The '''Bowser Challenge''' is a challenge issued mostly to advanced players in certain [[tournament]]s, to beat a team of three {{SSBM|Bowser}}s on [[Fountain of Dreams]]. The goal is to see how many times the player can KO the Bowsers before losing. While the match can seem very lopsided due to Bowser's glaring weaknesses (especially against faster characters such as {{SSBM|Marth}} and {{SSBM|Fox}}), the match itself is considered extremely difficult to win, provided that the Bowser players are semi-competent. The idea for the challenge was originally developed by the [[Superfriends]] crew of Southern California, and posted by [[HugS]] in February 2005.

Even famed ''Melee'' player [[Ken Hoang]] was unable to beat a Bowser Challenge; at the same tournament, the closest player to winning only got 4 KOs, as {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}.  


There is no well-known equivalent to the Bowser Challenge in either ''SSB64'' or ''Brawl'', though the concept would be simple to carry across.
