How to Beat Bowser

Bowser Strategy
Spam Bros. Attacks Bring a Lot of Recovery Items Focus Your Attacks on Bowser Don't Get Smacked Enraged State Extends Attacks

Spam Bros. Attacks

Bowser can easily overwhelm you with his minions and own attacks so you got to end this as fast as you can. Spam your strongest Bros. Attacks like Bomb Derby (Clockout Blow's random targeting makes it ineffective as minions are always present) and Yoo Who Cannon to make the most out of your turns.

Bring a Lot of Recovery Items

This will still be a grueling fight even with the Bros. Attacks spam and you will need both HP and BP recovery items to endure the relentless assault. Stock up on all kinds of consumables including Refreshing Herbs and 1-Up Mushrooms before entering Bowser's chamber.

Focus Your Attacks on Bowser

Bowser's minions are the most annoying (though they make the fight more interesting) part of the boss battle. They each get their turns on wearing you down and dragging the fight and are always resummoned!

The best way to deal with them is just focus on Bowser while trying to reduce the minions' numbers with area attacks.

You can also take them out one by one through counters during their own turns! When a Koopa attacks, time your jump so you land on the Koopa then use the shell to pick off the other minions.

Don't Get Smacked!

The attack that you should look out for the most is the follow-up charged punch after Bowser sends his minions at you one by one.

Getting hit by this punch removes the Bro from the battlefield for a few turns, which sucks because it will still result in a Game Over if the remaining Bro got downed, even if the knocked off Bro still has HP.

Enraged State Extends Attacks

Bowser will enter his enraged state at around 40% HP. While in this state, Bowser will have extended attacks that will require you to stay focused on dodging and countering for a longer time.
