Hitbox visualization showing Bowser's up smash.

Overview

Bowser thrusts his shell upward from a jump and hits the opponent with his spikes. A powerful attack with a rather long-lasting hitbox. Bowser has a smaller hitbox inside his shell that does 17% damage, but it rarely connects due to the overlapping of the bigger hitbox. Bowser's himself is intangible the moment he jumps off the ground.
