Mechakoopa (メカクッパ, Mechakoopa) is Bowser Jr.'s down special move.
Overview
The Mechakoopa marches until the colliding with an enemy, knocking them back before exploding. It does 2% when jumping and 7% explosive damage when it explodes for a total of 9%. It deals weak diagonal knockback. If the Mechakoopa walks to a ledge without hitting anyone, it will turn around, and if it isn't activated after about five seconds, it will explode on its own. If a player picks up the Mechakoopa it will reset the timer. The Mechakoopa counts as an item that can be picked up and thrown back at the user, similar to Diddy Kong's Banana Peel. Bowser Jr. can only have one Mechakoopa out at a time; the move will fail if he uses it again before the Mechakoopa is gone.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:
| 1. Mechakoopa | 2. Impatient Mechakoopa | 3. Big Mechakoopa |
|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
| "Deploy a Mechakoopa that will explode if thrown, attacked, or just left alone." | "Launch a Mechakoopa a fair distance. It explodes shortly after landing." | "A large, powerful Mechakoopa. Walks past enemies, so throw it to make it go boom!" |
- Mechakoopa: Default.
- Impatient Mechakoopa: The Mechakoopa is flung from the Car, functioning more as a horizontal projectile, and will quickly explode upon hitting the floor. The explosion does a mere 4% damage, and hitting a player with the Mechakoopa prior to explosion does 1%.
- Big Mechakoopa: A much larger Mechakoopa is deployed, which slowly walks a short distance and explodes on its own. It can be picked up and thrown. Thrown, it will do 1% damage and explode for 15% damage. Can KO around 140% damage.

Trivia
- The Mechakoopa's falling speed in Ultimate is identical to the pushing speed of a wind zone in Stage Builder set to 100 power. As such, when used in such a wind zone it will stay in place indefinitely and unanimated until grabbed.
