What do you guys think is the most damaging move to bosses. What I mean by that is the move that can defeat bosses the quickest? My favorite is foxes Bair

Lucas's dtilt and PK Thunder are pretty good too.
Plus Lucas is way more fast and evasive than Charizard. PSI Magnet works on Master Hand and Duon too.

Lucas > Charizard.

Rock Smash works wonders, as does Laser spamming with the space animals.

Lucas, Charizard, Jigglypuff, and Toon Link are all effective in defeating bosses.

Meta Knight's NAir is the BEST move to defeat Bosses with. You can easily rise them to chain multiple NAirs together and added together the damage is massive. Afterward, just use Tornado so that you can finish them off. I used this method to clear Boss Battle Mode in a little over three minutes.

I'd have to say, on Intense, there isn't anything that damages them more than Charizard's Rock Smash. Several moves here listed come close, such as Lucas and Snake's attacks, but the Rock Smash is definitely the King of Boss Battles.... except v Tabuu, since he'll kill Charizard uber fast due to his size and slow speed, in which case, you need to switch to and fall back on Squirtle's Aerials.

Zelda's Fair and Bair are great against Bosses. Her reflector makes her even more worthwhile.

It leaves you vunerable in mid air too much... you freeze while performing it, giving the boss a free, and usually fatal hit. Or else the Knee and Zelda's Thunder-Kicks would have been uber. They might help you get the job done, but you have to be uber careful.

Yoshis dair sure is great, but it can leave you open for boss attacks. Although this thread isnt exactly how effective a move is, it could still be taken into account.

I dont play Boss Battles Intense much with Yoshi, but his uair is pretty good if I remember right.

Falcos bair is another effective damaging move, specially within a SH.

The Most damaging move to Bosses is Charizard's Rock Smash.
No Joke!
I cuncor with this guy, Charizords rock smash will inflick 40+ damage if it hits right and the boss' are so big that it'll ALWAYS hit right. If I'm mistaken about it hitting lemme know

The strongest one is Sonic's down B (aerial version)

Jump down B in the air, hold forward and you'll do 11+10+8+8+8 etc etc.

It multihits and considering how large the bosses are, it gets in alot of damage in a short amount of time.

That sounds rather interesting.

Kirbys hammer is another excellent move to use. By it I mean the aerial version, ofcourse.

Moves that are generally really punishable in competitive play work wonders against bosses imo. >_>

After making Rayquaza sleep, use a master ball and you just unlocked a new character.
In all honesty, just pogostick with Toon Link and it'll damage easily.

Just to add to the list:

Peach Bomber. Just spam it, and you'll ride up the boss on every hit. :bee:

Away from you.
1: damages when he gets a rock
2: damages when he smashes the rock
3: debris from the smashed rock causes damage
The most damaging move to a boss is Charizard's Rock Smash!
NO JOOOKA!

lol the best move is luigis shroyuken (if you could even get that thing to sweetspot)

but my guess would probrally be robs gyro thing. If you are conservative and keep on using it it does quite a bit of damage after a while. same with his up aerial. those are tabuu killers to me

Nope. Gyro barely does anything, and upair's fairly weak for a multihit move.
You'd be better off with a Wario dair + nair/waft combo.
