It has to be a solid connect, but it can happen surprisingly often....Bowsers (and I guess Charizards) neutral B can do a solid 40+% damage I guess since it depends on how much of the move hits, it’d be hard to place on a list like this, but it can really hurt, especially against big, heavy characters.

I feel like Piranha Plant's poison breaths should definitely be on the list. Plant has the shield breaking moves to set it up AND it's the only move on the list that allows the character to grab and force the damage. Considering moves like Hero's Magic Burst is dependant on RNG and a full magic meter, not to mention every other slow, charge moves on the list being included regardless... the distinction feels quite arbitrary.

Tbh I don’t agree with the reasoning behind not including Incineroar. It’s a list about special moves, and the Revenge modifier is part of his options. Not only that, but it’s much easier to hit than things like reverse Warlock Punch or Magic Burst if the opponent was already shielding, since it’s a command grab. Same situation with Oomph/Psyche Up combined with Hero’s side B.
