Flying Slam



Flying Slam is Bowser's Side Special Move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, replacing the Koopa Klaw from Super Smash Bros. Melee. Koopa Klaw and Flying Slam are very similar, but the slam has one key difference: instead of either gnawing or throwing an enemy he grabs, Bowser performs a flying suplex on them, also gaining the ability to control where he lands. The enemy can, however, control the movement of the two, and fight back, depending on both the enemy's and Bowser's damage percentages. It is possible for Bowser to leap off the stage alongside his enemy, KO-ing both of them. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, two variants to Flying Slam were introduced: Dash Slam and Dash Claw (known as Dash Slash in PAL regions). Dash Slam involves Bowser lunging forward farther while jumping a shorter distance, while Dash Claw gives him a much farther lunge while removing the ability to grab and with weaker damage.
