Mario can [[List of actions#Picking Up Bowser|grab Bowser's tail]] with a special [[action]] called Picking Up Bowser. This action can be entered by [[diving]] into Bowser or by pressing B when having been near his tail and not having been too far from him since then, and can be done even if the A button is held. Mario then enters [[List of actions#Holding Bowser|Holding Bowser]] when swinging him and finally [[List of actions#Releasing Bowser|Releasing Bowser]] when throwing him. Bowser is a special type of grab called a [[rotational grab]], separate from [[light grab]] and [[heavy grab]]. He updates the [[HOLP]], but appears in front of Mario rather than at the HOLP when released.

* Teleport: Bowser briefly turns invisible and teleports near Mario.
 
* Dash: Bowser dashes towards Mario, typically when Mario is far from Bowser. If he passes Mario, he will slide to a stop. If he hits the edge of the map, he'll halt in place for a few seconds, giving Mario a chance to grab him.

* Jump: Bowser jumps high into the air, creating shockwaves on the ground when he lands.
* Dash: Bowser dashes towards Mario, similarly to the Bowser 2 fight.
* Dance: When Bowser has 1 HP remaining, he will dance, causing large chunks of the stage to fall away. Afterwards, the stage will be much smaller and in the shape of a star.
* Recover: If Bowser is thrown off the stage, he will jump back onto the stage. If he lands on a part of the stage that can fall from his dance attack, it will fall and he will jump forward again. When he lands on a part of the stage that cannot fall, he creates a shockwave.
