Koopa Klaw is the side special move of Bowser in his Super Smash Bros. Melee appearance. It is a claw swipe that hits enemies farther away, but also causes Bowser to grab onto enemies very close to him. Foes are able to use their attack buttons and wiggle their control sticks to escape Bowser's clutches quicker, but if they do not move at all, Bowser can bite the opponent up to eight times, doing 2-3% damage with each bite. The Koopa Klaw has the unique ability of allowing Bowser to grab onto an opponent in midair. If Bowser is holding someone in the move, they can be thrown in two directions: pressing forward on the control stick causes Bowser to slash the enemy upwards, while pressing backwards causes him to hurl the enemy backwards with a large amount of knockback.
This special attack is shared by Giga Bowser. Unusually, while he can throw the victim, he is unable to do damage with the actual bite.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Koopa Klaw was replaced with Flying Slam, a somewhat similar move, due to both moves involving Bowser grabbing the foe with his claws before inflicting any damage.
