Brawl Attack
Brawl Attacks, originally called Special Attacks, are special moves that only appear in the game Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake. Bowser is able to use these, with each Brawl Attack using a certain amount of Special Points, or SP. Brawl Attacks even have a menu section in the star menu, where the player can watch demos and practice the attacks.
Bowser has a total of six Brawl Attacks that he gathers throughout the game. Like Mario & Luigi, Bowser has to unlock them in many areas of the game, though they are unlocked in a different way. To unlock these type of attacks for Bowser to use, the player must liberate Bowser's loyal, non-brainwashed troops. The player finds them in cages all around the Mushroom Kingdom. Out of the six, five of them would be found inside one of the cages. The last one is when the player collects all fifteen Blitties through the vacuum ability. Unlike Mario and Luigi's attacks, which use the 
and 
buttons respectively, Bowser's attacks use the Stylus and Touch Screen.

Trivia
- The top screen of Bowser's tutorials always show a lollipop-less Chuboomba being defeated by the acquired Brawl Attack. However, in normal battle conditions, Chuboombas flee once the lollipop is removed.
