Dash]]'s incredible versatility. However, like many other characters, Bowser Jr. began to drop on the tier list once players discovered that his he has a very linear [[neutral game]], lackluster shield pressure, laggy grabs, and exploitable recovery. All of these attributes resulted in him struggling against many top-tier characters. However, {{Sm|Tweek}} still managed to achieve impressive results with Bowser Jr., such as placing 25th at [[EVO 2015]], which was especially significant due to Bowser Jr.'s lack of improvement with custom moves. Tweek also managed to place 33rd at [[GENESIS 3]] and consistently achieve top 8 placings in his region. As a result, Bowser Jr. was ranked 34th on the first [[tier list]].

However, after Tweek dropped Bowser Jr. in favor of {{SSB4|Cloud}}, his tournament prominence has dropped significantly. While he still achieves decent results thanks to many dedicated players, such as {{Sm|Vicegrip}} and {{Sm|Jade}} (the latter of whom notably defeated {{Sm|Trela}} at [[CEO 2016]]), and his metagame keeps being developed, Bowser Jr.'s lack of high placings at tournaments have resulted in him tying with {{SSB4|Wii Fit Trainer}} for 46th/47th on the second tier list, and then slightly dropping to 48th on the third tier list. Currently, Bowser Jr. remains ranked as 48th on the fourth and current tier list, which can be attributed to {{Sm|Kub4444}} achieving 17th at [[Smash Factor 6]]. Despite this, his tier placement remains debatable; some players say he should be ranked even lower, whereas others argue that he should be ranked slightly higher.

:'''Bowser Jr.'''
::{{flag|ntsc}} ''Bowser's beloved, spoiled son sports a bandanna with a large mouth drawn on it. Like his father, Bowser Jr. longs to take Mario down. In Smash Bros., he'll fight from inside his heavily armed Junior Clown Car. The Clown Car takes less damage than Bowser Jr., so mind your positioning.''

::{{flag|pal}} ''Bowser's probably a big fan of his son, what with him hating Mario just as much as dear old Dad does. The tyke's Junior Clown Car is packed with gadgets and gizmos to throw at enemies! By the way, he's extra vulnerable when he jumps out of it, but...you wouldn't dream of attacking the cute little fella then, would you?''

==[[Alternate costume (SSB4)#Bowser Jr.|Alternate costumes]]==
Instead of alternate color schemes, Bowser Jr.'s [[alternate costume]]s consist of the [[Koopalings]]. Bowser Jr.'s Junior Clown Car is the only one with black eyes and horizontal orange "eye paint", while the Koopalings' Clown Cars have yellow mechanical eyes with vertical black "eye paint".

==Trivia==
*Bowser Jr. is the only character who does not have an alternate costume that shares the same name as the default costume or is a palette swap of the original costume. Due to this, he's the only character to use his default color scheme in his Alt. trophies.<!--Do not add Pac-Man here. Neither his 3DS nor Wii U trophy show his default palette.-->
**Similarly, Bowser Jr. is the only character who does not use an alternative costume when he is fought in rounds 4-5 in {{forwiiu}}'s classic mode, as well as Smash Tour with customs. However, Larry will appear in his place in a team battle if the player chooses a previously-defeated Bowser Jr. as a teammate.
**This additionally makes Bowser Jr. and {{SSB4|Villager}} are the only characters where all eight of their palette swaps have a chance of appearing in [[All-Star Mode]]. However, because his placement in All-Star Mode is based on his debut rather than that of the [[Koopalings]] (who debuted before him), the Koopalings will be misplaced chronologically during All-Star mode if the opponent's costume is a Koopaling. The same applies to {{SSB4|Olimar}} and [[Alph]].
*In Bowser Jr.'s reveal trailer, he is seen firing a cannonball which then explodes. However, this does not happen in game, not even from his custom moves. Also, his reveal trailer is the only one to have a character use a shield in the CGI portion of the trailer.
*Bowser Jr. is the only [[newcomer]] to be both a [[starter character]] and an [[unlockable character]] in ',                   'SSB4''.
*Bowser Jr. was on the brink of being cut as a playable character due to limited time and resources. He barely got onto the roster due to the game staff's diligent work.<ref>[http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=145444294&postcount=63 Nintendo Dream: December 2014 Issue Preview (Miyamoto, Sakurai, Nintendo staff)]</ref>
*When Bowser Jr. gets a [[Super Leaf]], the ears will be on his head but the tail will be on the back of his Junior Clown Car.
**When he uses Abandon Ship!, the tail on the Junior Clown Car disappears.
*One of Bowser Jr.'s [[conquest]] teams is called the "Kooky Kids". "Kooky" is also Ludwig's name in the [[wikipedia:DiC Entertainment|DiC Entertainment]] cartoons ''{{s|mariowiki|The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3}}'' and [[mariowiki:Super Mario World (cartoon)|''Super Mario World'']].
**On the official ''Super Smash Bros.'' Facebook page, Wendy was called "a Kootie-Pie", a reference to her name in the DIC Entertainment cartoons.
**On the same Facebook page, Lemmy is noted as "Hip but no Hop", a reference to Lemmy being called Hip and Iggy being called Hop in the cartoons.
*In ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8 Deluxe}}'', the {{s|mariowiki|Koopa Clown}} vehicle, if used by a Koopaling will change colors to match the ones they use in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.
