In the MarioAndLuigi series:

1. Two of Bowser X's attacks in Bowser's Inside Story.  One is where he becomes giant, chases you down and you have to dodge both fireballs being thrown at you and others you have to jump over while escaping him.  If you get hit three times, you get knocked out and he pretty much crushes you flat.  He also has an attack where he shoots fire, you hit it back, he turns into a fiery shell, drops a ton down from the sky that you have to hammer away, and then falls on you (I'd assume).

2. Dark Star/Dark Star X and it's cloning attack.  Generates five to seven copies of itself, then charges at each brother.  However, the copies turn INVISIBLE a short while before they reach your character, and long enough that you have to guess when to strike too.  Miss that attack, and you get hit quite hard, often by another copy following the first one.

3. The first attack used by Cackletta's soul in Superstar Saga.  Because if you don't dodge, you will die instantly due to having only one health at the start of the battle (beforehand, you get blown up by a time bomb and eaten after a HopelessBossFight).
