If Bowser gets the Smash Ball and turns into Giga Bowser, do your best with dodgeing, you might as well land a hit or two while doing it because Giga Bowser can still take damage. If you're lucky, you could dodge well enough that you obtain hardly any damage.

In the end there is no way to "stop" Giga Bowser.

Wouldn't it be great if you could grab Giga and throw him.

*Bowser Morphs*
ROAAAR.
All of a sudden a hookshot comes from the left and grabs him!
"HYAAAAAAAAA" Link screams as he kicks him off the stage.

You never try to stop Giga Bowser, if anything allow Bowser to get the smash ballso you can gaze at Giga's beauty :p...giant, scaley beauty....

To stop Giga Bowser you need one thing; EXPANDING JIGGLYPUFF. She/it will simply push him off the stage (maybe).

Otherwise cry my friends

stole my joke and reworded it.

Two Final Smashes can't happen at the same time.

EPIC FAIL
I stole nothing. You said Giga Jigglypuff (imagined fan made monstrosity), I said expanding Jigglypuff (referring to Final Smash). Not the same thing.:mad:

You really serious about the Final Smash though? If that is the truth, that sucks like Captain Gannondorf!!

Don't flame please.

Using the advanced tactic of unplugging their controller. Works as long as you can run and win the rest of the match at the same time :)

I have come up with 2 ways to deal with giga bowser.

1. unplug the bowser players controller.
2. smash the wii with a hammer.

On a small stage, you are in big trouble.
(But you already were, confronting a heavy character with less space to take cover and dance)

On a bigger one, your best bet is to get away from him, because you probably won't be able to flinch him and if he hits you, you are probably headed out. Getting off the edge with a floatier character and ledge dancing may help a little, but not much.

If there's anything you can do to keep the Smash Ball out of Bowser's hands, do it. Bowsers will tend to use the Smash Ball right away on smaller stages.

Also, there are various items that can level this fight. Try throwing a Star Rod or mine at him. Hit him with the Home Run Bat. etc. Items almost always fall in favor of the quicker character, which is almost never Bowser.

I think it's funny that jigglypuff is probably the best character against gigabowser. Rising pound under the stage to stall and then get back up, easy. Also jiggs final smash is a little misunderstood at this point, she expands and anyone who gets inside her border box takes damage and then she screams and everyone real close takes a whole bunch of damage, I'd loooovvvveee to see gigajiggs vs giga bowser. in giant melee, with only smash balls and super mushrooms turned on, on battlefield

He’s huge! And tough!

What, you think just because he’s huge, you can needle him with lots of little attacks and keep him off balance? Heh heh... Yeah, you keep thinking that.



He must be invincible!

You can only be Giga Bowser for a short time, though, so you’d better take your enemies out while you can. Bear in mind, too, that while escaping from Giga Bowser, fighters might decide it’s a good strategy to pick off the stragglers in his wake...
I thought that he was invincible as it suggests from this Dojo quote?

i.e. countering and such will do no damage and also not even knock him back?

maybe tethering to the side of a stage and not recovering until it ends will work

although the bowser player will not stop saying "You must recover, get back on the stage so I can down smash you!!"
