This=Win. I've done it before. I usually die because I get carried away with the Peach Bomber part, and forget about the dodging, but this strategy does work very well.Spam Peach Bomber (maybe mix in some aerials). When the boss is about to attack, float. Land. Rinse and repeat.
Well... I tried that, didn't work. I've done it before, though. You have to time it just right.Stand below Tabuu that way you can see the waves coming at you at the best/most convenient angle. Just time it and spotdodge them all. It really isn't hard, just don't get nervous and mess up.
You airdodge it.How do i avoid porky's rotating lazer?
Do i just jump away from it?
I usually just take the damage, and live with it, but i'm tired of that.
You may want to watch this.DONT USE OLIMAR!!!!!!!! HE IS FAST BUT TOO LIGHT AND DOES NOT HAV ENOUGH RANGE TO STAY AWAY FROM DUON!!!!!!!!
Wow. I've always loved it when he did the thrust attack. I simply do a dodge attack tho the other side and bash him to my hearts content. i've gotten rid of as much as two thirds of his health by doing that, and this is on intense!. also for those who have trouble with galleom, just go right up to him and bash him. I know that sounds suicide, but you just need to dodge his attacks and all of a sudden, he's one of the easiest bossesYea but Fox is cheap. I really want this red badge of courage for Snake alone, I just need to conceive a strategy to minimize damage when fighting Porkey and Duon.
Does anyone know if you can DI out of Porkey's rapid thrust attack? I've tried every direction possible but it seems like the attack has a vacuum effect and KO's at unexpected levels.
I was reading through the thread when I saw this, I thought you could not use hammers on boss battle challenges? I tried using a hammer on "beat boss battles with every char." at my friends house (who was to lazy to do it himself) and it didn't workSpot-dodge/roll.
Personally, I used my hammer for that challenge but DK works well on ground based bosses.
Thats because it only works in the PAL (European/Australian) version of Brawl.I was reading through the thread when I saw this, I thought you could not use hammers on boss battle challenges?

True in bold. I wouldnt, however, recommend Zelda for another reason. Her jumps (and her Up+B) is rather poor against Duon if you cant time an air dodge as he does his 'Charge-across-stage' attack. Shiek is overally the better choice....I think doing it with Shiek also counts as doing it with Zelda. Also, avoid moves that make you lag (Zelda's kicks do lots of damage, but they freeze her in the air).
Which laser are you talking about? The one when he is hovering or the one when he is standing?I usually get to Galleom, Duon, or Porky at the 7th stage before dying as Dedede, and the times I die to Porky are when his lazer sends me straight upward, what causes that?
I'm doing that, and defeated intense with Charizard, Fox, Marth, Cpt. Falcon, Wolf, Toon Link and Zelda. It's a hell lot of work, but really fun. I remember the first time I won on intense, and I went crazy. Now, it's like 'next', and you move onto the next char.Like just about everything else you practice on, after a while Boss Battles becomes nothing more than a joke. Intense? Bah. After I swept that thing I was craving for a higher level of difficulty... Boss Battles on Intense makes for a great warm-up.
Defeated it with all the characters... though I can't say whether I defeated it as Sheik, Zelda, and PT as stand-alones. Can't remember.
Best way: Play your way up with ALL the characters. Yes, that means wasting a lot of your lifetime sweeping Easy, then Normal, then Hard, then Very Hard, clearing with every character... That way, before you know it, those bosses will be cake.
I usually just feel more safe with a character that can jump over Duon when he charges. Tho I can execute an airdodge, it just feels better, heh.I don't find Zelda's jumps as bad, but rather how laggy all of her attacks are. Basic movement is up to the player, but the laggier an attack is, unless it's a near instant kill move (like Charizard's Rock Smash), then it should not be recommended unless the boss is at a point where you'd have enough time to use it or not.
I say floatier characters better stay in the air, some characters should double jump -> airdodge -> fastfall to ground -> jump -> airdodge. The double jumping is there so you will be falling towards the upcoming laser, and by double jumping I mainy mean you jump and almost immediately cancel it with a middle jump (This doesnt apply for ALL characters. People like Zelda or Ike should use their full ground jumps). This is however not recommended for Yoshi, Ness and Lucas, since they should more or less ground jump both times. (Or maybe double jump and airdodge twice? What works best? Heh, it was a long time ago I did BBI with Yoshi/Ness/Lucas).As for the ground strategy, Ange, you got it right perfectly. I couldn't figure out how to explain it, which is the only reason I waited so long. But you nailed it just right. The lazer has to come move to you and change dirrections. And it's better if you're already able to dodge, which is why it is recommended that you be waiting for it in mid air, instead of jumping from the ground a little after it's released.
Its funny is you suddenly try Easy when you always go on Intense. I actually get more damage on Easy because Im so used to their supersonic speed on Intense. However, its fun to do SPEEDRUNS on Easy. Intense isnt actually about speedrunning, more 'take-as-little-damage-as-possible'.And yeah, people should do these battles on lower difficulties until they know how to dodge everything a boss does. The more you get dependent on Shielding attacks, the sooner you'll find yourself being killed while your character stands there stoned.
You have done it on Very Hard. Im sure. And if you haven't, you did it on mine when we went Co-op double meta-Knight, remember? WE really should do Intense sometime. Then i can say i got every trophy without NEEDING to use the hammersAha I havn't done Boss Battles on Intense yet, it's so hard!
I'm not even sure if I've done the one below intense
