Donkey Kong vs Charizard

In the matchup against Charizard, focus on using Donkey Kong's grab to build up damage, as his strong throws can lead to early KOs. Watch for Charizard's dash attacks and punish them with up-B out of shield, which can also serve as a great offensive option when you're in close quarters. Position yourself to bait out Charizard's aerial attacks, then use Donkey Kong's powerful aerials, like back air, to maintain stage control and apply pressure. Be mindful of Charizard's heavy hits and spacing; staying grounded can help you avoid getting caught by his flame breath and other projectiles.
