==Differences from {{SSBB|Bowser}}==
Giga Bowser's forward smash received a mix of buffs and nerfs compared to {{SSBB|Bowser}}'s version, but was slightly nerfed overall.
*{{change|It has a [[flame]] effect, which the original didn't have.}}
**{{buff|this means it will deal extra knockback against {{SSBB|ivysaur}}.}}
**{{nerf|however, this also means it will deal reduced knockback against {{SSBB|Squirtle}}.}}
*{{change|It is now a single hit instead of a multi-hit.}}
**{{buff|This makes its damage output more consistent, and increases its minimum damage output (10% → 24%). The lack of a first hit also prevents a common issue with Bowser's version where the first hit knocks the opponent out of range of the second hit.}}
**{{nerf|The maximum damage output is lower (33% → 28%), and the startup is the same as Bowser's hit 2, making the earliest hit occur later (frame 26 → 28).}}
*{{buff|It has more active frames (4 → 13), and due to the rearranged hitboxes, it is much easier to get the sweetspot as opposed to the sourspot.}}
*{{buff|it has a lower hitlag multiplier (1.2× to 1.0×) making it harder to DI.}}
*{{nerf|It has significantly reduced knockback values compared to Bowser's sweetspot (25 (base)/81 (scaling) → 5/60), KOing later despite its increased base damage.}}
*{{nerf|It lacks the [[IASA]] frames that Bowser's has, increasing its ending lag (FAF 66 → 70).}}
