Bowser Jr. (SSB4)/Down throw

Hitbox visualization showing Bowser Jr.'s down throw.

Overview

Bowser Jr. throws the opponent onto the ground, then drills into them. The attack deals very low damage, being only .5% higher than up throw, dealing 7.5%. It also has no combo potential due to the high base knockback, thus making it his least used throw, as it is essentially a worse version of his forward throw, statistically. The only real use this throw has is to pressure the opponent into Clown Kart Dash, or as a last resort kill throw when forward throw is staled too much, as down throw has somewhat high knockback scaling.
