I have heard that bowsers bair can be used as a pseudo spike, but what about his dair?

I was playing a Bowser ditto with Kaotical on Saturday and during his recovery I decided to dair the ledge next to him. I messed up my L cancel and the small shockwave around bowser when he lands pushed Kaotical's bowser away from the ledge at a slow downward angle, he attempted his up and B again, but could not gain the height to get back.

Could this be used in Bowser combat as a surprise for a more predictable and better punished recovery?

You can also kamikaze with bowser, by doing forward B while they try to get back on the stage,or vice versa.

The Down Air has good knockback even when it's blocked... but it's really not a good move to use like that I don't think.

An almost suicidal spike to do on a Fox player is to do a Down + A RIGHT when Fox propells upwards on his Up + B. For some reason, no matter which character you use, if you do a down + A on a Fox at the right moment of his Up + B recovery, Fox will be spiked to his death and his Up + B will propell you back onto the stage (if you're lucky). It is risky, but try it sometime.
