He never runs in the middle, but always to the left or right. To dodge, swipe the other way. Those airships will spin then align in a certain manner. When the bullet bills (or whatever) come close to you, like really close that's when you strike: left if they are horizontal, up if they are vertical. When the spear guys come, start tapping where his legs would come on the screen, gives you an immediate start. When the energy orb from Bowser's minions comes don't strike too fast, wait for the ball to come close to you then strike. When he breathes fire swipe up as fast as you can, so you can catch the airship, any delay would burn you by the fire. When catching the airship, swipe down to jump on Bowser. If he is on the metal grate, he's gonna fall into the lava. He gets bigger and regens his strength after Finishing Bros, then he throws an orb at you. Keep striking to deflect it back to him, then he's gonna lose all his HP (after so long of losing and gaining HP? Trust me the whole game feels like this, you have to go through so much obstacles just to get the thing next to you!). When Star Driver comes, keep the 3ds steady and study the patterns - you need to make a move which dodges the moving obstacles so be careful. Then you finish by hitting Bowser again.
